Younger folks have been raised on apps and other polished devices with oodles of effort put into UX design.

Older folks grew up learning DOS commands, memorizing the IRQ of their sound card, and other clunky shenanigans.

In their current state Lemmy, Mastodon and other services are too complicated for most young folks to bother with. Not all, but most, especially the filthy casuals.

With what money, Elon? You can't afford to pay Google or office rent but you're going to pay Mr. Beast?

"I'm sorry (this got out)."

Pass the joint, bud.

Pizza Peacemaker. If you're with a bunch of people with varying tastes and want to order pizza, you open the app and pass your phone around. Each person in turn puts in what they like and how much they want to eat. At the end the app tells you what you should order and how you should split the bill.

I guess that's just a factor of this being a non profit thing. A user-built social media platform doesn't have to do everything it can to retain user eyeballs for as many seconds a day as possible.

That's such a classic, perfect joke.

"Sorry, we'll come back later when you're feeling better."

"Do as we say or we won’t let you do free work us any more!"

Of course, that's what estrogen does.

I remember being younger than Bart. Now I'm older than Homer. Next stop: Abe.

Elon Musk will be a lot poorer five years from now, and that makes me happy.

Maybe they've just got an ugly baby.

Nature is so beautiful.

Somehow they'll find a way to pay artists even less.

I think a better idea to populate this page with content AND encourage discussion would be a "Best Of" style community. Don't just blindly copy everything over, but curate the best and encourage discussion around those.

Of course that would take work and I'm not doing that.

Every accusation is a confession.

I'm not into that but if that's what my friends want I'll enjoy it.

This sounds like the start of a prophecy.

I remember going to a video game museum in Berlin and seeing Game Boys behind glass. (Insert Saving Private Ryan Matt Damon getting old gif here)

As a Canadian you should be more concerned with muskeg.

I had one ring for about ten years and I don't think it was ever noticeable through a t-shirt unless I pointed it out.

Yeah, I had the same problem. Felt like it never fully healed.

Ew no. They're going to taste like silicone and suncreen I bet.

Fun fact: the standard qwerty layout was made to slow typewriter typing down by putting common keys off the home row and apart from each other. This was done to prevent the little key arm thingies from colliding and jamming when typing quickly.

EDIT: Apparently this is not a fact
