isn’t the subscriber count badge useless now since Lemmy fixed their reporting of that?

You're not wrong but "fixed" is a subjective term in this case. Two of the largest instances, https://lemmy.world and https://sh.itjust.works, have yet to "upgrade" past 0.19.3, like many other instances that prefer not to be on the cutting-edge. Nevertheless, the linked shield.io badges may also give other information and not strictly the soon-to-be-redundant "total subscribers" badge.

Ask your admin to turn it off

Thanks, I believe that's exactly what he did.

Why, that's easy. They were voted into their roles of representation. Not by me, of course. I'm in a different district.

Here to add that, thanks to this jumping-bean bug, crossposting is difficult: once you confirm to which community to crosspost, focus is lost, the page jumps to the top and the post title and any URL are lost. Ouch!

@oleorun@real.lemmy.fan (or anybody, really), if you do file a bug report, would you mind posting the Github link? Thanks!

Thanks anyway. 🤝

Thanks for investigating. I apologize if I'm being obtuse but are you saying you can see/load !music@midwest.social from lemmy.ml? Because I still can't (I just checked again for the bazillionth time).

Again, from lemmy.ml.

I don't know. Maybe ask the cleverly named @DessertStorms@kbin.social?

[-] raoulraoul@midwest.social 3 points 6 months ago

Thank you for that, sincerely. Not to be headstrong—you are technically correct, I had parsed it wrong and my correction is coming forthwith—but contracting "who has" is clumsy in this case.

Regarding the post title's question, I don't know. While I enjoy immensely watching movies on "the big screen," I don't know if I like them more just because of that. With cinema, the bigger the viewing area the better.

Regarding the article's opening Does Avatar Matter?, the reason Avatar left no "cultural footprint" is because it is pure fluff, as substantial as cotton candy. Without the giant screen and the 3D, the film is nothing. I loved it—well, the first half of it anyway, before it turned into a pedestrian fairy tale complete with comic-book evil soldier-guy. So much spectacle for so little substance. Did anyone see it in standard 2D?

I saw and enjoyed the second one too…in 3D of course. Couldn't even tell you the title. This one was mostly in or under water instead of a jungle, complete with another comic-book bad guy.
