I'm definitely a recent convert. I hate Windows 11 and all the various features it shoves down my throat these days. I bought a steam deck and ended up dabbling in the desktop mode enough to realize the learning process will be mostly fun for me. I'm mostly gaming these days anyway. I don't use the computers I have at home for much more than that.

I said that Trump better watch out for dancing girls in metal bikinis trying to strangle him with their chains.

Honestly, the longer I have been away from it, the more dumb it seems. So I don't care. I can still read it, and I do - mostly to look for hardware related computer information from people who know more than me.

Im in the medical field and have already spotted several posts giving incorrect medical advice that I now can't correct. It used to be my thing. Its a shame the admins don't concentrate on that kind of harmful misinformation, but whatever.

No...they're much dirtier than that, apparently, although it's difficult to know for sure. There are many results in Google if you look for methods, and sometimes people in the biz chime in with some good answers, but it's still mostly speculation.

Yeah. "Reddit admin" is the 5th Cluster B personality disorder. Its like when you're young and the guy in class with the most prominent Adam's apple gets put in charge while the teacher takes a piss.

...its kinda funny that I received a lifetime ban from reddit for glorifying violence.

...with a joke about Princess Leia killing Jabba the Hutt no less

When something is unidentified, it's baffling by default.

Wait! I didn't know this. If I use a VPN can I simply download the Euro version? I don't mind paying for it.

Edit: I'm i dumbass. You simply select the location on install. How stupid is that? Why does nobody tell me these things?

Yep. This was me. I followed the android Sync app here. User-created content should not be monetized. Im not going to subscribe to something that's mostly memes, attention-seeking behavior, and bullshit.

I had hated reddit for ages. Many trigger-happy omniscient mods who couldn't admit to a mistake if it swam up their arse and blew a trumpet. I was eventually perma-banned for glorifying violence by making a Star Wars reference about Trump. I can only assume the mod wasn't old enough to remember Star Wars movies.

I had been there from the bright and cheerful early days and watched it become 99.8% trash.

Lemmy has hit the rewind button for me. It kinda sucks that so many people are trying to emulate what modern reddit had become, but it still feels refreshing. With a bit of luck, Lemmy will go in a direction I prefer. It's not that I don't want people to do whatever they want, but i feel like some instances will cater to certain demographics.

Amazing nostalgia. I can't remember how to do it!

This is the one. It's a perfect relaxation show.

I don't think that's WHY it's stigmatised. It had to be stigmatized before that to be applied to selfish people.

It's a disorder that is harmful to others and difficult to understand. For others to cope with it requires navigating a complex network of negative behaviors. Manipulation and lack of empathy are the traits of a psychopath, and none of us want that.

The OP lacks empathy but evidentally desires it from others. If you understand why you need empathy, then you understand why lack of empathy is stigmatised.
