Hey there! I am a science/technology enthusiast and regular contributor to Wikipedia. Elsewhere you may find me with the @JackFromWisconsin@wikis.world handle.

Hey!

Look at that, all the words that

I just realized FF didn't have a built in translator a week ago. Excited to see it come!

Good stuff! Thanks for all that you guys do for Lemmy and the open internet

It's so refreshing having a statement written by two people, instead of a board of lawyers.

I have never used amazon, much less paid for a subscription service for the pleasure of using it. I was hoping that the author atleast stopped using amazon alltogether. Ah well. Little victories I guess.

It'll drop a little, but to a significantly higher level than it was before.

Sounds like it sorts out the right kind of people? I'm not aware of anyone actually asking you to write an essay, no one would do that. 2 short answer questions does not an essay make.

The issue with bluesky is it creates its own proprietary protocol. Nothing else is compatible with it. Lemmy and Mastodon (and countless others) use the ActivityPub protocol.

Not quite. An upvote on Lemmy is a favorite on mastodon. However, all posts on Lemmy look like they are a "boost" by the community when viewing from mastodon.

Either Kbin or Lemmy would work fine.

That's right. !Gaming@lemmy.ml is different from !Gaming@beehaw.org

Note that you can use your same account to subscribe to both of them, as one may be more active than the other. Feel free to pick one or both it doesn't really matter. Different websites/servers have slightly different rules and different culture, so the posts and comments will be slightly different community to community.

I know they had a word block list but I'm unsure if it's still around.

https://midwest.social can't beat the great lakes.

I don't go out of my way to get news, so social media/Lemmy. Except for local news, which I do follow more closely. But that's it.

I just now realized I got Voyager and Lemmy versions confused. You are right about 0.20 being the most recent voyager version.

0.18.2 is the most recent version...

We don't.

Oh. That's unfortunate. Why do they need cloud flare again? Are there other instances of Kbin?

I got by for a long time using a YouTube playlist and Vanced. Might want to look into YouTube Revanced, it's a patch for the YT app that deletes ads and adds some extra features.

While we're at it, ban SUVs and Light Trucks, by making a separate licence for them. If you need one for work? Or for personal use? Get a license that proves you know how to use one.

SUVs and Light trucks have done so much damage to our society: both by being dangerous as fuck, and in the insane amounts of pollution that emit. It's about time the United States, and any other country that hasn't yet, apply bandage to the wound. Slow the bleeding. Then the healing can begin.

Doing good! Really happy with where I'm at in life currently.
