That is hilarious. I can imagine it with perfect clarity lol

I haven’t seen these posts, either. But I have to ask, are you this person?
- Comment on Lemmy.World's !News sides with Mark Zuckerberg in Censoring Palestinians 3 months ago:
By that logic, the NY Times should be banned as a source. They’re opinion section is chocked full of basically the pro US point of view and defending Israel (including a memo advocating genocide denial). One-sided coverage, poorly sourced, it all applies to them, too.
- Comment on Otome Games (again, because original instance went down) 3 months ago:
Wasn’t that the German or instance? I wonder why they went down. They seemed so big and established.
- Comment on Would I get banned here for being over active? I got banned from reddit because they thought I was a bot. And don't want to repeat the same mistake here. Thank you ahead of time. 4 months ago:
And even if you’re don’t get banned, just like Reddit, you may get down voted a lot if you go against the discourse of the current thread. But not sure if that’s fixable anywhere with big groups of people.

I’d like to get more tabletop rpg content back on ttrpg.network if possible. So in that spirit, just want to remind people that
!dndnext@ttrpg.network !rpg@ttrpg.network
Both exist
- Comment on Shopping app Temu is “dangerous malware,” spying on your texts, lawsuit claims 5 months ago:
It’s why I stopped using Reddit on mobile lol. No, I don’t want to download your official app, and no you making it so I need it to access NSFW stuff will convince me to.
- Comment on Lemmy is the best social media 5 months ago:
It sounds like a really specific definition, but you’d be surprised by how often it applies. He originally thought of it to apply to Tik Tok after noticing it following a similar pattern as Facebook, Amazon, and I think Google. Then the internet realized it could keep applying his term to so many more companies, like Spotify, Uber, Lyft, Airbnb, Reddit, Microsoft, Apple, all streaming companies, and physical product companies like car companies or John Deere, etc and it’s shot up in popularity and use since then.
Not sure of the general use case you describe, but the person who invented the term in that article I linked sounds like he doesn’t mind if it’s used in a more general case for things getting worse from greed, so feel free to go ahead and keep using it I guess lol. Although maybe we should come up with a different, more general term for that if there isn’t already one? I’ve got nothing, but if anyone has suggestions lol.

That’s true, but it’s just not enshittification. It’s a different word.
- Comment on Lemmy is the best social media 5 months ago:
Their community came over here long before all us old Redditors and it seems like they’ve cultivated their one culture and in-jokes and such. It can get confusing to pierce all the irony and sarcasm to figure out what they’re saying sometimes lol.

Sounds expensive lol
- Comment on UK Retailer GAME To End All In-Store Video Game Sales 5 months ago:
Same. I forgot to mention that I like to buy cheaper games through second hand rather than paying full price on electronic stores. Often even their big sales aren’t as cheap as secondhand.
- Comment on UK Retailer GAME To End All In-Store Video Game Sales 5 months ago:
I still buy physical whenever I can. I’d hate to have my entire collection beholden to one account, although I know people do that with the PS Store, or Game Pass, or Steam. I don’t trust corporations, I guess. I really hope they don’t make disc-less consoles the standard.

While I agree with you, it’s still a war crime to take civilians as hostages.

This is worse than the idea of putting giant ice cubes in the ocean.

There we go! Thanks

Perfect! We need a community like this.

The sequel was so fun!
- Comment on The Palestine experience 6 months ago:
That still would’ve been wrong. Imagine if I came in to your house and decided half of it was mine. The half I like btw. And then slowly start taking more until you’re locked in the basement and can’t leave until I say so.

Does it have a mobile app? That’s the main way I use Lemmy now.

Is that for Android or Apple?

Everyone in this thread is suggesting Mbin, so I might try that. Sounds like it’s a fork of Kbin that actually solved a ton of the federation issues with Lemmy.
- Comment on "Yeah, but what if we used AI?" 7 months ago:
But I don’t think this startup would help. The poor neighborhoods would still have less to invest. Privatizing taxes would just make the poorer neighborhoods worse and the richer neighborhoods nicer.

Thank you for at least posting the eye bleach. That would’ve ruined my whole day lol.
