This one is probably out of date now with smart TVs and few people using cable, but one of those jumbo TV remotes for people with poor eyesight/motor difficulties.

It’s like email! You know email?

Especially when sites like Reddit/StackExchange use admin to mean employee and moderator to mean volunteer community leader.

I’m on Lemmy essentially 99% of the time. When I’m on Reddit it’s because of niche hobbies that have more presence there. It’s very rare. (Or search index results.)

I never use Mastodon. I was only on Twitter for very niche and interactive hobbies that do not have enough people to engage with on Mastodon. I mostly use BlueSky now but still use Twitter on occasion. It’s like 50/50 at the moment, but that’s a lot considering my BlueSky account is only like two weeks old.

Lemmy has enough content to keep me entertained for general browsing and most of my hobbies.

Don’t even get me started on planking.

Slowroll is new and still experimental, but it’s a third option.

There’s a massive difference between suing and striking. Suing someone means you’re intending to take them to court. A copyright strike is different. I forget if copyright strike implies DMCA or content ID. DMCA possibly involves lawyers (honestly can’t remember) but it removes the content from the site and that’s it (you only go to court if you disagree and they push back). Content ID is an automated process that either removes sounds, portions of videos, or takes a portion of ad revenue.

No, that’s their normal one that’s not rolling.

This is the conclusion I came to and what has kept me positive. Remembering that, while there was a ton of shit happening, I had plenty of happy memories from that time too. I finally made new friends after moving out of my hometown and I’m still friends with them to this day. I remembered all the great moments and memories I made during that time.

Don’t let the bastards grind you down. Take a beat of you need it. Take it one hour at a time, one day at a time, one week at a time. You can do this.

Anytime!

It sounds really appealing! I wish it wasn’t considered experimental or I’d consider it for my daily driver.

Ohhh, I get you now. Yes, that’s likely a thing most of them would believe.

(Not saying I agree or disagree with it, just trying to explain what Hexbear typically implies to most people in a factual, unbiased way because you said you’re out of the loop.)

Hexbear existed as an instance prior to the Reddit API changes of 2023. They’d been around for a few years. Most instances federate by default with everyone, but Hexbear took a slower opening of it because they already had an established culture. (Think of this similarly to people discussing the pros/cons of federating with Threads. It would be a big change to the way things are now so it’s controversial.) It’s possible they weren’t ever federated with beehaw.org (your instance) so you may have never seen them or interacted with them.

Have you tried that other one? Slowroll? I forget what it’s called. It’s like tumbleweed but with monthly releases instead of constant.

I’m aware, that’s part of the point I’m making.

I don’t get your point. Hexbear is not centrist, it’s very left leaning.

That’s the taboo! Boo! How dare you!

I voted for [Trump] myself.

but I’ve not paid a cent to any artists’ work that I love in my whole life

I doubt this. Have you ever consumed any form of media? Did you pay for it? Movies, games, television, music, nothing?
