Sometimes it feels Lemmy community cares a bit too much about what happens on Reddit.

Let's be honest, it is unlikely Reddit is going to die or change policy. And who cares.

I'm just happy there is much better alternative and I'm not looking back.

The guy onse famously responded to the question of how the community can ensure that vim project succeeds for the forseeable future with "keep me alive". Seems like there is our fault :(

RIP the legend. Keep Vimming.

Whether true or not, I enjoyed reading the story, so, thanks for posting

How forced an arbitration even legal. I don't get it.

Damn... flashback to Belarus 2020

I don't think google cares if you buy stuff or not. They are just selling ads.

But I agree with overall idea: if the ads become unavoidable, I'll just stop watching youtube.

would be curious to hear about it... I usually used web ui and only left reddit because of their approach of dealing with the community. Didn't personally suffered any inconvenience due to api shenanigans.

I don't think Fediverse should be divided according to political compass. Just start a community on any instance and find your people. I don't think you will face any censorship if the discussion is kept civilized.

I have heard few supposedly right wing instances were defederated, but I don't agree it happened because of their agenda. The true reason was an overall 4-chan like chaos and hatread.

I wouldn't be surprized if a lot of participants of this protest are also Russians, considering Georgia is #1 destination for Russian political emmigration.

I've been wondering what Lemmy was like until Jun 2023. Quite cozy I guess.

I have heard a lot of opinions about why back-heavy setup is bad, but it always felt like they were a bit too theoretical. While most of the concerns are probably true, it seems they are pretty negligible compared to other factors, so I'd say - enjoy what works for you. Just maintain your bike well before going on an adventure. Check the spokes tension and the tires condition.

Suddenly Жыве Беларусь with Belarusian national flag alongside Russian antiwar flag. Damn sometimes I really miss the community.

Yep, just a fancy funeral. I wonder how much energy this nonesense consumes/how hard does it contribute to global warming.

Is the guy still in Russia?

Frankly, after scrolling fo few minutes I thought this was Lemmy-powered 4chan...

I guess for most it is just a habit to use Apps to access everything from phone. Most in-browser UIs usually suck anyway (or at least they used to).

They should just move to a ready to use dictatorship like Russia and lieve happily (got conscripted and killed)

Nah, I banned Reddit myself. Leaving "fuck u/spez" in the leave message.

Alrighty... they do it once a month. I doubt there are real threats towards Belarus apart from Kalinoŭski regiment and own population.

i kinda doubt that there will be hordes joining Lemmy. Most who cares already migrated
