I too miss reddit sometimes. Mostly because it had such a large userbase that there was always something interesting to find/read. If you had the right subreddits it was a very nice and friendly place. I like the fediverse (I’m on mbin) but there are still some hurdles to take. Such as finding nice magazines not on your home server. There are some lists and stuff, but I just want to search in the search bar of the site and find them. Also, there is still a 20 year gap of information. If you have a question it is most likely already asked at reddit. So searching on DuckDuckGo or Reddit will almost certainly give you an answer. Searching on the fediverse won’t give you the same hitrate. Especially for more non-mainstream subjects. For instance: I have a specific kind of motorcycle, the magazine on the fediverse is dead. Not one post, no activity (so that’s my fault as well). On reddit, there a couple of thousand threads. I just recently decided I wanted to interact more on the fediverse (hence this reply) to put in my effort to keep the fediverse alive, active and growing. I just need to find some subjects to start a relevant and interesting new thread.

I don’t think lemmy/mbin/etc. will be as popular since it’s too much trouble for the non-techies. I do think mastodon/misskey/etc. is quite active and interesting. It’s better then twitter. And since I follow the right people I really like pixelfed instead of instagram. I think those are better, but it is an adjustment. Since you have to put in the work to find the right people to follow. And while I dislike the instagram algorithm, it did offer some very good, high quality photography. But I think it’s going the facebook way. Facebook in it’s early days was a great way to see what your friends and family where up to. Now it’s just old memes, stupid jokes, fake news and advertisements. Instagram is becoming that as well.

Sorry can’t help. I’m here for the tips as well. (Follow post).

Does your girlfriend use your devices or accounts? Seems very strange to me that they would do that. Or they want to fuck you over even more by making it less easy to deny that you didn’t create that account since the password is linked to you/your girlfriend. But then again, LE would need to be made aware of the password before that makes sense.

Okay, treating this seriously. No: triple triple = 333 333 333. Triple triple triple = 333 333 333 333 333 333 333 333 333.

This is something that happens in every war, but it’s difficult in this particular one since there is a very slim chance other countries will come to the rescue. So it’s all up to the Ukrainians themselves to cope with this thread/war.

Damn, moist. That’s damp.

I had the same thoughts as you before owning an EV. Now it’s just something I deal with. I rarely use fast charging, I mainly use destination charging (at home, at work, at the shopping center). When I do sit at a charging station, I just find myself doing all the stuff anyone does while waiting for something. I browse the internet, write a response on @Showerthoughts@lemmy.world, send some work emails. Mostly stuff I would do when I’m at home as well. I just enjoy the down time and time for myself.

I don’t see fast charging as a chore, it’s just something that you “undergo” just as you would while waiting at the doctor’s office. Is it enjoyable? Not always, but it’s never a pain either. Do I hate it? No.

In Europe and Finland there are a lot of undocumented immigrants. It’s in the news as well. This is news because it’s from Russia through a border which should be closed fully.

The same as how I would pronounce “giraffe” but without the “ira” and “e”.

Don’t worry, most people are.

You are technically correct. Since after a while they won’t be fat anymore when they are in the camps. I needed to think about this one for a while.

Sick fuck.

It’s so dad level I don’t understand it. Anyone care to explain?

I meant that when asking those questions, you are familiar with the person you’re speaking with. Indeed, when I ask you those questions the answers would be the same since we (presumably) don’t know eachother.

Those corporations and governements have people employed who can have (and usually do have) access to the data. Intentional or unintentional. So would they still be comfortable knowing that I’m able to lookup their data? That’s what the personal questions are about.
If the government still had personal interactions with a clerk at a desk, would they still be comfortable sharing everything they do now?

Companies (and spammers) already fucked it up. It’s hard to keep your own mailserver of all the big companies black list.

They want to be a mod and be important. All the gamer buddies have a discourd channel, so it’s cool to have one. I know, I’ve been that way.

You have to skip the bigger communities and just sort ‘new’ on your subscribed view. That way you’ll only see content about other topics. It helps me to stay away from the reddit and twitter storm. But people are happy and proud of themselves that they left, so they need to vent.

The search for communities is a bit of a pain, but !newcommunities has new communities (so not a lot of content yet) and https://browse.feddit.de/ has also a nice overview. You can also scroll through all the new posts and look for communities you like. There are also communities on kbin. Usually when you follow a couple of communities, you stumble upon others.
