  • The biggest threat IMO is being exposed to Meta-curated content. They definitely use their algorithms to push narratives in their interest.

    Being exposed to their users is being exposed to them by proxy.

  • How much of those 3% are comprised of the 1% who are active posters and the 10% who contribute commenting instead of the ~90% lurkers?

    I'm willing to bet more than 20% of the people who left Reddit are frequent contributors instead of lurkers. Those are the users that drive traffic in the long run.

  • Possibly a server issue. I'm on lemmy.ml and got some lag issues a few hours ago.

  • Please, showing girthy shafts like this in public is such a shameless behaviour.

  • We can always keep a never in 10 years updated profile active for family and stuff. The biggest danger is for active users after all: they're the most vulnerable to targeted media manipulation.

    By being present in their lives (while giving up as few data as possible to big corporations) they can have by their side someone with good advices on privacy, manufactured consent, rights violations and adjacent topics. Alienating ourselves from them isn't really beneficial in the long run.

    I use WhatsApp as well for the people I keep in touch with, and have an active Instagram account where I use only the chat feature. It's enough to keep up with the people in my life.

    For whoever is even more privacy concerned, it's possible to run those apps in sandboxed mode through some apps.

  • He doesn't need to know.

  • Having some experience with both Python and JS/TS, I don't have much preference about ternaries or expressions. Although I always break lines for ternary statements.

     
        
    const testStuff = condition ? 
      outcome(1) :
      outcome(2);
    
      

    Having everything on the same line ruins readability for me.

  • I love those "are we (thing) yet" sites. They're amazingly helpful.

  • Now for the 10 mIlion!

  • Same here, partner. Moved yesterday.

  • What kit is it? It's been ages since I last got any new, my favourite one was the Bionicle series.

  • "But gommunism killed TRILLIONS of people!"

    We'll feel the results of neolib indoctrination (and intentional dumbing of the masses) for decades, and it's disgusting.

  • My past child self feels vindicated for being a Sega fan.

  • You can be sure a good deal of Meta bootlickers here are astroturfing accounts. Meta's business is to manipulate public perceptions and opinions, and astroturfing is definitely one of the tools employed.

  • Billionaire and neolib bootlickers are one of the most disgusting things on the internet. Everything for the imperialist/corporatist agenda even when it goes against their own wellbeing.

  • NeoVim, VSCodium and Kate are my picks.

  • As long as the same extensions exist in its repositories, yes. VSCodium has its own extension marketplace though, many of the most used can be easily found there.

  • You can always have 2 homes. I made this one today and it was as hard as just following back the same communities my account on .world did

  • Denuvo only makes me go meet a FitGirl and her friends.

  • Savage, gonna save that quote to use sometime that I'll definitely not forget.
