Bezos, a rich white billionaire who owns WP, donated money to Trump, also a rich white billionaire.

Now WP supports Trump. What a coincidence.

Tell me republicans, what California policies have the evil democrats done to cause the fires or made it worse?

I have bazzite on my laptop since I was too lazy to set up arch, fedora, debian, etc for gaming. It’s ready to play installed with steam and everything.

Well Mastadon is good for screaming into the void and hope someone shouts back. Lemmy is kind of like a forum type community where you already know someone is going to like your topic if it’s in the right sub.

It’s kind of true. I don’t think it’s necessarily that there is a culture of mediocrity but that other foreigners have a really high bar to get citizenship here in the states so they have to be exceptional. Leading to a massive amounts of underpaid intelligent H1B people.

Also, America can’t get shit done with technological improvements. Our infrastructure is shit, no high speed rail systems and we’re dependent on oil. We try to change but change takes way too long.

Wtf is wrong with Detroit

Much better community. I’ve posted on Reddit and gotten posts removed, downvoted, and no interaction. Communities are smaller here but if you post something, you will get interaction.

Edit: also, after you scroll through reddit for a sufficient amount of time. You realize everything on your algorithm is karma farm bots reposting stuff. Every now and then you will get decent posts and then you look through the comments and there are karma farming bots. Essentially, you have to sift through a pile of shit to find good content.

Why aren’t there a bunch of bluesky instances? Genuinely curious, cause after a couple searches I found guides on how to self host bluesky

It claims to be decentralized but normal people can’t reasonably spin up a server like you can for Mastadon.

Which means, if it goes to shit by whoever is holding the power behind it, then it will go to shit exactly like Xitter.

With Mastadon, you can easily make an instance and jump to different instances that haven’t gone to shit.
