Thanks for linking me three post. I have just added schadenfreude rules and also rules up which I can imagine may changed overtime.

But that being said, I finally got my PieFed account sorted (excuse to try to see what the fuss is about with PieFed) and made the community, [email protected]

Any feedback to improve the community is welcome btw

He is “just a meme now”, said some. Many others rolled their eyes, describing him as someone who still pops up online but doesn’t matter any more.

I’m glad (especially younger people) are waking up. I remember when I used to be in college like couple years ago, my classmates worship Andrew Tate which made me so uncomfortable as someone that is queer and knows he is homophobic. One of the many reasons why I dropped out.

Is most IRC’s chatroom active nowadays? I have been meaning to try other alternatives to Discord but always find them to be very hit and miss

You joking, another one?

Jokes beside, I wish they just leave Toy Story alone. Toy Story 3 to me felt like the real ending of the series and 4th film is meh…

Beside the triggers, I really did like the Steam controller. My favourite is the touchpad which makes noises which I associated with Fallout which is oddly pleasing to hear

I mean, I have seen online of people playing older Windows games on Linux, Steam Deck especially. Even though it most likely not as huge market compared to [insert new game], there’s still fair share people that would buy the old game, even if it may be troublesome to run especially on Windows 10/11.

My biggest bet is that Tai Ericson (The artist of that portrait) got Harry Potter second-hand somewhere which I sometimes see them in charity shops.

Refusing to use social media like Snapchat, Instagram & Twitter. Major downside is my generation is mostly using them so I know fewer Zoomers on the Fediverse but honestly, I would take that over me comparing my body to guy’s fitness picture and feeling insecure about it. Also, I barely interact with people I know in my high school and I to some extent, wish to be forgotten from them. Some really have messed with my mental health, that’s all I will say.

Also, Fedi.Video has some decent playlist of various video topics. I need to try use PeerTube more

One of the YouTuber, JacksFlim, does a newsletter called ‘Credit The Creators’ at Substack (I wish it elsewhere than that god-awful platform but I digress) which every week, it shows few videos created by small creators which you vote for which one gets the featured in the next article.

What if we made a distro called Doors as a replacement for windows, but don’t call it a distro? We don’t even call it Linux. We just called it Doors.

So basically what Google did with ChromeOS? (Being quiet that it just a Linux distro) Yeah, no. I prefer distro that is transparent that it is Linux and doesn’t try to make out or as vocal that their still a Linux distro.

• “Normies” as I associate people who use that word a lot to be pretentious.
• “Lolcow” which has history of Kiwi Farm user using that word to describe someone and cyberbully as well as dox them.
• “Chav” as I feel classist to still use that term but as someone that’s both working-class and lives in a rough area in UK, it hard to not describe some people as that term as christ… they are aggressive, homophobic and transphobic.

• BlockTube: Allows you to block YouTube Channels and Video as using “Do Not Recommend Channel” doesn’t exactly work
• Bitwarden - Loves the auto-fill feature
• uBlacklist - More easier to block URL result on various search engine. Only use it as I can’t be arsed tried to learn how to manually make filter on uBlock and want something that I can block Daily Mail on my search with just a click. It’s just the job done so happy to use it.

I feel torned about it. As someone that did experience doing breathplay from my abusive Ex which wasn’t consensual, it is scary how people who watches them forget that porn (especially more hardcore one) aren’t real and just wants to do without any further research of how you do it as safely you can. It’s beyond wreckless for those who don’t do it but still asked their partners to take part. Safety is key in BDSM.

That being said, I do feel like the issue with porn is that the adult industry is really exploitive to adult star, women especially. It needs to more regulation for both the studio that produce it as well as the website especially that hosted those videos from shady porn makers on their website. Banning strangling in porn isn’t going to solve it, it’s a half-assed effort at best.

1. Lack of granular privacy / profile control

I mean, Lemmy is based on Reddit which you publicly discuss a topic. I’m not sure how having options to create a comment private benefits Lemmy at all unless you can give me a reason.

2. Poor content discovery / lack of niche communities / limited diversity

To be fair on Lemmy, it is still new in compassion to Reddit so there would be as fewer communities compared to Reddit. If you don’t mind being a moderator, you can always create a community which I can see some Lemmings would like to join.

3. Fragmentation across instances / duplication of communities

I won’t lie, it does confused me a bit as I tend to try at least find one that’s more active and post from there. Also, it runs by different moderators which some their decision you may not be fond of so at least you have the same topic of the community but on different instance.

8. Over-representation of particular content types (US-news, memes, agenda posts) and low content-quality

Read my opinion at point 2, think that pretty relevant. But yes, I agree there’s lot of US-Based news and lucky for me, there’s both an Lemmy instance and community for people in Britain (I’m born there) so it’s nice reading news from my own country beside how incompetent Keir Starmer is.

The best if you want is following World News community or make one for whatever country you’re in and try advertised it on Lemmy (please don’t spam it on random threads, that won’t be cool.)

I’m getting Déjà vu as it reminds me of someone on Mastodon posting a graph of Mastodon’s daily users going down. Can’t remember if it OP of that post (Mastodon post, not this Lemmy one) or a news article that was like “Is this a downfall for Mastodon?”. Nope, it’s still around and I will argue, Mastodon is at it’s own lane which feels unfair it get compared to Twitter which feels like an Apple and Oranges compassion

Nope, they was abusive and controlling to me. I’m glad I did dump them via texts

I have low self-esteem and that’s from just people been shitty to me. I could go on but I don’t want to trauma dump (at least, try to prevent myself from doing it).

That being said, I’m planning to get therapy, go to more social events if I have the energy to do so and maybe next year, try get back to swimming. I stopped around when I was in lockdown in 2020 and I forgot about it since.

I will also say is that major reason why Steam has an monopoly is that they have invested their resources to streamline the PC gaming experience and also make gaming on Linux better as well as Steam controller which also allows us to remap control layout.

None the alternative does that and are just another DRM-Storefront. That’s my major pet peeve with Steam alternative like Epic Games Launcher. Closest we have is GOG for to be able to download offline installer and most the games are DRM-free. Otherwise, I just would rather buy games on Steam as it just works for me… 🤷
