Ah, I missed it again! And just by a few hours. Is there some kind of mailing list or something to sign up for to find out when this happens? Since I gave up Reddit and YouTube I am way out of the loop on these things. Would have picked up several titles too, since it’s been a couple years…

I watched four films this week, all of which I’d seen before (so clearly I quite like them all):

• It Happened One Night (1934)
• Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)
• Foreign Correspondent (1940)
• 21 Jump Street (2012)

Really tough to choose one, but would probably have to give the nod to Mr Smith. Jimmy Stewart is just too good.

as long as the community is created on a larger instance it should show up when users sort by all within that instance

This is an issue for communities that are on smaller instances, and with the current algorithm it’s like a brick wall trying to break through to feeds of users on the big instances. For example, the most active college football community is !cfb@fanaticus.social but the abandoned community on lemmy.world keeps gaining subscribers (even with no content).

As a whole, niche-driven instances (e.g. sport, film, literature, aviation) and geography-focused instances (e.g. midwest, dmv) just aren’t gaining much traction.

Greed has often been described as equally evil to hate. As Robert Frost put it:

Some say the world will end in fire,

Some say in ice.

From what I’ve tasted of desire

I hold with those who favor fire.

But if it had to perish twice,

I think I know enough of hate

To say that for destruction ice

Is also great

And would suffice.
