Problem is I like c/piracy. I don't pirate much, but I do everything I can to avoid ads, and i self-host a lot of stuff, so there's a lot of overlap between my interest and the content there.

I'm one of those Linux Die-hards (well, I use Pop! so I guess I can't be that die-hard) so I actually enjoy the privacy/FOSS discussions, but totally see how it would be annoying.

But yeah I've slowly been moving back to Reddit in-browser because of the spam and the lack of communities here. I won't be caught dead using their app though. If they disable mobile web I'll either stop using Reddit again or find a way around it.

Finally, an emoji that's worth being that big

The sheer amount of pro-communist/pro-china comments is insane here. Plus the number of giant emojis that spam up the whole comment feed. Honestly, most of my real issues come down strictly to Hexbear users. A lot of their behavior completely ruins the platform for me.

That and the lack of fanbases for the things I like. There's very little Star Wars or Halo fan presence here. Feels like Star Trek is the only fandom with any presence here, so I have to go back to reddit for those things.

Seriously, my first reaction was "10C isn't even that cold."

My mind is blown

Ori And The Blind Forest is definitely up there

I think this is the best answer here. The theatrical Palace scene had such a good tone, they totally ruined it when they added Jedi Rocks.

By the time you're 20 you'll be using Arch Linux and self-hosting everything!

This is my biggest pet peeve. One data point can't be exponentially more than one other data point without context.

If people still want to sound "smart" because they used a fancy math word, you can say "orders of magnitude more experienced."

The smell of Greek Yogurt

For me it was TLOU pt 1. I was so excited for it to come to PC, but it ended up being completely unplayable, and I wasn't really a huge fan of the third-person cover-shooter gameplay. I played about 3 hours (and 4 hours of waiting on the menu) during the first week, and haven't touched it since.

Another bump for Proton. My wife and I share an account with a few different addresses each going to their own folder. (One for me, one for her, one for shopping, one for spam, etc) Their VPN is great too and includes ad/tracker blocking.

+1 for Newpipe, it's amazing. I can't imagine watching YouTube without it at this point. It's basically YouTube premium but free, and with some extra features like channel groups. Oh and no sign-in.

I think the idea here is that if mods are bad on, say, memes@lemmy.ml, everyone can just leave and make memes@sh.itjust.works or wherever. There should be more competition here, at least in theory. Time will tell how well it actually works.

You'll catch on. It's just like using Reddit, except each subreddit includes a web address in the name. Other than that, it's mostly the same.

There's a really good third-party Photoprism app on F Droid. So much nicer than using the web app.

Start page is pretty good. From my understanding it uses Google Search Results, just without user-specific results obviously

I see it a lot from my friends who are aerospace nerds, because SpaceX does some pretty cool stuff. Their enthusiasm for SpaceX translates to Tesla, FSD, etc.

10 minute burner emails are such a godsend.
