  • 7 GOP attorneys general threaten Target over Pride display

    Jump

  • Let’s all unite around pride in America instead of falling into the trap of dividing along lines of identity politics.

    They say, totally not engaging in "identity politics" 🙄

  • What are the bad patterns of Reddit to never repeat on Lemmy?

    Jump

  • As others have stated, it's very little to do with being "prudes" and much more with being tired of horny anonymous posters just being horny. If it were something informative, that's a whole other thing.

  • What should we do about Threads?

    Jump

  • Of either Threads instances or instances that defederate Threads, not that I know of, but I expect it'll be a thing in short time.

  • What should we do about Threads?

    Jump

  • Lemmy doesn't need to compete. Hell, it can't compete. It's an open-source platform developed basically as volunteer work. Meta (and Threads) has millions of dollars and massive teams behind it.

    Thankfully, we don't need Meta. We just need to do what we can to resist. The best we can hope for and what we should aim for is to limit the impact/damage Threads will have on our segment of the Fed. How to do that, I'm not sure exactly, but my first instinct is to block off anything corporate. Any interaction at all is basically just asking monied interests to take over.

  • Right now? Have a Lemmy account on an instance that defederates anything Threads.

  • What is the best way to harass free roaming cats that stalk our bird feeders?

    Jump

  • Those are findings specifically from industrial areas, and specifies that it is levels over 75db that are dangerous for the most sensitive individuals (younger people). I'm not sure what the db exposure for a service on one's yard would be, but I doubt it's on the same level as working in a factory.

  • YSK: Your Lemmy activities (e.g. downvotes) are far from private

    Jump

  • How would one find this? Is it just a console command?

  • What are the cybersecurity weaknesses of the Fediverse?

    Jump

  • There’s finally an open github issue that seems to be acknowledged, but it’ll be some time before this feature (if ever) ever gets implemented.

    Fwiw, the devs seem quite open to (even directly requesting) people coding features they want and having them added into the main code in future versions. So if anyone is able and willing to make a working version of that for Lemmy, it could be added quite soon, really.

  • This app.

  • Fair enough. Glad you got out!

  • I gotta ask, why did you never look at third-party options if you found it so miserable?

  • Lemmy.world is adapting to Twitter's strategy!

    Jump

  • Funny thing, when you mock someone with dumb jokes, people "assume" you're mocking them. Weird, I know, but it's true.

  • Lemmy.world is adapting to Twitter's strategy!

    Jump

  • Easier to just mock the volunteers running the server. That's more reasonable 🙄

  • Red Dead Redemption 1 Remaster rumors

    Jump

  • Been waiting for this for over a decade now. Not gonna celebrate until it's confirmed.

  • Me Deleting My Apollo App Today

    Jump

  • I couldn't leave my app in the same spot, otherwise I'd keep opening it (or trying to open it, after tomorrow) out of habit.

  • Tried to look at an Amber Alert today

    Jump

  • You're right! It would be awful if it was implemented in literally the worst way possible 🙄

    C'mon dude. I'm obviously not advocating for 1984 style government announcements forcefed into people's eyeballs. Setting up a government only twitter-esque platform wouldn't be that terrible. Hell, with something like Mastadon or Lemmy, it could integrate easily into what people are already using.

  • Tried to look at an Amber Alert today

    Jump

  • I've been constantly amazed at how normalized it's gotten for not only other companies, but for governments, to rely so much on sites like Twitter, Facebook, etc, for essential information like Amber Alerts. Shit like this hopefully makes people more aware of how treacherous it is to rely on corporate services for public services. Maybe the gov will finally institute their own web services for public information (unlikely) or at least enact boundaries on services that have been widely adopted (slight more likely).

  • Terraria Dev: After 12 years the game still sells like hot cakes. There is so much demand it makes it hard to move on

    Jump

  • Can't really blame them. They've also been killing it with support, still adding content all this time later. I wonder if they're getting tired of it.

    Hard to know how success correlates to $$$ for them, but I wonder if they could do auxiliary projects alongside their Terraria development with a bigger team.

  • Musk's delusional one, apparently.

  • It's not a suggestion. It's what they're doing right now.
