After actually reading the article I see they’re well-defined. Thanks for pointing me there ^^

Are the user levels an actual defined thing and are there more?

I think the “largely” only refers to the homogeneous part. I hope it does

Why not?

Getting an empty list in such a short time, an amazing technique!

I think open signups allow people to create an account without verification like email. I’m not sure about captchas, those might also count as a kind of verification.

A byte in this context always means 8 bit though, it has nothing to do with powers of 10 or 2. The prefix of K (kilo), M (mega), G (giga) or Ki (kibi), Mi (mebi), Gi (gibi) doesn’t change the meaning of “byte”.

How does the UI size work out for you? I recently took a look at it on a windows pc and the tiny size of most things is the one problem I have with it. Then again, I read something about being able to scale different programs individually somewhere (not for windows though)

I was about to say that I’d prefer alien overlords but based on Superman’s origin, he’s got my vote

I’ve seen some people talking about how the lemmy developers are planning for the ability to “group” communities (of the same name or something like that) on different instances together.
I’m taking this as those communities then forming one community that doesn’t have to rely on a single instance’s community to “survive”.
Haven’t put too much thought into this but I think that would at least lessen that problem, especially for new niche subjects popping up. The difficulty for existing niche communities starting anew here will probably remain but I’m hopeful for the future.

Kinda reminds me of this mystery show I can’t recall the name of :))
I’d love to see a book or even just a “small” web series though. You probably amassed quite some experience on how to write characters to make them feel close to reality.
