I’m using both.

I installed NoScript just a few days ago, because I’m forced to use a really weak computer that struggles to even browse the modern web. I feel like NoScript improved it a lot, and while quite a few websites broke (including lemmy) (but most will still display the content), I just set the ones that I need working to trusted, but the performance is still good (I should note I’m also using it in conjunction with an automatic tab discarter).

I however also don’t directly use Google. Both SearX and Yandex don’t need javascript, so I’m unaffected by these news, despite being a bit mad about it as a reflection of the direction the web is going as a whole.

I think a prime example of hexbear wholesomeness is their trans megathreads: https://hexbear.net/post/3363552

They even have a community to help each other out: !mutual_aid@hexbear.net

I do see Lemmy.world running into issues in the future

I think lemmy.world is already pretty bad. To get away from their posts and comments I’ve considered joining hexbear, since you people honestly have the best content and most wholesome community and aren’t federated with .world, but I also don’t want to be completely isolated from the rest of the fediverse. However, I just noticed there are only 5 instances in hexbear’s blocked instance list and plenty in the linked list. Maybe I didn’t notice how all other instances started federating with hexbear again?

I don’t know what the “allowed” instance list means though.

How long is their lifespan usually?

It goes beyond just showing what part of day you are in. Everything is reduced to angles. You don’t have to do any math with numbers, just look how much the pointer has to move to see how much time is left until an event you are interested in, and you get to visually compare that angle with the entire half of a day to get an even better perception of the passage of time.

I used to have one, but now I set my phone clock to be displayed as an analogue clock so that kind of made it obsolete, since it now has all the benefits of an analogue display with the additional advantage of automatically syncing time and adjusting for time zones and daylight saving time.

Being able to know exactly the time in a moment’s glance seems better to me.

That seems more like a pro for analogue to me. It’s much easier with an analogue clock since you get a visual presentation of time. Whenever someone tells me a time, I have to first imagine an analogue clock to understand what that time means.

It’s a shame the web got so complex that it has become unfeasible to make a browser engine anywhere near full compliance for anyone that isn’t a large company.

I think it’s more in the sense that lemmy.world users have the most redditor-like behaviour. I have started considering moving to an instance that isn’t federated with lemmy.world.

Thanks for the warning.

I thought Mordor is part of it?

In other videos you can also see him being dragged off by bystanders in the end.

No, I’m not appealing to that. Fuck nazis. (I don’t actually see how my comment could be interpreted as that since my comment was in response to users complaining about having their content removed from other instances or communities, which if anything would make them the free speechers (I’m not saying that they are))

Lemmy, in contrast to centralized platforms doesn’t force you to be restricted to the rulings of a single group of people under threat of being barred from using the entire platform.

My point is, when you are talking on another instance, you are a guest there and it is completely expected for them to kick you out if you don’t abide by their house rules or if they don’t want you there anymore for whatever reason. While it doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be criticized for it, the impression I got from the comments on this post is that they think it is some kind attack to a basic human right to remove their comments from a foreign instance and that admins should allow all content your instance allows.

The same can be said about the reactions people from other instances display towards news of some instance defederating from the instance they are on.

I want to remind everyone in here that Lemmy is self-hosted and federated. If you want to make your post visible on their server or community, you have to abide by the rules they set even if they or their enforcement may seem arbitrary or stupid. It’s their server/community you want to put your stuff on and they do not have a duty to accept it. Lemmy allows you to block those communities or instances or even to create or host your own.

The rules are generally on the sidebar of the community or instance (depending on if you want to know the rules of the community or instance).

if you look hard enough

I think I have seen as many VGA cables as I did HDMI ones. I also have seen many people using adapters for the two standards. So I think they are still very common.

What movie is the second image from?

Never saw that one used to hit people with.
