This is not about houses

The second seems to forget that there are many, many rooms full of the same thing.

- And not all the rooms are connected because some people don’t like some of the other people on the doors.
and that thing? racism
- I was thinking the same memes and news, over and over again.

Also user:

I like my mediocre house that I’ve lived in for years. Sure there may be some rotting boards and I don’t like the way the neighborhood is changing with all the new billboards, but it still feels like home.
That other house may have a lot more doors and windows but it’s out in the sticks. Not all the utilities have been connected yet. It’s hard to find a bike lane and I can’t even get NFL Sunday Ticket over there.
Even in the sticks, the house is in a left leaning town. My word, some of them don’t wear bras! And some of them even own tanks!

It looks promising though! Maybe I’ll get a little plot over there as a second home.

Great sales pitch but you're lacking a bit:

"If you enter through the side door, you won't be able to cook anything because it defederated from the kitchen and if you use the most popular door, you can't sleep because the bedrooms have blocked you."

"and the front door, leading to the most rooms, has been removed from the map by the makers of the house because they prefer you to use the side door that goes to their room"

- Yeah, why is that? I noticed that.

First one should read "A house that is a long sewage tube that never ends, filled with bots where you wade through knee-deep AI slop, dodge barely sentient sociopaths, and teenagers using slurs as "trolling" where only the most arrogant do well.

This describes some Lemmy instances as well tbh:-P

User: And how exactly many doors (with different addresses and locks!) are better than a single one?

Also user: Free choice is so confusing… My brain hurts!
- Bah we can only chose 2 options in Canada. If you suggest more you’re an extremist!

When I joined Lemmy, the map of the entrances was in a GitHub repository, and you had to pass a vibe check at whatever door you chose. The first door I chose suddenly disappeared a month later and I had to find a different door and wear a different hat when I come in.

The rooms you can see changes depending on which door you walk in through. The door I use now doesn't like wallpaper and so none of the rooms appear to have any. There's also a distinct lack of all the leg lamps that I hear people who come in through other doors complaining about. I've found a handful of rooms dedicated to different kinds of leg lamps, but only if I track them down and map them so I can find those rooms again later. And many of the rooms only have one or two pieces of furniture in them as well.

The first time I find a room that's a quarter of an inch bigger than the dimensions of the house would allow, I'm selling this house of leaves-ass place and never looking back.

https://piefed.blahaj.zone/ could be a better place. PieFed has better filter features
- I appreciate the recommendation, but that was just a jab at how the comparison in the meme really doesn't work because trying to describe the Fediverse as a house results in a non-Euclidian house right out of a horror movie or something.

In my Father's house there are many rooms...

If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going.” Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.”

Oh it's about IKEA

It's called choice paralysis.

Would you honestly want people here who can't understand (checks notes) how "email" works?

Seriously, doing a DuckDuckGo or Kagi search would answer so many questions that do not need to be continually posted to a community over and over just to help foster "engagement" stats...

Also I doubt the complexity is the real reason - they just enjoy the comfortable and familiar, so that's what they do, regardless of whatever they say.

I want enough people here so I don't have to keep !football@sopuli.xyz , the community about the most popular sport on the planet, active with less than five other active users
Same for !movies@piefed.social and !lego@piefed.social
If we have to make 50 comparisons to find one that works for people, so be it
- At what point is that a solution looking for a need rather than the other way around? Of course it is more complicated than that - people won't come unless they see it already, but they can't participate unless it exists already.
  What if you consolidated football, fútbol, hockey, etc. into a "sports" community? And movies + TV + videos into a "media entertainment" one? And LEGO et al. into "toys"? Fortunately PieFed offers an incredible amount of support for fragmentation of communities with multiple tools.:-)
- I just subscribed to the football one for shits, giggles and to help a bro out

You will be banned for the most mundane and petty shit by powermods in both houses.

We need to spread the message (for people who don't suck)

If you can get the house key in the first place. Setup an alt account to troubleshoot a thing, took me SEVEN fucking tries.

Can't speak for the rest, but Lemmy on a vanilla PC and Firefox is a pain in the ass. Intermittent glitches, permanent issues, outages, I can go on and on. Most people simply won't put up with it.
