🙄 The day lemmygrad gets defederated from this instance can’t come soon enough.

Agreed, Shazam 2 was garbo.

Henry Cuellar’s success in his district in the deep south of Texas isn’t indicative of anything at all on a national level.

Agreed. It’s just two billionaires desperate for attention. The only thing that could possibly be more pathetic than this is the literal slapfight that would take place.

My favorite part was when the Firefox Mozilla’d all over the internet.

I’m suspicious of any tech writer that can’t get a feel for a platform in seven days, big ole scary/confusing federated servers or not, lemmy just isn’t nearly as confusing as some people want to make it out to be. Particularly if you’ve ever actually used reddit before. Frankly, after reading this article I’m not convinced he understands either platform in any meaningful way.

Lol he’s terrified.

This makes distinguishing between nested comments much easier IMO. That’s been my biggest gripe with the default UI so major thanks to the dev!

Vin Diesel as Jeff Bezos
Setting: Jeff Bezos’ penis rocket

Clowns. There’s nothing but buffoonery coming from this McCarthy led House and it’s exhausting.

Awesome. I hope they get him and his cronies on RICO charges and everyone involved in this brazen attempt to overturn an election to install a fascist dictator winds up in prison.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching him melt down over all these indictments. It’s just like, what did you expect dude? If you don’t want to be indicted every other week you should stop committing crimes. It’s super easy. Look at me, I’m not committing crimes as we speak! It’s effortless!

Yeah pretty much, they might as well say “we’ve decided to sack Jerry from the Social Media team” because this isn’t actually exiting twitter it’s more like reducing someone’s workload lol.

I hadn’t heard about it either but according to their blog post announcing it, it’s https://social.bbc

Apparently they’ll be running it for six months and then determining if it’s worth continuing to operate.

There will only be four remaining official ABC accounts: for news, sport, Chinese and the master ABC Australia account.

Somebody let me know when they actually leave twitter. This is a bullshit half measure.

This makes me feel pretty good about my decision to choose lemmy.world as my first instance. There is zero reason to believe Hexbear users will engage in good faith, in fact, the evidence presented in this statement clearly illustrates that they intend to troll and generally derail discussions. Preemptive defederation in this case is the prudent move. Keep up the good work, Admins.

Did Marjorie Taylor Greene once again call for “decorum”?

To be fair MTG can only recall about a dozen words at any given time and when she learns a new one it forces an old word out.

Service issues and downtime were pretty regular issues at the beginning though just as they are now on Lemmy.

Yep, unscheduled service interruptions and planned downtime were a fact of life on reddit for years. I can still remember when the reddit admins always announced downtime before swapping out the hamster powering their server.

Actually, I’d say when reddit stopped announcing downtime that’s when things started to noticeably change. Admins stopped even trying to pretend to be redditors themselves and their comms became a lot less casual and authentic.

This is a barely-disguised ad.

Uhh it’s not disguised at all it’s literally from the official Paramount Pictures YouTube channel.
