There’s no “algorithm” per se, so you can actually discover new things in your feed, rather than just being fed what they think will keep you scrolling.
Also, you can use whatever app you like (I like Sync personally, but that’s because it was my client of choice for Reddit) instead of using their RSS reader stapled to a Wish.com TikTok clone.
Only downside is when you DO finally have an, “Oh, it’s you” moment, you’d better hope they’re not one of the few people doing the posting.
Ok honestly thank you for that. I kind of gathered that from his pretty much only shitposting and attitude in his comments. Idk why but being banned because of him really bugged me.
I’ve said my peace, unfortunately not much more I can do. I’ll let him go Lord over his little fiefdoms as he wishes. The whole experience has totally turned me off of Lemmy TBH; I’ve literally never had this kind of issue with a mod here or on Reddit.
I mean, I have screenshots, but k. Funny how I’m now at least the 3rd person to take issue with you and your temper tantrum mod style.
And please, show me the comments where I made “homophobic generalizations” and "doubled down. I made literally ONE comment. Was it snarky? Yes, but it was in no way what you’re characterizing it as. It’s also funny how none of that appears in the modlog.
I’m going to go with the modlog reason
That you chose to purposely mischaracterize what I said.
And finally, feel free to check my history, I think you’ll find it pretty damn spotless, which is a hell of a lot more than I can say for you.
You posted a misogynistic meme, I said “i thought we left that in 2023,” and apparently you didn’t like that so you called me a bigot and banned me. None of what I said was homophobic or bigoted. I just didn’t like your meme because it seemed like the millionth time one of us has made an “ew women” joke and it’s tired and shitty to women. So you said I’m homophobic and banned me then told me to fuck off basically.👎 Which cut me off from participating in the largest LGBTQ+ safe space on Lemmy. So yeah.
imposing moderator will on community
Rich, coming from the mod that banned me because I called him out on a shitty joke.
Maybe it’s one of those things where if you can’t tell who it is, it’s you 🤔
The great irony there being “happy holidays” is from the Old English (language, not malt liquor) for “happy holy days.”
I just Recently discovered Lu Kala, and Hotter Now is now in my heavy rotation.
A few years ago, I had ordered a bunch of gifts for my family to be delivered to my mother’s house shortly before Christmas. The morning my flight was supposed to leave, I got an email from Amazon saying my packages were delayed until like mid-January. Given that I needed to be on a plane in a couple of hours, and it was like 3 days before Christmas Day, I ended up just printing off pictures of the stuff I bought and giving everybody a card with them in it. We had a pretty good laugh about it.
Are you sure about that? Because every picture I see of the seditious fuck makes him look like he smells of hamberder grease and dirty adult diapers.
Food banks. Look at your local church, synagogue, or mosque. A lot of them do community outreach and have some kind of food bank.
If you’re skipping meals or you have $5 'til next Friday, the food bank is for you. Don’t feel like you’re taking something away from someone “more needy.” It’s you. You’re needy. Take the help. That was a hard lesson to learn in my 20s.
Remember, if you see someone stealing food, no you fuckin’ didn’t.
Same. I’m an engineer with a very small tech company; even though we’re not FAANG, we sure act like it. I have stuff from so many hobbies just sitting collecting dust in a closet or a drawer because when I get done with work I only have enough energy to feed myself, look after the dog, and do the bare minimum to keep life going until tomorrow, then rinse and repeat.
I think the only thing that’s saved me from total burnout is that my boss is a hardliner on WFH; we maintain a small office space for conferences and meetings, but we’ve been told in no uncertain terms there will be no return to office. That at least lets me take care of small chores like laundry and dishes and runs to the grocery store during the day.
I just wish Windows would do like Chrome OS does and give you a little detent when you move a window to the edge of the screen.

Usually for me, the sweetness hits first, but then subsequent sips reveal more depth of flavor.
Just don’t ask where all that art came from in the 40s.
MTA workers, Dept of Sanitation workers, NYCHA workers… So many people who work for the city. All it takes is one hangnail or paper cut.
