    We say to ‘nuke it’.

    So it’ll be like oh I got to nuke this pizza for a minute.

      I only heard that term when I moved to the Midwest. One of many odd things they say.

      Part of ongoing boycotting/protest efforts to reduce the influence of .ml comms because of the behavior of the .ml instance admins to make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate.

        Ah. That post is yours too. Thats a lot of effort! Good job on that. Good bit of research there.

        I’ll check my history on the instance. Bc I’m pretty sure I’ve skipped lemmy.world communities to go to lemmy.ml

        Having said that. You good with the replacement being lemmy.world? I’ve never been a fan.

          Thanks! I generally try to avoid .world comms myself when cross-posting, not because I think they’re being toxic like .ml, but just for general health and decentralization of the Lemmy-verse

          But with asklemmy, it’s a bit of an odd spot, there was !ask@lemm.ee I was starting to crosspost to but ya know, .ee shutdown, so they’ve moved over to !ask@piefed.social but uptake has been very slow IMO even compared to when I was starting to crosspost to the .ee version, maybe it’s a federation issue?

          So now I’m trying to go for a “little bit here and a little bit there” approach lol

          For .ml’s shittyasklemmy though !shittyasklemmy@lemmy.uhhoh.com is my go-to

            Sad to see lemm.ee go, biggest loss since lemmy.film. that one was mysterious and disappointing. This is only disappointing.

            I wonder if someone figured out what happened to .film

            Yeah piefed is odd. Idk what it is but federation there has always been weird.

            I disliked how everything was on world. If world closes down Lemmy is fucked. But the last straw for me was the anti piracy stance they took. With that it was goodbye. I still post a lot on some of those communities but simply for the sake of Lemmy users as a whole.

              I just hope whoever owns the .ee domain keeps it renewed or passes it to someone else. .film didn’t and because it had traffic on it those domain name vultures have it now and want a ridiculous amount of money for it

              Didn’t the .world admins reverse course on the piracy thing? I could have sworn I read a thread where they talked about not blocking it anymore

                Yes the lemm.ee admins seem to be ending it cleanly. I expect they will be responsible with this.

                .world went back and forth and back and forth and eventually blocked it (unless smth changed in my inactive months)

    Either “heat it up in the microwave” or “throw it into the microwave.”

    Outside of the more usual “microing” (not in English though, sounds a bit wonky in English but less so in our language), we do use “nuking” a lot.
