wait i forgot the internet is full of dumb cunts who make assumptions before talking
The point was to make her experience being ridiculed in the same way she ridiculed other people. It's easy to ridicule other people's hobbies and interests because those things are by nature easy to ridicule. Having even basic god damn theory of mind implies that you realise that other people are different to you in ways you'll never understand, but makes sense for them.
How'd you do at reading my intentions, mind reader? Don't say that there's no way you could have known that, like by idk... FUCKING ASKING?
how about we fucking leave people alone for whatever harmless meandering bullshit they spend their time doing?
you moderate lemmy communities in your free time so let's calm the fuck down
Reread my message since my last edit. I'm not arguing that at all; I'm simply saying that if the open source Fediverse wants to appeal to a wider audience, it needs to appeal to the needs and wants of that audience. That's not the same as merely federating with a closed source instance that already has that appeal.
When I want to interact with other people I go outside. I don't try and buy clothes at the fucking soup store.
Your argument was that people aren't using servers that run FLOSS federated software is because they're not aware of them. My argument is that the people who aren't aware are also people who wouldn't use those servers even if they knew.
The people who run their own mail servers are massive nerds, the people who are on Mastodon are also massive nerds. This status quo won't change just because a megacorp adopts ActivityPub (in fact, you eloquently bring to attention how everyone uses Gmail or Hotmail, and basically no individual runs their own mail server*). So if that's your argument, the original commenter's point still stands.
*Moreover I've heard that because of this monopoly on email, sending email from a mail server you run to the big providers without it immediately getting sent to spam, if delivered at all, is basically impossible.
Why would anyone join Lemmy/Mastodon if they could join Threads instead for the same content? Normal people don't care that your shit is FLOSS or decentralised, they just want convenience.
Continued, by using factually incorrect points to propagate what should be a thought provoking thesis statement, you undermine the cause you claim to support.
OP's post is self-serving at best, it's an orgy for those whose interests are already aligned. Seeing this, onlookers roll their eyes, "are these people actually stupid?"
Outside-in, this government is fucking hilarious. Each time I see one of these I wonder if they're going to ban modern medicine next, in favour of... idfk like drinking cow piss or something?
These maps are reminiscent of the accuracy and care with how the British divided up nations half way across the world.
Hi, fruux.com is what you're looking for.
Most email services allow you to forward mail to other addresses, and download all your mail to move it to another provider.
Can I just enjoy a fuckin game without being browbeat on DEI garbage?
The article is about sloppy journalism, not what you, personally, are allowed to enjoy, you illiterate fuckhead.
It's a bit of an ordeal on the server-side of things if you don't know what SELinux does. These days "is SELinux fucking something up?" is a regular on my troubleshooting list, though.
Child marriage is illegal where I live, so I don't have to worry about this
