  • People complain about the algorithms on other social media but you can see here exactly why they have them.

    Without them it becomes hard to get connected to things that interest you.

    For Lemmy I’ve managed to build a decent feed by browsing all and subscribing to communities I like.

    You just have to do the algorithms job now.

    As for the big communities it’s exactly what happened to the old internet. It used to be a large collection of individual sites but discovery was hard. So the front pages of the internet started popping up.

    I expect the same thing will happen to the fediverse eventually. It’s just a better user experience sadly.








  • My friend joined a very cult-like Christian church.

    One of those ones where they pray and people start shaking and shit.

    I went to his wedding, it was fucking surreal haha

    But every single one of their members had serious problems with alcohol or drugs. Including my friend.

    Now it’s great they help their members quit but they very clearly take advantage of people at rock bottom to convert them.



  • Now I don’t know what I can be, what should I be?

    Labels are a convenient way to help others understand. They don’t define you.

    It would be simpler if we just used words to describe who we’re attracted to that don’t involve our own gender tbh.

    You’re a non binary person who is attracted to women. If people want to use a word to make it easier to understand for them it doesn’t change anything about you.
