Having to choose a server before you know what that means or the differences between the slightly different versions of federated networks makes it more confusing.

Yes, “it doesn’t matter which server you choose,” because you can see the posts from anywhere, in theory.  Except, it also kind of does matter. Places defederate from each other. If you pick a smaller instance, it may suddenly just go down and then you’re back at the start again.

Honestly, I’ve made… 5? 6? different versions of me on different instances. Kbin went down, didn’t get into Mastodon, lemm.ee went down, didn’t like Mbin as much as Kbin, tried fedia.io sort of liked it, ended up largely on piefed.social, but also like being on sopuli.xyz because it’s defederated from less and has more global content.

It’s confusing and niche. I honestly really love it even when I kind of hate it. I end up ahead of the curve in a lot of tech news because of the hardcore enthusiasts on here.

This is the stupid shit I get instead of actual public transport and infrastructure. What a dumb timeline.

Make a livable world and people will want to live in it.

Of course not. He’s a worthless hollow shell of a person with no real beliefs of his own and his corporate masters want this.

He should be thrown out of leadership.

Yeah, this was clear to anyone with any grasp of history or politics.

Dude, I wish. I’m not cool enough for that.

I’m stanning LMDE currently.

I’m glad they are adding all this stuff.

It finally got me to switch to Linux.

I expect it to be full of only Democrat names and lots of places where Trump’s name was hastily redacted, as well as other powerful right wing figures.

This is it, really. I used to upgrade every year or two and flash the latest and greatest ROM to be on the bleeding edge.

Now, none of that really seems like a huge difference anymore other than GrapheneOS for privacy and security.

It’s just incremental improvements and none of the reparability I want, so I wait until it’s really necessary to upgrade now.

He’s a narcissist and is easily charmed.

He sees Mamdani as a “winner” and therefore feels compelled to cosy up to him to enlarge his own ego.

Honestly, I assume us Americans are selling them directly into slavery, but I wouldn’t be surprised if what you described is the case.

It is human trafficking.

They keep saying deport, but it’s human trafficking.

Stop churning out garbage movies and charging exorbitant prices for a shitty movie going experience.

Problem solved.
