That’s really fascinating. Thanks for the explanation

Amazing! So many features that people have been requesting. Really impressive release 🫡

It is marked NSFW.

Tremendous news! Looking forward to exploring all the new changes and improvements

Not with that attitude!

Keep up the good work, it’ll happen any day now.

It’s funny, the things that stick in your mind aren’t always the things you would expect

Yeah, it’s not a great relationship.

During the colonial period, more than 100,000 Koreans served in the Imperial Japanese Army. The service of these Korean men was forced upon them.

Approximately 200,000 Korean children (predominantly ages 12–17) were also sent forcefully as “comfort women” at the war frontlines to serve the Imperial Japanese Army as sex slaves.

In 2013, polls reported that 94% of Koreans believe Japan “Feels no regret for its past wrongdoings,” while 63% of Japanese state that Korean demands for Japanese apologies are “Incomprehensible”

Now consider how many poor people were generated by black slavery, segregation, and explicit racism in America, and how, in a society, we all just swim around in the same trauma soup, deflecting pain towards one another.

That’s a nice thought 😳

Am I seeing an obscure Biblical reference? In an anime community?

Lemmy really is the complete opposite of reddit in many ways. Instead of constant disappointment, I’m in a state of constant amazement.

“Final Season: Part 2” baited me hard. I couldn’t even fathom that they weren’t going to wrap things up at that point. I had waited to watch the first part and I thought I was clever.

Nope, another cliffhanger. Fuck me.

Lol fair play I’m not very familiar with 196, I may have been mistaken

Fuck bro. This shit is too heavy for 196. I’m shook

Says the guy who calls himself “Raddnaar”

You may well be correct, I simply read a comment that said they prefer Liberapay.

I enjoyed Fool’s Paradise. Wasn’t perfect but I feel privileged to watch Charlie Day’s creative mind at work. Also the cast was great, if not utilized to the fullest extent. Satire of the film industry is always a favorite of mine.

The critics gave it a really hard time though.

Top comment of the pooping post had the same situation happen. It’s actually a feature, not a bug 😅

As the antagonist of this thread, I would have to disagree with this statement. I was, initially, very dismayed to see that no one had taken issue with this comment. Alas, here I am, to set things right. Being that most online communities seem to revolve around my person, I thought that I’d share these thoughts that so many of you had been patiently awaiting.

This killed me 🤣

Another big difference is the lack of vote fuzzing. It’s more obvious when people are abusing the upvote/downvote function, and it feels more meaningful when you know each vote directly represents a real person.

On kbin you can even see publicly which user made each vote, but idk if that functionality is planned or possible on Lemmy. It’s quite useful for combating brigading.

I recognize a lot of people already but that’s probably because I’m terminally online 😅

That’s why I’m feeling a lot better about the steady rate of growth here. At first I just wanted to get everyone over from reddit ASAP, now I’m like okay, I could get used to the small town vibes with a bunch of cool people.

It’s going to be an amazing journey as this place continues to grow. Just remember to laugh at the inevitable drama and cry at the bad memes. Never the other way around 🙃
