There are dozens of us!

You have to install them manually, but it’s pretty easy thanks to yast and zypper.

I found it way easier compared to arch or even manjaro.

Why are there no sidewalks?

Signal uses the same E2E encryption as WhatsApp and is also not Open-Source. One could argue that not being owned by Meta makes it inherently more private, to which I would somewhat agree.

The most private Messaging-App would be some kind of federated Chat, like Jabber or Matrix, that you or a collection of family/friends can self-host.

Unfortunately, nobody uses those ¯\(ツ)/¯

Both Armour of God movies, and both Drunken Masters would be my personal pick.

That’s peak Pizza for me! Especially with both pepperoni and sucuk (turkish garlic salami that’s basically available in every Pizza delivery place in Germany).

I would consider myself a normie, specifically regarding reddit, as I only spent my time lurking there and already have more comments on lemmy than on 7 years on reddit.

The current vibe and atmosphere just feels kind of special. Almost everyone is figuring stuff out, no one is down voted for asking some basic questions and I don’t have the feeling that some grammar nazi is immediately around the corner to correct my many mistakes, just to get that sweet, sweet karma.

Lol, I think the first one would definitely have flown over my head without explanation. Also, I don’t know if it’s instance specific, but I can’t seem to find my reputation on my profile, neither on feddit.de/lemmy-ui or Jerboa. Where do you get that information?

Maybe it could be useful for moderators or admins to access that information? But that also poses the risk of accounts “reputation-farming” like on reddit to sell the account to some bot-farm that uses it for astro-turfing or sth similar.

I think the lack of a karma equivalent, and thus karma farming, results in much more thought out and unique posts/comments.

Hosting the images directly on the lemmy/kbin instance creates imo unnecessary traffic to the servers. I don’t know if admins can disable selfhosting images, but considering the low-powered machines almost every instance is currently hosted on, I would assume it would be in everyones self-interest to outsource image hosting (at least for now).
