It’s definitely all of the above.
Hexbear is particularly vexing to me. According to the fediverse observer they’re less than a month old and yet have already become one of the most active instances.
outside of running your own instance, asking your instance’s owner to block them, or joining one that already has the offender on the blocklist, no. It’s requested a lot though so it’s probably on the todo list
nope.avi’s long lost brother, AAAAAA.jpeg
of course the one person in europe who owns a pickup would park it on the sidewalk
finish reading the comment, theyre not the same
you’ve got to consider that to a lot of these people racism “isn’t real” because their bar for what qualifies as racist is set incredibly high. “how could that be racist if it’s true?”
you can see a similar anti-trans sentiment in the people who defend jk rowling. “she’s just saying gender can’t mismatch assigned sex, how could the truth be transphobic?” nothing could ever be transphobic or racist or whatever to these people when they think very concept of being bigoted isn’t legitimate
Maybe I’ve just spent too long arguing with aholes on the internet but to me calling someone “friend” comes across as very sarcastic and condescending
Edit, it’s like calling someone you don’t know “buddy” or “pal”
yeah the site wouldnt load for me at the time but it does now
I bet we fall just outside the top 10. Seems pretty busy here to me, plus our LOTR memes make top upvoted pretty frequently. Honestly I’m wondering if the user distribution might be pretty dang good below the top 5 servers or so; 234k could be a serious underestimation of the actual active userbase if the next 20 servers all have 1k+
idk, im surprised it took this long. there’s a huge variety of admin teams with varying degrees of security awareness and it’s been over a month since the first big influx of users started. it’ll happen again too and probably not before too long
God I wrote like 3 paragraphs of hair-pulling stupid bugs and experiences I’ve had with steam just over the last couple years but jfc, long story short is your experiences are not universal. Steam horror stories are as common as flies on a week old corpse
Happy, stable, has a good relationship that is the most fleshed out of any in the comic.
Also the absolute safest of the original cast in a literal sense.
Another reason I’m glad to have left reddit: the QC sub was UNBELIEVABLY toxic, holy god.
Anyway yeah Zlata seems like she is gonna be A Lot
but… why…
In our current unparalleled enterprise, refusal to switch platforms is simply a refusal to grow—an insistence on watching ads, if you will. Did the Digg user refuse to Reddit? It did not. It crept forth boldly while its brethren remained in the blackest ocean abyss, with lidless eyes forever staring at the dark, ignorant and doomed despite their eternal vigilance. Would we model ourselves on the Facebook user?
Yeah but sometimes you just came inside and want to browse 😉 definitely understand where he’s coming from but it’d be nice to not have to switch to another account all the time
wow nice egg
Ah yes, the classic wealthy journalist. Everyone knows that reporting is where the big bucks truly lie. I guess it’s impossible for literally anyone living anywhere but the like 3 countries that pretend to be communist to report on anything accurately.
