A decade ago I don’t think the circumstances would have allowed lemmy to exist because reddit was still in its growing phase and it was not as commonly known and appreciated as it is today.

It would have been cool to develop lemmy like that but I think now is the right time for people to realise why lemmy should exist.

By the way is there some way to search for a video title inside a long youtube playlist? I always have to resort to scrolling down a dozen times on long playlists and then use text search in the browser.

Honestly the last time Trump was president I think it was similar on reddit and in the media in general. It’s just that news about the stupid stuff he does seem to generate a lot of engagement and that’s what platforms and news organisations are looking for.

So how old is he? If all of you got children at 18 he could only be 82 if my calculation is correct.

Or just humanity in its entirety.

What do you classify as free speech?

According to movies the aliens always attack the US anyway so I don’t see a problem.

Ok, I’ll stock up on it.

For example?

How is the teaching going?

Yeah those were the days. Also all those Medic effects. I can’t remember another game having PhysX displayed so prominently.

Planetside 2. That experience of actually fighting with thousands of players on the same map is something no other game can give. Otherwise it’s not really a super good game and the graphics actually got worse at some point by largely removing PhysX. Sadly the company owning it doesn’t want to put money into it and the playerbase is much smaller today than some years ago.

Must be quite high for me too since every time our internet doesn’t work I realise how little things you can do on your phone and PC that don’t rely on the internet. Even for programming you constantly need to look up things.

The Marvel universe is mainly there to create possibilities to make more money, not to tell a good story. Granted I have hardly seen any of the movies/series, but after Avengers I never saw a reason to. Marvel realised Avengers was good and now they pulled out as much stuff out of the universe to fill a seemingly endless stream of “storytelling”.

Absolutely. If this rule was a permanent rule I don’t think so many people would defend it. However from experience (reddit for example) I think many people know that US politics has the ability to claim and overrun just about every space on the “western” internet. This is not something that really creates value for many people especially those that don’t live in the US and I think this ruling is trying to prevent that.

Instead of complaining can someone who dislikes this decision please just create a community like “AskLemmyUS”, post a link here so people can find it and get on with it?

What’s wrong about it though? The freedom lies in the ability to create your own community that is not regulated by one company/organisation owning the platform. You can go to the place where you agree with the rules and you don’t have to live under the rules of someone you don’t like.

By giving people the opportunity to host their own instances and create their own communities with rules they like. This however does not mean that everything should be allowed everywhere. Actually this means that everywhere you go people make their own rules and if you dont like them, go somewhere else or create your own community.

Honestly they can look quite amazing with the help of AI.
