It’s all being fished out of the same Chinese landfill regardless

If lemmy didn’t take over the world after the Reddit schism then I don’t think twitter will ever die either. Twitter users have been given every reason to leave yet there’s already lots of people paying money to the person they hate the most in the world just to use it. And most of those people aren’t really people anymore, they’re twitter users on every level of their being. It would be like a blobfish out of water.

The entire division was cleared by the Canadian government in the 80s

A suckless fan I see

I don’t touch it either for two reasons that go together.

1. It’s a pig sty before I even get there.
2. Nothing in there will ever be included in backups for that reason.

My cloud drive has SO much random flstudio crap in it. That’s the worst program in the world when it comes to that. If you install their program they think they own your hard drive.

Also while I’m bitching about windows folders, why did they make it so weird to get to your home folder? It feels like we aren’t supposed to know it exists anymore.

It sucked before too. Certain types of notification were only viewable in the app. If you had one, it would give you an orange envelope on the mobile site, but nothing new could be seen inside. And it wouldn’t even tell you what’s happening so I just wrote off the entire notification system as broken. So if I got a reply on Reddit I wouldn’t know because there’s no indication. I still won’t ever install the app and I’m now less likely to do so because I hate push notifications.

This is what I mean. It’s not healthy to be surrounded by so much hate all the time.

Thanks for the community recommendations, they seem like great points to explore from. I also love Linux and tech in general, otherwise I probably wouldn’t be here. But I have other interests too. That’s something I find to be decent about tildes surprisingly, considering you need to be a massive tech nerd just to access one.

Tankies and American democrats are scaring away the hoes. Source: I’m a hoe that has barely been coming here lately. There’s not enough people here for niche communities to thrive, and the front page has been getting worse and worse. Today I saw this post on the front page, pretty close to the top.

I’d like to be clear that I don’t care who americans voted for 7 years ago, but that’s not why I don’t think I should be seeing this. It’s just, sheesh man. THIS is what the community wants and thinks is important in 2023? I’m trying to find a niche amongst THIS?

It’s very similar to my problem with Gemini and every other “alt tech” platform I’ve tried to join. Worst case scenario it becomes a sewer for everyone who got banned from other sites for political extremism. Best case scenario, you end up with nothing but the demographic of upper class americans who do nothing but sit on their computers all day, which is not my scene either.

I’m starting to wonder if I should just leave the internet altogether.

Every weed smoker had a zippo they didn’t use because it tasted so bad. They’re fidget toys more than anything. And the “windproof” feature doesn’t work all that well compared to a bic lighter. Who cares if it keeps a tiny flame alive if it’s not going to ignite anything else. You have to shelter it anyway.
