While we had some server issues last month and also did not yet upgrade to the latest version of Lemmy (due to federation bugs with it) we can still welcome more users in 2024.
This is exactly why I’m here now. My normal instance, like many, has been rendered useless due to the outbound federation bug and the lemmy devs are AWOL. I was already active in some communities on this instance so I was pretty happy to see y’all hadn’t upgraded to 0.19/0.19.1 yet. Thanks for providing a new home base for me!
Vivek Ramaswamy’s campaign also stopped all TV ad spending with less than a month to go before Iowa and New Hampshire. So yeah, this is the only way he can get any attention right now before he drops out in February and tries to become a right wing media personality.

States that participate in the federal program are required to cover half of the administrative costs, which would cost Nebraska an estimated $300,000. Advocates of the program note that the administrative cost is far outweighed by the $18 million benefit, which the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates would benefit 175,000 Nebraska children who might otherwise go hungry on some days during the summer.
Imagine being such a reprehensible monster that you’d let 175k children in your state starve rather than participate in a federal program that’d help feed them when school is out each summer. It’s unconscionable.
