Has the Reddit exodus killed the former Lemmy culture?

  • Reddit used to be "nice". Then it became toxic. And now the toxic asshats are here and the moderators do nothing.

  • Ah yeah I'm afraid we don't take the high road anymore. It's not worked. Probably because "the libs" have realised that y'all don't have a better nature to appeal to.

    (And something tells me you're projecting)

  • Nobody believes it, though. People and companies that say such stuff want an excuse to be bigots.

    • Do you still write notes with pen and paper?

  • And your notes don't suddenly increase the price of your storage.

    Jump

  • Yes. It's faster and it doesn't end up getting lost on my phone or PC somewhere. I can also leave a page open on my desk if it's something I tend to forget (currently German prepositions).

    • Parents used to warn their kids that literature would rot their brains. Then it was the radio, TV, and video games. Now it's TikTok.

  • Who says you won't be one of the 15 percent who get long covid?

  • Covid mostly spreads through asymptomatic cases. Ignorance kills (or causes long covid).

  • Protecting others is weak and pathetic? Alrighty then. Bet you're a "Christian" too.

    • New Covid wave has begun and masks should be worn again, scientists warn

    Jump

  • Covid spreads easily because people who have it are often asymptomatic.

    For god's, sake, it's been 3.5 years. How do people still not know this?

  • No, most people don't have some degree of immunity. They found out very early during the pandemic that Covid damages the immune system and that you can basically assume you won't gain immunity. Stop pretending it's the flu.

    Fun fact: if you got sick during the first wave, getting it again will not result in any immunity.

    • World chess federation bars transgender women from competing in women's events

    Jump

  • They consider trans women men, and men are smarter than women. That's what it implies anyway.

  • It's transphobia and misogyny. Because it implies that men are smarter than women.

    Jump

  • Those "peasants" are responsible for the remaining 60 percent. And since those "peasants" also give these wealthy individuals money by buying useless stuff from them, you could even say that it's higher than that.

    • British Museum curator, 56, sacked after gold jewellery and gems worth tens of millions disappeared was world authority and one of institution's 'Monuments Men' who helped fight international looting

  • The Guardian has a similar misleading article.

    • TIL the german chancellor takes screenshots of his tweets on X and publishes it on his website because X is now a closed system.

  • The EU is too, there are some German institutions that do too, the Germans were early adopters

    • R/unpopular opinion was a scourge on reddit, and you’re all shit for trying to bring that garbage here.

    Jump

  • Right-wing, bigoted communities shouldn't be allowed to exist. Period.

    Jump

  • The problem is that people keep creating new communities with the same name.

  • The problem is that these things keep multiplying. You can block one instance and then it turns out there's a dozen more.

    • how is Lemmy going for you?

    Jump

  • Well... If I never see a post about tech or a meme again it'll be too soon.
