Kbin and Lemmy etc should simply allow options for preferred languages, and people can select whatever they prefer. Giving them the option to not see posts or see translated posts should work out fine. I bet this problem get resolved eventually. In the meantime, I’m not too bothered by blocking magazines/communities that are non-english. No biggie.

Wow, really awesome work you and the admins have done.

You have nothing to be sorry about. You politely inquired about posting memes, you didn’t simply start posting large numbers of them.

I’d prefer that memes mostly exist in communities clearly labeled to be meme filled, so that I can ignore them most of the time. I keep blocking more and more communities because I see a few memes from them…

The real chaos would happen if all the recent UFO stuff turns out to be true. Aliens existing RIGHT HERE ON EARTH could quite possibly cause changes in one or more major religions, but maybe not immediately.

I replaced my old, fairly high end pc with a fairly high end Beelink a few months ago, and it’s working out fine. The beelink mini is cheaper, better and faster in every way, and will end up as about 5% of the trash my old PC exists as. I’m not sure I’m going back to full-sized desktop pcs, despite being a game artist/game developer who needs somewhat high specs to do my work.

8, 9 and 10 years: you dislike change, you are incredibly broke or you only have a smartphone in the first place because it’s basically necessary to function in modern society

We live in a mini valley in a rural spot, and don’t get cell reception in our house. Also, I always liked using desktops much more than phones.

In my opinion, yes.

A related problem is the possibility Meta or other bad actors (e.g. Musk) invade the fediverse and destroy it, while they brainstorm ways to stay in business, but I’m more happy than bothered about their current businesses destroying themselves.

I’ll check out revolt.chat. Thanks for the suggestion!

Well, this seems like powerful motivation for me to eventually find a free open source positive alternative to Discord, while ignoring Discord in the meantime. I would love to bypass their enshittification phase entirely.

I don’t think subreddits can be deleted. A mod could set it to private and then quit being the mod, but then reddit would just appoint new mods.
