  • The issue occurs when purported facts are just merely opinions or regurgitating talking points, you used to see it heaps on Twitter, someone alright posting their mini rant and sprinkling in "facts"

  • Used to see that mentality heaps on Twitter, that X isn't up for debate etc. People should really go back there if that's how they want to engage in their online discourse, the point of the fediverse isn't to be another echo chamber.

  • Though that's the reason you make heaps of alts, ensures that when you anger the next janny you don't lose access

  • So it creating an exe and hiding it from the task manager is fairly normal then? From the screenshots another bloke pasted on here, that looks pretty suspicious

  • Cheers for the screenshot mate.

  • Heaps of stuff that's positioned as the "alternative of X" feels like garbo. For example when I'm forced to use Pinta editor / GIMP over Photoshop when I'm using Linux. I get the expectation can't be to have feature parity but some of these alternatives feel really poor

  • It we were living off the good graces of another species who raised us, I guess we'd have no choice in the matter if we were fed other humans, just like these animals

  • I heard it tastes like bacon

  • For 99 bucks there better be a great bed, amenities and other hotel like services. What a joke

  • That's not a helpful statement, just a deflection to a legitimate question. Where are the parents and why are they not here also making the crossing

  • What are these buoys and how are they used to deter migrants?

  • I'd be keen to give it a go if it were legitimately anyone else besides Facebook. Would have even tried it if Microsoft made a random Twitter clone

  • I'll give you an upvote and this thumbs up emoji 👍🏼

  • With all the extra free time I've got from not doom scrolling Reddit, I think I'm actually the winner here, cheers spez

  • Be super keen for foldable devices overall. I just can't get past the huge obvious fold in the middle of the screen. It's gotten better but I'm hoping eventually it evolves to the point where it's seamless. Being able to pull out a phone and then unfold it to get a tablet UI would be super handy for articles

  • With the way some people treat the fediverse I'd argue that this place as a whole is well on its way to becoming an echo chamber.

    The number of posts I've seen along the lines of "hey I don't like x, can we de-federate" is shocking. People need to have some level of accountability and block people / communities / domains for themselves without resorting to pulling out the de-federation ban-hammer which affects everyone else on the instance

  • That good things, even if they seem like they'll last forever simply may not. Never forget they took third party apps from us

  • People hear from others that Lemmy is the place you go and when searched for you end up here. Having registrations closed doesn't sound like a great idea when most people have no idea about the fediverse

  • Perfectly fair. People coming from Reddit specifically need to be eased into the fediverse and saying "whoops sorry we're full / closed" isn't great.

    Ideally if we want things balanced people should be on multiple instances but I'd rather several slower, bigger instances in the meantime until the community expands.

    Cheers for the work you guys do!

  • Congrats on the launch, exciting times to be sure!
