Ephesians 2:8-10

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

1 Peter 2:9-10

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God’s people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

I believe the progress one is less open than the classic six striped

Organic developments of virtue signalling by corpos, I found.

I think you can display two flags- the normal generic pride one and then whatever subgroup you identify with (trans, lesbian, non binary, etc)

It was poorly designed ever since they added the chevrons. The six colour pride flag was already pushing it with having six colours, but it pulled it off well and made it work. But anything else just screws it up.

Personally, I think adding intersex, transgender, black people(???) makes it seem as if they WEREN'T included in the original. I was always under the impression that the 🏳️‍🌈 flag included the whole LGBTQ+ groupings

If you have a religion, shouldn't it be your entire identity?

Now the human needs his protein....

I remember when everything was so glitchy and broken at first, Jerboa barely worked

What's a better alternative that offer good ddos protection and tunnels

Further if there was a sabertooth tiger chasing me

"Why don't children go outside anymore?"

I think that's basically the whole point. Or if someone would rather use Mastodon - look, the lemmy userbase is there as well!

Piefed, Mbin and Lemmy aren't necessarily aggressively competing like X and Bluesky are. It's moreso friendly cooperation. Sure, if the fediverse was a bit more commercialised, you'd have competition. But it would be fairer competition based on how good your Software and ethics are and not on who else is also using the app.

Exactly. Men want to feel important as well. I think taking away masculinity has led us to this dangerous place.

My great grandfather shot nazis for King and Country 😎🇬🇧

Real men wear cat ears, maid dresses, and share their gf with other men

Be nice and respectful to them and masculinity. Like "It's masculine to protect the oppressed"

Don't belittle anyone for that matter, such as based on race, gender or religions, even if you're upset at that grouping.

New platforms can set up shop and already have an existing userbase/contentbase to show. The main issue with setting up, let's say, an Instagram competitor, is that nobody uses it, so nobody will use it as it lacks content. ActivityPub removes this problem. If someone wanted to set up their own competitor to Mastodon, they can. People can use it and tap into the existing userbase.

Singapore time 😈

The most they can do is add a load of more users to the fediverse then take them away again. For them to successfully EEE the fediverse, it would require convincing existing fediverse users to switch to threads. I cannot see that happening on here on any noticeable scale.

If anything, Bluesky is the bigger threat as it touts itself as "decentralised" in order to gain users who would have otherwise gone to Mastodon, then easily pull the plug.
