So sad. This was my go to app when I used Android.

Keep. Meta. OUT. They will 100% try to EEE the fediverse.

I always laugh at the term "far left" or "left extremism." Like oh no stop it with all the equality and rights. No no anything but those.

It really is the best place to bee 🐝

Ratings looking good still on iOS.

I'm kind of torn on this. On one hand, yes reddit sucks, but on the other hand it's an extremely search friendly source of information. Does Lemmy even play nice with search engines? The one good thing I can say about a centralized community like reddit is everything is there and easily accessible. Whenever I search for something I need a quick informed answer on I already prefix it with "Reddit."

Before algorithms we all used hashtags. Hashtags were very important to Twitter in the before times. That’s how you find topics on mastodon. I have columns set with specific hashtag sets so I can quickly glance at toots about horror movies, birds, retrogaming, etc…

You can also follow hashtags directly in your home feed just like Twitter topics.

It’s really not a difficult thing at all, but people are so addicted to Twitter they always give a halfassed attempt at switching before throwing up their hands.

I edited the typo in the post but edits suck on federated social media and don’t update on all instances. This is like the 5th I’ve seen this comment.

Mastodon is better anyway. I deleted Twitter ages ago when Musk took over. It's amazing how many people have stayed there despite how much he's shit all over the userbase. He makes Spez look like a saint.

I prefer on screen keyboards now with swipe typing being a standard.

Umm what the actual fuck? Did Florida just lowkey ban all trans people from their state? How is this constitutional? How do you even say someone is trans when they have an updated birth certificate ffs? This is pure insanity.

I stopped reading at >You need to sharpen your reading comprehension skills

No need for insulting others.

It’s a mastodon instance. Calm down.

Eh. I used to be a YouTube junkie but honestly I’ve gone back to live TV, Hulu, Netflix, etc… I’m kinda over the whole YouTube thing.

My mistake. The internet has programmed me to take any reply in context of lgbt to be with hostile intent. ❤️

The biggest issue is normies are stupid. That’s basically the gist.

Screw YouTube and Google. They aren’t getting a dime from me.

I'm not seeing much at all of that currently. A week ago? Sure. Now it's been consolidated to a mega thread.

I'm going to disagree with basically everything you just said. It reads like someone who simply doesn't like Apple. Brand standing if you will.

I wish I had one!!! I wish I had saved all my tech over the years along with all my magazines.

Do they still function?

Jesus H Christ do any of you read the comments? I've seen this reply like 6 times now. I edited the typo but federation and edits are like oil and water.

It’s so beautiful 🤩

Unnecessarily hostile comment. We’re getting closer to a true Reddit replacement!

That looks divine.

I’m so glad I signed up on Beehaw where I can flip my app to local only and makes these dog whistling conservative bigots disappear. It’s wonderful. I also never see any downvotes.

Where is literally anything that makes poutine a poutine?!

You’re talking about Lemmy, right? Sorting by anything but new gives you the same posts for days on end.

Just delete the account a make it on another instance? What’s the issue?

It’s the fediverse version of Instagram. Pixelfed.org.

Everyone always saying “rip Twitter” but y’all never leave, so…

I won’t touch anything with Dorsey’s name attached. Yuck.

Are* and god I hope so. Protections from nazis are precisely why I came to beehaw.

What if I told you we don't need to compete with them?

Leave the google ecosystem. Embrace alternatives like Proton.

It’s not implemented well because it adds it to your account immediately without needing to confirm the code. This means if the user doesn’t know what they’re doing they could add 2FA and not copy the code correctly to their password manager resulting in a lockout.

Trying it now. Thunder is really good but it feels like it’s designed for Android not iOS. Very “material you” feeling.
