I’m still on my 2016 iPhone SE. It’s slow and buggy but for my purposes it’s great and the screen is only 10cm (4in).

I think a lot of people start on Lemmy.world and lemmy.ml but then overtime switch to other instances they made alts on. I think it’s a cool way that things work and centralisation gets avoided.

Fuck that.

blahaj is an instance that federates with lemmy.world. So you have access to the content on there.

Check out !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone for example.

BeeHaw does not federate with lemmy.word due to moderation issues. If you want to access beehaw, I recommend making an alt account of a server like https://discuss.online/ or https://sopuli.xyz/

!comicstrips@lemmy.world

is blocked on my instance (lemmy.blahaj.zone). Because the lead mod was banned from blahaj for posting a (non-political) comic strip made by a nazi sympathiser and not apologising.

Welcome lol

Yep, just really important to stress it’s a massive oversimplification — but that oversimplification is suprisingly accurate. Maybe like how newtonian mechanics is a massive oversimplification of how the world works but is suprisingly good at predicting things.

Class struggle is a fascinating way of analysing history, and can be a really powerful analytic framework.

But obviously not everything is class, hence, ✨intersectionality✨

Sorry I’ll let someone more knowledgeable answer about metadata, but signal does allow you to set a username and hide your phone number (so people add you with username instead if f number)

Sure. But ur post aint shit. It’s a good post.

Are you using an app, or a website UI, if so the default one or one of the many others?

Who is titler?

I’ve honestly found signal better than matrix.

Matrix is just not there yet in terms of features UI etc and is less private than signal because it collects way more metadata and stuff. I know the idea of federation is cool, but Signal works better for the privacy aspect.

Why is this in the shitpost comm?

They also have stopped updating lemmy so they are running on really old software — which makes them incompatible with most apps!

Truly a shit post. Congrats

I know someone who deliberately misanlysed data in a study that led to an entire patient group getting denied disability benefits because his study showed the condition is “curable” (it isn’t). (His study was funded by the government department paying disability benefits and private disability insurances, of course).

Did he get what he deserved? No, he got knighted by the Queen, is serving on the board of the NHS, and is an insider with the ruling class.

Dozens, I say!

lemmy.cafe, lemmy.zip, lemmy.one

Same — that’s why I tend to point people to a specific instance, instead of lemmy as a whole.
