Nah. The different character of the communities and their history makes them unique and special, hiding that for broad appeal is unnecessary.
No need to muddy the waters with weird client-side obfuscations, one big one almost always wins and the other gets reposts, while subscribing to both is trivial if one wishes
We cannot win by changing the fediverse into something like what we left behind because it will no longer be the fediverse we know and love, all we have is the good fight of educating people on why it is better and ourselves as an example - a city on a hill to which others may flock if they see the shine, and it may not be a fight we can win but it is the only fight worth fighting.
I love Canis Canem Edit!
I feel like you’re just not subbed to enough stuff. That said I don’t spend more than an hour on here/my phone per day.
Unsure, never heard of those.
Mfer what part of “he received it in 2022” do you not comprehend?
Try out Jerboa as well! Did it on day 1 of the exodus and had zero problems.
Nah it’s been pretty busy. I don’t browse all and only sort by scaled and if I ever ran out of content I think I would be the problem haha
Americans talk about America and Europeans talk about Europe, more news at 11.
He received it in 2022 and Azov really is a neo-nazi unit so it’s perfectly plausible, I say this as someone who is generally pro-Ukraine’s right to self-defense and self-determination and anti-Putin (and have been long before the war due to LGBT issues)
I also believe that ads in games are OK with minimal disruption
Yeah you’re gonna find this to not be a popular opinion in the non-mobile gaming spaces. I block all vidya from accessing the internet in any fashion.
I mean, it could be very fun and perhaps even worth playing, but surely you understand that a game that on-paper doesn’t require the viewing of ads, but heavily incentivizes just that is still problematic?
It’s like one of those “free-to-play” particularly grindy MMOs, sure, you don’t have to pay, just grind the “kill 10 goblin rats in a basement quest” for 250 hours and you’ll have all the loot you need to get to level 2, but the option to pay is there if you so-choose it.
In such a case it is fairly obvious that there is not actually a choice when you are heavily incentivized towards one end.
Not really any ads either, unless you choose to watch them for more coin.
Not really any ads
What. So are there or aren’t there
unless you choose to watch them
Why? Is there some sort of incentive?
for more coin.
So not only are there ads but you’re manipulated into watching them. That checks out for a mobile game.
It’s actually easy to tell whether you’ll have a reaction by going to the store or humane society and asking to hold them for 5 to 10 minutes.
Well I’ve been around cats all my life, pretty much since very early childhood and I’ve never had any reaction really. I’ve not been allergic to anything in my life period.
A few months before I adopted the cat, I was at my gf’s friend’s house and she had a cat there that I held and played with and petted.
Just before I adopted the cat I did end up adopting I went to see and converse with the folks I was adopting from and I def was around the cat for over half an hour.
While I had the cat she’d lick me all the time, never any issues. The effects would start maybe a day or two after we got her. It didn’t even fully stop until at least a day later.
So in my case I guess not. Thanks for the advice though. I was thinking of looking into adopting a Siamese cat at some point. Ofc I’d try to do a lot more due diligence allergy wise, but I really don’t know what I could’ve even done realistically. I don’t think I could stand having to give a pet back because of any health issues on my behalf again. Thanks
I likely think there was something she would emit, some sort of fur particulate or something else because she loved sitting on my lap and just being right in my face and I was fine. Only literally being in the house with her would mess me up, and after like half an hour outside I’d be okay again.
This lack of direct correlation made me think I was just sick for the longest time until I connected the dots that time outside made me feel immediately better.
She was an odd cat. Fur was unreal silky, extremely impressive even for a cat, and also quite long, and the previous owner said how they’ve never really had to trim it or do anything to her coat at all because she maintained it herself really well. I’ve a gut feeling it’s connected to that.
Had a cat that I was somehow allergic(?) to. Just constant itchy red eyes. Eventually coughing and wheezing. Never been allergic to a damn thing in my life, including other cats. Never understood it. Shed go all around my face and I would be fine, then suddenly she’d just be about the place and my eyes would get so bloody I swear blood was actually leaking out of them. Had to return her. Loved her to bits in those few weeks. 😭
Nintendo when I agree to the terms and conditions so my children can have fun for an hour
I much prefer using a native phone app. Websites and web apps moreso were a mistake.
Nah. Algorithms, especially personalized as a way of sorting a feed are just a shite idea. Maybe one of the iOS apps will add something like that but if anything is being different is a selling point. I got two friends on fedi by telling them that “it has no algorithm” which is a simplification of course but you get the gist. It also really hits home that this is not a corporate product.
