LemmyNSFW (nothing against it, but I’m not here for that)

These are the only two

Weed is much safer than alcohol, even if you smoke it

LinkOpensChest_wav,

Tbf I smoked the devil’s lettuce once, and now I’m commenting in a shitposting forum, so I guess it really does have negative effects

LinkOpensChest_wav,

This is false. Alcohol is never beneficial. This is a debunked myth.

LinkOpensChest_wav,

If that’s what you think this says, then you completely misunderstand anarchism.

This book describes current and past societies that have functioned using anarchist principles such as horizontality, mutual aid, none of which are utopian, but all of which are significantly more equitable than systems like capitalism, feudalism, authoritarianism, and statehood.

Just one more pack of Flarp

Except sites deliberately break themselves if they can’t harvest your data. You can’t even browse reddit on Tor anymore.

Even merely using Fennec on my phone, I encounter shopping sites where I actually plan to spend money refuse to work because they can’t recognize “my device.” Or they refuse to sell me products where I live if I’m using a VPN. Creepy-ass behavior.

I suppose the only way out is through, and we should simply refuse to use sites that are designed in such a way, but it feels like a losing battle.

Horses are also privacy friendly, unlike your smart car

I can’t believe 9gag is still up and running

Plus, he’s got massive influence on his fanboys who worship his every move

Some Republicans are good at deceiving others into thinking they’re good people.

I live in a red state. None of them are good people. If they were, they wouldn’t align with a party of hate.

LinkOpensChest_wav,

Don’t worry, it’s r/relationship_advice, so it’s entirely made up

LinkOpensChest_wav,

I strongly suspect that if one actually had to relocate with a new identity, that the last place I’d seek guidance would be from some click-thirsty YouTuber.

LinkOpensChest_wav,

“Libertarian” always seems like a misnomer. Libertarians only want people like themselves to experience liberty. They aim to do nothing to address inequities like social and systemic discrimination against LGBT+ people, BIPOC, women, and others. They aim to do nothing to address poverty. It’s social darwinism at its ugliest. This is why they are practically indistinguishable from conservatives here in the US – the way they arrive may look different, but the outcomes are the same. At best, they are wearing blinders. At worst, they actively support the power structures and systems that result in things like poverty and abuse.

People who legitimately do seek liberty should instead be looking to things like anarchism, which is interested in addressing the root causes of all of these problems, such as hierarchies and the state.

LinkOpensChest_wav,

Maybe the doomers are right and humanity really was a mistake

Did you know..?

DuckDuckGo has two non-javascript versions of their search engine and both of them are very lightweight, especially the lite version.

You can access them via:

Unfortunately, both of them alter search results based on locational data rather than merely responding to user input

The only ones I’ve found that don’t are Mojeek and some SearXNG instances

LinkOpensChest_wav,

The link that supposedly proves Mozilla has “ceased caring about technology” indicates nothing of the sort.

This whole article seems completely unhinged and untrustworthy.

LinkOpensChest_wav,

This blackout has really shown which subs have actual in-touch moderators, and which ones are just the admins' puppy dogs

A while ago, I had a comment auto-removed on WPT and got a message it was because my account was "not in good standing." When I messaged the WPT mods, they explained that they were test piloting a new tool the admins plan to use. For example, if you have a throwaway email address, no email address, or are connecting via VPN, you may be "not in good standing."

With things like that on the horizon, even if they roll back on what they're doing now, we're still not likely to have a very good time on that site.

I can't blame the mods who are trying to make change through protest (and who may not even be aware of the "not in good standing" BS), but I don't plan to stick around, and I don't foresee a very bright future for reddit at all.

LinkOpensChest_wav,

I do understand that point of view, but the fact that they're piloting a really invasive tool on behalf of the admins and subsequently refused to go black -- these make me feel far less charitable

The whole site is bot infested! Especially the large subs, but I've personally had scambots pop into my posts even on smaller subreddits.

People who say they won't leave reddit because "there's no good alternative" really have their head in the sand about how bad it really is. Nearly every alternative I've seen suggested is at least better than reddit (except for the really far-right ones like voat).
