Though i agree it could be fun at first, conspiracies are legit dangerous. People are so desperate for meaning, 17% of Americans believe the government is lead by a kabaal of satanic lizard people eating babies and shit like that.
My mom is deep into the rabbit hole of nonsense, and it genuinely consumes her. Nearly all her friends abandoned her, she almost lost her job, and that’s only reinforcing these convictions. If something like January 6th was happening in my country, I bet you, she’d be there. The time conspiracies were harmless fun are gone. They ruin people’s lives.

I’ve seen the vlc addon that can play torrents but doesn’t that kill them? You’re not seeding anything by just streaming and leaving when the movie is over. Idk, seems like a shitty thing to do

Not quite true. I have a cheapo Doogee and there is 0 bloat. Super happy with the little brick.

Depends on company. I know from experience Samsung and Xiaomi are obnoxious with ads and unwanted software so I just avoid their stuff.

interesting. But that seems to rely on Chrome, which I’ve removed. I’m using Duckduckgo as main browser instead. So I just fireproof the login, bookmark and I’m good. Thanks for the explanation, though.

edit: there seems to be a sandboxed webapps browser on f-droid

install … a website? is that a thing?

Gotta say, the website works great on phone too. No reason to get an app

still don’t want zucc to win, tho

Did the admin say anything or just pulled the plug and vanished?

Time sure flies when you’re having fun!

My favourite is “you only need better lock than your neighbour”

Lemm.ee is omnipresent

Yup, like Elle said, you can request a community be made on another instance so you don’t need to make a separate account

Pull the plug. Unless you’re on laptop, in that case you gotta wait a few hours.

I’m sating it because for example mastodon doesn’t do even that. Afaik, it only sorts chronologically.

You don’t need to make account on other instances. The whole point of fediverse is that the instances are all interconnected. You can talk to people from anywhere and post anywhere too, and it will propagate to all the other instances. Like your account is on programming.dev, this post is hosted on lemmy.world, and I’m on lemm.ee, see? It’s all interwoven together, that’s the main strength of it. So you can have communities (sub alternatives) all over. Some will be doubled (like most instances have Main) but you can always see where it’s hosted to know which is which. (sorry if I’m over-explaining it)

That means if you want to make a community about, for example, 6502 assembly, you make it where you are, and people who are interested in the topic will come and discuss, no matter where their accounts are hosted. It would make sense to have a 6502 assembly community on programming-focused instance but it’s not mandatory. If I were to make a 6502 assembly community, I’d make an account on programming.dev and create the community there for consistency. And give my main account mod status.
I don’t know if this is the “right” way to go about it but it makes sense to me. I’m happy to be corrected.

Note that beehaw defederated from lemmy.world and shitjustworks. Here’s a post talking about it.

Nope, you can sort by Hot/Top/Active, and also by time.

There is, though. See how you can sort posts and comments by Hot/Top/Active? That’s an algorithm sorting things based on engagement over time. It’s just not tailored to your personal history of engagement.

Note that only works if the person argues in good faith. If they’re not, you’re just wasting your time.
