  I think they are referring to the point that you want your personal votes to be kept private. Some say it is a form of “cowardice” to not vote publicly.

  Personally I see your point is very valid and at least this should be more actively described when signing up for Lemmy and that obviously your instance admins can see everything and you should be very careful (e.g. VPN) if you’d like to participate privately in a conversation. Maybe this is not the right platform for you then ufortunately. Everything in life has its pros and cons and certainly Lemmy is not perfect.

  Not sure why u only mention iMessage, but it also works fine in Signal and other messaging apps 👌

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨introducing copyparty, the FOSS file server⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree but it’s still in an early development state. Not really usable for everyday work let alone most people never heard about it 😅 But yeah still cool to mention it under “modern” browsers. I wish them good luck with the first alpha next year. I hope it’ll be successful.

  the dude even mentions ladybird as browser, nice 😎

  luckily u didn’t suggest to cut the cheese 😅 cheese is life, I can eat less beef but not my cheeeeeese 🙃

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about the GI Rights Hotline⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well actually: “It was originally an initialism used in U.S. Army paperwork for items made of galvanized iron.[2] The earliest known instance in writing is from either 1906[3] or 1907.[2]” Also later on re-interpreted as “government issued” etc. but I guess today it just means US army soldier

  Idk man some here might begin to think you have a drug problem and sexual uncertainty on top. No judging tho

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Deck / Gaming News #10⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  btw. Metro 2033 Redux also for free on Steam.

  Also on a side note, one of the coolest milsim/tactic shooters in recent years is also on sale: Insurgency Sandstorm. It even gets a big map/weapons update next week.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Summit for Lemmy is now open source⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I love that you link Obtanium. This is the first time I saw an app dev actually linking to Obtanium. Getting your FOSS app update directly from the git repos without the google bs around it just seems logical.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨immich v1.127.0 released with manual face tagging feature⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Haven’t heard about this project before. I was using a self hosted Nextcloud instance so far. What would be the benefit of switching to immich? I guess immich does have some advances features, like the tagging was mentioned, specifically for picture management.
