Ubuntu, because I’m fine with something that “just works”

Friendship ended with Mastodon

My new best friend is Bluesky

Yeah I agree, its user count is still growing on .world alone, and so fast in fact that I’m starting to consider making my sopuli alt my main account to not add to the load.

One of the many lemmy-like federated sites; I wonder if it lets you sign in with accounts hosted on the lemmy instances since those sites are federated with tildes. Apple mail lets you sign in with both outlook and gmail, and as I understand it, certain apps for Mastodon let you view Lemmy posts (I use Ice Cubes which does) since most of its instances are fedded with us but with a lot less functionality since this site doesn’t let you repost like mastodon does and mastodon only lets you upvote things

Edit: Apparently it’s not federated. Guess there’s nothing stopping it from just being another Hivemind-That-Must-Not-Be-Named in training.

Reptiles love heat, and will outlive most species in the impending climate disaster, the alligators of the American South are benefitting from climate change rn

Reminds me of what the hoverboard craze of the mid-10s resulted in, products with a bunch of shoddily-assembled components that turn the batteries into bombs making it onto store shelves faster than the new thing powered by said batteries can get new safety guidelines released for it

As a 5’11 guy you’ve just made my day

That Napoleon was short

No wonder everything on the hivemind-that-must-not-be-named sounds and feels like it’s being regurgitated by the same people, from the low-effort memes to the armchair city planners, atheist circlejerks and very enlightened political/economic views.

And as for terraforming Mars, all we have to do is do what we’re doing here: Warm it with CO2 emissions. All it takes is a little atmospheric thickening to vaporize its glaciers of dry ice and already spawn a few surface brine lakes using its existing water table (the underground hypersaline ice partially melts each summer), then just get a bunch of comets to burn up in its atmosphere for the oceans and put an artificial magnetic field at its Lagrange point and turn all that atmospheric CO2 into oxygen with giant vats of cyanobacteria (which are what naturally terraformed Earth billions of years ago)

And we can terraform Venus using future tech we might develop to reverse climate change here, like giant orbital parasols, reflective dust and carbon capture

I was at first excited when he talked about Mars, but now that I know he can’t even run a social media platform I definitely wouldn’t wanna trust him with my life

About time

I agree, many of them appear to be edgy script kiddies upset that people don’t wanna use their precious reddit anymore

I just re-created one of my favorite subreddits on sopuli.xyz, using my alt account on that instance as the mod account.

There are some with very specific purposes/nationalities (like lemmynsfw, lemmy.ca, and one Portuguese-only one for people from Portugal) that somewhat resemble the porn subs and the country-themed subreddits like r/canada and r/suddenlycaralho respectively.

Yeah, it’s not sustainable to just flock to one instance to the point of there being no real competition. Lemmy.world now hosts nearly 3 times as many user accounts as lemmy.ml- the second-largest instance and a much older one too, and has gotten big way too fast.

It seems that the images are stored on imgur

I’ve got an alt on sopuli.xyz

Yes, it’s great. I’d also recommend Memmy since it shows downvotes and upvotes separately instead of net score (which lemmy does, idk about the other reddit-like federated sites) to discourage circlejerking
