Yeah, decentralisation has a lot of downsides. It’s definitely a barrier to entry for new folk. But at the same time, it has the single most important killer feature available, and that is that it’s can’t be controlled by a single profit driven corporation.

We’ve got instance level disabling of downvotes on lemmy and piefed.

Decentralisation.

I will never use any other kind of social media again.

Our setup uses a domain pointed at a dynamic (but stable) IP with a script to update it periodically

Assuming I knew that my behaviour was being modelled and this model would influence the outcome, I’d remove myself from the decision making process and flip a coin.

They do, but only by passively monitoring RSS feeds for new content that exceeds your current quality. They don’t do active upgrade searches unless you manually trigger them.

The distinction is important if you imported some or all of your media library, rather than building it from scratch with the arr stack stuff. It also matters if you source some your content via providers that don’t have RSS feeds.

!femboy@lemmy.blahaj.zone might be an option?

Yep. Thus demonstrating the stereotype :)

Hazel has to have brown in the mix somewhere though

The test is, are you punching down? That is to say, are you, from a position of privilege, ridiculing someone that lacks your privilege? If not, you’re ok.

That we’re all descended from convicts (though I am)

Comprehensible input will be useful for both of you, but particularly for your wife if she already has some Spanish. Dreaming Spanish is what I’ve been using, but there’s also plenty of comprehensible input channels on YouTube.

How about an article like

“Clickbait Headlines You Should Not Use Anymore”

No no no. That won’t work with btrfs snapshots if you’ve had a kernel upgrade. Choose grub from those two

I will say, if you’re a newbie, then btrfs has one big benefit, especially when combined with Grub or Limine as your boot loader, and that is the ability to just roll back to a previous snapshot when something breaks.

Playing with things and breaking things as you learn is a lot less of a hassle when you can simply roll back your system to where it was yesterday, instead of having to re-install it from scratch

These days there isn’t really any reason to avoid btrfs. It’s stable, and has a lot of nice features.

Women face inequality across society.

Men only groups foster and grow that inequality.

Women only groups give women a chance to get away from the bullshit at least sometimes.

If and when we solve inequality, then we can come back and talk about whether gendered groups still have a place.

You know trans people exist right?

Dawkins has been openly racist and islamophobic (not simply “outspoken atheist”, but explicitly islamophobic) for a very long time now. Being transphobic is part of that package :\
