  • It always makes me wonder what delicious flavors nature has provided that I’m missing out on. Just like Banana’s in the states, we have a “main” variety of apple which is “Red Delicious” (it’s just a name, not delicious). This abomination is the prettiest picturesque apple you’ve ever seen, but it tastes like cardboard compared to any other apple species. I wish we still had access to all the different varieties of banana’s that used to be around but guess we’ve fucked that one up.

    who’s y’all and what are they trying to convert you too? Are ‘they’ in the room with you right now?

    Glad you aren’t addressing any of the critiques and just gonna continue living the meme. Also, you should learn that there’s a neat little feature called sorting, there’s a controversial selection that’s really handy for shit takes to pop up in the first few comments!

    I’m most definitely looking at the complainers right now to see if they’re actually listening or have just been harping the same shit for a year and now trying to blame everyone else for the problem. We need to flush out this “woe is me” crap, as if people haven’t been wondering for decades how they’re going to be protected or how could democracy possibly survive in such a capitalistic and corrupt system.

    D’s lost, I wanna get back on the field and train with new strategies and directions. There’s just a bunch of butt hurt locker boys who wanna complain about members of the team instead of learning to work together in a different way.

    Oh no, mean spirited comments that don’t actually add anything useful!!

    This you?

    BuT BiDeN nEeDs To EaRn My VoTe!

    If we manage to avoid a fascist takeover, it will be in spite of the naive progressive idealogues who think they have the privilege to vote their conscience.

    It’s… almost as if you do need to earn people’s votes after all. Everyone already spelled everything out to you almost a year ago on changes the Dems could make but still you’re wondering what Step 2 is?!?

    Dems: We’ve tried nothing and are all out of ideas!, Third party, absolutely not!

  • *If you have paid for newer gen and all of your iOS and Mac devices are compatible…

    FTFY, it’s a heavy caveat that makes 80% of their equipment dead unless you give it a second life with a different operating system. I’ve got perfectly decent devices that are bricks in their current original OS unless I get real technical with it. One I can double the ram capacity in it because for some reason apple throttled it’s size but the hardware is designed for more if you just tweak it.

    I wish apple was better about it and the device file transfers was just a staple thing that had since conception. Air transfer is a pain in the ass from past experience and works when it wants to, cloud syncing also works when it wants to even when telling it to update it now. I have a partner who uses apple almost exclusively, it’s so close to being something decent but I can never tell what’s actually going on with a device and there always seems to be some kind of weird hiccup in any process (like 25% of the time, still noticeable from being seamless though).

    (I have frustration from this, I apologize for my rant)





  • Really think your thought process here is gonna get complicated as more people come in. Conflating instances/communities and admin/mods is just really pushing these “groupthink” mentalities, which is just there to distract and argue about (instead of the context of the discussion, much like nationality and race is used!). I just find it extremely weird when people start using “they” and “us” terminology on here, like it’s a server connection address protocol and you’re using it to categorize people into ideologies and personalities/etc. If you start getting a bunch of right-wing hate-mail from proton e-mail addresses, you don’t automatically assume everyone on proton is gonna be right-wing. Probably more weary when that address domain pops into your inbox, but that’s just a learned response from your unique experience (which can lessen with time if you allow it).






  • This whole thread is wild with Lemmy expectations lol. Reddit is a link aggregation site, same as here. Are you wanting more artists and authors posting on here for it to be considered “original”? All the links to articles or sites people are posting…aren’t really considered original. There are plenty of discussions going on that are original, but they tend to be upvoted less than posted link content so you have to usually search them out in the actual community.
