TL;DR, my computer broke because I spilled water onto it. I got a new phone recently and my number was changed, so I couldn't use that to log back in with 2-step verification, and I tried send it to my alternate email instead.

ok to but to be fair, the creator of Lemmy is a tankie. not "anyone I don't like is a tankie" tankie, but "genuinely supports the Soviet Union and CCP" tankie.
apparently r/anarchism has been in lockdown for quite some time now and they link to their own reddit alternative called raddle.me, which is not fediverse integrated, sadly. they also have a long list of alternatives, but lemmy isn’t one of them...
I wish there was more of that stuff on the fediverse. I am so fucking tired of seeing nothing but political and anti-reddit circlejerk, since every time I log on here that's all I ever see. I don't even disagree with it, it's just that there is only so much "we are all going to die and there is nothing we can do about it!" outrage I can handle and it's making me constantly miserable, and this was part of why I left Reddit in the first place.
There’s been a lot of speculation around what Threads will be and what it means for Mastodon. We’ve put together some of the most common questions and our responses based on what was launched today.
Can we actually fight back, though? most of the people using the Fedi are on Mastodon, primarily coming from places like Twitter and Reddit because of the recent drama. The biggest complaint new people have is about how complicated Masto and other fediverse services are to get into for people who aren't tech savvy, between choosing different instances and figuring out how to use them. Meanwhile, Meta provides a familiar, convenient experience from a brand they already know, even with its horrible reputation. Then when 90% of "fediverse" users are on Threads instead of the rest of the fedi, they'll announce that they are dropping support for ActivityPub and there will only be a few thousand people left elsewhere to mourn it.

What were they thinking would happen, Florida is one of the worst places in the world for mosquitos and disease in general, or at least it would be without modern medicine. Even the Amazon has the advantage of not being one massive brackish puddle.

why the fuck are you voting for someone who made his own private militarized police force to protect his interests like a stereotypical cold war era dictator
Phoenician pro-tip: if you use a letter for each individual sound instead of one for every word, it makes for a more efficient writing system. Also DO NOT fuck with the Romans or random weirdo desert tribes they will murder you without mercy.
My 11 year old brother learned what rule34 was from Roblox staff because he tried to upload a model for a game he was making, and they denied it and said it was "rule34" when he asked why. The model was literally a cat
Fun fact, the term "7 seas" has never referred to any specific list of seas and is older than knowledge of the Pacific/Indian oceans by western cultures

Florida Has Approved PragerU ‘Curriculum’ for the Classroom (www.thedailybeast.com)
I've noticed that lemmy as a whole is much more leftist than reddit (outside of political servers of course)
I can’t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by “both” sides of the spectrum. It’s just something I find interesting.
