This John Hussman, the guy that continually predicted a crash during the strongest bull run in stock market history?
2010: “Investors dangerously underestimate the risk of an abrupt and possibly severe equity market plunge.”
2011: “the expected return/risk profile of the stock market has shifted to hard-negative.”
2012: “The present menu of investment opportunities continues to be among the worst in history.”
2013: “stock returns prospectively are very low.”
2014: “What concerns us beyond valuations is the full ensemble of overvalued, overbought, overbullish conditions.”
2015: “Exit now.”
2016: “current extremes imply 40-55 percent market losses…. These are not worst-case scenarios, but run-of-the-mill expectations.” 2017: “the most broadly overvalued moment in market history.”
2018: “The music is fading out, and a trap-door has opened up in the floor, but they’re still dancing.”
2019: “a projected 50-65 percent market loss over the completion of this cycle is actually somewhat optimistic.”

Can you link to a process for purging bot accounts?
To start -- apologies for the extended downtime. I ran into several issues with the server, but was finally able to get it back up, and upgraded on the newest release of Lemmy. Thank you to everyone for the patience while I worked through it! I've been working on some major updates related to Wirebase. I'll come back in the next day with an announcement.

That can't be real - there is no better option for <10mbps?

This is super helpful, thanks! I’m also in the market for one of these 3.
My fiancé and I really enjoy Space Realms, and we’ve played a decent amount of Dominion. She isn’t into games with large setup/tear down, and we have a 1 year old which makes finding time challenging.
Which of the three do you think we should consider?

I absolutely love pho, but when I went to Vietnam I ate Bun Cha constantly. Soooo good.

This is the only correct answer if you are right handed, as it is the most efficient to easily look at your phone screen.

Take a look at this how-to post! The bottom sections are focused on adding communities: https://wirebase.org/post/3019
TL;DR: you have to search by URL the first time you add a community. After doing that once, it will appear on Wirebase permanently!

I'm looking for others who could be interested in collaborating on hosting Fediverse platforms and tooling, including Lemmy. The main incentive for this is to build out infrastructure that is super reliable -- highly available, geo-diverse, monitoring, best practices, etc, and to have fun doing it with a group of people rather than solo. We can help contribute towards the shift that is happening from centralized/corporate-owned to decentralized/non-profit. Some of the biggest barriers for services like Mastodon and Lemmy are related to performance, reliability, confusing onboarding, etc. By grouping up we can help improve on these, innovate on tooling and systems that are service-adjacent, and have fun doing it. Shoot me a PM if interested! Edit: thanks for all of the responses! Since posting, many people have responded or reached out directly with interest in getting involved. We have set up Matrix.org channels. You can join here: https://matrix.to/#/#fedicollective:matrix.org
Hi all. Very happy to see Lemmy’s success so far. I’m interested in contributing to Lemmy’s growth. At this stage, the engineering team should consider bringing some additional public-facing structure, such as: 1. Published roadmap 2. Performance metrics and reporting 3. Community outreach - keeping user base in the loop on roadmap, launches, metrics, growing pains Lemmy will continue to grow regardless, however bringing some structure will onboard new users faster and add trust to Lemmy’s image. Trust factor is important - Reddit refugees are evaluating alternatives to Reddit, and are ultimately choosing off relatively little information. What is the best way to get involved in new initiatives for Lemmy? I have experience with this type of work (engineering manager at a large tech company), focused on building teams, product roadmaps, and continually improving customer experiences through engineering.

Small update tonight. I provisioned email for Wirebase, which will now unblock a couple features: - Password resets are now possible through Settings - New sign-ups will require email verification (this wasn’t possible before)
A Matrix server was spun up to chat about Wirebase usability, issues, and for general discussion. Matrix is a federated live chat platform. You can learn more about it at matrix.org. To join Wirebase Chat, [click here](https://matrix.to/#/#lemmy:wirebase.org).
Heads up that the server was just upgraded from 0.17.4 to 0.18.0, the release that came out yesterday! Release notes on the patch can be found here: https://join-lemmy.org/news/2023-06-23_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.18.0
# What is Lemmy? Lemmy is a discussion platform similar to Reddit. Users create posts, post pictures, make comments, and group up in "communities" to exchange ideas and talk about topics they are interested in. ## How do you sign up for Lemmy? You can sign up at [wirebase.org/signup](https://wirebase.org/signup). That's the Lemmy server that this post is on. Unlike Reddit, anyone can host a Lemmy server. All Lemmy servers talk to each other (a "mesh"), so regardless of which server you sign-up for, you'll be able to participate in worldwide discussions. ## How do you use Lemmy? After signing-up, you'll want to find "Communities" that you're interested in. These are like subreddits from Reddit. To find one, first click "[Communities](https://wirebase.org/communities)" on the top menu bar, and type in the search bar. If the community you're looking for is listed, then great -- you can open it and start reading and commenting on posts. If the Community you're interested in isn't listed, then it most likely exists, but has not yet been added to [wirebase.org](https://wirebase.org) (or whichever server you're using). Subscribing to a new Community is straight forward (next section). ## How do I find and add new Communities (subreddits) on Lemmy? To add a Community, you need to: (1) Search for the Community; (2) Copy its address, and; (3) Enter the Community address. Keep in mind that you only need to do this one time, ever. **1. Finding Lemmy Communities:** The easiest way to find Communities is by going to [browse.feddit.de](https://browse.feddit.de). On this site, you can search globally for a Community you are interested in. If there are multiple servers hosting the same Community topic, then you should add the one at the top with the most subscribers (this will be the most active). **2. Copy Community Address:** After finding a Community, just click on the "copy address" button (image below).  **3. Add the Community:** On [wirebase.org](https://wirebase.org), on the Community screen, enter the address which you copied in the last step into the search bar (it's a URL). This adds the Community to the server. Refresh the Communities page and it will now appear. ## How do I subscribe to a Lemmy Community? To subscribe to a Lemmy Community, just go to the [Community page](https://wirebase.org/communities), search for it, then hit "subscribe" on the right side.
