Exactly, I feel the mindset of ‘line must go up or you die’ is really ingrained in people’s minds. Even if everyone leaves for something else lemmy will still be here, slowly getting better with updates and time.
Doesn’t matter how many people use it. As long as even 1 person wants to use lemmy it will be here…
I still don’t think he’s the same guy who shot the CEO, it’s clearly for me a different person in the photos…
However, at this point this changes nothing of what’s going to happen, anyone caught for this would be facing the same charges. Let’s hope the jury feels as we all do and lets him walk
The comment above yours was referring to the rest of people who could vote but didn’t, and I thought you said they were not to blame.
Anyways it just means most of the US is ok with trump, which is absolutely insane.
Yep, women alone could have put this election in the bag for harris. That confuses me the most out of all of this…
That’s bs, it just takes 1 hour of your day to go put a mark on a piece of paper and be done with it…
Pure laziness and complacency
Why would anyone trust any company with their passwords??
Just use keepass and not bother with BS
Why does it have to be LMG of all places to use lemmy. Linus is not the cool tech guy anymore, he’s just another corpa boss who prefers profits over people and accuracy.
LMG has a long history of overworking its workers, plus reports of sexual harassment and bullying…
He belongs with spez and all other profit shitheads the fediverse is supposed to be free of.
My favorite linus quote (when asked why he didn’t properly test a product for a video):
I don’t know if I can apologize for not spending another $500 of various people’s time.
Same, I’d take it any day over VLC because of native dark mode. VLC’s themes are janky and weird-looking.
The fuck is the point then? you get to pay to have the privilege of paying more for a mobile game?
All the netflix games I see are just shitty mobile games, nothing of value will be lost.
I’ll never understand how Twitch became as big as a thing as it is.
You already answered that in your comment.
You want to watch videos, not livestreams. Of course a video will be better at being, you know, a video (nicely edited, in short format, etc). A livestream is different for many reasons, none of which interests you apparently.
Nothing wrong with that tbh. It’s just not for you.
This is a bigger issue to leave it to users imo. Like lemm.ee admin said a few months ago, threads is too fucking big.
Anything they push on the fediverse will be what users see in All. Plus, popular stuff on threads is determined through Facebook’s algorithm, and it will also determine the fediverse recommendations by consequence.
The above is solvable if you block them I guess, but by default it will completely ruin everything.
However, lemmy 0.19 block feature doesn’t work on users of an instance, only posts hosted in an instance. Add to this that Facebook is a cancerous company making all its money from ads. Expect their bots to comment and make posts pushing ads on all instances.
All of this will also mean high workload on mods to regulate the content. Threads doesn’t bring anything good here, and defederation is probably the only way to protect us.
@SleeplessOne1917 seems to be their GitHub handle. You can see this by going to one of the pull requests that are linked in the thread (e.g instance block feature)
@cannotsleep420 seems to be their lemmy handle. You can see this by going to the thread link the OP posted, in which that account is commenting about the UI tweaks.
Both accounts list their location as ‘Burgerland’(?) so they’re most likely the same dev. Plus the ‘SleeplessOne1917’ lemmy handle you linked has absolutely no activity.
You can also see @cannotsleep420 crossposting earlier lemmy changelogs that mention @SleeplessOne1917…
RIP cheems
Those who are still on the ‘apple bad’ train like to forget they are running an OS built by an ads company.
Every phone manufacturer has some bad shit, I choose to stick with apple cuz I already have a big library of paid stuff.
I’m actually surprised that a few lemmy instances allow minors to sign up. I don’t get it. It’s always a liability and platforms tend to become dystopian in the name of “protecting the children” and to comply with additional laws and requirements…
Honestly I’m now thinking of migrating from lemm.ee now that I learned of it allowing minors, this instance could turn into shit because of it. Example: “we’ll defederate from any mature instance because the kids can’t see boob”
