Plenty of pro-Palestine protesters have targeted allies (or at least uninvolved third parties) in real life, ie attacking pride parades, so unfortunately I don’t see why being on the internet would make things any different. Some people are just desperate to be heard and habitually pick the worst possible way to convince others to listen. Not ruling out intentional shit-disturbers but it’s never only that.
This is the attitude that forced Blizzard to rework everything about themselves, caused FFXIV to launch in a disastrous state, and made Concord
Conservative Christians increase their involvement and within a year the children’s bathroom has a viewport for pedophiles installed.
If YouTube offered premium without music for a discounted price I’d probably be willing to pay for it. But I just want no ads, not a bunch of bundled stuff.
You’re forgetting the part where the video is coming from a cache server that isn’t designed to do this
Those Haitwegians, always eating cat
I was shocked at how often you just see people laying passed out on the sidewalk or sleeping on a bench. Japan is an insanely different place after the bars start closing. Was genuinely uneasy with how many people everywhere just had zero control of themselves.
That’s not on Google Play so it doesn’t affect it. I honestly don’t know what the point of this is.
Who in the world asked for Carmen Sandiego
My university had student apartments, each had their own router. No weird rules since it wasn’t the university’s network at all, it belonged to whoever lived in the apartment. Full router access, connect whatever, put it in bridge mode and connect your own if you want.
To many, federation is a solution to a problem that doesn’t really exist for them. In their mind, the early model of federation is like email, a problem that was “solved” years ago by having one corporate product that was much better than others (Gmail).
To add, on top of that, the fediverse is like if gmail could just randomly decide to stop receiving emails from outlook addresses and there’s nothing any user can do about it except make another email for when they want to email outlook users.
I don’t think fediverse proponents know just how catastrophically this terminates their entire pitch in the minds of 99% of internet users
OP those minimum requirements are taken directly from the Meta Quest 3 support page.
“Normie blocker” is just how abnormies rationalize bad design
I started on beehaw and moved here because they got too defederation-happy. I don’t want to post on an antisocial network, if I want to be alone with my thoughts I won’t go online at all. It’s a valid choice for them to make but I believe in Lemmy because I want a non-corporate non-evasive Reddit, which kinda needs lots of different communities.
Look you can go to the WoW, FFXIV, ESO, and OSRS subreddits or search for them on Twitter and see that the communities are still extremely active for these games. WoW has 75k on Twitch right now and MMOs are awful stream games. If you don’t use mainstream platforms you’re not getting an accurate read on what the mainstream opinions are.
Long press the homescreen, wallpaper and style, themed icons
Let me just write down my appointments on this cartoon old-timey video camera
You don’t see anything except Linux discussed on Lemmy because Lemmy has a couple thousand active users. There are Facebook groups bigger than the entire fediverse.
There’s a big chunk of the Linux community that will always want to gatekeep it and push out anything that makes it easier for the layman to use
