Loving the anti-tankie memes, establishing this community to be based af

Still getting used to the fact that I'm seeing Mastodon posts while browsing Lemmy. Really loving this federated infrastructure design!

I don't mind too much, I didn't know TorGuard was blocking that traffic or logging American users but now I do. So I appreciate the article in that regard but the post should've been titled like "Reminder that TorGuard tracks American users" or something rather than being presented as new info imo.

You're right, a former mod of The_Donald was trying to become a mod of r/aww this week during the protests. So that's exactly what's already happening, Reddit is about to get a whole lot worse.

I'm on Lemmy now so I'll watch from afar with 🍿

They’re using whatever’s built into the OS

looks at Edge

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but isn't that just more Chromium?

Barbara is right though, fireworks are a stupid tradition that can be better served with drone light shows or projection displays. They look way cooler, better for the environment, and don't cause unnecessary stress for dogs and war survivors (soliders or civilians can suffer PTSD from war).

Fuck fireworks.

worst people in the universe

That's relative, I happen to think Chaos has great health and dental plans.

Is there a seamless way of linking to other instances?

Not really that I know of, not yet. Lemmy is still pretty janky, but it's our janky.

Yeah, same. I think they doth protest too much lol

It depends on which instance you're a part of. Some allow you to make communities (lemmy.world for one) and others restrict it to only admins can make them (Beehaw as an example).

I'm not sure why this three-year-old post is showing up now, but uh, if there are subreddits you still want to use after migrating to Lemmy you can set them up as an RSS feed. It's so much better and you don't give their site additional engagement or clicks. You can even click the article link from your RSS reader without ever having to go to Reddit. The only subreddit I still use is for my local metroplex/city, since there's not enough of my neighbors on the Fediverse yet. But now I can see every post as it comes in so I can keep up to date with what's going on with where I live and find out about deals and sales.

You just take the URL for the subreddit and add ".rss" to the end and that's it.

Example: "https://www.reddit.com/r/SubredditName.rss"

I'm a vers tyvm

I don't moderate anymore, but when I did it was the repeat rule violations that irritated me the most. I don't mind correcting people once, or twice, or even three times. But there's a limit. It feels like parenting, just listen to me the first time I say it, please.

I should start a new RimWorld colony.

There's ![email protected] and ![email protected] already. Still a little lacking in activity but they're growing.

See Mozingo? Nothin'

(this comment makes more sense if you can see both lemmy.world and beehaw comments lol)

This is a public facing forum platform, it's not meant to be a secure messaging platform. Now if you wanted to run your own Lemmy instance and not federate with anybody you could in theory make it secure from prying eyes.

Yes, correct. I'm not sure why you tried posting that as some sort of gotcha. It's much easier for a person to have accessed one of these streams than to change DNS and put on a VPN. While that is very easy for us and people in our circles, I think you're severely overestimating the technical prowess of the general population.

With Furry Fandom

"Feral discourse" is a common topic in the wider furry community, with some looking down on feral characters or creators. This has caused resentment among those who like more realistic-looking animals in cartoons, books and other forms of art. One thread on the Furaffinity forums asked for opinions on feral characters leading to a plethora of response of varied degree. Some members also...

Then:

Outside of Furry Fandom

Outside of Furry Fandom, controversy over ferals is much that same as the general controversy of Furry Fandom.

Lmao I love that they included the outside perspective and how accurate it is. Thanks for the explanation.

If we argue about necessity well just end up in the kind of argument that can logically lead to voluntary extinction.

This is doesn't make any sense and the strangest attempt at a red herring I've come across on Lemmy, there is no necessity. Period. It's still Independence Day whether or not you scare pets and veterans. You can celebrate with a BBQ like every other holiday. Basically you typed a lot of words just to say you don't care how your actions effect others, or that your two seconds of pleasure is worth the well being of animals and neighbors.
