Thank you!

Ah, yes, that was right at the time where I was having peak personal stress/health issues and only did the bare minimum admin work on Lemmy and my other platforms, no wonder I missed it. Glad to see people actually responded to the call to action, though!

They posted asking for people to stand up for them.
Ah, that makes sense - I missed that, but have been happily giving them a bit of money for years now. I don’t have a lot to spare, but every little bit helps with crowdfunded stuff like that.

Great, now I won’t be able to unsee that ever again!

Check the sticky post about rules concerning this:
!fediverse@lemmy.world is not a place to file your grievances with “free speech”, disrupting users, moderation, etc.
If you have problems with users: File complaints to the mods or just block them.
If you have problems with mods: File complaints with admins of the instance or just migrate to an alternative community.
If you have problems with an entire instance: Just leave it.
And to add: If you do want/need to highlight misbehaviour, stalking or even just rant about injustices happening publicly, there are places like !fediverselore@lemmy.ca (rules prohibit stuff you are personally involved in, though) and !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com where it concerns mod/admin abuse.

- Comment on YouTube's new ad strategy is bound to upset users: YouTube Peak Points utilise Gemini to identify moments where users will be most engaged, so advertisers can place ads at the point. 3 days ago:
It would be wrong to call it a replacement, but this is a good place to plug !peertube@lemmy.world - there’s more quality content on there than many might suspect, especially if you are into FOSS andpeoplde tinkering with stuff they are passionate about.

Also, there isn’t even a way to tell if this is real. Sure, it could be, but chances are high someone took a picture of a couple that look kind of “white trash” from who knows where, and just used it to create outrage/superiority-circlejerk-bait.

- Comment on YSK: If the frontpage constantly looks like the same 5 - 8 posts, try sorting by "Hot". 5 weeks ago:
Personally, I like “Scaled” and “Hot” the most, but I also check “New” to discover communities that may otherwise get lost (and, to ban spam/bot/troll accounts along the way as well) - and lastly, I also have a look at “Top/Day” at least once a day, to see what’s the “talk of the town”.
It definitely feels like we had some growth in proper, organic activity, just a few months ago, it definitely felt like “Top/12hrs” was the best one for the amount of content that was being posted. But for a while now, “Hot” and “Scaled” feel much better than that one.

Okay, will do! Thanks for the heads-up.
- Comment on Best starter hands-down 5 weeks ago:
Pretty much the exact same story here, only my obsession was more with PC-DOS RPGs like Ultima, Wizardry, Goldbox games, thanks to my father and older siblings influencing me there.
- Comment on Best starter hands-down 5 weeks ago:
Fun fact: When choosing my starter for the first time, all I knew about Pokémon was: “It’s a game I saw someone play at school once and it kind of looked like an RPG and I love those!” I genuinely just went with what looked cool to me and had no idea there were “actual” dragon Pokémon.
Also +1 on dom@lemmy.ca noting, that Gyarados is the cool dragon in Gen1
- Comment on Best starter hands-down 5 weeks ago:
As a bullied kid that back then just wanted a cool dragon, I protest that insinuation!
- Comment on I had no idea y cunt was this powerful 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, remember that German philosopher? Immanuel Kant, whose last name is pronounced “cunt”? Who ended up kicking off the whole process of modern and ultimately postmodern philosophy? Who most likely had autism (non-judgemental) and some really weird habits (mostly non-judgemental, don’t hit your servants, dude) and ideas (somewhat non-judgemental, if you’ve never seen a person with darker skin in your life, don’t write about them).
It was all in the name!
Speaking of philosophers and licking cunts.
