Fediverse won't replace Reddit as long as Lemmy is the main platform being promoted
  • Because we saw what happens with Reddit. People come in claiming to be “moderate”, and very quickly shit like T_D starts popping up. Also center of the road politics in the US has had rights taken away from millions of people in just the past year, and it’s going to continue to erode them from more. I’m not telling you to change your political stance, but I am telling you that people see them as an attack because they have literally been attacked by “moderates”.

  • What Fast Food do you love?
  • Aside from ultra-local burger place, it’s Del Taco. I used to be exclusively Taco Bell, but for the past 5 years or so it’s been the reverse. Deal Taco tasted better, better variety and loads their tacos up with more ingredients.

  • Teaching Maths!
  • 9 and 10 year olds lack the understanding or ability adjust for differently sized wholes.

    Ok, I misspoke when I said it’s not testing for reasonableness. It’s what I get for commenting right after waking up. The reasonableness it’s checking for is can the students understand what makes the situation true. That the wholes are different sized. It’s not a poorly worded problem, the teacher just doesn’t know what they are doing.

    Source: again, I teach this scenario every year and the students figure it out every year.

  • Teaching Maths!
  • This isn’t testing reasonableness. This is testing to see if a student understands that to properly compare fractions the wholes have to start as equivalent.

    Source: I use questions similar to this every year because if I don’t get some real funky diagrams.

  • Teaching Maths!
  • It’s a pretty common problem in 4th/5th grade. I wouldn’t say it’s common core. It’s just making sure students know that to properly compare fractions the wholes need to begin as the same size.

  • It's just pathetic now
  • I see any “announcement” by Reddit as pathetic attempts to regain legitimacy. Ain’t gonna happen. If Spez is fired and all connections to him are severed I might sniff around Reddit again. But it would be like getting a drink with an ex you’re over. I wouldn’t be there to rekindle anything, just morbidly curious how big of a dumpster fire they are.

  • Is Kbin lemmy? I’m so confused!

    Kbin is the first Reddit alternative I looked at and i liked the UI so I stuck with it. I kind of assumed everything would be kbin. I thought I understood things. I thought it was kbin and lemmy separate but they federated and so I’d be able to access lemmy stuff from kbin. Which I guess is true. But now I’m confused. I look at all, and I see a post in m/[email protected] and the post is from lemmy.world and it’s devs. I’m not subbed to m/main, so did Ernest curate /all and add it? Are people cross posting from lemmy into sh.itjust.works? I feel like I need a drawing or red string diagram.
