I feel like the shock is more due to how quickly the site has moved to ban permanently. It may have come as a result of the increase in bots over the years.

Of course there are redditors around; I’m another one of them. We frequent the cool subs like the very human /r/FreeGameFindings and ignore the rest of the noise. Milk Reddit for the best of what it has to offer and dismiss the rest. I see nothing wrong with this approach for as long as Lemmy is still budding, relatively speaking.
Strange, I literally don’t know what this looks like! I wonder if another extension or add-on was interfering.
Huh, weird, what does it do? I can’t remember ever experiencing any noticeable difference on YT when switching from uBO to AN!
Switch to AdNauseam, a fork of uBO that maliciously attacks advertisers in the background with no increased data usage on your end!
Historically, “social media” meant non-anonymous social connections in which nearly everyone knew everyone’s real names; in contrast, Reddit or Reddit-like networks like Lemmy were called “content aggregators.”
We’re also not in a bubble (what bubble anyway, of anticapitalism?) if we’re diversifying our exposure to different sides. The most important aspect is that Lemmy instances seem to be among the more bot-free forums, whereas FB is completely overrun by “AI” spewing lies and fake studies, for example.
I would argue that it only makes you “sick” (what kind of sickness, anyway?) if this is your primary means of your socializing. Message boards involving strangers utilized in one’s life in this way should only be a temporary lifeline while you work to gradually build/rebuild a habit of regular, in-person contact. As long as you’re diligently striving towards that, it’s likely a (perhaps small) net positive. Social media, content aggregators, forums, message boards, etc. are only a net negative if they’re your primary approach to voluntary contact with people.
now it’s pretty much just piefed/lemmy, and will eventually delete these too
Really? What’s wrong with stuff here?


Fox news literally argued in court they’re purely entertainment, like the onion.
Wait, they did? Wow, accuracy!
Well, true, maybe not HD, haha, but I was just referring to how to continue breathing life into a DVD player. But yeah, I didn’t even know HD DVDs existed, given Blu-Ray…
You have clearly not been to the library.


Huh? I don’t understand…


If Amazon’s entire retail side died, they would be totally fine. AWS is incredible in its reach. It’s really alarming.

Update: Great, it worked!

Incidentally, one of my favorite WW2 movies is Anthropoid about the Czech resistance… If any of this topic interests any readers at all, don’t look up anything about it; go in blind! It’s free to library card holders on Kanopy.

Someone hasn’t seen Andor nor Rogue One!
Pretty sure it’s the former…
I don’t know; I’d say with the ultra-rich (we’re talking beyond millions), it’s by default guilty until proven innocent by that point…
