  Nobody, that’s kinda the point. If they were more easily / cheaply repaired, more people would

  I hate “light mode” so much

  Don’t default to it as it makes the page as blinding as the mid-day sun. If you want make it optional that is fine but don’t force it.

  The best distiction i’ve heard is that social media follows people (twitter, youtube, mastodon, etc… whereas lemmy, reddit, etc… follow topics. They’re more like news feeds with a comment section.

  I’m gonna deal with your ignorant ass in just one comment because i’m capable of coherent thought.

  First of all, you’ve never been to a Kentucky corn field so fuck right off with that. Your deafened city ears don’t know what quiet actually is. Paris is a city. Even if people are tip-toeing around and whispering, it’s going to be louder than any rural area just by pure scale of humanity moving around. But people don’t do that, do they? No, they drag their screeching offspring to the store, or drunkenly yell at each other on the street in front of a bar, or repair a sidewalk or 5 with jackhammers and cement mixers.

  Junkies? Who said anything about junkies? If you’re referring to the urine smell, look no further than the rampant liquor establishments infesting cities and fueling wall-pisses in alleys nearby.

  Humans used to exclusively exist in small rural tribes, it’s cities that are an unnatural concentration of people that only began as a central place for people to come, get rid of shit they don’t need, get some shit they need and leave as fast as possible to not be mugged, kidnapped, raped, or murdered.

  The food produced in rural areas? Again, that’s all you think is going on there? I work in tech and so do most of my neighbors. Get a better perspective. You’re the reason I hate cities.

  I’m done here, feel free to have your last, ignorant comment. I’ll never know

  Local coal plant? Is that all you think exists in rural areas? Maybe you fuckcars idiots need to do a bit more research before spouting your city-centric views all over the place. Some people just don’t want to be a sardines in you urine-smelling concrete noise factory.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get in the pod, inhale the fumes.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If that happens, you’ll see a bunch of retalliation fromm WFH programmers-turned-political-hackers

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get in the pod, inhale the fumes.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This. I HATE cities. Crammed up against everyone else, smells, noises 🤮. I’m over 10 miles to the nearest grocery store and all these fuckcars weirdos will do some fucking mental gymnastics to explain a RURAL life without cars. I don’t think a single one of them has been anywhere where there is actual forest between cities/towns. They live in a city with great public transit so that must be how it is everywhere, right?

  It seems to me that you don’t hate moderators, you hate that they are necessary nowadays. If so, i’m right there with ya. The web used to be a much more magical place

  I listened to whatever that is for a full minute and it was literally a long screeching note the whole time… Wtf is it supposed to be? Music?

  Imagine working in an office where you need to do that? Who says to themselves, “gee, i didn’t bring that thing so it must be OK for me to have some”? These kinds of tactics don’t come from nowhere

  Pretty much my thought process whenever somebody describes a piece of tech as “sexy”. So, you like, want to stick your dick in it? You do know what sex is, right?
