Is anyone else having trouble giving up Reddit due to content?
I’m not trying to cause an argument but when Reddit pulled it’s bs - I said that’s enough. I gave up my Reddit addiction and didn’t open it or visit the site for over 30 days....

When you notice Lemmy is quieter than usual, then have a look at the Lemmy.world status
Seems like they are under attack again, will those people never stop? I feel sorry for the admin team.
We should rename Solar to Patriot Power to make it palatable to the right
The Left is doing it wrong....
On the future of Lemmy vs reddit
Please indulge a few shower thoughts I had:...
Instead of movies and crappy games on those in-flight displays, they should just stream the view out the cockpit window.
Like, I’m on a plane. I don’t want to watch Toy Story when I can do that at home, I want to see what the pilots see. And that way every seat has technically a window to look out of.

What was a profound moment that a video game caused you to experience, and why?
The moment that inspired this question:...

[Rant] I swear to fucking god. Windows is harder to use than Linux. Have any of you ever USED Windows lately? Holy fuck.
I’m helping a family member build a pc. He wanted to use Windows because “Linux can’t play games” despite me having a perfectly good gaming laptop running Linux that runs all my games, even graphically intensive ones....
I feel like we're all stuck in a movie where all the rich people live on some kind of floating island or satellite with everything they need to live well, and all of us have zero chance of going there
I have seen a few of these with similar story lines and realized we are living it right now. They have the best healthcare, the best food, the best everything and most of us are a few dollars from disaster. That scares some of us to death literally from all the stress it causes.

Lemmy probably feels like Reddit when it first started, all warm cuddly and friendly to newcomers eager to discuss and collaborate around central topics.
I joined reddit on the tailwind, so it was all echo chamber, we hate newcomers, gatekeeping, automod frenzy, too many rulebreakers, too many rules, etc I could be wrong, but thats what I imagine it used to be like.
Internet developments have gone from exciting to dreadful.
Idk if this is the right community for this conversation, but it’s been on my mind and I want to share it with someone....
Anyone else feel that Lemmy just *isn't* addictive?
Or at least less so than Reddit. It’s good, but, I can’t put my finger on it. Even when the content is good, the servers are up, and I’m getting notifications responding to comments, it’s never come to me doomscrolling for hours....
Capitalism is nothing but a giant pyramid scheme.
I switched from Windows 10 to Linux. Its great!
I was using Windows for a long time, from 95, XP, 7 and 10. Games just worked out fine, software that I needed I pirated. But I was annoyed from updates, (cannot turn off MY pc, just update and turn off option) bing, fokin bing and oh the best - F1 binded to it....
