as in, actual post originating from people using a lemmy based instance, or all fediverse ActivityPub entrances?

I get that. I'm all for viewing then with suspicion. Rightly and justifiably so. I don't have Facebook or Instagram except for contained osint work. I value privacy and understand it's importance.
But I'm personally not in favour of wildly quarantining every instance that doesn't fully block them before I have had more time to understand the risks and options here. And I think a lot of people here don't do. Not really. In that regard its just classic social media with people stoking each others fears and feasting on it.
And I guess a lot of people are here, fresh from reddits corporate ego trip only to immediately feel the worry of their next digital home inevitably meeting the same fate. I think that fresh trauma is directing a lot of the current discourse here. And I think it would be wise to revisit the subject again when we've settled and understand our new surroundings more.
tl;dr: don't trust facebook, but also don't burn half the street down because they bought a mansion down the lane.
Im not going to deny the threat of Extend/Embrace/Extinguish, but everyone defederating now, and threatening to defederate all other instances that dont do so as well, comes across as an incredible hasty and mostly an emotionally driven decision.
Im very much tried to wait with picking the game up again until the expansion drops in september, but all the news snippets for it got me so excited again that I started it up again already, just trying out the character editor tweeking and finetuning my new V for a fresh 2.0 play in september.
I got the game last year september. I looked forward to it before it released, but decided to hold off on buying since my PC at the time wouldnt suffice. With all the bugs and the release troubles that seemed to turn out right.
When I started playing in september on PS5, I was sold. almost immediately. I normally aint fond of 1st person games. But for CP2077 it works. Real quickly, you really start to feel as V. Youre there, in Night City, living it. Story is cool, side-quests are great and sometimes haunting. Combat has a lot of approaches and variety. The city and narrative are deeply depressing, but in a good way. Because it makes the characters shine. Let yourself be immersed, and this game will get stuck on your soul.
AskWomen felt to me like the kind of place where the mods always set out with clear and understandable intentions, but where the end results became less than the sum of its parts. They wanted to create a safe space and they had all the rights and arguments to do so. And they succeeded. And it became so safe that its practically living as a bubble-boy now.
if we really want useful AI tools they need to be open source and customizable by the user.
Im trying to not touch the game until the expansion, that way I might forget some of the story details and sidequests a bit more and experience it agin when I do a new and fresh replay with the new overhaul of mechanics.
That would be now
My god....I could block the porn gifs at the source. Ha ha! Get less fucked, timeline!
In all meanings of the phrase, in this case apparently.
What exactly are the new designs for? Is it for an app? Or to replace the cool purple kbin folder? I really like the cool purple kbin folder most.
Can someone explain what is up with the constant "rule" thing in titles with people on this instance?
as others said the concept of email is already pretty good. But if you're worried about your data, simplest solution is to stop relying on free email services where you are the product (like google) and start paying for services whose business model is privacy (like proton).
proton offers email, vpn, password manager, file storage, and calendar.
other companies also offer parts of that if you dont want to rely on the same company for all of it.
obsidian offers local, secure, and encrypted sync notekeeping.
For everything you mention there is a company who offers it, and who's business model is providing a good and secure service for a fee, and not "free"(paid by your ad profile).
Im possibly just really cranky from allergies so apologies if Im out of line, but this gives the impression of just wanting free crowdsourced solutions, instead of looking into the viable paid solutions that are already out there.
