I joined the WGA in 1986 and have been through several strikes with them. We made gains in all of them, but some issues are more important than others… and this year’s strike is the most important of my lifetime.

There are differences between upstairs and downstairs footsteps! Who knew? Footsteps below you are lower in pitch.

This is the best comment I've read in my short (but not miniscule) time on Lemmy. Thank you for inspiring me.

Well, it's useful to have local communities, but I personally find it nice to still be able to join, read, and post from another instance without having to make another account. For instance, I'm subscribed to lemmy.world's "local" community, which is where I found out about old.lemmy.world and mlmym.org. Likewise, if I lived in a geographic locality like Seattle, I might want to join a Seattle community on a Seattle instance, but I'd still prefer to be able to do it using an account from another instance rather than being forced to make an account on the Seattle instance.

I'm currently logged in to my feddit.UK account via https://mlmym.org/feddit.uk.

It's a little weird entering my password into this other website, but I decided that a person who codes old.lemmy is probably trustworthy...(?) Anyway, that's one option for you.

Obviously it would be better if it were implemented locally at feddit.uk.

We need discourse. News sites are largely owned by rich men and corporations.
