Is there a more politically and ideologically diverse alternative for Lemmy?
I know the real answer is reddit but I really don’t want to go back now that I’ve already grown used to life without it. I was hoping for Lemmy to be a viable substitute but it isn’t. I can see how this place is wonderful for the certain type of person but that person is not me. My experience during the past 6+ months has...

Do you ever worry that you're secretly a psychopath that unknowingly manipulates people around you?
Someone recently told me that they sometimes feel gaslighted around me because I effortlessly make them question their beliefs and feelings. Hearing that didn’t sit well with me, especially since I’ve been pondering the question in the title for quite some time....

Banned for not breaking the rules, but disagreeing with a mod (i.ibb.co)
This makes no sense to me. There’s people in the comments literally telling me to go kill myself and that’s fine but, me politely disagreeing is worthy of a 30 day ban.
This place is even more negative than Reddit

What is it, that you currently imagine is stopping you from being content with your life?
How would you feel about the ability for everyone to perfectly curate their online feeds?
This could be a tool that works across the entire internet but in this case I’m mostly thinking about platforms like Lemmy, Reddit, Twitter, Instagram etc. I’m not necessarily advocating for such thing but mostly just thinking out aloud....
I can't help but wonder how my life would be different if mindlessly staring at screens wasn't an option
YouTube is my vice. I spend hours and hours and hours there watching videos every single day. I’ve recently however starting to resent the fact that apparently I seem to prefer watching other people do stuff rather than do that myself. Watching interesting videos feels like a leisure but doing interesting stuff has somehow in...
How do I use uBlock to hide threads with certain urls?
The filter I use to hide threads based on keywords doesn’t seem to work for urls but I’m sure this is possible aswell.
I fixed my dad's angle grinder with a ball bearing I salvaged from my gerbil's old excercise wheel a few years back. (i.ibb.co)
It was even the same brand. I love when hoarding materials pays off.
Social media platforms should not display post scores to the users
The ability to up- and downvote posts and comments is useful but the score should not be displayed to the users and you shouldn’t be able to enable it even if you wanted to. This means both, posts made by you as well as by others....

How do I deal with billing close relatives for work as an entrepreneur?
I live in a country that has treated me extremely well. I’ve benefited from a ton of free services paid with taxpayer money including education and healthcare so I feel the responsibility to do my part and pay my taxes....
