Is it so strange to entertain the thought of talking with people outside your bubble? Not everyone enjoys day after day of single-opinion threads and enjoy having well-intentioned discussions with other people. Political movements would never go anywhere if they never left a basement.
A lack of opposing viewpoints is a fast-track to a closed-minded approach to interactions. I see far too many people, of all backgrounds, enter into engagements with a “you’re wrong and I’m right” mindset born from only entertaining their own ideals. Day after day of “other side bad” comments that entirely miss why that other side believes what they do in the first place. I don’t see how that helps anyone unless your goal is to pat each other on the back while the country drifts farther apart. Personally speaking, reading entire threads like this gets tiresome and while I am glad we don’t have the same level of bad faith right-wing spam that other platforms do, I wish we had a more open atmosphere.
There doesn’t seem to be a tradition of dog-piling people who wrong-think according to the group consensus
I think I’ve been in different threads then, because most posts that aren’t the majority opinion around here gets heavily discouraged by downvotes and/or replies.
Ah okay, thanks for the insight!
From what I’ve heard the Snapdragon chips aren’t that impressive though?
I’ve felt that the popular subreddits were on a decline ever since Reddit was featured in so many YouTube slop videos, but with time the effect of identity loss is becoming increasingly obvious. The crowd on there is not what it used to be. Gone is the desire for accurate information, meaningful comments, sources, and giving credit. Reddit is no longer a niche product but a mainstream one that my parents and “normie” friends know and it reflects in the lower quality content and user participation.
The limits don’t matter if the provider raises their price next month.
Well we all die eventually. I’m happy to serve a longer sentence and find out a bit later.
Krita is a drawing-first program, so this makes sense.
I would bet money that phone makers such as Google keep storage low to steer people towards their cloud storage options.
I would happily use one for my music and movies to access them on the go. I already have copies elsewhere, so it would be no big loss if the card died.
They are, but mostly in budget phones. If you want a flagship camera or processor as well, you’re sadly out of luck. And god forbid you want a folding phone.
Self-hosting any wiki software solves the problems of Fandom, surely? I fail to see how federation solves any of Fandom’s issues.
I would refer to this as background noise, yes.
Thank god the government won’t know I enjoy cat facts.
A lot of Lemmy communities need rules against misleading/editorialised headlines already, it’s as bad or worse than Reddit right now.
Because Canada, woo! My definitely not picked on a whim choice has yet to fail me though, I haven’t personally experienced any downtime or slowdowns and I like the community overall.
Should block pornlemmy as well in that case.
Containers have nothing to do with tab groups. One is an organisation tool and the other is a privacy tool.
Listen to yourself speak and tweak a couple of words to make it a right winger saying it. Perhaps you might realise how similar you sound.
Sounds exactly like what I’d read on r/conservative.
