Thank you for expressing this so eloquently!

I got an old server from work sitting around at home doing nothing. Seriously thinking about hosting my own instance on it

A part of the problem are zoning and parking space laws preventing businesses to open up where people live. If you cant be close to residential areas and have to have an insane number of parking spaces it is hard to operate a shop in small towns.

Its surprising how well bikes can work in harsh winter conditions, if the infrastructure is well build. Not just Bikes has a video on Oulu in Finnland that does this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uhx-26GfCBU&t=1s

In german “All” is used as a translation for “space” Its really fitting for a place where all the different instances merge into one universe.

So far it seems like a lot of the non technerd side of reddit is missing, things like diy ore Brewing dont seem to be hear yet (or i just didnt find them)

If you engaged with content on the regular you were most likely not a net negativ. Never forget that the content we create is what makes the plattform valuable. Without content no users, without users no add and no moneys

Welp, that means i ma more likely to stay here. I am interested to see where this will be going
