Spanish guy, who likes open source software and has just discovered the fediverse (as of 28th of April, 2022). I like video games, and indie and retro music. I’m a student. I’m officially diagnosed with ADHD and ASD since January, 2023.
America is a continent and Americans are people from that continent (Canadians, Usonians, Mexicans, Cubans, Argentinians, Brazilians…)
Mastodon user: https://mstdn.social/@icg937
Peertube user: https://video.hardlimit.com/a/ignacio/video-channels
The only original content I can think about right now is polandball. Other than that, reddit did and is doing the same.
If all people thought like you do, then the fediverse wouldn’t exist at all. No mastodon, no peertube, no pixelfed, nothing. Because it seems easier to complain instead of to collaborate in its growth.
I had suspicions about lemmy.world since it started to become a big player inside of lemmy. Now those suspicions became real. That, and the fact that an instance with the domain .world is more US than world. Thanks for the info.
I’m really sorry for what happened to you. And I’m really disappointed because lemmy allows fascist instances and fascist friendly instances to stay, like lemmy.ml, the bears, the grads, and others. Why can’t they just leave like exploding-heads did? Why right fascism is bad and left fascism is good, when fascism is fascism after all?
If you post certain contents in a fascist friendly instance, things like that can happen, unfortunately.
The auto-mod even could remove your 1000 paragraphs essay because it included just one specific forbidden word in a single line in a single paragraph.
Damn. I wouldn’t even be able to imagine where he would send her if that was a FreeBSD household.
I’ll always have “A Link to the past” in my memory, and some other derivatives from that game.
I’m left handed, and I use a mouse with my right hand since I was 11 (now I’m 35) because my two brothers are right handed.
I cannot see it unless I go to my profile page, so it’s hidden to me. It’s not like on Reddit, where you could see it at the upper right corner, no matter the Reddit page you where on.
Kbin and Lemmy are better built than Reddit in several ways to handle those behaviours to a certain point:
Karma: it’s hidden on Kbin, and I can’t find it on Lemmy. So, there is no pressure to post or comment something. Do you know that feeling on Reddit when you have 500 karma, you write a comment, and later you have 480 karma? That’s what I’m talking about.
Instances with their own rules: every instance has its own administrator(s), and they can set different rules for them and apply them. Some are more tolerant than others, so in the end,your experience depends on what instance your account is. Besides, some instances don’t have downvotes, so that’s a big plus too.
People: we all, or the most of us, know how situation was on Reddit, how we struggled to make our experience be positive, with no success. Because we know that, we don’t want that situation to replicate on these places. It’s difficult sometimes, but we do what we can.
Defederation: as someone said here, if situation inside an instance is too hard to tackle, to the point that those bad entities harass users on other instances, then defederation is key, until the situation comes back to normal.
And there are other things, like algorithm (or lack of), code open sourced to fork if you wish, etc.
I, for one, welcome our new She-Ra meme overlords. Obviously, without trashing Futurama, The Simpsons, King of the Hill, etc.
I don’t want to be gay and do crime. Can I do crime and be gay instead?
I think it’s the admin of mastodon.art the source of almost all the drama. Even the admin of the server where I am had issues with that admin and blocked her.
Interstellar. I watched it like 4 times.
You can use Pixelfed in the same way you use Imgur (assuming you use Imgur) to post memes or gifs and link them onto Lemmy/Kbin.
It seems that it’s an European country, and here privacy laws are more strict regarding to licence plates on pictures. It’s wiser to censor them.
EDIT: here is an article about the topic (in Spanish).
Those are rookie numbers.
