      As an American I have no idea what this bizarre contraption is

        That sign has a Z and letters with accent mark over it.

        So I think this a picture of communism?

        I’m pretty sure we have those in usa. It has many names, like commuter train.

      Man, as an American I wish I had that kind of picture to take.

    I have a filter on

    Trump Musk ICE Vance [Ai] slop Microsoft Grok

    My All Feed is basically empty now or consists of posts with zero or very few comments. I love the filter option, but it has also made it quite clear what is being pushed the most on Lemmy.

      Yeah just some of the most important world events going on. Crazy how people talk about that stuff.

      source
      • TwoTiredMice@feddit.dk ⁨15⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Sure, but i’ve just reached a point where I don’t want to get bummed out, everytime I open a social media app.

        There must be positive things to talk about, and not just the enshittification of everything and the end of the world.

        I don’t care about things that happen in my country cause rest of the people don’t. I have stopped reading news in the last 3-4 years cause the situation is hopeless. 

        Same goes for USA.

      Yeah people have been talking about having less and less activity on Lemmy.

      IMO it’s because of the content. The platform works flawlessly but unfortunately lemmy came about during a time that politics being so pervasive.

      It might be a general trend. I’m willing to bet all social media is slowly dying but the for profits inject bots to keep their numbers up.

      Along with your list, I have also blocked these communities. This is half list.

        My issue with that is that I would like getting the raw deal once in a while to not stay uninformed, something like multiple custom filters would be cool. All we have right now is the subscribed list and the All list, which is filtered. Would be nice to have several filter lists.

      I think i should look up the filter function… So far I just blocked the most communities in all which do not use englisch or German.

      …really? You don’t get tech/linux posts?

        It’s primarily Linux posts that’s left haha. Luckily, I don’t mind that, as I have recently started using Linux again.

  • echodot@feddit.uk ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    It’s impossible because Trump keeps doing things it can still be 3:00 in the morning over there and he’ll do something. All Europe seems to have is the Germans, and they keep posting in their weird secret language.

      As someone that can read German, das ist keine Problem. Es war sehr gut für Deutsch zu lernen. (My German is shit tho)

        Huh good point. I had it default to undetermined which also had a tooltip that I won’t see most content. So I unselected all, let’s see

    Here I am from the Balkans.

    But I feel like posting about USA, until it’s never relevant again.

      Well then post some articles about whats been going on in tge Balkins, I’ve got a buddy in Belegrade

      • WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today ⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Alright then. I have not been following much, ironically. I think America is of course, trying to meddle in our oil refinery deal, after putting sanctions on our refinery (which was partially owned by Russia).

        I am secretly very happy about the refinery problems…anyway, it starts work again 23th January.

        There were warnings that we would not be able to recieve pay on our credit cards (no transfers) or something like that as well.

        Caused me to withdraw all my cash.

      Is it just me, or is that a really hack thing to do in standup comedy? lol

      source
      • Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz ⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Its literarary shorthand for “this comic is bad at their job.” No comedians actually say that, unless they’re referencing a hack comedian.

    • Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world ⁨14⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Whoa whoa whoa whoa! Hang on a second. We didn’t elect a king. You don’t elect a king. We elected a dictator.

      There’s a difference.

      Kings are born royalty. This jackass got elected. We CHOOSE him. This is OUR fault. Whereas with kings, nobody chooses them. They’re just born into that role.

      source
      • db2@lemmy.world ⁨14⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        I don’t think we’re did though. Before even one vote was counted he was bragging that the results don’t matter because he has all the votes he needs. He literally announced that he’d rigged an election and nobody did anything about it.

        Of course you can elect kings. It’s called elective monarchy, there have been a few of those throughout history.

    Just block the rest. I blocked most of the USA stuff, because it’s too much. Trump said this, Trump did that, and some of the news are clickbait.

  • PrimeMinisterKeyes@leminal.space ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Just take a look at the large communities on Lemmy:

    • News: American
    • Politics: American
    • Memes: American AND political

    I could not find any European meme community at all, and if there was one, I have a hunch it would be flooded with things Trump said or Musk said or whatever is new on Netflix. I guess news about the Circular Economy or the microplastics regulation, being rolled out slowly and in phases, though absolutely affecting EUropeans’ everyday lives, are just not quite as entertaining from an existentialist POV.
