Extraordinary well put.I wish more people would understand that building communities by attracting users from outside is much-much-much more important than to brag about fediverse in your small nerd circle and defederating another server.

If you want more people to donate, you’ve got to become more popular, and lemmy needs donations afaik

Listen. Just fuckin listen to me. The moment I joined lemmy every enthusiast was singing praise to the fediverse and how it’s easy to maintain the freedom of speach and yada yada yada. What it turned out to be is just constant quarrels between instances, defederations and crap like that while lemmy still fucking struggles to even become a mere shadow of reddit. I fucking hate reddit, I think spez should be covered in fire ants, but by god, looking at how insufferable most vocal lemmy users are, I may get back to reddit, probably as many other lemmy users already did.

Drosophila are awesome! Been working on them for a long time:)

Is it a humblebrag? Were you making this meme while stroking your willie, OP?

Flat design is just soulless crap

It’s a failed crowdfunding campaign, their last tweet is from 2017

Yep, and they are actually awesome! I personally hate washing dishes when there’s a pile of them in front of you because of all the splashing. This layout makes cleaning so much easier. Additionally, you can put up some stuff for defrosting in the second sink

Nah, it just shows that the masks have fallen down

Fucking hell yeah, brother, volition is the best

Honestly, I would fucking pay for subscription if those cunts would’ve let me just to play original ow. Blizztards are the worst

Omfg, I’m 100% sure there are corporate cunts who are saying that

Larry, somebody shat in your pants and, spoiler alert, it is you

Once I was stopped by Danish authorities in the airport when I returned from a trip. They took my residence permit data in order to establish whether I get welfare and was travelling abroad which is prohibited in that case. Didn’t feel like being in a democratic state afterwards at all

Telegram’s default settings are still way way better for your privacy than whatsapp which doesn’t even has any additional layer of security unlike tg

Also, never sold any data to any authorities, all the security issues came from users not paying attention to privacy settings. The stigmatisation of telegram as ‘russian messenger’, even though the team that made it and maintains it left russia a long ago, prevents this software from getting its rightly deserved popularity

Whatsapp doesn’t have even a tiniest bit of telegram functionality, most importantly, bots. The person who made this post bitches about weirdly specific functionality that doesn’t affect you at all. I have a telegram premium (which is dirty cheap) and I never knew I could ban sending VMs, nor I had any reason to do so. Even in the free version you can restrict people who can write to you (e.g. only your contacts), if you don’t like to get VMs from your friends, just tell them. Also, security-wise, we all know that whatsapp gives your data to whatever US authorities ask and tg never did anything like that. All the security risks came from users not paying attention to privacy settings, like exposing their mobile number.

This is the best loss I’ve ever seen

You’ll also have an awesome gf soon, my man, I believe in you
