What peeves me is that the right are all clutching their pearls about anyone who says anything other than blind Trump sympathy. Don’t get me wrong, political violence is wrong. But, remember this:

When Paul Pelosi got his face bashed in with a hammer, the right made fun of it. Mocked him. Idk, man.

If it were anyone else, almost getting shot should be a wake-up call. “What have I become that this happens? Maybe I need to change how I act, and what I do.” But , no.

I’ve heard conservatives say “Banana Republic” like 30 times since yesterday, and not once did they talk about fruit companies taking over the government of a South American country and influencing it. Literally, they’re so stupid.

She wasn’t fired she wasn’t renewed.

You love to see it.

This “we’re gonna remove Biden from the ballot” thing is the most elaborate masturbating contest between the GOP, man.

The problem with this “oh, yeah! Just you wait, I’ll get you back!” Is that the states that removed Trump had a legal justification. He on the other hand is just talking shit, and that doesn’t hold up in court.

Surgeon Generals are supposed to have medical degrees. So, either this guy got his medical degree from a diploma mill and is a really good liar, or he’s got a regular degree and is just really stupid.

They really need to stop calling it a tip. It’s a bid for service.

Who’s the artist?

More people should try out Tubesync. It’s a tool you can host yourself that essentially uses yt-dl as a backend and lets you subscribe to channels, and it’ll download videos as they come out. Gets you away from the ads and you can archive content you like forever.

Teddit.net is also a good option, as it just mirrors reddit but doesn’t give them any money.

I think I’d rather have an optional membership to support the instance with perks or something. Not reddit gold though. Lemmy silver?

Would be cool for the ability to merge similar communities. Idk how that would work but similar /c/s could appear in one “super community”.

Also, Lemmy is a great alternative, simply because regardless of the devs political views, literally anyone can fork it on GitHub, make Lemmy2, and link it up with OG Lemmy and Kbin.

Not even really surprised. And you know, now that this article is live, these companies are going to complain, and stop advertising for like a month, and then silently go back to advertising when everyone forgets.

This doesn’t have to do with the topic at hand, but it’s just so cool being able to directly reference sites and ways to download on Lemmy, rather than dancing around the topic on Reddit.

You know, in Jerboa, I can’t even access half the settings. Just doesn’t let me scroll. Don’t know if it’s just me.

Archive.is is useful, for sure. Another option that I have used for a long time is BypassPaywalls. It works on Firefox, as well as Chromium based browsers. https://github.com/iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome

Hopefully as Google is now indexing lemmy.world, more people will see it while searching and come hang out.
