This is somehow effecting my kbin hot feed as well, because I'm also seeing a lot more niche communities and less memes which is great

The twitter/musk posts are getting large amount of upvotes so just figured that's why people keep posting.

That's what we had thought too. Also the fact that it was a really generic looking red plus sign. How can someone trademark a symbol used by everyone? I guess if it wasn't red, it would have been fine. There was a lot of scoffing going on in clinic.

My vet clinic I work at was contacted by Red Cross some years ago damanding that we change our logo becuase it had a red plus sign in it. It was the most ridiculous thing. How did they even find out about us? we are no big time clinic, only people in our city are going to know who we are. We had that logo for a long, long time. It was just bizarre.

I don't know anthing about EndlessOS, but Zorin tends to be a good Windows substitute.

If you want to cross post to different communities, then maybe, but cross posting to all the other technology communities seems awfully redundant and spammy. With how lemmy works, if someone is subscribed to one technology community, they're likely subscribed to others.

I suppose pointing it at the bidet instead of the toilet is more tasteful

What I'm finding and what's really annoying, is that every streaming service out there has like 1 or 2 shows and a couple of movies I want to see. Someone will bring up a show, but oh sorry, it's on Crave. Or nope, that one's on Disney Plus. That other show? It's on Prime.

I recently canceled Netflix and moved to Crave, and I am certainly no happier. Thank God I barely care to watch TV as it is.

Looks like someone continuously hitting the suggested words on there cellphone keyboard.

Also, love the analogy.

Does that mean they were banned off the entire fediverse? That's crazy.

My husband just traded one for the other. We'd like to think it's "healthier", but who knows. Definitely stinks less which I appreciate.

But everyone and everything rather avoid pain, wouldn't they? And if I would like to treat those the way I would like to be treated, then why not try to help mitigate that pain where possible?

The only alternatives I'm ever told about is Gimp (which sucks, I don't care what anyone says) or Krita, which while a good program, is not the same. I also think you have to pay for Krita on Windows, but its free on Linux for some reason.

What else is out there?

The depressing part is watching people go from one jackass to another.

I had a problem like this the other day. I needed to vacuum out my car and there is no good outlet near it where I park at my apartment building. Went to the hand wash to wash my car, then on the outside of the building there was a random outlet on the wall, no idea why it was there. I thought about plugging my vacuum in that I had in my trunk, but I felt too weird about it..

On another note, I've totally used outlets in the hospital waiting area when I've been there for hours. I don't feel weird about that for whatever reason. But we don't pay for Healthcare here so maybe that has something to do with it.

They removed the need for an account to view tweets not long after they implemented it.

As far as I know the rate limit is still in effect though.

Photoshop for me. Yeah I can get it running under Linux, but it keeps crashing, or is buggy.
And no, Gimp is not a good replacement if anyone goes there.

Gyfycat has also been running for 8 years, Imgur for 14. I'm talking only about the longevity of a service running. I don't think people are expecting any instance to run for that amount of time, though its obviously too early to tell.

Clearly these large centralized services eventually decay away due to power hungry individuals within, but it takes some time.

I'm not sure if people are going to read this as I'm pro-centralized services, because I'm not, I'm just making statements.

If lemmy.world dies, you're account goes down along with it. You would then need to find a new instance and make a new account.

I understand what you're saying, but I feel more concerned with the stability of instances due to the fact that they're run by everyday people as something to do, they already have lives and jobs outside of this. Maybe it's a passion project they pour a lot into, but the possibility of it crashing down for various reasons is a lot higher than a larger centralized service run by companies whose soul purpose is to run that service.
