don’t forget the Penisgate.


I hate everything about the “typing” and “left on read” chat culture. I usually need a moment to gather my thoughts, and when someone points out “ooooh you’ve been typing forever” it immediately makes me want to not continue the exchange anymore. just go back to scrolling brainrot, I’ll be done when I’ll be done.


another set of forum-like software that can interoperate with Lemmy (and the rest of the Fediverse), but with a bit different set of features and look. I’m sending this comment from my Piefed account.


as well as some that I did
and it’s used to manage pulmonary hypertension in infants.
except for the pedestrian crossing morphing into the lane and the horrible airbrushing of everything, and straightening the tires so it doesn’t look like it’s turning properly

ah yes, LIUCONN, a famous bus maker dthat exists.


personally, I’m wary of totally-not-Russian companies operating from Cyprus.

blocks all ads device-wide for free. the “base” profile should be good enough for most people. note: while this is provided by Mullvad, a trusted VPN company, the solution above is NOT a VPN.
I don’t even think AI was involved, probably compression + someone increasing contrast before uploading it to their Instagram @funnymemeslol page to make it POP
but it doesn’t POP on the social media feed you have to make it POP


very helpful, thanks

you don’t read every article when visiting the website either, do you? so you’re already doing the sorting.
no one’s forcing you to read all of them, either set a short expiry time for the feed so the unread ones get deleted after a day or week or whatever, or mark them as read so that they disappear and move on. some readers allow you to set filters to e.g. ignore articles with certain keywords in the headlines, if you’re feeling a bit extra.


the catch is that lots of the stuff on the internet is now centralised on big platforms that try as hard as they can to steer you into their apps, so that you consume the content the way they want you to rather than the way you personally find convenient. what used to be blogs and small hobby websites has become Facebook fan pages or Instagram accounts, and while both Facebook and Instagram used to offer RSS feeds for public accounts at some point, it hasn’t been the case anymore for a decade or so. there are workarounds that let you get RSS for some pages that don’t offer it, but not for all of them and they vary in difficulty from “put the name of the account you want to follow and generate a special feed address with one click” through “pay a small monthy subscription for a company to generate a feed for you”, to “self-host some software that manages the feed”, and all of those can break at some point. still, for me personally there’s enough stuff that offers the feeds that are ready easy enough to access to make it worth my time.


nope, I use the official https://www.404media.co/rss/ link. sometimes it pulls the entire article even though I’m on a free tier, and sometimes it doesn’t and I just open it in the browser instead.

it’s like podcasts, but for websites. you add websites that you want to follow and get notified when a new post or article appears.
