I work at a pet store. I monitor anyone that looks between 12 and 18 closely. If I don't, without fail they're always the ones swatting at our animals for a laugh. Why, by Neptune's briny piss, would I treat them with the respect that 9/10 times they don't show to anyone else?

With a drink and a lingering sense of dread?
Careful not to cut yourself on that edge, bud
I can't fathom the mind of someone that cares that much about how someone else gets around...
If you could that would help give me a place to start. My worry is how fast the content pool might shrink, can you DM me the worst offenders? The main thing that bugs me is the frequent calls for political violence from people I’m not sure have ever touched grass.
I typically browse All as Lemmy is pretty small and content feels limited. What surprised me the most was how often I see casual calls for violence and mass murder. Though as you mentioned, blocking political subs would probably help.
I'm guessing that filtering helps make it nicer, I see way more nasty and extreme shit on Lemmy than I ever did on Reddit. I want to like Lemmy, but I can't recommend it to anyone I know because of how toxic the base experience has been.
May I ask what you filtered out to make it seem like "the people are much nicer" on a day to day basis? Genuine question, not sarcasm.
This has literally always been the case with Steam, the only difference is that people are told up front now. Things will likely continue to operate exactly the same as it has until now, I doubt Valve wants to disrupt the giant money train they have.
Element X is still missing a lot of features, "ready" is an exaggeration I feel
No Spaces support in particular is a dealbreaker for me
Needs more JPEG.
You know, maybe casually advocating for the torture and/or deaths of millions of people might be the sign that you need to go touch some grass.
Like, seriously... do you even register what you sound like?
You joke, but depending on the area transit can range from really good to REALLY bad.
Things have gotten really shitty in my city (Calgary, Alberta), my friend takes transit so I hear the horror stories. Homeless people openly doing drugs, screaming at people walking by, sometimes ODing and dying. I've had to leave work to pick up my friend after a homeless guy tried to grab her and was following her with two of his buddies until she went into a restaurant to call me.
The last time I had to take transit on my own they hadn't cleaned the blood off the wall from the stabbing a couple weeks prior (2023 had a transit stabbing every few weeks).
I seriously wish I was making this up as it's been cartoonishly awful the last couple of years.
