I like the “edit:” append if I edited something, just to make it clear for whoever comes later.

What’s the problem with it?

From their FAQ

I thought it was obvious sarcasm, but oh well

Keep using Windows!

Yup, me too. Jerboa for the first few weeks, tried Thunder, but it is still an unfinished work, so as Connect.

Trying Liftoff since earlier today and so far looks like the best. Really enjoying it.

Okay, so cat is all I need, right?

…right?

Others have already mentioned man grep or grep help

But, in case you don’t know about it, there are two great utilities to get examples and help for almost any given command: tldr and cheat are great.

Just cheat grep or tldr grep and you’re good to go :)

Yeah, I’m committed as well, and you’re right about your input.

A few notes in my mind, tho:

1 - Reddit became really mainstream, yeah, but I figure a huge part of the user base were tech people. Probably work in tech somehow.

2 - those who came to Lemmy/kbin already are also tech people, I figure. Right now, I think it is just normal that the first to pull the trigger are in tech. It’s not too friendly to the average user (despite the forum format really not being what the average user goes after today)

3 - these people will start to contribute to the development, even if not providing actual code and developing apps or creating their instances, most will post issues about their user experience and will have valuable input about the platform.

4 - I think the true take off of the Fediverse will come once content creators start to post their content in here. And I expect the first of them, at least, to also be tech content creators.

I’ll try to encourage some of the guys I follow, mainly course creators, to invest a bit in the Fediverse. Some of them already do. I know that Twitter puts food on their table, but it should be easy to automate and crosspost to Mastodon, for example.

I hate social media overall. It’s not really hatred, I just don’t use most of them, don’t find the motivation and don’t really value what they have to offer me. I think Instagram sucks for searching anything (who would say searching pictures would be hard, huh?).

I, for one, started lurking on Reddit because of fantasy football. Reddit was really good as a link and content aggregator, and I got most of my news from there. But it depends on Twitter as well, since the reports mainly come from there. And you see where the problem is at? Most of the people who advocate for the Fediverse don’t really use Twitter as well.

So I can only dream of the day Ian Rapopport will post some breaking news to Mastodon and a bot will auto-crosspost it to /c/fantasyfootball.

A man can hope about this ideal future.

Edit: JESUS FUCKING CHRIST, I DIDN’T REALIZE MASTODON HAS 7 MILLION USERS ALREADY

We’re sticking to the Fediverse as well so
