Some good tips on this thread, saved for later.

This is the Way.

Telegram is just lousy with crap posts and comments now as well.

"Eventually, everything becomes a crab"

Carcinization is an example of a phenomenon called convergent evolution, which is when different groups independently evolve the same traits. It's the same reason both bats and birds have wings. But intriguingly, the crab-like body plan has emerged many times among very closely related animals.

It seems to apply to social networks as well 😀

If you knew your way around the old Dos Edit text editor, Tilde will make you happy: https://github.com/gphalkes/tilde

I agree with OP...would like to be able to do that here on Lemmy as well...if you want to not see a post here, you have to block the user altogether.

Edit: Just tested it OP, after you refresh it goes away...it's just a chance to Undo before it disappears entirely. It's not a terrible change :)

I still have all my messages, including the original 'Welcome to Reddit' message from 7 years ago:

EndeavourOS is an Arch based distro only a lot easier to use...pretty happy with it. I have it down to that or Debian.

I think OP has a point...silence and no traffic would be a better weapon against Spez...he already knows we hate him.

but it seems like the developers tried to make it as different as possible just for the sake of being different.

They might actually be trying to avoid getting sued by Adobe.

I have no official measurements but when I stop in occasionally, I notice it's much more responsive than it used to be :)

Midnight Commander

Has that new car smell.

I posted quite a bit on /r/conspiracy on the pandemic ...after that I got banned from posting on /r/vaccinelonghaulers and all the city and country subs eg: /r/korea. Still have my account and I can still post on places I'm not banned.

...just subbed to banhammered, I'll post it there too.

"Lemmy is the New Reddit"

Hip Hip, Hooray! 😁

Maybe it was a paid hit piece by Microsoft or Apple.

No worries, I'm new here myself :)

Was there meant to be a linky?

That's the camel's nose in the tent, eventually you wind up with an Edward Snowden type situation:

They can do their own in house testing and let that be good enough. As you say though, I don't use RHEL derivatives since they killed Centos.
