  • I'm just curious if you're a tech worker? (or a teenager interested in tech)

    I ask because I feel like people who work in tech are basically exposed to the dangers of web privacy all the time. I remember having to implement a facebook pixel on a website, and realizing the network of surveillance that facebook have spread across the web at that time. So I have pretty decent privacy behaviors, still far from great but maybe slightly above average.

    But when I go to the doctor and I mention how often I eat fast food and drink alcohol, or when I go to the dentist and admit I don't floss everyday - I'm sure those people are thinking 'most people seriously don't care about their health'. They might stop short of 'fucking idiot', hopefully.

  • You've been here 25 days and not made a single contribution until the last 2 days where you've been posting about defederation. Now this place is 'dead'?

    You are trying to control everyone else's behavior, but your own doesn't even match your demands. Because you're demanding perfection and real things aren't perfect.

  • If I could have 'oh god Im wearing a Hawaiian shirt FUCK' as a flair, I would be so happy

  • Listen I live in the USA, but if thats your best pushback to all those facts - should tell you what a dire state we are in. And prisons that aren't for profit still send out prisoners to for-profit industries to work, so it's kind of a moot point.

  • Uh it looks nice, I have nothing specifically against it, however:

    • in general I dislike this type of self-promotion post on agora
    • if we are going to discuss this, I think people should be free to post any themes they've seen that they like and we can discuss all the themes at the same time and choose 1 for awhile, rather than having a discussion like this each time someone wants to promote a new theme.
  • the biggest meme community has had plenty of that and people seem to enjoy. I'd say start there.

    everywhere needs more content right now so be the change you want to see and make some anti-capitalist memes :)

  • Apologies if this is already posted and I just didn't notice the community it was in or where.

    It now appears this SCOTUS case was based on a fictional request with fictional damages.

  • If we maintain respectful conversations with each other, then bad actors from other communities will be obvious

    Also In general I dislike 'playing nice' with bullies to prevent them attacking you. Better to attack back.

  • take time off whenever you need :D Im sure people would rather you go far than go fast

  • is this the 2023 version of dogs playing poker?

    • fire most your staff
    • boost shit content, hide real content
    • force users whove blocked you to see your content anyways
    • refuse to pay your contractors / services

    Elon 'the genius' Musk

  • reddit was always heavily moderated for real piracy discussion, I believe

  • welcome!

    edit: just realized this isn't even my instance but w/e, welcome to the fediverse!

    2 things that really helped me: https://browse.feddit.de/ to find communities then search in the communities tab with name like community@instance.name

    if it doesn't pop up try typing !community@instance.name then community@instance.name again to see if it comes up

    basically new communities wont show on your community search tab until someone else on your server has searched and subscribed or interacted

  • I am tempted to buy transistor - is it pretty similar to Bastion? Pyre was amazing, but Im not sure if I need another straight forward RPG style game. Does it have some kind of unique hook?

    Into the Breach, Talos Principal, and Ori also look interesting. Although they're all slightly different than things I usually play so not sure.

  • Africa & South America: Am I a joke to you?

  • we just need to find her brand of community and have you show her a few posts a day. Whats she into - succulents? scary stories? funny videos? CATS?

    we can do this
