Sure. Firefox is developed by lovely people.

What does it say when you hover/click on the question mark next to it?

Are you thinking of Snowden?

Not to mention released the next day, and reportedly in good health and high spirits since. Like, talk about best possible outcome.

Sure, but it’s still a lot more reliable than something like the amazon review section, or a lengthy AI-generated article comparing the two products you just happened to google together that somehow manages to say nothing at all.

Honestly, I still just google for relevant reddit threads. Lemmy’s the only place I actively participate in, but this is one of the use cases it hasn’t been able to replace reddit for for me either yet.

$1000 to someone with $100,000 is like $1,000,000 to someone with $100,000,000. To make your point you’d have to do it backwards: $1000 to someone with $100,000,000 is like $1 to someone with $100,000.

I downvote non-English results I see on my All page as a punishment for not correctly setting the language on the post, which takes 1 second to do and would ensure it doesn’t spam the feed for non-speakers. I can’t imagine I’m alone - was the post in question not correctly tagged as Polish content, like your post is correctly tagged as English content?

If it was correctly tagged, then those downvotes were all from people who speak Polish.

Merry Christmas!

The second line should be r²y on the left, not ry² 😉

I mean, this lemmy post would be exhibit #1 - but even without it it is not at all difficult to establish intent to deceive from just the actions OP is suggesting and nothing more. Sometimes intent is the easy part.

I’m not so sure about changing the terminology, but if we did, I think it should be a word that implies what the situation is: That the instance they pick isn’t a walled garden in itself, but just an access point to the wider connected Lemmyverse. I think that was a common confusion point for most of us when we first heard of Lemmy.

So… “access point”? Or “gateway”? Or for a milder change, going from “instance” to “default instance” might get the point across.

Deeply attached. If anything ever happened to it I’d be completely devastated.

I wasn’t really raised into religion - my mom was a believer (Honestly not sure if she still is, I’ve picked up hints that may have changed), but she never once went to or brought me to church, we never talked about religion, etc. I think she got enough of that stuff when she was a kid.

I do like to go all-out on decorating for Christmas - just last year I spent a whole lot of time setting up and coding my own tree full of individually addressable RGB LEDs, in addition to all the other decorating on the interior of the place.

Despite that I still love saying “Happy Holidays” to anyone who gets bothered by that phrase. 😁

The old forums aren’t dead yet. I still visit a proboards forum with five active users!

This but about how almost everything about Lemmy is spun as either good, or better than reddit’s equivalent.

Like the other day I saw a post about how Lemmy’s active users were on the decline, trying to claim that was somehow good for Lemmy. Or back when Lemmy had its /r/place copy, there were plenty of people saying it was better than reddit’s. Basically anything about Lemmy that’s somewhat lacking has people desperately trying to defend it as actually superior.

It borders on delusional at times. Yes Lemmy is good, but reddit is still better in dozens of ways, almost all of them related to user count. And this is coming from one of the people who deleted their reddit account and replaced it with Lemmy cold turkey - I haven’t been back there (except for porn) in almost 8 weeks.

Whenever they put that “Dear reader, if everyone reading this sent $X, etc” notice at the top of an article, I send whatever the amount they mention in the notice is.

I’ve only ever noticed it like 5 times since I started doing that a bunch of years ago - not sure if that means they don’t ask that often, or if it means I don’t visit them often enough to always see it.

Same domain. Every email is just the username it’s associated with @ the domain (Not gmail). The passwords are different between account and email (And no two accounts anywhere share passwords).

As of right now I have 19 already-created email accounts just waiting to eventually be associated with some account I’ll make for some service in the future. Any time I get low I’ll make a bunch more at once. I have almost 60 accounts across the internet using this system already. It does get a bit annoying when certain sites want to email me a login code every time I log in.

Makes sense. I’ve been considering making an identical alt on beehaw, but I’m still holding out hope they’ll refederate.
