Well you kids have been a barrel of fun, but it’s time for sundown. Try not to let the extreme fringes burn this place to the ground! Holler at y’all never! 🤠

Interesting take.

Yes, they are behind you doing bunny ears behind your head.

What in tarnation!? 🤠

Ah, so you want a free speech instance. So if that is what lemmy.world is supposed to be, why do they ban folks that disagree with them? Why do they delete comments? What you are describing and what lemmy.world is are not matching up, my friend.

I mean, why not have one last hurrah in the comments?

No worries! I think I need to focus on actual social interaction, rather than the facade social media portrays. I like talking to people and listening to their stories, ideas, and ideals. I have a habit of stress-testing those ideals, but generally out of a desire to strengthen them by acknowledging the pitfalls they contain. I’m a social chameleon that is as fascinated my human nature as I am annoyed by it. Thing is, online interaction strips so much nuance from conversation that it takes so much extra effort to say something. It’s like talking to a brick wall sometimes.

Thanks for your unrequested opinion! 🤠

What if I go nowhere? What if I just abandon this social media dopamine dispenser altogether? Then I won’t have to listen to asshats from half way around the world try to explain why genocide is okay sometimes.

This specific thread in the comments, you apricot. See, this lack of common sense and reading comprehension is infuriating too.

Cool, my account is gone, but whatever. I think my life will be better without this place in general. So I’ll pass.

Shhh, this conversation is about lemmy.world

I ain’t asking anyone to agree with me. They are the ones who banned someone for disagreeing with them.

Guess which instance banned me, leading to my point. They are still tankie-sympathetic, as noted by the fact the JUST NOW defederated from lemmygrad. They hide it well, but they still have that lean.

For real. Like, I get the concept of commune living, but the larger the commune, the more of a threat human nature becomes.

It already does? I use it to remove videos that my wife or kid accidentally watched on my account. Removing the vids keeps them out of my algorithm.

You can already remove videos from your watch history.

I am borderline worshipping the algorithm for constantly bringing me new music to dig. A good 80% of the artists I’ve picked up in the last few years came as recommended by youtube or GPM/YT Music. And we aren’t just talking well known artists, either. Lots of good indie shit too! Idk, I guess if the internet is going to be allowed to know anything about me, it’s gonna be my music tastes.

You cannot stop kids from looking at porn. Doesn’t matter how hard you try, they will find a way around it. This is about collecting a database of porn preferences to probably use as blackmail.

She’s a goddamned moron. Feel free to check my correspondence with her on her post. That being said, you guys do need to have a conversation about fauxbait. It is legal, obviously so to anyone with half a brain cell, but the name does kinda cast a poor shadow on the instance. As we know, morons are loud and obnoxious and draw all kinds of unwanted attention, but they usually get what they want. Ya gotta ask yourselves if the community is worth the trouble it is going to continue to bring.
