I’m in.

I already have a bunch of communities I post to daily to try to help grow the fediverse. I could join the effort to boost more.

If only. Kinder Surprise toys used to be good, they needed actual instructions to put together. Sometimes they were weapons, intentionally or not. Now you get a Kinder egg and open it up to find just some guy. Not building, no exploration, no pain, just a little plastic guy. This is what’s wrong with this generation.

They straight up say that in the article:

“Mangione attempted to send a public message through violence, but the message that emerges today is very different,” McDonald said. “Violence is not a legitimate instrument to promote any political or social message, and those who resort to violence in an effort to advance their beliefs will be prosecuted.”

He didn’t take a plea deal.

“While the defendant pled guilty, our office does not have a plea agreement with him,” the U.S. attorney said. “There are no accommodations or concessions, and we are free to seek the maximum penalty under the law.”

I’m a atheist, raised catholic.

I agree religion is a bullshit method of control. But — Repenting isn’t so easy, it’s not only saying you’re sorry for everything. You’ve gotta repent so hard you feel it in your soul, like it’s gotta be physically and spiritually painful. You have to make God Himself believe you. And you have to be willing to accept any just punishment in return.

Fair enough.

To be fair the instance drama was unusually exciting in the fallout of the ban list.

But anyway. I got my ideal experience by joining .today, which doesn’t block any instances, and only browsing my subscribed. It only took about an hour to get a solid list built up, one that I add to when I see things recommended or in the community promo groups. The front page of my feed is usually memes, comics, art and tech news.

Be the change you want to see.

For now you could post to !Art_Alchemist_Guild@lemmy.today which has a little bit of everything. I’d love to check out your projects.

Thank you. The additional details are mostly about the structure and engineering as opposed to opinion, I’d trust it. Very cool to see sustainable fusion energy in my lifetime.

Not a lot of info in there but at least it’s free.

I used tesh very rarely, only to ban users across all my communities and only in extreme cases, until recently when it just stopped working for me. Now I know why.

The communities aren’t far left or right, one is just general news that’s about 50% science articles and the other is for independent Canadian news. This kind of censorship is as infuriating as it is bizarre.

I try to run discussions and challenges in some of my communities, the problems are just me getting busy and general forgetfulness.

The womens stuff community does a great job of keeping people engaged with daily topics and weekly chat threads, which other communities could take notes from.

Beyond that, better mod tools, public calendars to schedule events and puzzles would be great for larger communities.

Personally, I think Lemmy needs more ‘best of’ posts, or maybe just awareness of the best-of communities, to encourage engagement and showcase the community.

No one’s allowed to have a gender identity, got it.
