I think it’s especially the money and LGBTQ+ and non sexual norms that are driving people to the right. I notice when I talk to a lot of younger guys theyre tired of hearing about it.

Because it’s pushed on so much of their TV shows and things they like that they side with political candidates that are conservative at a young age and they further grow into it. These are conservative candidates with lots of money usually.

I hate to say it but it was universally cool to defend LGBT people when the media and TV shows didn’t push it. Because you were defending an oppressed person. Now it more so feels like it’s popular which means it’s no longer an obscure thing, the anti culture is the new trend.

I want to disclaim that I don’t agree with any of this other than to say this is my observation of the behavior. I play rainbow six ranked on Xbox and use the looking for group party finder with a buddy of mine. We group up and encounter a lot of guys in the army and Marines, a lot of teenagers and this is cumulatively the culture I’ve heard. Same thing on like world of warcraft classic and using discord to raid but those guys run older typically.

Gaming. It used to be an MMO for like $15 a month. Now it’s a new game for $70, the game has DLC for $20-$30 or skins or some battle pass.

I had the same idea but there’s a lot of actual tangible assets that have to be dealt with.

The first part is picking a pilot country which is probably where the developer lives. The second is either investing in or partnering with Fast ship locations - you need a service or partner that you can use like Amazon prime to store inventory across a country, and last is shipping and delivery maybe it’s baked in. I bet there’s a company that does this that has an API or partnership program.

In other words you have to establish partnerships or literally incentivize real people to invest in order to create the same value as Amazon. The magic of amazon isn’t really that’s it’s like eBay and buying things online, it’s that I can get it so soon.

• Too much fluff on interweb
• assume others online are writing in brevity

I’ll generalize and say there are many my age in their 20s that watch things like TikTok and shorts that are conditioned for the fastest intake of media. This means ignoring the written word outside of texts.

Even myself, if I see a wall of text in an article, I know to skip the fluffer ad-reads down to paragraph three, then skim. To be fair most articles could be wrapped up to maybe two paragraphs but get extended for ad spots. Outside the context of reading articles on say lemmy, especially online, there is a largely missed hear mean not what I’m saying operating in good faith that often gets missed online. For example if someone posts an article about how smoking kills you, and I post a comment that “yes but its a creature comfort” I am not refuting it kills you - I’m merely suggesting that its a rough world and that people have vices to cope.

Nuance and assumption that we’re acknowledging it is often lost on people.

I’m so green to it I can’t comment. What have you seen that’s a turn off?

I see a whole lot of meme coiners over there so far lol.

Maybe you don’t really want an account one one server but rather the whole experience. Seems good nuff for that.

Are those the super communists that are like fuck any place that’s not Russia and China? Lol

If so I guess I feel the pain but I just give em the block

Things are fine man. There’s just a lot of de federation lately which I don’t think is exactly right.

I want to call out a few QoL things here that will help lemmy:

• There are a lot of read-the-headline-not-the-article commenters which is natural in an aggregation feed of links; there are numerous posts a day where people rewrite the news’ headlines to fit their agenda where the actual article and articles headline doesn’t reflect ANY of what they’re suggesting. if you run these sub lemmies for news on your server, I encourage you to use a bot or enforce rules for news that simply scrapes the title out of the link. Otherwise people will post news links that lead to a real source but have a false headline.
• There is a staggering amount of people pushing for oddities like child porn acceptance and I keep seeing it. Unless an entire server is compromised, reach out to the mods and ask to get subs cleaned up. Give moderators the benefit of the doubt and a chance to act without breaking federation completely. Its important Lemmy moderates content but also communicates well amongst each other when something is going wrong.

For code snippets especially. I mean the thing is limited to input sizes and doesn’t remember context of running conversations that well

Yeah that’s understandably frustrating. I heard they make like no money off of that. Wonder how long before it hits the killed by google list.

Huh. I guess I mostly use foss stuff and maybe a few apps like youtube premium/tv, that I pay them for service so I never hear about it.

I had a lot of that experience with an app called Postman before I switched to Insomnia.rest for software development. Same thing with twitter after musk bought it.

What app or tech is badgering you? I feel like with standard android and pop! OS I have zero complaints. Everything just works

I had the exact same issues when I ran matrix with my friends and family. I see this as a major bug with the encryption.

AKA it’s not just you. I’ll probably encounter it again soon when I setup the server again soon and open a bug report.

I don’t care if I setup an encryption key backup at sign up. If my session should still be valid I’m not entering that long thing, I’m just quitting the use of the app. The encryption had to work and not just randomly bug out.
