It is way easier to get banned on reddit for a lot less than a slight not conformist opinion. Here they downvote you, stop. And i talk about real controversies.

ShittyRedditWasBetter ,

100% disagree and add in the fact that everything here is a ninja ban with no explanation. This place is an echo chamber in places like fuck cars and the socialist subs. Privacy too. Was banned for what I can tell was pointing out that lemmy instances do not protect privacy at all.

Sounds like this might not be place for you, why don’t you take a hint and go back to reddit instead of whinging here.

vzq ,

This place is an echo chamber in places like fuck cars and the socialist subs.

The way I see it, there are subs/coms that are like fight club and subs that are like country clubs.

If you get all argumentative and in peoples faces in a fight club, they be “no U” and argue back.

But if people just want to chill out with their friends and you come over to start shit, you’ll get escorted out. And rightly so.

This place is an echo chamber in places like fuck cars and the socialist subs

What aspect of fuckcars do you consider an echo chamber?

There’s over a dozen socialism communities, if you find one to be an ‘echo chamber’ then I’d suggest seeking another. I’d imagine the socialism community on Beehaw would have a completely different vibe to the one on Lemmygrad, as an example

Was banned for what I can tell was pointing out that lemmy instances do not protect privacy at all

This is common knowledge though, wouldn’t be surprised if the mods were sick of the same discussion being created over and over again by various users. Something federated - designed to be open, decentralised, unrestricted, cannot be inherently privacy friendly.

If your privacy threat model brings you to an ideological disagreement with federated networks, it would be reasonable to consider moving to an alternative platform IMO.

ShittyRedditWasBetter ,

No use for trucks, only Americans buy SUVs, you can’t find cars for under 20k etc. As for the mods, 🤷‍♂️ don’t ninja ban and maybe folks would understand.

Uh huh. I’m already banned from some lemmygrad community. I don’t give enough of a shit to learn the name of it.

That would be really small. The higher the gauge number, the smaller it is.

I will never call it "X," just like I will never call Facebook "Meta."

ImplyingImplications ,

Isn’t Facebook still Facebook? Meta is the parent company that owns Instagram, WhatsApp, Threads, Oculus, Onavo, Beluga, and about 90 other tech companies. They do just like Google, or Alphabet, and buy out every tech startup that has any chance of success to ensure they never have competition.

Duckduckgo found tracking attempts in mull for me. It hasn’t in Firefox. I don’t know what makes the difference though.

LinkOpensChest_wav ,
@LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.one avatar

I’m not sure about Mull because I’ve never tried it. I use Fennec, which purportedly removes the problematic telemetry, but I’ll be honest I’ve never actually verified this.

I do know some apps instead of removing trackers will replace them with dummy trackers, so I wonder if this might be what duckduckgo is detecting. I don’t really know since I also avoid duckduckgo lol

Most tractors are manual too, I’m pretty sure. I would be surprised to find any farmers out there who only drive automatic.

jcg ,

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as the clutch, is in fact, the clutch pedal, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, the clutch+pedal. The pedal is not a mechanism unto itself, but rather another mechanical component of a fully functioning clutch system made useful by th

This line from the website made my day: There are currently 452.934 users who have submitted 17.125.673 skip segments, which have saved a total of 4185 years and 4.84 days of people’s lives.

Baguette ,

I forgot that periods are used in some places instead of commas for thousands and was wondering how you could get 0.934 of a person

For some reason though its written as 4.84 instead which I thought should be written as 4,84?

dubyakay ,

Sound about right.

ILikeBoobies ,

Go Canadian, use spaces 452 934

Baku ,

Are spaces used in place of commas in regular casual conversations, too? In Australia, I’ve only ever seen them used in really formal documents like financial reports, never really anywhere else

ILikeBoobies ,

Using commas looks weird here. You never really see anything other than spaces unless it’s foreign

I was taught to use spaces for thousands in Canberra

$5 Black Mesa brother. It looks phenomenal now.

ArrogantAnalyst ,

If he never played the original I think it’s good he starts with it. Black Mess is great, but the original Half Life has a certain historical value (and is still a great game).

blanketswithsmallpox ,

New Black Mesa is Half Life…

ArrogantAnalyst , (edited )

You are saying the third party remake in another engine from 2020 is the same as the original from 1998?

blanketswithsmallpox ,

Black Mesa is literally just better looking Half-Life approved by Valve. I can really only say the same thing so many times before you understand that what I’m saying is what it is lol.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Mesa_(video_game)

ArrogantAnalyst , (edited )

And you’re saying there’s no difference between playing Black Mesa today vs playing Half life today, and therefore he might as well start out with Black Mesa? Or what is the meaning of your reply?

Hard disagree. Games like Half life have a huge historical value for their impact. Playing the original is worth it. Especially if one takes the medium itself seriously. You wouldn’t say an original movie and a 22 years younger remake are “the same”, right? I think you’re playing dumb with me.

Love the Wikipedia link btw. I’ve played Black Mesa in its early access phase already and then later on again when they released Xen.

blanketswithsmallpox ,

No, I just think you’re kinda dumb now looking for a pedantic fight on Lemmy of all places trying to argue that Half-Life and Black Mesa aren’t the same story and essential game lol.

ArrogantAnalyst ,

I didnt argue anything like that. I earlier suspected that you were just playing dumb. Maybe what I actually argued really was too much to process.
