Being the biggest instance and having defederated with a couple of instances has made us a target.
Hexbear was down too... but I guess the spectre haunting Lemmy is too scary to allow you to imagine any other culprit
I liked to check in on r/popheads from time to time on reddit because I'm into pop music, and there's /c/popheads@poptalk.scrubbles.tech, which doesn't seem to have that many users so I'd like to see that grow
Tbf Reddit was AGP too, real trutranners don't know what a computer is
I find there is a tragic lack of transgendercirclejerk here
Strongly agree. Mastodon is alright and I use it a little, but the twitter-type format never really worked for me. I feel like when I have to follow individual people I usually end up either following no one or being forced to follow people who post things that interest me sometimes but a lot of the time post things that really don't. Following particular topics or threads just seems much more natural to me; I can look at exactly what interests me and nothing more.
Does that really make it totally apolitical though?. Like obviously it's not inherently attached to a wide reaching political ideology, but it still is political in the same way that any free software is kind of political.
Phone bad.
Like they're objectively pretty useful but I find the experience of using one to just kinda suck and I avoid it as much as I can. I'd much much rather use a laptop or ideally my desktop if that's at all possible. No idea how some people manage so much time using their phones
Just found this community and saw nothing had been posted in a while so I figured I'd post my rice as it stands right now and hopefully bring a little more attention to it, since unixporn on Reddit has always been a nice source of inspiration. Definitely a bit rough around the edges and updates have made a few things a little off but anyway.
