I mean you can try and call them by their state but really we’re just American. And we’re selfish enough we claim it exclusively and let other countries in the americas go by their country name or add extra details to the America term

Didn’t Google try replace email a decade ago with Wave?
Followed by sonic and knuckles, and sonic 3.
I have an instagram account with 0 posts because it’s the only way to find out what’s going on in town.
I got lemmy to replace Reddit but I find myself going back to check on the local subreddit since they have no interest yet in moving here. When Narwall finally stops working I imagine I’ll stop using Reddit altogether.
The kitchen scale is super useful if you ever start making bread products. That said I avoid the scale for myself. Too depressing.
Usenet is worth every penny
I agree with a number of these complaints. I’m migrating over from reddit and I’m having a number of issues similar to what was posted.
Here’s my experience.
OK the blackout started, I moved Apollo and Narwall to page 2 of my phone so I don’t muscle memory click on them. I google lemmy because that’s what people were talking about switching too before the blackout. I get linked to a page that says lemmy is a bunch of instances and it doesn’t matter which one you join. ok… but which one do I join? I goto the instance page and sort by which server has the most users and is in my country. Beehaw it is I guess. Let’s sign up. Oh there’s a form you have to answer questions about why you fit here and a human is going to approve me (still waiting on that one). Lets see which one has open registration, Lemmy.World. I try registering and it just spins (still does, tried it again today in firefox, safari, and edge). OK well lets keep trying until we get one to work (lemmynsfw.com was the winner at the time and since then I got an account at https://sh.itjust.works).
OK I’m in and I’m on a NSFW instance but I’m looking for technology, news, and politics. OK communities ALL, which technology do I join (Beehaw, lemmy.ml, midwest.social)?
It took me almost a day to get setup and the top search results on the issues I was facing all linked to reddit pages I wasn’t going to click on.
I’m setup now and looking forward to things getting sorted out (there will be clear winners we all migrate to). I really don’t understand the benefit of being federated. I honestly would prefer a single site that’s a nonprofit similar to wikipedia but I’ll be using this for now.
If you are east of the front range cities it pretty much is the Midwest. That makes up about 42% of the state. Seems accurate to me.
