  • The Italian government's undemocratic decisions have effect only in Italy, fortunately, and nobody in Europe has ever cared about what happens to Italian citizens (since they are not even consider properly civilized people). So the rest of EU is safe, this is just a click bait title.

  • Yet the political outcome is quite the same: desperate white people voting f@scist parties!

  • I live in a country with an oppressive government who discriminates people based on race, religion, sexual orientation and already blatantly favours the wealthy with total impunity. Nothing can be worse than this.

  • You are not Italian. Even our government sees citizens as cows to milk, especially if you are an employee and cannot fraud the tax system like everyone else does.

  • Am I allowed to say that I trust US Big Tech Corps more than my government and my police officers? Meta still is more ethical (even with the DEI programs cutoff and all the rest) than some corrupt governments.

  • Feel free to report bugs: there is an issue tracker, a Matrix room, an ActivityPub group, an in-app feedback form and an email address to write to. Criticism is welcome, this is a community project so speak up!

  • Dev here. Could you please tell me:

    • what instance you have logged in;
    • what application version you are using.

    The fact that you are seeing "hearts" to like makes me think it is < 0.4.0 because now there are thumbs up/down (since Friendica allows disliking too).

  • Maybe it will happen in some red state too in the future, to prove them wrong.

  • This is why they had Elkann join the board of directors. He has a great lobbying power in the EU. They know what they are doing at Meta.

  • I'm ashamed (as an Italian) to discover only now thanks to this post that "orzo" can be a pasta format and not just another cereal (it also means "barley"). I always heard the term "risoni" for it but "orzo" apparently is used as well. And I agree, it sucks.

    In case you did not know there is a cylindric variant too called "tempestina" which is even more awful (mainly used for soups, or for small children). It's uncommon to see grown adults eat them but, unfortunately, they exist.

  • In my country the far right distinguishes between legal immigrantes, who are cannon fodder for exploitative industry and therefore good, and illegal immigrants, who are criminals and need to be segregated in detection camps.

    Both types in any case ar discouraged from marrying the locals (public officers are resistant) and prevented from practicing their religion in public by local legislation (the national one is vague).

    For one time I feel my country is ahead of the US 🤣😅😭 maybe it is because we invented fassm after all.

  • Ok, I think I get it: customize per-user the sorting of posts and comments when you visit their profile, just like we already do for communities. That is an interesting feature too!

  • User tagging is a super interesting feature, if it can be useful to someone it could be implemented in Raccoon too.

    Can I ask what you mean by "post/comment sorting": how could it be improved?

  • Elections? No need for them after the surveillance system is up and running!

  • Ahah correct! Each time an Italian hears about an "ugly car" the Duna is the first thing that comes to their mind. It must be wired in our brains.

  • Since I worked on a Mastodon client, I know that there is a hide_collections parameter in the account settings which allows you to not disclose publicly your followers and following.

    It's in the PATCH v1/accounts/update_credentials API request body, see documentation here.

  • Out of the frying pan into the fire? Another corrupt christian neoliberal, "without eastern influences" only until the wind changes? I doubt this is good news at all.
