- Comment on What's the point in getting married? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, when you’re married the husband will automatically be registered as the dad instead of ‘having to prove it’.
Our wedding had a double layer: we had the plan in our head for a while. Then my dad passed away and on his deathbed my now husband promised him he would take care of me like how he took care of me. So, it became incredibly emotional (6 months later) as some sort of seal on that promise too.

My partner and I wanted it for legal reasons, especially since I’m disabled so he can make medical decisions etc.
We can either "register as partners’ or get married. Both cost the same. Marriage had a wedding party. Costs a lil bit more, but brought together all of our friends and had a beautiful day. So why choose boring?

That is very true, ugh.

Which is weird when you see the IRL support and hype around Bernie and AOC. The people want more left in the democratic party.

Awesome, I’ll look into it

Thanks! I have no idea what matrix is though, is it like an open source / decentralized discord?
- Comment on Downtime - Apologies and what went wrong 4 weeks ago:
Thanks for the update! I figured it must have had something to do with the baby and the busy life + the update not working as expected, so I was patient.
After 12hrs or so I did go on mastodon to look for an update (just a ‘everything crashed, working on the backup’ kinda message) so if this ever happens again that might be an idea?
Thanks for working so hard on getting everything back up and don’t forget to rest!

I’m gonna buy a Luigi board to ask the guidance of Aaron Schwartz because I’m sure he is dying to get revenge

- Comment on Question about (what I think are) gay selfies 2 months ago:
As someone who lives in an opposite bubble, this post was funny to me in a wholesome way. I love how respectful you’re asking this while being fucking confused.
To answer your question: none of my queer/gay friends do this gesture specifically, so it seems it is just a quirky thing he does :)
- Comment on the person who abused(?) me (who I’m breaking free from and focusing on me💪) acted like this: is this common with certain mental health conditions? 2 months ago:
There is no disability which needs a human punching bag as an accommodation.

- Comment on Those YouTube ads everyone hates made $10.4 billion in just three months 2 months ago:
Influencer sponsorships, especially for beauty influencers, have already been declining. Companies realize that these influencers are just posting ads now and people don’t believe their “honest opinion” anymore. So it’s a mystery to me why companies still pay so much money for regular online ads.

Maybe Lemmy just needs one as a whole, people are so lazy!

Thank you for all the hard work again!
I think the problem for new users isn’t necessarily blocks and filters but Federation in general. Instance? What’s that? That’s complicated, do I need multiple accounts? Which one do I sign up for? Etcetera.
Maybe we need some very, very easy to understand guide as a landing page. Keep some details out just to keep it simple for the non-nerds.
Just my 2 cents :)
