Absolutely! It’s not that corpos don’t try. It’s just not endorsed or supported by the community and is usually removed swiftly.

Moderation exists but it is built by the community at large, not corporate overlords. That may mean that harmful speech is removed more aggressively than on corporate sites. On most corporate media sites, bigotry or trolling has to be extremely overt before it is removed. On the other hand, the nature of Lemmy (and the fediverse in general) is that it’s a fairly low cost of entry, so there are many different people running many different instances, each with their own governance.

Try it out for a week or two, and if you find it worthwhile enough that you check it daily, I think it’s very nice donate to the person/people running your instance. It helps with the cost of running it.

There are no ads, no corporate content, no manipulative algorithm.

We are not perfect, but we’re a lot better than most of what’s out there. We’re a little bit weird, and most of our jokes are about Star Trek or canned produce (for reasons no one understands), but it’s a pretty cool place.

The abusive accounts have all been banned, and I’ve escalated this to admins. Thanks for letting us know.

There a a lot of "Billion"s being bandied around AI, and I feel like we have become a bit desensitized to it.

For $1 Billion, you could permanently and comfortably house 70,000 people.

I have no Idea how we got from bean memes to corn memes, but this is my new headcannon

Most account log-ins are at a system level. Google, email, etc.

However, you can set up multiple users on most devices. So if you want to only use Google login for certain apps, set those apps up under a different account on the phone.

Check in settings -> system -> multiple users.

I keep all of my sensitive apps under a separate login on my phone, but I’m using graphene.

This little guy must have amazing depth perception!

What are the steps for reproducing this? I’m not able to see anything like that on 145.0.2 for Android. What version of Firefox are you using?

It’s also worth noting that science can’t prove humans are conscious.

There’s a reason it’s called “the hard problem.”

Thanks! These rules help to keep our community safe and a good source of reliable news. I appreciate your help in making this community better.

Hi, Mod here.

Please check the community rules. Post titles should match the article title. Please edit your post in order to avoid removal.

There were absolutely protests under Obama. Things were bad.

There are bigger protests now under Trump. Things are worse.

Like I said, the math is pretty simple.

Please stop trying to rewrite history.

That only tells a small portion of the story. Here’s the full picture:

Obama also created DACA to protect kids without legal immigration status.

Trump has used ICE to arrest hundreds of US citizens, including government officials. Trump has expanded detention centers and instituted a brutally punitive system, including sending hundreds of people to El Salvador prison. Trump has expanded ICE to a larger force than most nations’ standing armies.

Anyone who thinks that the immigration system is better now than a decade ago must have their fingers in their ears.

Why are you pretending that liberals have not been calling for humane immigration reform for the past 40 years?

There are significantly more protests against ICE now because ICE is significantly worse. It’s basic math.

Yep, I even remember reading that people wanted the Nobel committee to rescind the prize after he launched the murder drone program.

Even Caitlyn Jenner?

TLDR That’s what happens when circles get squished together.

I never heard of this before, but it looks similarly easy to deploy. It requires Javascript instead of Python, which is the same to me although I’m sure others will have a strong preference for one or the other. Pretty nice interface though.

Genuinely curious: What advantage would you have from running it in a docker container?
