  • Of course I have, I have been using it the whole time, non-vegan, it is perfectly descriptive and already used.

    I heavily curtailed my meat consumption to the point of eating it a few times a year or so, sure not a gold star vegan, but I and no doubt, others are turned off from being lumped into the same group as steak-every-day ‘red blooded’ self-described ‘carnivores’.

    Thanks for sharing how you were persuaded to become vegan, I stopped eating meat following learning of the sheer inefficiency and waste of the meat rearing process, but if you’re saying you respond to ridicule, then more power to you. You should know though, that most people don’t find those methods persuasive.

  • Personally, I take a bit of offense to you drawing equivalence between the distinction of vegans and non-vegans and autistic and allistic people, asexuals vs allosexual people, or trans and cis people. The latter three here being immutable facts of somebody’s being and lived experience, whereas veganism is merely an ideology- no matter how laudable that ideology is, the fact is that it is a freely chosen aspect of their personality or beliefs.

    For that reason, southsamurai’s point still has merit that you haven’t addressed, that “carnist” is an attempt to form division and delineation needlessly. Those other examples you gave of descriptors ‘normal’ people take offence to (shame on them) are scientific terms. Carnist is a pure ideological term, and it gives serious hexbear “fucking libs” energy.

    If you claim your goal is to get more people into veganism, I would agree it is counterproductive - because non-vegans can become vegans, there’s no need for that othering language. Other descriptors for ‘normal’ people you list are purely descriptors and have utility for that reason, a cis person cannot be made into a trans person, a heterosexual cannot be made into a homosexual person.

  • How does one block instances using Mlem?

    Having tried several Lemmy clients, I can safely say that Mlem is my favourite in terms of user experience, except one, even though I am sure I’ve read this is possible in Mlem I cannot find how to block an instance, which was relatively easy to do in Memmy.

    It doesn’t appear to be an option in any settings menu, nor an option in an instance profile.

    If this isn’t, in fact, possible, I guess this post is a feature request then!

    Technical Support Request: website is spam refreshing without end

    Hi, for a while I’ve been having a serious problem with piped on Firefox iOS client (not been able to test on other platforms yet as my PC has shat itself). I am registered to rafo.tech and while that might instance is up I don’t have any issue. I once tried to log in to kavin.rocks by mistake and now the kavin.rocks page spam refreshes literally every second and there is nothing I can do to stop it. Clearing my browsing data did seem to solve the problem, however when I tried register an alternate account on kavin.rocks so I could have a backup site with my subs for when rafo.tech is down it is straight back to its spam refreshing behaviour. This seems to have effectively banned me from ever making an account or using kavin.rocks.

    I was wondering if this is a common occurrence and I’m missing an easy fix. How can I unfuck my situation?
