Seeing the other post here about YouTuber that went downhill and seeing content creators I am familiar with makes me sad. But how about those that still makes great, high quality content?
I grew up watching pewdiepie playthroughs. Then when I was in my late teens early 20s he went too edgy and I lost interest.
He has changed dramatically since. He’s content is very wholesome again, he’s now a father (wth) and he’s living in Japan. I looove their Japan vlogs. So much so that it gave me the confidence to visit Japan this year… Twice.
Fruits. I don’t have the habit of eating any fruit. It’s super unhealthy and when I do remember to buy fruit when grocery shopping, I am always surprised how good it tastes, only to forget about it for a couple more months…
If signal gets the new username feature, this just might be what i do, so fricking tired of people just blindly giving random apps and websites their contact permissions and they get my contact as well, and there’s nothing i can do about it
I did just that about 7 or so years ago. Only gave my number to family members and really close people (maybe 5 at most). Also deleted all my social media.
One of the best decisions of my life.
Unfortunately, I was just getting started on “the real world” and would get any job thrown my way. One of them required me to reply to my manager on WhatsApp so I ended having to create one and give them my number. I’ve since left that job and I’m now no longer a junior in my field, but still feels feels bad on my record :(
“Our philosophy is that if you can’t open it, you don’t own it. Once you disassemble, repair, and put back together your laptop or iPod, you have a much better understanding of what goes into it. It’s astounding how just 20 minutes of work can make an iPod good as new – but most people have no idea that there are...
I use this all the time to fix my electronics :) great resource and their tools are good too. A bit expensive but at least you know you’re supporting a good cause.
I’m from the EU and sadly this has become more and more the norm here. I remember a time when we had very little SUVs here but now they seem to be everywhere. And it’s a really busy capital city, so the streets are narrow. I can’t understand why people would buy big cars here…
I see some Linux but I’m subscribed to a lot of techy communities. Self host, programming etc. So it’s kinda normal.
Could be the default view on each instance… On my first account I subbed to a lot of different communities on different instances so I saw all the crap. Eventually due to all the politics bullshit I just migrated to my current instance which has hexbear and lemmygrad blocked so it’s been a lot better.
But even so, I always see a bunch of politics crap on the memes community.
Yeah, I’m kinda mad at all the Spez/3rd party app stuff, but the constant hate has got me thinking about leaving lemmy. It’s sad because I like the idea behind lemmy but people have no respect.
I like hearing different sides of things but absolutely everything is political here and it’s either black or white. Ffs
Honestly, blahaj also seems to have a lot of deranged people. A lot of great people too, but with my instance defederating from Hexbear and lemmygrad, when I see those kinda of comments it’s usually blahaj.
They aren’t as bad though of course. It’s bearable.
Just got back from Japan. I’m always surprised when I’m in the middle of nowhere and the public restrooms have heated sitting, deodorizer, bidet, background sounds. Like… Wtf? That’s better than my toilet at home. And I’m not even from the US 🙃
Same, I usually don’t really participate but I love seeing people discuss political opinions objectively and willing to learn.
But hex\grad people were always “What do you mean [any post] isn’t political??!?! It’s clearly political because [absolutely unreasonable reason]”
The ragebait/sea lioning was getting too much. Eventually my mailbox was full of those trolls so I just went on a different instance that had both banned and I’m a lot happier. On the downside it’s now closer to an echo chamber but I guess I’ll just browse the memes and random crap then. I can work with that…
I use Firefox and also got that pop-up. Eventually I just grew tired of clicking the “X” button so I went on uBlock origin and added that stupid banner and the banner background to the blacklist.
It’s like nothing ever happened. And if shit continues to get worse, either someone comes up with a fix somehow, or I’ll just find a way to run ReVanced YouTube apk on my pc or something. I don’t care if I have to emulate it somehow.
Also, on mobile GrayJay is a good alternative to ReVanced. Made by LouisRossmann’s team apparently.
I think the mods on this community should implement a rule or maybe a suggestion that people expand on the topic. I’m saying this because it does seem like a topic that would interest me, but without context and having no previous knowledge of it, I’ll just move on to the next post.
I’ve had that in happen to me where I try to click on something and it opens a new page. I go back to the previous page. Aim for the link I want to click… Press it… refreshClick the wrong one again…
Sometimes this can go on for 3 or 4 times. I feel like I’m going insane when it happens. How can something so simple be so complicated
Yeah there was this news story a long time ago of 2 girls that were stuck on an elevator in Lisbon (Portugal). Apparently they looked up some number on their phones for Lisbon but since they were from the US it suggested some random city named Lisbon there. They spent a lot of time trying to explain where the elevator was located until they realised it wasn’t the same Lisbon.
(I think it’s a true story. Might just be an urban legend from Lisbon I guess 🤷♂️)
As someone from Portugal, this was the first thing to come to my mind. Also, the show is nice overall. I just don’t enjoy the American guy’s forced accent. Joe was his name or nickname I think. It feels too forced borderline cringe.
Which YouTuber still creates high-quality videos to this day?

Anyone else feels like they want to destroy their old sim and never give their contact to anyone ever again?

Those of you with lesser-known types of jobs...what do you do?
Also, how did you get into it, and what sort of education or certifications (if any) did you need?...

Why don't public restroom stalls have OPEN/OCCUPIED indicators like porta potties do?
I hate peaking under the stalls or knocking doors to figure it out. The answer is so simple.

What's a button you hate tapping or clicking accidentally?
For me, it’s “Clear Storage”. Sometimes I try to clear the cache of some mobile game I’m playing and end up deleting all my progress instead.
