The far-right brings messages of hate, violence, intolerance, and attempts to pass legislation to justify their views. The far-left has brought us the weekend, the 40 hour work week, child labor laws, etc…

I just took a peek at that user’s profile. Saw what magazines they moderate. Not surprised we have a different point of view.

There has been quite a surge of sports on the ‘net as of lately. I do wonder why that is?

So uhhh… if we all just don’t pay…. They can’t come after all of us, right?

Alright you caught me in a good mood, so I’ll throw some articles out here to explain my line of thinking. I hope you’ll see I’m not arguing with strawmen.

Article from October of last year describing right wing outrage to drag shows.

Fast forward to recent months and it appears that words have turned to action, in the form of legislation

I believe some else mentioned the Paradox of Tolerance, but I will link it again just in case you missed it.

I hope this clears up my line of thinking. No invisible boogymen here - just some examples of,
In my opinion, things changing for the worst. And if you were not arguing in good faith… oh well.

As long as you don’t forget about our 5% military discount. I need my Big Pink. It’s the only gum with the breath-freshening power of ham.

Could not tell you how many hours my brother and I spent taking turns playing Wacky Wheels

I loved the time-travel level in Titan Fall 2. I don’t play a lot of games so it definitely felt very unique.

Ok you got me there.

At about 20 hours in I remember thinking, “hmmm this map isn’t too awfully large. I handled BOTW no problem.” But my god the map is deceptive of the sheer size and “hidden” regions.

60+ hours in now and I think maybe 16% of all achievements? Wild.

And here I am thinking Beehaw was a play on ‘yeehaw’… yikes

What is meant by:

In a Threads post, Zuckerberg took a light jab at Twitter while optimistically predicting that Threads could become the first online public square that attracts a billion users

Doesn’t Facebook already have more than 1 billion users?

@Zana

Sorry not sure I understand. Let me try another example and maybe that will solidify it.

I’d like to join this community: https://imgur.com/a/lJX8b7u

When I search @asklemmy in kbin.social is see this: https://imgur.com/a/oeDPZ8i

I tried modifying the link you previously posted to show as : https://kbin.social/m/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Which shows as : https://imgur.com/a/ysUutXx

But this community has far fewer subscriber and comments than the “original” Lemmy community, as seen here: https://imgur.com/a/givdaoE

So I am just trying to figure out… why? And how can I fix this? And how can I iron out the process? Thanks in advance!

@Lifecoach5000 As far as I can tell, kbin does work in a similar fashion. However, I am not sure if I am coming across two unique communities, depending on how I reach them (kbin search vs. Google search). Or if the discrepancy is because we are still in the infant stages of fediverse and not everything is going to mesh together 100% (e.g. some subscriber / comment totals might be off because they are not fully synced between instances yet?)

I think my biggest issue is using the kbin website (or PWA) and being able to search for a different ActivityPub-affiliated website, but stay within the kbin instance, so I can subscribe.

I have a post above with some screenshots to explain my question, here’s a link : https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/p/609057/-/reply/1082038

That seems like it will present a problem. If an uninformed redditor asks, “hey is it safe to move this wire?” And some troll replies, “yes”… with no one there who is knowledgeable to moderate. Might lead to some disastrous outcomes.

*edit - I agree with you forcing the admin’s hands. Im not sure they know what they will be getting themselves into.

@vonck

Well that would makes sense then, good to know. There are a lot of moving parts haha

Right on. Sure the interiors might show their age. But for a car that’s pushing 30 years old, it is still incredibly sharp.

@Otome-chan@kbin.social

that makes sense, thank you. Now, I’m starting to understand “instances” are like servers. I’ve picked kbin.social to start. Are we free, as users, to create as many Magazines as we’d like? Or does that put too much stress on the smaller server?

For instance, I saw that kbin.social had a ‘sports’ magazine, but not one for golf specifically. So I created one. Was that correct, or should I have found an instance of kbin that caters to sports?

One million vs. One? I like those odds...

Lights out and away we go!

One thing I suggest is:
You're trying to get something working but it isn't going anywhere? Try again later.
First, because of the obvious calming down, since stress can affect the person's capacity to solve problems.

Amazing how many situations in which this can be applied!
