The advice is usually pretty common sense and likely nothing you haven’t heard before. The main benefit is having a safe space you can discuss your anxieties with a professional and having someone who will listen with minimal judgement.
Basically a paid friendship without all the other benefits of friendship.
Honestly I wouldn’t be going if it weren’t fully covered by my husband’s insurance.

If you want to avoid politics go on Pinterest or something. Nearly every discussion based social media will trend toward politics because that is the shithole we’re in now.

Yes, Lemmy is probably 60% people who were banned from Reddit for being overly political.

The best laser printer is a Brother laser printer from 10+ years ago before the cartridge subscription bullshit.
I landed one for $5 on Craiglist and have it connected through a CUPS server so I still have the modern ability to print from any device on the network.

Wow you must have a huge lack of reading comprehension or an overactive imagination. I don’t see anything about Palestine in my post.

I wasn’t saying the person you mentioned doesn’t exist or got banned. I’m saying you’re putting words into my mouth I never said, pretty blatantly. Though I feel you focusing on this other dude who got banned that isn’t even a part of this conversation and Gaza which I never mentioned is just more misdirection on your part.

They are only big by number because they are some of the oldest instances. The number of actually active users is less than .world or .ee.
They only seem more active because they are terminally online and have communities that are specifically designed to brigade threads when they don’t like what’s posted.

Let me guess, -proceeds to make up some bullshit nobody ever said-
How like a tankie to decide someone else’s argument for them since you’d rather argue against a strawman than actually be concerned about the facts.

Elon Musk made electric cars popular. Nazi scientists developed rocket technology. That’s all fine and good, but I’m still not going to give them my money.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
They’re
^communists^transphobic, class reductionists, support Russian invasion of Ukraine, support Uyghur genocide, support N. Korean dictators, worked hard to ensure Republicans won US elections, run an instance where they act like the authoritarian dictators they love and ban everyone who disagrees with them for being “liberals” 😱FTFY

Just like with Elon Musk, if someone wants people to support them monetarily, they shouldn’t work hard to make themselves objectionable to wide swaths of the population they are trying to extract money from.
- Comment on Pope 1 week ago:
I kinda a feel bad for the last pope. After his death he might have imagined people talking about his work and deeds. Instead, asshats are using AI to photoshop pope hats on the heads of idiots.

- Comment on Oblivion remake is... really making it apparent how outdated Bethesda is in its approach to making games 2 weeks ago:
Nah. The millennials would need enough time to play and beat the game and then come on online forums to bitch. We don’t have that time.
This is nearly always Zoomers and teenagers.
- Comment on Uncovered emails showed how Meta struggled to keep Facebook culturally relevant 3 weeks ago:
I left because they sell private data to companies that try to influence elections. And it was MAGA-fying all the boomers.
Zuck seems to be on an even worse trajectory lately. I refuse to use any meta products.

You don’t seem overly concerned about this. Why would you care?

I might have to try PieFed. I think this might inspire me to.

I almost left due to the toxicity of the tankie triad but luckily I learned the block features work well.

I think it’s also a lack of tech understanding. I know how easy it is to fork a repo so I get how great the fediverse is with all the services beong FOSS and anyone can create an instance. This major benefit makes no sense to someone who doesn’t even know what a git repo is or the difference between free (but you are the product being sold) and FOSS.
- Comment on X’s dominance ‘over’ as Bluesky becomes new hub for research 4 weeks ago:
We aren’t sure. It’s still a billionaire owned social media. For some reason people are too afraid of the freedom actual decentralized social media gives them and they want a billionaire behind the scenes running everything and coralling them to the correct opinions.

The only way to avoid this effect is only have sex with men. As long as you keep your socks on while you’re being railed, it’s not gay.
