Oh, fuck off. I'm not one to root my phone, but you own the damn thing. Once it's in your hands, the maker should have no right to tell you what to do with it.

This pic always gets me. Just an innocuous picture that, if it weren't for the camera quality and the twin towers, could just as well be taken today. However, as recognizable as it is as modern America, this picture can no longer be replicated. Just as life pre-9/11 can never be replicated post.

I think of this like game servers.

The site you're using is your platform (kbin=pc, mastodon=xbox, lemmy=ps). After that, the instances are what servers you connect to (lemmy.ca=psNA, whatever on mastodon=xboxSEA, kbin.social=pcEU. Then, federation is bringing it all together with crossplay.

Made a bit of sense to me, so hopefully this helps!

Damn, WD's been my go-to brand for drives for years.

I think that planefuckers should be friends with gunfuckers.

Could 100% tell it was going to hell the past while, knew it was mainstream for several years now, ever since I started hearing radio hosts talk about Reddit. However, a few months ago I was helping my mom with something, and I glanced at her phone to see Reddit open. That's when I thought "Oh. Reddit's over".

Hands, by virtue of being the things doing the scrubbing, should be red.

Yes, but first you must find the remaining pixels to complete the image, then you will learn the powers of the 3000 Carl Gustavs of Harald V.

for low end phones

Just curious, does this include posts from kbin users to lemmy communities? I'd imagine it doesn't count posts to kbin magazines, since kbin is a different software altogether (maybe posts from lemmy users to kbin magazines count).

Yes

So many mags I've seen that line up with my interests, just for them to be squatted on by users with 0 posts. While I'm not interested in modding more than the one mag I do mod, I feel we do need a way to replace those squatters.

Preferred the stock UI of Kbin, then I found out about userstyles and am in love with them. I'm a big fan of the microblogging, as it's a place for posts that don't warrant a full thread, but can still spark discussion. The politics of the Lemmy devs disgust me, so I'd rather not use a site using their software. Public upvotes/downvotes are great IMO, lets things be more transparent (like for instance I upvote all my posts, without it being public no one would know), plus it helps catch fake votes.

I also just find the name Kbin to be more catchy than Lemmy. Like GabeN, or k than.

Same with Kbin.

Seems like a lot of people think this part of the fediverse is just lemmy.

You would love Girls' Frontline

Hope they get well soon

1. I like the UI more
2. Not developed by tankies
3. Catchier name IMO (reminds me of GabeN, while Lemmy makes me think of Lemmings, which isn't the best)
4. Microblogs are neat

Some may call it heresy, but I abaolutely love thenes of old Windows on Linux. It's familiar and nostalgic at the same time. Got a Windows XP theme on my Laptop, and plan to use a Windows 7 theme on my main rig when I finally set it up with Linux.
