Wait, why did you use “í?” It’s just “Debian.”

Definitely.

But surely you’d agree that we have more than enough space for even lifetime storage, no? Compare that to the junk emitted from nearly everything else. What is your proposed alternative?

I knew it was something around there, thanks!

Indeed, nuclear is among the safest and cleanest forms of energy currently available to us! All the waste in the world for life barely fills a few football fields’ worth of space, if I recall correctly.

The answer here is always “capitalism,” of course!

I never said that it is bad to limit online exposure, though. We agree.

I said that it is not bad to have online exposure* provided that you either already have a decent, offline social life, or are legitimately doing your best to work towards growing one. If online discussion is the majority of your social connections, then yes, that’s bad.

*Apparently if it’s not Lemmy.ml… I guess I’ll just delete the alt I have on that instance since it’s that bad, wow.

Use the Slide fork!

Of course there are redditors around; I’m another one of them. We frequent the cool subs like the very human /r/FreeGameFindings and ignore the rest of the noise. Milk Reddit for the best of what it has to offer and dismiss the rest. I see nothing wrong with this approach for as long as Lemmy is still budding, relatively speaking.

Historically, “social media” meant non-anonymous social connections in which nearly everyone knew everyone’s real names; in contrast, Reddit or Reddit-like networks like Lemmy were called “content aggregators.”

We’re also not in a bubble (what bubble anyway, of anticapitalism?) if we’re diversifying our exposure to different sides. The most important aspect is that Lemmy instances seem to be among the more bot-free forums, whereas FB is completely overrun by “AI” spewing lies and fake studies, for example.

I would argue that it only makes you “sick” (what kind of sickness, anyway?) if this is your primary means of your socializing. Message boards involving strangers utilized in one’s life in this way should only be a temporary lifeline while you work to gradually build/rebuild a habit of regular, in-person contact. As long as you’re diligently striving towards that, it’s likely a (perhaps small) net positive. Social media, content aggregators, forums, message boards, etc. are only a net negative if they’re your primary approach to voluntary contact with people.

now it’s pretty much just piefed/lemmy, and will eventually delete these too

Really? What’s wrong with stuff here?

Do Linux phones need to run a Kickstarter?

Let’s hope!!

Is it really fixing if it’s only short-term with mounting technical debt?

Wait, what’s the third?

Hilarious!
