There was no US destabilising Ukraine, there was no coup, those are taken right from the Kremlin book of propaganda.

There were civil society protests in Ukraine in 2014 to oppose government’s withdrawal from EU talks. Ukrainian government, then backed by Russia, used brutal force against civilians while Russia “secretly” and illegally annexed Crimea (as always with them, firstly not acknowledging anything, using so called little green men, russian soldiers without proper markings, who later got medals for it).

At he same time, Russia invaded Donbas, again “secretly”, talking about “civil war”, but it was no civil war. The so called separatists were controlled by Moscow, supplied heavy weapons and even commanders by Moscow.

Eight years later, they invaded massively and openly, bz make no mistake, Russia’s attempt to destroy and landgrab Ukraine lasts way longer than that.

Highlight to my trip to Japan if I may exaggerate a bit :D Incredible comfort, heated seats, sounds of nature if you like… Can’t believe they’re not more prominent outside of Japan.

Look at their activity, if cannot determin which is the most likely to survive, I sub them all and wait.

I’d love to have something resembling old.reddit, especially in regards to width of text on the site. While Lemmy looks good enough and is reasonably easy to navigate, I really cherish old.reddit usage of available space.

If anyone knows if something like that is possible, hit me!

Thanks a lot, you’re too kind!

I’ve not been lazy and been looking myself. For anyone interested, this one seems to be the most active. If anyone finds a better one, let me know. Or lemmy know? What’s the pun code around these parts…?

Tried Mastodon after Twitter fiasco, seemed like an okay experience, but in the end, it lacked what’s most important about any such site: the people. A lot of people I followed on Twitter just didn’t make the transition (some did), so after a while of not really seeing content I was used to see, I drifted away.

To be honest, I can imagine Lemmy could follow the same pattern (for me, personally, not in general). Even though it’s off to a good start after I already found /r/patientgamers alternative here. Now I would love some equivalent of /r/soccer and I think I could make Lemmy my new home.
