Lemmy and mastodon are not really connected, I don’t know about the others. I would focus on one protocol (is that the right term here?) and show different instances. I’m not on lemmy to follow mastodon users, it’s a very different concept

Is his first name John or Join?

Isn’t it technically a different backend that’s compatible with lemmy’s interface?

Is mbin the same as kbin and is it still a thing? I remember hearing about it at the beginning but now everyone is on lemmy or am I missing something?

Is it a c/bananaforscale banana? Because it’s not a good one

Sure, there are ways but I honestly don’t see the benefit now that streaming is fast. I want to watch a movie or series once and don’t need to own it, especially since I can restream it or download it from the streaming site

It was the goto streaming site back then. We all learned out lesson once it was down. I looked it up and it was online from 2008 to 2011, feels longer for me but I was torrenting alot before that. German law is strict on torrenting so streaming is the way to go here.

Your analysis fits neatly into what the book Because Internet describes as different waves of “internet people”. First were geeks who went there before it was mainstream, second us millennials growing up as it is getting mainstream, alongside older folks forced to use it at work or voluntarily at home. Third wave are GenZ growing up when everything is easy already and, ironically, also even older folks now that it’s accessible for them.

Boy, I remember how desperate all of Germany was when kino.to went down. It took at least a week until everyone found an alternative!

If I were Max, i would try to get rid of the nameplate or even better change it to something else

To each their own I guess
