You just need to be moderator of a sub, so just make one

Yup, I’m in the same situation

No chance they will block out the entire EU market. They will probably just do the same as everyone else and make a specific EU policy.

Actually I think Meta Threads is still not available in EU for the same reasons.

Boost for reddit still works fine

The number is :D

I, too, am tired of the constant pessimism. Almost everything is improving all the time.

On Lemmy it seems the biggest crisis is Google trying to make money off user data (as they always have been). Some people legitimately need to go outside and stop measuring world health by what mass media is currently telling them.

Big parts of Europe has. I pay about €17 for unlimited 5G.

I have wifi at home of course but I still mostly use cellular cus it’s faster lol

Same in Denmark. It was 15 until recently. We also held the record for teenage drinking for a long time, and still hold “most average alcohol per session” or something.

Yet we are statistically one of the “happiest” countries in the world. And take the most antidepressants!

The result of this is that all drinking Swedes just have a huge storage of alcohol at home though.

They also frequently drive all the way to Germany (through Denmark) to shop duty-free drinks in bulk.

Scandinavian countries have “pant” on bottles and cans, meaning you pay extra for the container, but get the money back when you return it empty.

What do you mean by “the user’s DNS” exactly??

He probably means whitelisting domains when posting already uploaded images, clearly not having read the post

I saw a video of someone teaching himself to like celery, and coerced my girlfriend to do the same - it works!

You literally just start by nibbling a bit every day and start eating more and more as you can handle it. She loves celery now, to the point where she just eats it raw as snacks.

Whether it’s worth the apparent torture is up to you. To be frank, picky eaters give me second hand embarrassment when out dining, since you can teach yourself to like basically everything. Usually it’s just people who didn’t get much variety as children.

I work primarily in tmux and even in an IT department, people regularly say something along the lines of “woah are you hacking?”

I hear it a lot from almost all my engineer friends, so I guess it just depends on your field.

Coming from C-like syntax, Python looks horrible to me. PHP has come a long way with 7 and 8.

I was never really on Digg, even though I was on the Internet since the early 00’s, but yeah, everything dies eventually.

Can’t think of anything aside from some obscure message boards that still exist today.

Reddit could suffer a 50% user drop and still make bank, but that won’t happen within the decade.

Boost for Lemmy is coming though

No, I don’t think there is a “not insignificant” number of people who would jump ship. We’re literally just a few nerds who dislike the monolithic corporate structure and care about privacy. Stop pretending the whole world is in the same boat. It’s turning into a weird tinfoil conspiracy.

It’s fine that we like it here, and I’m glad that we have an alternative, but people need to wake up and realize this isn’t some huge activist movement where we’re pwning “the man”. They don’t give two shits about these dumbass protests. They will do whatever necessary to continue growing and earning money. So stop giving a shit about them, stop talking about reddit, and just be happy users have the power with Lemmy.

Stop kidding yourselves… Reddit isn’t dying. It’s growing.

0.5% of users turned to Lemmy while the rest bent over.
