Imma have to disagree on that one, I find discussion here on par with early reddit days. The good and the bad included. Although the internet in general has radicalised tenfold since those days.

I’d go back to the actually good reddit days, oh wait were there right now on lemmy

I’m sorry but not one part of your comment shows any problem with lemmy. We’re using federated social media specifically so any instance/community can exist is a vacuum, and that includes those you do not agree with.
There are plenty of comms not having anything to do with politics that thrive, politically loaded content does slip into my feed and discussion is rarely uncivilised - on par with early reddit days.
lemmy failed as a platform
This is exactly my problem, you think lemmy is one platform. It is not. It’s interconnected but seperate bubbles of activity that are brought together by federation, which has always been optional.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 1 week ago:
I’ve yet to see this impact the rest of lemmy when a simple defederation is sufficient.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 1 week ago:
I get it, it’s just not a good enough reference for a Lemmy-wide issue. Reddit had MAGA and die hard conservative communities, but they stay isolated; just as I’m seeing here on Lemmy. On Reddit they had brigading issues periodically, just as on Lemmy, you can just defederate on instance or user basis and problem solved.

Judging by active users, lemmy.world is the default, .ml isn’t even top 3. I’m getting pretty tired of people referring to Lemmy as a single platform while it’s entire purpose is to have a decentralized network where federation is always optional.

I went to lemmygrad to view the user, I know about the defederation
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 1 week ago:
I went to their instance but only found a single post?
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 1 week ago:
I keep reading about this, can you show me some examples of pro-CCP sentiment? Tbf I block political communities anyway but I’m curious what tankie behaviour people keep referring too.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 1 week ago:
Has the political stance of the devs ever impacted lemmy in any way? From what I can tell they do a pretty good job isolating their views to their instance. Honestly apart from a few comments I rarely see any tankies.

Following your upbringing is as reasonable as it gets. Going against what you believe isn’t just happening because you followed someone else’s reasoning, it’s something you navigate by yourself over a period of time.

Amen, I’m in the EU and only saw real statistics in college. Tbf propaganda in itself needs to be understood and thought better in general
- Comment on Differences of Opinion by Wendy Cope 1 week ago:
I’ve been in that situation countless times, I can tell you people want to believe the scientific method works but there’s always a reason they don’t. Here’s a few reasons I’ve encountered:
-
Eroding trust in institutions: they don’t trust the organisations or the people doing the studies. IMO news cycles play a big role in this; a study with a catchy result “A glass of wine a day is actually good for you” - by itself already a misrepresentation of the results - gets all the headlines. The countless of studies that prove no amount is good for you doesn’t get any.
-
They believe science is a book of solid answers, while it’s merely a methodology to find better answers. People have a hard time accepting this.
-
Post-information age: every bit of human knowledge at our fingertips is a true monkey’s paw. A real overload of information has people exhausted, they rather listen to someone like them than have big words thrown at them by scientists.
-
Misrepresentation of data: I cannot stress enough how easy it is to misrepresent data. Without proper context any piece of data can be framed to fit a narrative. Studying statistics was so counter intuitive, you’ll never be able to convince people going on instinct.
Honing in on where people get stuck can help you get through to them. I know this will sound corny, but if you talk to people from person to person, not being judgemental, and really try to listen, there’s always room for change.

“You can’t reason a person out of a situation they didn’t use reason for to begin with” is a lesson everyone learns eventually…

You’re a dimension short, this was shot on the South-Sudan to Uganda border where they use space-time curvature spiraling intersections to easily swap left hand to right hand traffic. Demonstrated in my simulations: Image

Don’t overthink it, the usual format is they’re crossing; each going opposite directions. Flipping the bottom panel just insinuates they’re doing the same thing

- Comment on Part of internet most harmful to teens? 1 month ago:
Anything with infinite scroll should not be accessed be anyone under 18.
Algorithm based social media is my second big nono. YouTube can be fine as long as no algorithms are involved.
Any social media app should never recommend connections, my SO works with at risk children and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard of a kid getting groomed because a rando added them on Snapchat. Random connections enable perverts. Discord is just as bad for the same reason.
Either way limiting screentime is extremely important, but just as important is technological education. Kids these days have no idea how to navigate the Internet because most adults can’t do it properly. Educate yourself always when educating the next generation.
- Comment on Can I still bypass Microsoft account creation when reinstalling windows through the "reset this PC" option? 2 months ago:
Honestly I have no idea how they keep getting away with adding more and more hurdles for local account creation. Literally no other OS for mobile or PC has this.
I’ve seen anything from devices with a local account automatically enabling bitlocker with no way of recovering if bitlocker trips to devices with an MS account tripping bitlocker only to find out the recovery keys are not saved to the MS account, absolutely bonkers.
- Comment on Can I still bypass Microsoft account creation when reinstalling windows through the "reset this PC" option? 2 months ago:
Yeah check which version of windows it installs, it’ll be 22H2 or 24H2.
- Comment on Can I still bypass Microsoft account creation when reinstalling windows through the "reset this PC" option? 2 months ago:
BypassNRO was removed from system files in 25H2 last year, unless you happened to be served an old ISO this won’t work anymore.
This is what I’ve been using since:
- Complete the initial Windows 11 install and restart your PC.
- When you reach the Secondary Keyboard Layout screen (before the Microsoft Account sign-up stage), press Ctrl + Shift + J to open the developer console.
- In the console, type the command: WinJS.Application.restart(“ms-cxh://LOCALONLY”)
- Hit Enter, then press Escape to close the console.
You can also use Rufus to make a setup drive which preconfigures the local account. This method and the one I use are described in this article.
PS: It still works if you copy the BypassNRO.cmd file from an old system to a new one when you’re in OOBE mode (Shift+F10) during setup. It’s just a powershell command that sets a registery key and reboots.

I was recently talking about this but with the moon. I’m not sure about a moon base but the next time mankind will land on the moon is 2028. If they settle and get a rotation going for supplies people could probably be living on the moon in 2030.
Enjoy looking up at a deserted moon while it lasts, soon you’ll always be looking up at moonmen.

In a way, I see it more as a square/rectangle situation. A game that helps to shape you is probably a favourite one, not necessarily the other way around. It’s a good thread either way.

Honestly I love reading about peoples favourite games! I thought it was funny in this thread
