voat is still a thing?!

Edit: Just checked, it’s still a right wing shit hole. i thought it closed down a couple years ago though

cant argue with that

This was over a year ago now Jerboa may well be in a better state now. I can’t remember specific bugs but they were frequent and serious enough to frustrate me, a professional software tester, enough to move to a different app.

I started on jerboa, but ended up moving to connect because of the bugs.

I once asked a hairdresser for my usual short back and sides with a trim off the top.

She immediately got her clippers and started giving me a buzz cut.

She must have seen the look of my face because she stopped as the clippers got to the top of my head and asked me if i was alright.

I told her it’s too late now to change it now and to carry on. But i hated it.

Naturally the kids at school bullied me for it the next day.

These days i’m a slap head so dont have to worry about it anymore. Thanks, Male Pattern Baldness!!!

Every day is a vegetarian day for me

Signal’s desktop app is as horrendously unusably bad

I think this is a bit dramatic. I’ve been using it for years, no problems.

i’ve seen you say this more than once. do you have a source?

Yeah, like linus is a known cunt to work with, i’ll still update my kernel regularly though

There’s plenty of moderation there, it’s just highly biased.

There aren’t enough users on lemmy for a state actor to bother putting resources into controlling the narrative.

Why waste time on a few thousand lemmy users when there are literally millions of gullible boomers on facebook that actually vote based on what they consume on social media?

you can’t trust anyone to maintain source indefinitely. forking now just means everything has to be done twice

You don’t need to do a full lemmy code fork ffs. The problem is moderation style of a specific instance, just set up a new instance and defed from the problem instances.

Lemmy is far too small for any actual organized propaganda machines to target. These people are just zealots

i’ve noticed a butt load of lemmygrad names appearing as lemmy.ml these days. Seems they got tired of existing in their little de-federated bubble

I moved from .ml because of this. Haven’t had a ban since and can still interact with .ml communities

it’ll be nice when i can move somewhere that has a garden

it was nice seeing some gardening stuff pop up in my feed the other day rather than just a constant stream of facebook tier memes and tankie vs non-tankie arguing

Layoffs tend to precipitate big stock price jumps in my experience. Investors love job losses

couple years ago i bought a couple bedside lights and some crystal glasses from a charity shop on my lunch break.

i spent the rest of the day at my desk using them…
