I’m ashamed to say I’m still using Reddit

Perhaps subscribe to communities that aren’t for porn!

I think the problem with your suggestion is that NSFW-ness more of a spectrum.

• Memes are NSFW if you’re under micromanagement and time pressure.
• Porn is NSFW if you’re working in a childcare centre.

Meanwhile both are SFW if you’re in your pyjamas and working from home.

I’m less driven by philosophy and more driven but whatever is available to use via my phone apps

Reddit quality has markedly deteriorated in my opinion.

Maybe it’s just my imagination.

Basically everything works but the content is less engaging!

Yeah I mostly jumped headfirst into Affinity because it wasn’t subscription based!

Not for us Liftoff savages sadly

When in Rome…

So sad the Affinity suite isn’t on Linux

I had a burst of activity on Lemmy and then slowly wound down to mostly lurking.

Not sure why. Maybe Apollo dying tomorrow will kick me again to participate

Some people love it, namely the ones that have most to gain.

So business owners, and extremely attractive waitstaff

It’s WAY faster than sharing an instance with normies. Think of it as your own personal caching server.

As for payment, you sign up to a VPS provider and give them your credit card, and pay for the usage.

Are you skilled with SQL? Everything should be working off the DB state so you just need to sift through and edit your user record

I’m talking about Loopring itself

This is a great point.

I’ve recovered from my Bitcoin maxi days, so I hope things move forward in the industry (namely, the normies learning about ETH)

Thanks! I recommended adding it to OP so others can find it.

If its UI based, it won’t actually be too hard for someone from community to add the tools. Here’s hoping!

Ah that would be make sense, but most people wouldn’t see the point in running a node. People automatically think of “mining” or “validator”

I tried to like Loopring, but their L2s were hardcoded circuits rather than zkEVM which the Polygon and Matterlabs team (and Starkware to a lesser extent) are pushing ahead with this year. Allowing the community of third party developers to contribute value (sound familiar Reddit?) is going to make the whole L2 space to gangbusters.

As it stands now you can’t do much with Loopring except what the first party devs have built, which is basically a standard excahnge.

DeFi has added some real value for both project creators and users, not just for myself. I’m not talking about the ‘money making, profit driven’ side of value either, but utility, capital efficiency, flexibility, new financial primitives as well.

All sorts of crazy innovation that you shouldn’t just hand-wave away as a scam or redundant.

I guess it depends on your time-frame and your risk profile. BTC/ETH over the medium term has done much better than pretty much any other asset in the world. Altcoins didn’t even factor into my brain when I made that comment.

I appreciate the scale of the problem you guys are having now, but are there specific limitations that you’re hitting that you can clarify on? Is it moderation tools, specific scaling strategies, etc?

With more information the more technically minded among us might be able to help.
