Fair. I certainly had to resurrect WTH loss meant when I joined Lemmy. I was more thinking the Venn diagram of people still clinging to Loss, and people on Lemmy is probably not a perfect circle. But who knows.

Yep, this. In a couple places on the image at least. Thank you for connecting the lines and dots.
To answer your question, the loss meme started almost immediately after the original comic was released. It ebbs and flows in popularity, but seems to be something the internet can’t let go of. Lemmy has a particular fetish for it.
LycanGalen@lemmy.worldto Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.@slrpnk.net•UK first European country to approve lab-grown meat, starting with pet food3·10 months agoA decent chunk of the meat used for pet food comes from pieces humans won’t eat (obvs. different by region and culture), so would go to waste anyway. Lab grown meat is cool, but I’m worried we won’t get accurate reporting on environmental impact. “This is how much meat we produced” implying benefit vs. “This is how many fewer cows/chickens/etc. were bred and slaughtered for pet food” which can be used to calculate methane and ammonia reductions, etc.
LycanGalen@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Spotify is raising the cost of Premium subscriptions, againEnglish1·1 year agoSounds like they missed some QA testing for your device or something. That sucks.
I do notice that the recommended music at the end of a playlist tends to skew more to whatever the last song was, rather than overall vibe of the playlist. Assuming it didn’t end on a really annoying song, though, I don’t personally mind changing directions a little. That said, can completely appreciate their algorithms not working for everyone.
I do think they’ve been working on improving the algorithms though, as they are definitely not as wonky as they were when I first joined a couple years ago. Nice to know at least some of my payment is going towards improving the platform, unlike Spotify, where it’s going towards buying podcasts I don’t want to listen to.
I pay for the annual subscription, so Deezer is still cheaper for me by about $2/month, but I’m glad you’ve found what you’re looking for in Tidal. And thanks for humoring my curiousity.

LycanGalen@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Spotify is raising the cost of Premium subscriptions, againEnglish3·1 year agoTake a look at Deezer, too. It’s what I went with because it offers high fidelity FLAC audio for paid subscriptions, and integrates with Google home voice commands, which Tidal didn’t when I was looking.
Seconding Skarn’s comment. Heliboard has a lot of options for what is and is not displayed, shortcuts, etc. If you can’t get it the way you want it through the options, a feature in settings allows you to edit the scripting for the layout. I have all the punctuation to the left of the space bar so I don’t put periods between each word. It took me no more than 10 mins to configure that, including wasting time backing up the original script (it has an option to return it to defaults), and I’m a “hobbyist” progammer at most.
