I know people who have and they're pretty satisfied with their purchases (mostly for audio stuff, though). But I agree i won't buy something there without reviews.
Honestly, great writeup. I missed this user/community, but I feel I'm up-to-date with this post. Man, that guy was using mental gymnastics like no other lol.
With a squeaky voice (I just know it)
LMAOOOOOO
I think I'm gonna like this community. 10/10. Will come back again 👍 👍 👍
Edit: I wonder what's the relevance of "860"
Idk if it's the previous mascot. When I joined it never felt like it was child-like or anything. I do like the new one, though.
I think that guy is just looking for an instance/server that would tolerate or at least ignore the BS he's trying to push. I never even saw his posts so kudos to you for being on top of it really quickly. And I hope that guy doesn't find an instance he can spread his ideas in.
Yeah. I have. Echo chambers. Hated them.
But the OP seems to be open-minded based on this post. If he is (or at least tries to be), then I don't see a reason why we should just criticize him just because of his politics. If he eventually proves to be a troll or breaks rules then maybe the admins can ban him.
It's hard to generalize. There are assholes from all political spectrums, even though there may be more in others.
Edit: if I'm not mistaken, I think it was Voat I checked out last? I really can't remember but this isn't the first time I tried leaving reddit. This is the most successful attempt yet, though. I also inadvertently joined a Q group/channel on Telegram. Lmao.
You're right. The devs know it can be confusing to new guys and are planning to do something about it. Idk what the progress is, though. They seem to be pretty busy making lemmy stable first.
So anyone who doesn't subscribe to everything you believe in or agree with are liars, ignorant, and hateful? Discussions and debate can be healthy.
From what I've read, the owner went the"free speech" and "I only want discussions" route, removing 2 well-respected (based on comments I've read) admins in the process. Also made changes to the TOS such as what you post there is now owned by them. Seemed familiar. 🤔
Unfortunately, it seemed to me most of them are moving to Discuit, not lemmy.
Edit: not - > now. My inability to spell will get me in trouble really soon. I just know it. 🤦♂️
My desktop now refuses to sleep automatically since maybe 2 updates ago. I'm so sick and tired of troubleshooting it at this point that I just shut it down if I'll be gone for more than 10 minutes.
Ubuntu. Pretty sure you already have an idea why. Lol.
OpenSUSE. I've always had issues trying to use it, from zypper to updates to bootloops. It's also sluggish compared to other distros (yes, same DEs usually) on my laptop. I've tried at least 3x trying to get why a lot of people love it. It's just not for me.
I've never tried Manjaro yet, but coming from Arch and EOS I don't think I ever will.
I just checked it out after seeing this post.
I just don't understand why most are dead set on moving to discuit (?). I have absolutley nothing against that site but...
Come on. Reddit kicked your balls. Squabblr just basically suddenly decided to fuck you in the ass. And now you're moving to another centralized platform where things can drastically change at the whims of a few individuals who are in charge? Haven't you had enough? Smfh.
Edit: oh it seems they also changed the TOS to be more reddit-like. IE: your data is theirs. Lol.
takes mmmbop to a whole new meaning.
