Missing History on Fire by daniele bonelli.
I’m on the fence about sticking around. I don’t see myself going back to Reddit, so I’ll probably just leave and be productive.
If anyone can keep this species alive, it’s Rasputin.
Yep, I got downvoted for suggesting that vandalizing the car was not a good plan…
Edit: I think you’re actually talking about a different thread. Lemmy needs therapy.
It absolutely is… And I’m starting to burn out of this place more everyday.
Probably accurate. That seems to have set the trend for who belongs. Of course we’d all want to keep highly objectionable material away, but I’d prefer to see some diversity of thought.
Maybe it’s due to population size, but I’m beginning to feel like Lemmy is a worse echo chamber than Reddit. And yes, I have noticed the landmines and people getting overly downvoted for stating simple opinions.
I’m not so sure this is the place for me anymore. I’ll stick around for now, but I may leave if something else comes along.
Can someone link this thread in that Reddit thread to show how their dissent is thriving here with open dialogue, or will that get removed?
I don’t know, man. I think you could run the fediverse if you put your mind to it.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m onboard with these decentralized platforms. I’m not questioning the value of this federation system, but the potential volatility of parts of it. The concept of an '‘instance’ may be old, but that seems to be a new buzzword, fit for abuse.
It feels like starting a new instance is the trendy thing to do, similar to creating some new crypto shitcoin a few years ago. Of course, nothing is guaranteed, but I would imagine more deeply rooted instances would generally offer more support and be less likely to disappear.
Would a smaller instance not be more likely to have weaker support, or more prone to shutting down and taking you with it?
I don’t entirely disagree. I’d prefer to avoid trauma of any kind. It is often detrimental, but not always. Depending on the type or severity, it can spell doom, or be a point of failure that becomes a lesson.
Always YOLO within reason and limited risk.
Yes, agree. Never YOLO into l’appel du vide.
I’m not suggesting to YOLO off a cliff without any plan. There should always be some forethought and understanding of risk, reward, and luck.
Also, traumatic experience, as awful as it can be, can help us learn and grow. You might not YOLO the same twice if you died the first time.
Rocket League, Halos, Command and Conquers.
Simple suggestions like this are shit advice at the surface, but they often are the answer in the end. You have to dig and find that internal will to realize them.
Easier said than done, though, so maybe take some drugs to just stop worrying.
Quit acting like the average Redditor, and just be civil and disagree.
These Russian characters sure are dramatic. When this is all over I hope we get some good documentaries and movies about this whole special military operation fiasco.
