I have never been anywhere close to academia, hell I don’t have a degree at all. However, I am very aware of the bullshit that goes on with publishing. Oddly enough, I occasionally need to read papers on material science or metallurgy.

From my limited experience and understanding, there is no journal for null findings. Isn’t that equally important? Tempted to just make something basic for that.

Anyway, to the point of the post - please seed.

The real question is: How in the world did Ventrillo continue to exist after TeamSpeak came along?

Vent was an object lesson in hostile UX. It sounded like shit, changing any kind of setting (even basic things like individual volumes) was a a gymnastics routine, and mics constantly clipped despite settings.

Don’t worry, there’s a 12 yr old with a heavy Hindi accent on YouTube with the answer.

I have been the target of a surprised vulture’s vomit while being completely unaware of its presence in the tree above me. That was one of the most miserable experiences I’ve ever had. I look up much more often now.

It’s just cool to see Lemmy in any search result. It kind of reinforces that what we are doing here matters. Downside is that if an instance goes down, only a potential archive is there.
