That is correct.

I’ve been afraid to say this on Lemmy, but I own a Tesla Model 3 and it’s worth it for many things, but mostly the FSD for my 40 min commute. I almost exclusively charge at home, and would not buy another Tesla now but, at the time I bought it, things weren’t so bad and it’s my first brand new car so sorry, not sorry.

I always wondered this, so I’m glad you made a topic about it. I noticed an invidious link in a post I made was broken, and I started thinking that the broken link thing might be a problem going forward, especially for the longevity of a post’s life. I do hate YouTube and I’m happy to hear that me sharing a YouTube link is usually not giving them website traffic or user info because of the actions of other lemmys. Thanks for this post!

And when they want to go by something else, we’re ok with it (nick names)

You know who’s not fine with it? People who care more about themselves than they care about others.

I had a friend named John who, later in life, asked to be called his given name, Jonathan. For the friend group and most of his family, it was a bit hard to remember at first, but we did it because we cared about him. For some of his family, it was another matter - they fought against it with excuses, questioning, and “forgetfulness”. Only after being assertive, defending himself again and again, did they respect his wishes. And this was a cis male asking to be called his give name because he felt he was at a new stage of his life. The difference was that one part of his family cared more about themselves than they did about Jonathan.

Some of us have an abundance of care to fellow humans, and we give it freely. Some are too inconvenienced by things that they don’t like, or doesn’t fit their conventions that they say, “You can’t make me respect you!” or “Respecting you is making me less free!” And they do so because they care less about the people they interact with than themselves.

I’m guessing OP is a troll btw. Anyone serious on this topic would have written a manifesto. Thanks for getting me writing though! 😋

edit: a comma.

I noticed Animix Player doesn’t have “no ads” servers anymore and even when it opens the ads it doesn’t play. 😭

Sounds like you got banned for doing what is banned here.

Oops, I didn’t realize that! Sorry!

Midwest.social is located in the US and is also a leftist instance. However, we don’t host many large comms ourselves.

This is eerie, the way it’s said. Seems too real.

They show up italicized for me, iOS Thunder app

This is why I left .world in the first place, and that was even when their censorship was understandable. That’s the beauty of Lemmy.

Me too.

I believe .ml was the first lemmy instance - the one made by the developers.

Wrong. They federated with them then had a big discussion on if they should defederate (you can probably still find it in meta). It’s why I left - I prefer to make my own defederation decisions (and I like Hexbear, and Piracy too).

I saw the London one in person when they handed off the flame in Manchester:

TIL there are Napoleon Dynamite and Ace Ventura cartoons.

Thanks for the info!

Is this a thing? Why does he do it?

All shredded cheeses, I believe.

Some of these things seem solely topographical-based.
