Today I learned, thank you wise panzer

Fair enough, thanks for explaining!

Cmon, no need to associate a popular gay dating app with republicans like it’s a bad thing. Enough to criticize the party for without bringing sexuality into it.

Praise the Omnissiah!

Really giving everyone a prime example of that, thanks!

This, the web installer basically does everything for you, so no way to fuck up unless you disconnect the phone during the setup. Also haven’t had any problems with banking apps and the like, though Eventim doesn’t seem to work.

I used to be critical of her, I thought she was just a kid being used by her rich parents as a mouth piece. But she has kept her course and changed my mind completely, truly very few people in the world would have courage to do something lile this. I hope she comes back alive from this, we need more people like her.

Hey I understood that reference!

While I wish there was more transparency about this decision before action was taken, in this case it’s kind of understandable due to the servers being hosted in Germany and them having really draconian piracy laws. Just hoping that this won’t lead to a chain reaction of other communities being removed due to legal complaints.

In the meantime, happy to get my piracy content over at db0.

I downvoted your other post because while yes, in an ideal situation people migrating from Reddit would join local instances that fit their individual values the best, I don’t agree that forcing people to join other instances than .world is the right or that it will make Lemmy better.

It doesn’t matter if the reason is because they read about in a guide, it has most of the communities they liked, or even because it’s the biggest instance currently, people’s freedom of choice should be respected. How do you think complete newcomers would see Lemmy if even the most recommended instance turns them away? Probably that the whole thing is very exclusive.

The general sentiment around here seems to be that people like how the admins are handling things so far and that they feel inclined to be more active because there is enough users to generate discussions on smaller topics as well, so your insinuation that this instance is somehow damaging Lemmy’s image seems a bit disingenuous to be honest.
