I know that, and I hate it. Yet, I do not know any other way to meet hot singles in my area (or not in my area).

Bears ☠️

They actually get dangerously close to them, to pet them and take photos of them and feed them, then these tourists wonder why are they being attacked…

It’s not really hard to type a website, it’s rather hard to remember it. You remember your username. Okay. But where were you? mastodon dot what?

When you use your full address, it’s not that hard to remember it.

There are not, and probably will never be, as they require proprietary blobs (e.g. see this issue in Catima)

Something like that. I always heard it from my parents and grandparents that “it’s with fleas” or “you can see with fleas” when that happened. I never knew what was the link between those, but it sounds funny all the time, lol.

fleas

I cannot reply to a previous comment, due to it not federating here, but the children of 2020s will literally be online from day one!

There are countless parents that are posting pictures of their newborns on social media, on Instagram or Facebook, straight to a server in California, so imagine that every single person whose parents are like oh, I don’t care about privacy, I got nothing to hide bro will have at least one photo there.

And it’s not only that. They’ll just never get to experience how life goes with no computer in sight, with no smartphones, not even cellphones at all. No computer, and more importantly, no internet, just cartoons on TV such as Life with Louie or Courage the Cowardly Dog or the Looney Tunes series. And even more importantly, no social media. None at all. Nothing to distract you from actually living.

If only those apps could have the ability to use an open protocol they were actually built on, that would allow this exact interoperability needed instead of a proprietary half-assed solution, what was its name again…?

I kinda get all the Threads worries and the fact that some people might not be comfortable with Meta collecting their data for advertising. But this is just insane. It just makes me think people are just irrationally angry at everything, and they like being that, instead of informing themselves about what everything does.

Well, those who did not vote are complacent to the majority vote. So I’d say that’s a win.

Always go out there and vote, regardless of the option you choose. That’s what keeps a democratic system up and running. If you don’t, you just agree with what is decided by others and stay complacent.

lemmy.ml
first time […] a mod didn’t like the viewpoint expressed.

Haha, wow, first time?

Welcome to this place. Lemmy.ml is notorious for being run by the actual tankies that created this project. See what they support, what they don’t, and have an opposite opinion on that. You will get the boys telling you how it acchually it is not and call you a glowie CIA agent or whatnot for not siding with them. The Reddit migration probably made them more accepting of opposite opinions, but probably because things have calmed down more a bit lately, they started aggressively moderating stances like yours and probably anti-Kremlin takes as well (seriously, before that, if you were against the Russian invasion in Ukraine or against China’s politics you would have been accused of being racist towards them - but hey, you can say whatever you want against the USA, or The West, you can’t be racist against these, can you?).

Anyway, here’s a longer take by FediTips that explains the issues with Lemmy:

This might be subjective, but imo, while Mastodon has the most feature complete apps, it’s not the most feature complete platform out there. Hell, even Kbin is more feature complete than Mastodon. I recommend trying Friendica, Hubzilla or Streams for a larger feature set.

I agree with the logistics part, as they’d need to build and maintain additional facilities but

Abrams aren’t built for Romania’s terrain.

What do you mean by that? Why would they be incompatible with our terrain? Indeed, they’ll most likely never be used in the Carpathians, as you’d need more compact and mobile vehicles to go through there. But given our current threat vector - which comes from the East, so basically only Moldovan low-rise hills, Dobrudja and the Romanian Plains where Bucharest is located being the parts under threat - why would they be not fit for that type of terrain?

Friendica should fit the bill right there for you. Or if you don’t want ActivityPub, check out diaspora*. There’s also Hubzilla which uses AP as well, but internally it uses its own Zot protocol.

Don’t know about you, but I feel the Fediverse has been flooded by actual news rn though. I’m probably already following too many publications, but I feel like my feed is flooded by them lately.

That’d surely had been a bad idea. I mean, that would disrupt Hamas&Bibi’s spiral of escalation, right?

You can also use Friendica if you enjoy Tumblr. It has a wider degree of customization in regard to its interface, and you can also cross post or get your Tumblr feed in Friendica (provided the server you’re using has the appropriate tumblr addon).

Băga-mi-aș pula-n coliva mă-tii de să-mi sară coaiele din bomboană-n bomboană

This is a highly niche one in my native language as well, as one must also know what is colivă - it’s basically a desert that we eat at funerals with m&m-sized candies in it as well. So it roughly translates let me stick my dick in your mother’s coliva so hard that my balls jump from candy to candy

You have more people that know how to exit a note app tho, compared to vim.

Have you tried using different colors to highlight certain content? This way, you can somehow remember what is going on and where, and you remember to look for certain keywords. You can sometimes put certain words in a square, so you won’t develop a habit and actually remember what you wrote.
