India is wild :(

Why is it necessary to enact such a law in a foreign country? Germany isn’t even on the same continent.

Nope. It’s a bit kitschy, but it does its job. Nitro though, nah.

Kbin kept logging me out. At some point, it got so annoying, I deleted my bookmark.

Congratulations, Poland. Finally getting away from the “problematic democracy” label.

I believe our societies are so complicated and complex, it’s tough to run them when the weather is fine. As soon as problems pop up, chaos ensues, and totalitarian regimes often have an easier time dealing with them. That’s the main problem IMHO, humanity having the tendency to take the path of least resistance.

“human animals”… reminiscent of “Untermenschen”.

Every decision he makes only hastens Twitter’s demise.

Gonna check out Connect, thank you :)

I don’t think Lemmy will reach or overtake Reddit. That’s a good thing in my opinion, because massive platforms come with massive moderation problems that aren’t so easy to tackle for decentralised networks. We’ve seen that when someone posted kiddie porn and several servers went down to scrub the filth from their systems.

If anything, Lemmy already has a pretty high amount of troll communities, thankfully mostly contained within their own servers, which enables separation through defederation (speaking of defederation, I’d love to have an option to block servers on the user level).

Sure, but I’d rather Google spy on me to market my data for targeted ads than a country that runs literal concentration camps and is just across the Taiwan strait, basically a stone’s throw from where I live.

WTF. Poor girl.

It’s a Chinese state company, and China has a vested interest in controlling,or at least influencing Afghanistan, so Russia can’t.

When I first heard about the API shutdown, I immediately overwrote all my comments and posts with randomly generated nonsense, then kept reading till RIF ceased to exist. Before I deleted the account, I ran a mass-deletion tool. Hopefully that prevented them from restoring the original content I contributed for free. Been on Lemmy ever since.

“Are you not entertained?”

Why hospice, is he terminally ill?

YouTube. Titles and thumbnails get worse every day.

No worries, she’ll find a job in Alabama.

Uttarly horrible.

Maybe this isn’t the place for a pun, but I couldn’t resist.

People could see their reflection in the water long before they climbed down from the branches.
