Twitter has always been garbage but now it’s way worse than ever before

You don’t believe in the supernatural but people claiming it exists are not lying? These are contradictory ideas.

You were rude to me once but the reason I say your name is disgusting and weird is because that’s true. I think people who do this stupid redditty annoying thing of trying to invent the weirdest name possible should be shamed.

No thanks I blocked it after seeing it constantly with absolutely zero understanding of the content

Who let you off of parler? Or was it TrUtH sOcIaL?

Your username is disgusting and bizarre

Loads fine

You say that like it’s a bad thing. If you’d like more fascism or mindless idiocy no one’s keeping you here

TIL we need convincing about that on Lemmy

TIL lemmy mods are “sensitive”.

I’m so intrigued by how often people complain about foss and Linux on lemmy. Everything about Lemmy appeals to people who are really into both and as someone else pointed out those leanings and the other main complaint, leftist politics, are all insanely tied together and all should be very much expected on Lemmy.

It sounds like the real complaint is that it’s different.

Because yeah it’s certainly not more toxic. That’s laughable. My interactions here have been overwhelmingly better than on reddit.

And the other complaints boil down to “it’s small and new, yuck”… Yeah that’s a good thing usually. There have been terrible attacks with CSAM but people are handling it and luckily I’ve never seen a single image like that. On reddit it was not uncommon to see mutilated humans without wanting to even though there was far more time and resources available to prevent that

I don’t know why suddenly the bar for comparison is the world generally decades ago. We were comparing countries. My point stands, most European countries have higher smoking rates than in the US. Even if there are a few exceptions.

Not sure where you’re comparing to but compared to the US the difference is stark. I expect to see the occasional smoker on your average US city block, but in Europe it feels like I cannot go outside any building without the doors being surrounded by smokers. Anecdotally my experience is very different to yours and also this map indicates my experience is not isolated. Compared to the US just about all the European countries have a higher density of smokers https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco_consumption_by_country

I will say that in the rural US the smoking rate “feels” higher than even the European countries I’ve visited. Maybe you’re from the rural US? It feels like the rate in US cities is extremely lower than in the rural south

Get laid

You went and counted the words. That says more than I could

You’re missing the point for pedantry. Call it what you want, lemmy is a helluva lot different than Facebook in many ways and we all know this.

Your friend was right

You just confirmed what I said. “One of the safest”

And yeah you wrote way more shit than you should ever expect people to read. Maybe abstain from writing 10,000 words ever but especially if you’re wrong
