Google execs admit users are ‘not quite happy’ with search experience after Reddit blackouts
  • Just seeing this for the first time also, but one of the features they list is it looks like you can "block or boost" domains in your search results. I miss when Google let you block domains for results, so this would be a killer feature for me. I don't mind paying, but just the pricing seems a bit odd. I could see myself paying $5 per month for unlimited searches, not sure if 300 or 1000 is enough, $25 per month for unlimited is crazy.

  • Subscriber count on federated magazines not accuretely shown
  • I asked this question on one of my Lemmy alts (still playing around if I prefer lemmy or kbin) and what I was told is the stats you are seeing when you view an external instance are the subscribers from YOUR instance. So you are viewing a lemmy.world magazine/community through kbin, the 92 is kbin subscribers for that community. To get the real number you need to view the stats on the original instance (the 1000 you saw).

    I think its a pretty big flaw with the fediverse software right now and I think should be a priority fix (if it is at all possible to do that). Makes magazines/communities look inactive when you are searching for them on your instance if they are external. It drives people away from subscribing (I know it did me when I didn't understand it at first) when you do a search on your instance as you just think there is no activity and don't even bother clicking it. I imagine it would get pretty extreme if you host your own private lemmy or kbin and when searching for things to subscribe to on your instance, everything looks empty.

    Any way to have more specific searches?

    Is there a way in kbin to search specific magazines when looking for information? Looks like you can set specific communities or if its a post or comment using Lemmy, but the search on kbin is just a single text field.

    How would i know when Lemmy has updated?
  • Another way you can check is using FediDB. Just search the server you are curious about and it will tell you the software and its version. Also a good way to see other interesting stats about the instance.

  • My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999 Season 1 Episode 13 Discussion
  • Great ending. Could be seen for a mile away, but still a satisfying conclusion for the show. Gonna miss seeing Akane and her reactions, they were always hilarious to see.

  • Tengoku Daimakyou • Heavenly Delusion - Episode 13 discussion - FINAL
  • Very enjoyable show overall. Had great style and atmosphere with an intriguing story. Love the dynamic between Maru and Kriuku, such good chemistry. Think I might continue the story through the Manga, don't think I can wait for next season.

  • What does everyone think of BattleBit Remastered?
  • @InduperatorRex I have been having a blast. I though I would end up refunding it, but so far I got 10 hours and I want to keep playing. It gets more fun as you play as more weapons start to unlock for you giving you something to look forward to as you progress.
