That's what I'm seeing too. Mastadon is kind of cool, there are some cool things to see there but it's in the world of Twitter, Instagram etc where it's all about the self promoting, and not about building community really.

I drink diet soda to not drink soda. I drink soda to not do drugs and alcohol. I'd much rather have heroin than diet coke, but I probably shouldn't ever have that again. So I'll have a diet coke, on ice please.

Should get rid of paywall

I suggest we do it over Australia.

Mastodon has been a better alternative to reddit for me than Lemmy has so far tbh, except it's not as interactive with other people I less you chase followers. But the niche communities have more activity over there than here so far.

Disc golf. Most cities of moderate size have a course somewhere around and most are free to use. Can get started with 1 disc, about 10 to 12 dollars for a putter, all you'd need to start, or get a starter set of 3 discs for about 30 to 40 bucks at most sporting goods stores.

Absolutely, also laws that regulate volume in all ads across all platforms. Also laws that forbid campaign ads.

Repost bots are way up, and covering the front page. I suspect in an attempt to make it look like business as usual.

This is the best option. Especially if you set the motion sensor lower to the ground so that the birds at the feeder aren't triggering it, just the cats when they come up.

Compared to musk? No. Not even close tongue same tier. But he's still a 1%er

Imagine paying 40billion dollars on a company to just sink it, and being like "oh well still rich lol"

Someone told me i was going to get banned for saying i joined lemmy.world on reddit.. and it's like.. Okay?? This site is shit now anyways, so you're going to ban me for using a different website, that's a great way to retain users during your mass-user revolt crisis.
