That’s interesting!

I am allergic to most meat, and the few types I can still eat I don’t like to cook myself, because meat is something you need to make sure is cooked properly to be safe. So I end up rarely having it, and honestly, my life is no different. The rare times I do have it, it’s great, I enjoy ribs, bacon, etc, but it’s nothing I would get angry and defensive over.

I buy the beyond meat sometimes, and it’s delicious as hell. I go to vegan restaurants, as I can guarantee my deathly allergy is not going to pop up there, and it’s bomb ass food (usually. I find that some vegan places are -3/10, but others are 11/10 and their “meat” tastes 100% authentic and real, it’s something you need to discover.).

the whole idea of an electric bicycle is dumb.

It’s not.

It gets you from point A to B, costs nearly nothing to charge, and is environmentally friendly.

Why waste money on a electric alternative of a transportation device that was made to both make you do excercise AND to get you places?

It gets you there faster and without sweating. My eBike goes 50KPH. I arrive at my destination with no sweat.

If you want to get places faster, or just showoff on two wheels, that’s what motorbikes are for.

I’m sorry, but you’re being very ignorant. A motorbike is thousands of dollars, requires hundreds of dollars per month in insurance, requires licenses, maintenance, fuel, etc.

Not to mention not everyone can ride a standard bike. Older people, people with chronic illnesses, etc. I personally had a double lung transplant. I’m not pedal biking, nor am I paying $750/month for motorbike insurance in my province.

To get places? I don’t understand the question.

I’d use my ebike, but that shit will get stolen as soon as I leave it anywhere, and I cannot afford the $3,000 to replace it. So if I am actually going places, I have to drive my vehicle.

Thanks, thieves!

Canada is already doing that. What do you mean you cannot afford a 1.8 million dollar crack shack and $15 loaf of bread? Probably because you don’t want to work at a call center for $15 per hour. Oh, and our requirements are that you have 3 college or university degrees, btw! (actual job application and requirements)

Every time you suggest to meat eaters to eat less meat, they become violent.

Even if you suggest them cutting their 14 meat meals per week down to maybe 12 meat meals (skip one day), they flip their shit.

So ya, good luck suggesting to anyone to eat 30% less.

Reddit deleted all of my accounts and IP banned me a few months ago because of a shitty power tripping mod on the Android subreddit.

You have no idea how happy I am that Reddit is imploding right now. I finally get to be part of conversations again.

You should use cloudflare tunnel. Helps secure your server and doesn’t matter if you don’t have a static IP.

no Karma competition

EDIT: THANKS FOR THE DOWNVOTES YOU IDIOTS.

EDIT 2: LMAO LIKE I CARE ABOUT DOWNVOTES, KEEP THEM COMING

EDIT 3: YOUR DOWNVOTES FUEL ME

…

EDIT 99: comment removed by user

It’s always funny, because they will be at -1 and cry like they don’t care, but then delete the comment because they want it to stop lmao.

Yea. Literally every reddit comment I posted resulted in someone replying to me in a toxic way.

I’ve only blocked one person on lemmy and that’s because they were replying to me in a toxic manner. That’s the first reply I’ve had that’s toxic, and I nipped it in the bud. I don’t care to have fighting matches back and forth.

Have you noticed if you go to Reddit and click on any thread, usually within the first comment thread, someone will be hating on another person? Fuck that.

I’d honestly suggest everyone block anyone who is being toxic. Not to mention, others don’t want to see your drama while looking through comments.

Thanks!

I’d love to get one. I know they are trying to keep everything compatible, but I know one day they’ll need to introduce a v2 to make the chassis slimmer or something, and I feel like I should wait for that.

I know I will get so deep into the ecosystem just for them to release a v2 and not be able to upgrade my components anymore.

I mean it’s just inevitable. There’s no way for them to make progress if they are locked into a very specific form factor forever, and I do think the current framework laptops look straight out of 2008.

No, honestly.

I hate that the algorithm is super broken and the only meaningful sort option is “TopDay”, which means Lemmy is only good for me to look at once every day at the same time.

Admittedly, I’m so bored, I open Boost for Reddit for more content.

Really hope more content comes to lemmy before third party apps shut down.

How’s the framework? I’m really interested it in. Any downsides?

Must be nice. Reddit banned my 11 year old account a couple weeks ago lmao.

Windows 11.

I just require Windows for a lot of software. The thing holding me back from switching to a Linux distro, used to be Adobe Premiere and Adobe Photoshop. I have since moved to DaVinci resolve, and I also purchased the Affinity Suite.

Now the problem is that the Affinity Suite doesn’t support Linux either…

It’s getting exhausting trying to make Linux work for me, and I already have to give up a lot of stuff, and make compromises, so I’m just sticking with Windows.

Yea, that’s why I said it needs developers to contribute to it badly. I understand that the developer has basically abandoned it.

There was an update yesterday. Some people are contributing to it, which is good. Hopefully more come, and the app really gets an overhaul before July 1st. I think having a decent app is key to keeping people here, especially if people are migrating because of apps.

Lemmy on the desktop is great. It’s so much cleaner than Reddit ever was. I really enjoy it. It’s missing a bunch of features for moderation and other things, but for now it gets the job done.

Reddit via Jerboa for Android is rough. The app looks fine, but things just don’t work. Clicking on links refreshes the feed and you lose your place, opening photos doesn’t work half the time. It’s a rough experience. It needs developers to contribute to it badly, or one of the popular Reddit client devs need to come in and make a Lemmy app.

I’ve only seen negative toxic posts and comments from lemmygrad users. Everyone else has been really fun to talk with.

Say what you will about reddit, at least an established subreddit was the place to gather on the topic, ie r/technology etc.

There are plenty of subs that have branched off due to corrupt mods and other things.

/r/meirl and /r/me_irl

/r/web_design and /r/webdesign (merged now, though)

/r/gaming, /r/truegaming

but I do agree with you. It definitely hurts to have communities fragmented. Especially if new users don’t understand how to view or subscribe to communities outside their instance, they may never see the more popular community on a different instance.
