They did say "X milions of accounts were ACTIVATED in one day", not "created".

Some people think we are stronger than Meta and their influence, which is nonsense, they can ddos all federation with legitimate trafic, let alone influence community.

A lot of people forget that they are master manipulators and have algorithms decide what is popular. Thay can easily choose what they want from fediverse and make it popular, which could lead to painting totally wrong picture of this community.

Please come to lemmy, we will need BotDefende pretty soon.

You are on 0.18.2, lemmy world will be upgraded tonight. OP is on spouli.xyz which is on 0.18.3

My opinion is that state and law should not care about sex of a parent or partner. Just to guarantee us all the same rights.

My other option is that this is quite bad news article (thou that might not be news site, so it is not on them, but on us) since there are a lot of opinions but is hard to find any facts in it.

What exactly is the law? Who exactly is who? What are the consequences, practical not only emotional? This is raising fear levels, but I am not certain what to fight against (except whole Italian government).

I know that r/Python is closed, which is big sub. I ended up there after some search.

Even porn looks more boring, not sure if it's just me or content really suffered from all this.

That happened to all porn, it got disgusting.

I want to see real people sharing their sexuality, not people faking it for money.

Wow! Article with images it talks about.

I can recomend to do just something easy. Find easiest and shortest routine (that lasts 2 minutes, literally) and do it in the morning.

Since I startet it, I feel much much better. It is not like full exercise, but at least muscles don't hurt as much.

I do:

• Head and Shoulder Rolls x5 to each side
• Hip Circles:l x5 to each side
• Arm Circles x5 to each side
• squats x10
• some others similar warm up exercises when I feel like it (ex. malasana squat)

Idea is to move every muscle in my body. It is not hard, lasts 2-3 minutes but makes my day few percents nicer.

When I can not wach live I avoid all F1 media, this is live event and escaping that will only hurt community.

Just imagine calling your friends to watch recording of Superbowl.

Even more, how long delay should be there?

On the other hand, most upvoted posts and comments on redit are far away from best. I expect most of those people will not even notice, they just scroll over reposts and bot.

I am, somehow, on both sides. I do think monetization is necessary, but would also like to keep part of it out of it.

I guess that I see monetization a bit idealistically, like having non tracking ads and sponsorships, or having separate instances with paid accounts that is also financing others... stuff like that. But that might not be enough anyway, as it is not for reddit, twitter, fb, yt... even with all of their data harvesting and selling.

So maybe donations are the way to go? Wikipedia is one of the biggest sites of the world and is managing to collect enough money through donations.

Lemmy/Mastadon is even easier, country/cities can have their instances to allow their citizens access to social network, companies can have their instances for their users and potential users or just as giving something to community.

And we can have this kind where we donate to individual administrators.

I think that even if I would enable adds they would get less than 1USD per month for me, let's say I donate 10USD per year for lemmy+mastadon?

Maybe tutanota, protonmail can have their instances? They are already hosting stuff, so would be a big problem (except moderation).

I can see all of this fail, but I also see it can succeed.

KeepassXC on desktop with browser plugin, KeePassDX on android I find it less confusing to use than Keepass2Android.

It is only a bit difficult to setup sync, but you can use syncthing, or drive and it works nicely.

Another thing I never see anyone in US is talking about: If US veterans need so much help (and they really do), what is happening to people in counties they were fighting against? And those are not only soldiers, but whole families. Everyone ober there has witnessed same shit they did, kids, elders, moms...

XMPP akka Jabber was the chat back in the day, if you wanted to chat one on one, and didn't want msn and other random corporate messangers - jabber was it.

All geeky/techy friends were on jabber, others were on skype and some other networks through time.

That's why Pidgin ( https://www.pidgin.im/plugins/?publisher=all&query=&type=) was important it implemented all those messaging protocols together.

But one year, all of a sudden, everyone got on jabber! Thise from Facebook and those from Google. Google Talk was great, all my friends were online and reachable. Good days.

Than they killed it. And it all stopped. Not only for us on jabber, but for everyone. But jabber god destroyed, no one was there anymore. We all felt that emptiness and it was not fun anymore.

Wether they did it intentionally or by accident doesn't matter. If you go with your truck over kids bike intentionally to destroy it or just want to pass - doesn't matter at the end.

I am here for the comments, not articles.

I don't care about articles since it is usually just one person's opinion. I want discussion with other people, where ideas can be challenged and tested.

Adding links will not help that.

For me, personally, it is good enough right now. I do open reddit sometimes for smaller communities not active here, but if we keep it at this traffic, I will be satisfied.

I also think they don't care about us, I doubt they even know we exist.

That doesn't change that they would destroy us unintentionally. Like Vogons.

And by commercializing it they would destroy it, since they will be promoting content that generates most clicks and everything will become agresive.

There is no one solution, that's how we got ourselves into this mess.
