No, actually, I used reddit just to pass time, never really engaged in the community, and without this whole debacle I wouldn't have found out about lemmy and the fediverse as a whole, which is really exciting and a new part of the internet (for me) that feels like a breath of fresh air after years of everything being so centralized around very few companies, I'm getting a vibe of the internet from 15-20 years ago, exploring the wild west of the internet.

Godspeed and may you succeed on your mysterious quest, poopless hero.

Mate we're all a bunch of overly excited kids with a cool new toy, once we're all here for a few weeks and the magic wears off these threads will die down, just give it time and let people have about their new toy

The actual procedure is actually calling the suspect to stop, first in Hebrew, then in Arabic, if the suspect does not stop then the soldier loads a round in the chamber, next a warning shot to the air, and then shooting at the suspect's legs, all the while calling for the suspect to stop. IDF has a tendency to... Expedite this procedure.

This is horrifying, this is straight up blaspheny

I run both windows 10 and linux on different machines, I legit had a nightmare last night that my windows machine updated itself to windows 11.

I want to downvote you so, so bad, so take an upvote and leave.

If you can't beat 'em... Fuck 'em!

I want that sentence on a t-shirt!

I've been here for only two days and honestly? I'm not going back to reddit, even if everything works out great over there. I've got more sense of a community in lemmy in two days than what I felt in 7 years in reddit.

Oh god, that reminds me of something that happened a few years ago!
there's a road in my area that is the only road that leads to a college, so it was pretty much the road with the heaviest traffic in the area, it was in bad condition for years and there were always talks of fixing that road. Covid comes around and the college is going completely remote for about a year and a half, which is a perfect time to work on the road but no work is done, on the first day the college reopens they start to work on the road.

It's fucking lit in here. Also fuck Spez.

I don't have a roomba, I don't want a roomba, but I'm all in for roomba facts, gimme dem deets!

This was back when I was in the military, I finished my shift, went to our dormitories, pissed with the door open while someone was taking a shower and went to my room, found out I sad in the girl's dormitories.

That's still true for a lot of druze I the Golan heights, and while it doesn't have a drastic effect on their daily lives, traveling abroad is an absolute nightmare

The big keyboard played us for an absolute fools!

Bing chat is also pretty good, helped me with a technical problem we've been chasing for a few days at work, couldn't find anything on Google but bing's first answer solved it for us.

Oh man I fucking love GA! I found out about them back when I was 12 in some parkour video on youtube and fell in love immediately, and when I was 25 I finally got to see them live in Hungary, it was fucking awesome, a dream come true

Look mate, I get you, but I also get your friend, I used reddit pretty much the same as your friend, just lurked, didn't used any third party apps, but I saw things go to shit and decided I want none of that, and let's be real, the site offed itself a while ago, the people that moved to lemmy and kbin realized that, and where techie enough to adapt to the new environment. Some people on reddit will realize that sometime, some won't, and that's perfectly fine, they will either adapt to the fediverse, move back to where they were before or stay on the decaying site, but whatever they, and your friend do, there's no reason for hostility, especially between you and your friend, the deed had been done, and now we get to rebuild our communities in such a great way that we couldn't ever imagined over reddit.
