And we're now getting the Meta shills as well, wanting everyone to federate with Threads because "what harm is there in federating with a fascist mega corporation? You're being too judgmental and intolerant"

I hope the instance admins defederate with any corporate owned instance as soon as they become a thing. If they become the main voices on the fediverse the will kill it.
I'm sure Lemmygrad will, at the very least
I also expect lemmy.ml to defederate since Dessalines and Nutomic admin it. I have an account on Lemmygrad as a "safe house" from enshittification, but I intend to keep it mainly for my studies and be able to still use this one for general crap (hello Genshin Impact).
Hope lemmy.world admins don't be too naive about Meta.
What's the story here, then? Is Meta planning to just slide into the federated world? That can't be taken in good faith. It's got shareholders! If they're federating, it'll be to corner the federated world.
Like Threads isn't going to play nice with Twitter; they both want the same users, exclusively. If these ghoul-corps do federate, they will have a plan to advertise across the fediverse. Other instances might not accept advertising but it won't stop armies of advertiser bots.
They'll do the same with politics. We might even already be seeing the start of it. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that what's happening to Twitter and Reddit is by design so that users jump to the next thing, where three letter and advertising agencies (instructed by the bourgeoisie) are already setting up shop in the dark – where they'll be harder to see. They realised where the future was and cut their losses.
Maybe I'm just a crank.
Yup, Meta is planning to implement ActiveHub (the protocol Mastodon, Lemmy, Kbin and others use to communicate with each other) and federate with us. We're better off blocking them.
I wouldn't be surprised if they set up some Lemmy and Mastodon instances to create a faux fediverse and divert people from the grass roots one. If I were them, I'd already be doing it…
They probably already are, or at the very least they plan to do so.
I’m sorry if I sound like some old boomer waving their cane around, but would it be possible to make this nsfw? It’s not fun to stumble across while eating.
No problem.
Ah fuck, sorry your platform got shit on. I hope I'll become a good Lemmist.

Yeha, i scuk at typnig
another way to call lemmygrad users:
But I like my beans and poop
Enjoy then i guess. Btw what it is about the beans?
Someone posted a can of beans in lemmy.world's shitpost community and said lemmy users will upvote anything. It got a couple thousand likes and rose to the top of the feed. I found it mildly funny at the time, but the way it is still beeing regurgitated reminds me to much of reddit.
Tbf, beans are pretty good
True, together with lentils they are my goto protein source. If only they wouldn't cause petarades... Or maybe I'm just cooking them wrong :D
What are peterades?
Oh I misspelled it. Petarades is a fancy word for farts. Read that somewhere and sounded kinda funny, as comes from pétarade (backfire) in french. English is not my first language so I though it would be more common than it actually is.
Bean farts can be completely negated by fermenting the beans with a salt brine like you would a sauerkraut, kimchi, pickles, etc. The lactobacillus and other probiotics will completely ferment the polysaccharides in the beans that cause the gas. The process takes time, about 4 weeks minimum, but that's about what you would do for a fully fermented sauerkraut. It will also increase protein availability, soluble fiber, and decrease soluble sugars by up to 75%. I stagger my ferments so I always have some available. They can sit in the brine, fully fermented, for months if you have an air lock set up. I will also periodically ferment them pressure can them for long term storage.
Oh, this is super usefull info, thanks. I am no native speaker, is brine just salty water, or is there something else like vinegar required?
With air lock you mean like a mason jars?
2% salt brine in water that's of the total weight of beans plus water. What's I do is:
- Soak dry beans in fresh water for at least 8 hours or overnight.
- Drain off the excess water from the hydrated beans.
- Get a jar and tare the weight on a scale.
- Add the beans and cover by about 1 - 2 inches of water.
- You want to get the weight of the beans plus the water. So I tare the jar on the scale and then add the beans and water and weight again. You could also write down the jar weight and then subtract that weight from the total.
- You then multiply the weight of the beans and water by 0.02 to get the weight of salt you add. So let's say you have 1500 grams of beans and 1000 grams of water you have 2500 total weight. 0.02 of that is 50 grams of salt. Weight it out then add to the jar with beans and water. Put a lid on and shake it a bit to dissolve the salt. Then put on an air lock lid for the jar.
- You will want to put the jar somewhere out of the way. Beans don't exactly smell the best when fermenting. Not necessarily "bad" but very unique and not exactly a pleasant smell either. But that's the price of not having those gasses come out your bum later.
I use mason jars of varying size. Some store bought lids with air locks. Some I have made myself for odd shaped jars with lids not commercially made with air lock options. Will try and get a few pics.
Ah I don't think the smell is going to be an issue, I'll just place them on my balkony. I think I'll give it a try, thanks for helping me fart less :P
