Morning coffee.

I block communities that routinely show up that I am not interested in seeing and use a monkey script to block instances of no value to me.

No, simply because I don’t “have to” have content. If Lemmy lacks interesting content, I go outside for a while.

Well, I use a fake name and an email used only for Duolingo, so… ok.

That is exactly it, right down to having to fight the urge to repeat the thing that makes me feel sick! I would have never through that this would be something more than just my totally broken brain.

I clean mine very rarely because sticking my finger in there causes a sense of shock and tingling that longers after. The sensation makes me physically ill.

Perhaps you require more ragebait?

If so, you’re stupid, your thought is stupid and your choice in underwear is stupid.

What did Gizmodo think might happen instead? That everyone, including those that were never impacted by 3rd party app changes, would just abandon the site, leaving it without users? “Peak journalism”.

It really depends on where you live. For instance, in Western NC, I was completely left to my own devices on the trail systems. local IMBA group asked that I just keep track of my hours so they could add to the volunteer sheet that they turned into the forestry service. I was given the ok to take anything out I wanted; chainsaws, mowers, weedeaters, sickles, etc. In my new area, it’s more structured so I joined a FB group for the local club and asked them if I could do maintenance on the trail closest to me. They gave me the go-ahead so I go out to that trail when I want to do work.

I always try to find the most unused trail in the area to work on as I prefer the solitude when being out in the woods.

Trail maintenance. I spent over a decade doing work on neglected trails in western NC. Hours upon hours of hiking, weed eating, sawing, taking, etc. It was more exercise than biking the same trails.

I’m struggling with the loss of the mountain biking I’ve loved for a long time. I’m trying various changes out to keep some biking in my life. I’m biking more slowly and for diminished distances. Also my wife bought me an emtb that I’ve been trying out on the trails. Less fatigue means I’m .asking less mistakes while out.

I hope you find an outlet you enjoy. The loss is truly life altering.

Is there a reason why you didn’t continue your last long post? Is there a benefit to wiping those conversations from your OP repeatedly?

Let’s help people remember her Muslim identity then, I’ll start:

According to your tale, this old boss has some serious connections if inquiries 50 years later are still being directed to him and he called your dad back instead of a law enforcement official that should have been the one returning the call. 50 years later, they can still squash any attempts to turn up the soil.

I know what I’d do, anonymously send a package to the law enforcement agency and then nothing more. There’s absolutely no way I’d risk the safety of my family for a man that knew he was burying bodies and took compensation for it. It was his burden to make it right and it’s another indecent thing he’s doing to place this burden on you for what I am guessing he thinks is for the benefit of his mortal soul. He apparently doesn’t want to risk his son’s life with this task so he’s reaching out to you, someone that’s a bit more disposable.

You didn’t kill anyone and you didn’t help hide the bodies. Don’t be the single person in this whole fucked up thing to get punished for it.

People fork what’s what they’re using and what’s popular. Chromium has the vast majority of the market share so it’s most likely to get modified and reused.

but it definitely isn’t a way to consume content you actually want.

No, it’s not the way you want. Barring a single instance, it’s literally the way I want to consume the content.

People crossposting to the comical number of same-but-mines-different-communities can shit up a feed pretty quick. I’d suggest cutting down on a few of your tech groups and see how it works for you then.

What’s Twitter? Do you mean X?

It has taken over most social media apps

A lot of the people using the “fediverse” are here because of the things that most social media shovels at it’s users. I don’t think I would use that as an example of why it should be available to us.

So.

Farging.

Newsworthy.

Good. Hopefully, those that make Reddit the experience it is stays there.
