I love how so many of us former reddit lurkers found a home on Lemmy/the fediverse. I have absolutely loved being a part of the greater community here, I don’t know how else to describe it but it feels like my Internet home. I love all you fellow nerds. Obligatory fuck spez.
It feels like mostly internet veterans and people that care to explain themselves to me. Less recent users that don’t know technology or are newer to social media that isn’t “mainstream”.
Absolutely, this is really well said. I think because of the barrier to entry on this platform we are all a little more invested and I am here for it. I’ve hated what social media has become (Myspace was peak imo) and I’m so delighted the fediverse exists.
Plot twist, he ordered and antidote for a poison that only kills people on Friday. He can’t afford the shipping and now is trying to see if he can just barely make it to receive the antidote.
Lemmy will replace lemmy. It’s federated and open source by design, so if any corpo manages to take over existing instances, people can just create and move to new ones. Lemmy is the endgame. Lemmy is the final software, the last forum.
/sok, maybe if a better software comes along it might replace it. But it’s still safe in theory from corporate takeovers
No, a traditional IRA would be even better for that. With a Roth, you can withdraw the principal without penalty since it was after-tax to begin with; it’s only the gains that you get punished for taking out. In contrast, any amount of withdrawal from a traditional account incurs a penalty (with a few exceptions, such as using it to buy your first house or whatever).
I have ₹8k in my bank account - that is how much I’ve earned from my stupid internship in four months. Used some of it for emergency reasons. Placements for CS have dropped by 70% in India. I’ve graduated with a useless degree. And I’m still jobless after graduating last September. Haven’t used my bank account in a year lol. Have a broken laptop and phone. Fuck the system.
I just reported people for transphobia and islamophobia, and they claimed it was abusing the report button so they banned me site-wide. They claimed it was a violation of the terms of service, but literally I checked and abusing the report button isn’t even a rule. It just seems to me like getting rid of the complainer was better than getting rid of the problem.
As soon as reddit links fall out of Google, I won’t even have to think about seeing it anymore. I also have it DNSBlocked because that’s the only way I am going to stay off of it. X too.
Nah, there’s a big difference between what and how much you’re allowed to block in V2 vs V3 - the current status V2 adblock is way outside the range of V3’s version.
I’d say V3 blockers can probably block at best 30% of what V2 can block. Which means it has to be selective. It essentially nuders the extension, making it worthless - an adblocker that only blocks some ads is not an adblocker at all. It’s more of an ad restrictor, and in heavily monetized sites it might not even be that.
