lol. I’m the one who coined the term after Wadsworth came up with the concept!
Compared to what? A flat rate?
It’s like they took 32 individual interior design students, put them in a blender, then sprayed them in separate rooms.

Significant Brother
My city in AZ just passed an ordinance that requires any short term rentals to have a permit, the owner must be able to respond to the property within 60 minutes, AND there must be a verified neighbor reachable 24 hours of the day and verified.
That should put a significant dent in landlord rent seeking behavior.
A reasonable, thoroughly-explained warning from the stewards?!? Why don’t we just head down to the Winchester and grab a pint!
I lean to the right in my political views yet I do not exhibit any of the behaviors that you are subscribing to an entire population. Consider being more exact with your words lest you alienate people with vitriol.
This is my favorite post.
Every population follows a standard, normal distribution curve. At the tips of this curve are the trailblazers (who left and came to lemmy) and the opposite side who feel as passionate about staying as we did about leaving.
Now that we’ve moved the 3 rd standard deviation off of Reddit, the curve has shifted and the opposite deviation is amplified.
This is to be expected when you have a population-level shift in any observed population. :)
Yeah, but not really. You couldn’t create r/Doug twice. You could create r/Dougs or r/Dougie, but not two r/Doug. Here, you can create a “Doug” for every server that exists.
I have hope for solutions though. There’s only about 8,000 active subreddits in total. The cream will rise to the top quickly and we’ll all get used to subscribing to the ‘top 3 or 4’ “Doug” communities and I’m sure the apps developed for Lemmy will ‘combine’ those behind the scenes for a smoother user experience.
Why is Tumblr getting the credit when it’s an XKCD comic that has the message, not the platform.
