I saw someone in a reddit thread about Lemmy earlier complaining that it wasn’t “user friendly” enough because someone posted an infograph on how the Fediverse works. Even though all the infograph was explaining was that you log into one instance and can freely interact with the rest from there…

I’ve always thought the internet should be more decentralized and being able to log in without seeing tons of bots, reposts and propaganda is literally the best aspect of Lemmy for me. This feels like what social media was meant to be. I wish there was an easier way to get people to understand that.

I love them. Being able to check my calendar events, email and grocery list at a glance is invaluable to me because if they weren’t right there on my homescreen I’d completely forget about them

Look like, I assume, even though I had no pictures of myself or anything that could be mistaken for one on my profile. But he wasn’t wrong about me being fruity so 🤷‍♂️

Still don’t understand what the california roll part was supposed to mean though

Funniest way to get permabanned

And even though there was actually no threat of violence, disputing the ban will do nothing because there are no humans reviewing the ban appeals (speaking from experience)

Yup. Was permabanned for “advocating for violence” by saying a certain green hatted man was justified in his actions. And before that, a week long ban for directly quoting Rump’s unhinged rambling during the debate to make fun of what he said.

Freedom of speech =/= freedom of consequences. If people choose not to associate with you because you support & attempt to normalize a movement that has historically committed mass genocide, or - god forbid - they speak negatively about you in an internet forum 5 years down the line, those people are just exercising their free speech.

Limiting them yes, paywalling them though?

I was just saying the other day it feels like he gets through all that needs to be said in the first half of the video and then spends the rest ranting/reiterating himself. But I think he has good talking points
