Brother, the general population in Arkansas is not even smart enough to change their Wi-Fi password, let alone use a VPN.

That's kinda what happens when you say "we're gonna protest for 2 whole days then go back to normal" lol. All Reddit execs and admins had to do was sit on their hands for 2 days and not say anything.
It's hilarious that whoever came up with the 2 day blackout thing thought that would make any bit of difference.
This is one thing that Lemmy REALLY needs to work on. The hobby- and topic-specific communities need to grow. Lemmy is currently dominated by like 5-10 communities, which is fine, but it really falls short of the experience I had on Reddit in that regard.
It was an event where one user can change the color of a single pixel at a time, choosing from a set color palette. There was a cooldown on how often you were allowed to color a pixel, 5 minutes or something, I don't remember.
It was a fun way for communities to band together and draw pixel art over the course of a week or so. It was fun the first time because it was spontaneous and there weren't very many bots, if any. After that, it was just a competition of who paid for the most bot accounts so they could camp a space to keep a clear picture. Completely lost its draw IMO (no pun intended).

Just FYI, Tildes is run by one (1) dude with a full time job and a family. From what I read, the guy refers to himself as the God of Tildes or something to that effect which I think tells you everything you need to know about how it's managed.
Don't expect it to ever reach the popularity or capacity of Lemmy or Reddit.
I am looking forward to only having to push a fury generator 9 times instead of 10.
I look forward to reading many posts here.
Why did you guys make this community lol
"Stop talking about Elon Musk"
makes an entire community about him
How about we don't talk about it at all?
A shorter than 40 hour work week would be the biggest draw.
According to a study conducted by Zippia.com (1,000 full-time workers), the average worker is only productive for a little over 4 hours per day, with productivity capping out at 6 hours. This article on studyfinds.org references another 2,000 employee study done by OnePoll (no link given) that says "A new survey finds office workers are at their most productive by 10:22 a.m. each morning — but start to slump by 1:27 p.m."
Letting employees who commute to the office every day work 30 hours per week instead of 40 would be a HUGE draw for a lot of people. Less traffic on the commute, less "fluff" time where you're not doing anything, time to take care of personal errands during the week while businesses are still open, and I'm sure other benefits.
