  • Well said. There's a lot of nuance and I think this is a good summary.

    As China, Russia, Iran, and various other strict authoritarian governments challenge the status quo of increasing democracy and peace, it's important to look at the alternative they're promoting.

  • Can't wait. No doubt usage and contributions will increase with improved interface.

    For example, I usually use Connect because it lets me hide read posts. But it doesn't auto populate/suggest communities when posting, which makes it much more of a pain to share things.

  • Yeah, everyone is acting like it's over now but in reality we're still incredibly vulnerable.

    Unprecedented global population means unprecedented opportunities for dangerous mutations, and easy global travel means it can spread faster than any time in history.

  • I had at least three comments talking about Lemmy removed too. For all I know it was many more than that because I didn't get any notice or explanation.

    My take is that they're censoring without even informing people because the fediverse is a real threat to them.

  • Sad that so many people live under such an oppressive government. Some people have started hating Russians but I feel bad for most of them.

    They're a huge country with all kinds of resources. If the government supported the people instead of keeping them under their heel, Russia could be an advanced, wealthy country with a rich culture. Instead we got Mafia in the Kremlin.

  • Good to trust your gut, don't feel bad for doing so. If you want to help people then there are much more effective ways than giving money to a person.

    And... you should help other people, not least because it's actually very good for you.
