If they know what email and reddit it are, Lemmy should be pretty easy to understand, at least from a user-perspective. Replace reddit with Twitter/Bluesky for mastodon, Instagram for pixelfed, etc, etc. I don’t think understanding how email works at a tech level is important for being able to use it. Ditto for fediverse.

But what if you also are forced married to the security first?

That your busy checking your emails

Around 30yo NB - Armpit, maybe bra-strap length if straightened - would like it longer, but no clue how much.

I just gave up on reviewing my own work and just tried to do good enough that “careless errors” were most of my point losses, but that wasn’t so much that it was a problem.

Twitch streamer rather than Youtuber and not broadly popular either afaik (but was decently well known within the niche community), but Dode. Was also an SMWcentral mod. Kept platforming certain transphobes and eventually got kicked from his mod position and then banned and the community distanced themselves and he quit streaming. Seems like he also got banned on speedrun.com?

Probably not surprising that a community full of trans and other LGBT persons isn’t decided they don’t like transphobia?

Nowadays, its spread to other things like blaming them for heart problems, GI tract issues, etc. People who were infected with covid, some multiple times, are blaming vaccines for various health issues they’re developing and refuse to accept that maybe the full-blown infection that nearly got them hospitalized could have just as well been the cause. Or just something that would have happened as they aged regardless.

Not working a BS job at a company of like 5 people would probably make a strike seem more meaningful. If I had income to spare, it would probably make more sense to fund someone else to strike at a major company or who does more meaningful work than for myself to strike.

any of the tens (hundreds?) of alternative servers that offer literally exactly the same thing.

Awesome Lemmy Instances shows nearly 500 and its outdated.

Some people pay a lot of attention to what instances people are from. I think I’ve had someone who jumped to negative assumptions about me because of what instance I’m using and I think I might have seen like one person from this instance - I pretty much never see people using the same instance, so its weird imagining someone seeing it enough to have an assumption about the users.

There are some servers that are a bit more tight-knit (hexbear comes to mind).

The hexbear trans megathread has a lot of general life posting stuff, but it is not a general LGBT+ thing.

As long as they can convince advertisers that the enough of the activity is real or enough of the manipulation of public opinion via bots is in facebook’s interest, bots aren’t a problem at all in the short-term.

Only time I have the problem is when people attach large files. While is the same problem with other “IM” methods.

Agreed most others wouldn’t use email as a replacement for casual chat, but its always seemed like an arbitrary choice. So many people waste so much space in emails because they treat them like letters, so the biggest difference seems to be the culture around them rather than the medium itself. If people formatted all text messages as

"Hello Dear Friend,

Here is stuff to waste space.

Here’s what I actually want to say.

More extra stuff.

Sincerely, Walrus"

I doubt we would see that much of a difference between them.

How so? Seems like just a slightly different UI for the same thing to me?

Feel like Matrix or Email would have made more sense as a federated service for communication, but get Signal is a lot more well known.

We beat fascism or something?

That is the implication. That you should find local fascists and beat them.

They want them to force to sell it to a US company, so the US interests can be forced onto the algorithm…

What do people’s genitals have to do this this?
