If you’ve heard their work, and understood who wrote it, you would know that Matty Healy is not a white supremacist. He’s just a fucking idiot with a shit sense of humor. Kinda tired of people framing people as extremists when they made a few problematic remarks on a couple podcasts at worst.

Punk isn’t a genre, it’s a lifestyle. Somewhere in the 90s people, including the artists themselves, mistook it only as a musical genre.

The 1975 is punk imo, even though they dont fit the genre.

Sorry, but I’m not going to listen to anybody who actively and purposely registers a .zip TLD.

Please, no.

Thanks so much for this! Been wondering about all of the other lemmy UI options out there. I’m currently hosting old reddit and alexandrite but now I have my eyes on Photon!

Oops didn’t realize what community I was in, my b!

If OP is looking for FOSS I suggest Element for Matrix. You can screenshare on there as well.

Just share your screen on discord

As long as the internet remains open, even if it’s in our own private corner, then we’ll always have a place to go, even if the place changes. If Google’s “internet DRM” ever becomes a thing, we’re completely fucked.

That’s cool! I used to work in a bookstore but always felt like it was trying to put a price on reading. Library would feel a lot homier for me I feel. Thank you for what you do! If it weren’t for Libraries as a kid I probably would have never fallen in love with reading.

Thank you! Exactly what I was looking for.

Well, time to start teaching myself how to create a docker container. Forking will be no issue, but creating the container will be completely new grounds for me. Thanks for the new project idea!

I posted this elsewhere but I’ll post it again.

I tried going back to Reddit the day before yesterday, and was immediately disappointed with how many useful comments for solutions for problems have been deleted due to the Great Reddit Migration of 2023.

I’m not upset at the people doing this, it’s just proof that this method of protest truly works. If I have any questions or wanna chat about a specific topic I’ll come ask here on Lemmy. That way, I can get answers to problems from you lovely people while building up the fediverse with useful tips and tricks.

I’m at the airport right now, about to leave for a week long vacation to Hawaii! I’ve never been before so it’ll be a super fun way to celebrate my one year anniversary with my wife!

Sorry to hear about the rough times OP. From one human being to another, keep doing your best and know that there’s another human somewhere hoping you are well. Cheers.

I started on lemmy.world, then decided to learn self-hosting server infrastructure and made my own instance. Found a script that allows me to “auto-discover” all communities from given instance URLs, so I just added the instances that interest me. Boom, I have an instance with all of my favorite instances searchable and discoverable on “All”.

For those interested in the script you can find it here. Do note that you should NOT use the default settings and make sure to use an instance whitelist, otherwise it’ll pull every instance ever.

Yeah, but you’d lose out on being able to have a profile banner/photo.

Yeah pretty much.

It only pulls from communities you have subscribed to. Images aren’t duplicated per server, just text; so even if you find something nasty it’s not hosted by you and you can always delete comments from the database/block users from appearing in your instance.

I’m a big fan of taking old electroics, taking them apart, and then organizing them neatly in a frame, like this example.

If you are going to keep electronics however, I definitely recommend removing the battery and recycling it. Phones aren’t fire hazards but batteries definitely are, especially the ones in the old iPods.

Please don’t. I was there. Abusive parents, bullies for relatives, the whole 9 yards. I’m now 28 and I have everything I’ve always wanted. Keep going!

Thought I’d throw my opinion into the ring here, since literally every comment is shitting on this.

Arc is a design project, that also happens to be a web browser. If you’re just calling this “another chromium fork”, I think you’re completely missing the point of who this product is for. First of all, it’s not for you.

Secondly, the design changes that arc is working on perfecting are pretty groundbreaking. The ability to customize the css and functionality of any web page without code and it saves your profiles for future use with a marketplace is super interesting to me. So much UI on modern websites is entirely unnecessary. As a designer, this is a dream.

Also, nobody is mentioning that their working on a Windows version THAT NATIVELY RUNS SWIFT ON WINDOWS. This is a big deal for future cross compatibility in general, why are so many people not looking at this?

Anyway that’s my rant. Trying to voice my opinions even if they’re the odd ones out to prevent a Lemmy based echo chamber. Feel free to disagree.

If there’s a 14-year-old coding prodigy who can do something truly amazing in less than 24 hours, we need you now more than ever.
