The “guy standing in the driveway” just outed a woman to authorities for trying to get an abortion.

We already know he is a bad actor.

“Wait and see” is bullshit.

Facebook/Meta is THE largest social network and one of the oldest active ones.

We’ve seen it all.

There’s no reason to wait.

Defederate.

I’m deleting my .world accounts now and moving to .ml.

I think I’m just going to wipe my account and ditch altogether.

There is absolutely no valid reason Lemmy should have any association with Meta, no matter how vague or distant.

I’m out.

@lwadmin@lemmy.world

If Lemmy.world federates with Meta/Threads, I will delete my accounts and ditch Lemmy altogether.

It’s shameful that this is even up for discussion.

What an embarrassment.

How do I switch any existing username? Is that possible?

No, sorry.

We know exactly what Zuckerbag is all about.

Not a chance.

I’ll hop right the fuck off Lemmy in a heartbeat.

Impeccable username.

The people who negotiate your medical claims make more money on the settlement commissions than the doctors even make from their procedures.

And there’s like 25-40 people total who handle the claims for every single health insurance company.

Zero sympathy for anyone who lost their money on NFTs or BitCoin.

OceanGate submersible level stupidity anyone should’ve seen coming.

I’m not sure how you can see it any other way.

They had a successful platform (Instagram) and piggybacked a new platform on top and are counting the users toward their numbers.

If Zuckerbag released Threads without being tied to Instagram, it’d be a queef in the wind of a userbase.

It’s a clever strategy. For sure. I won’t pretend it’s not.

But seeing how “Notes” went - I don’t think it’s gonna go very far.

It’s like if McDonald’s started selling hotdogs from their stores under a separate store within their restaurants.

“McDog’s has over 1 billion served!”

No, McDonald’s does - you just put another product under the same roof by a different name.

Why?

Because Instagram did the same BS with their “Notes” feature recently and now nobody uses it.

You were automatically enrolled and it showed up on your feed and three months later, it’s crickets.

As much as I hate Twitter, I don’t think Threads is going to make a dent in the long run.

I fucking KNEW it.

35 million users my asshole - they’re just counting existing Instagram accounts.

I’m using the WefWef app.

Awhile back they were like $50-$60 and me and Artie were playing with any XHP70 hosts we could find.

I made a K1 XHP70.3 sliced and loooved the beam but the form factor of the K1 is just too big for me.

So when Artie showed me the L35, it was like “woah - same performance but way smaller - gimme that!”

I love that it has a side button for normal use and a tailswitch that’s instant turbo.

I use this to scare off whippersnappers if they appear to be considering “creating street art” near our property.

It’s also my “if the dog ever goes missing” search light.

One of them Tim Apple phones

Okay - this has happened multiple times now:

The photo was correctly rotated in my camera roll but came out sideways upon uploading.

Any way to fix this for future posts?

Spicy3D is here! Heck yeah!

Jon Slider’s home again :)

Good to see you here, buddy.

So far, I’ve never had a problem pushing the SST-20 Deep Reds. Same with the white ones too. They hold up quite well!

3 more months of rioting.
