The older I get, the more I fucking hate obnoxiously loud cars..... It was like a switch that went off in my head when I hit the 35-40yrs old mark.

Pumping base tunes from said vehicle is additional hate.

Jerboa's last update or so has become really buggy for me and doesn't work the vast majority of the time. I have since dropped it and moved to connect which seems a lot more stable :)

I have never understood people's lack of ability to just move on.

Don't like something, like seriously just move on, don't like a post / comment, move on rinse and repeat.

You're not going to like everything and you're not going to agree with everyone, and you know what..... That's alright, it's being human !

That a Welsh username by chance?

And yea, thoroughly depressing.... I find the situation similar to the old micro transaction / shit game port situation where the masses couldn't care less and the small minority rebel and have little to no effect.

Sadly those that care about these things are generally grossly outweighed by those that couldn't give a toss. I haven't been back to Reddit for 4-5 weeks now and as a very early Reddit adopter I thought the break would be harder than what it has been. I have mentioned in a few posts here that the most surprisong thing to me is how often I was being served subtle ads guised in the form of content on Reddit. In 4 weeks or more I don't think I have seen a brand as such mentioned on Lemmy yet with Reddit it was legit every dozen posts. I knew this went on, but it took a week or so on Lemmy for me to realise the actual extent of it.....

Good riddance to the place, Lemmy feels like the early doors of the internet and I'm quite comfortable here :)

Since moving to Lemmy a few weeks ago I genuinely didn't realise just how many ads I was being served via Reddit which weren't guised as actual paid ads. I legit can say after weeks of trawling Lemmy, I don't think I have seen a single brand or image of a brand being posted anywhere.

On Reddit it was every few posts....

I haven't been back now for at least 4 weeks and at this point, no longer miss it. Between Lemmy, Chan and couple of other sites I get news from, the void of no Reddit has been filled.

Really enjoying my time with Lemmy.... It reminds me of early web :) I hope it doesn't change!

This would seriously make my day if true.... I was a Boost junky until I decided to leave Reedit a few weeks back. Would love to have the same (or very similar UI and features) here for Lemmy !

Sweet Jesus is that true?? We really are living in a dystopian nightmare!

I genuinely love the internet some times ... Like what are you doing to protest again? You can hear the Reddit HQ - "Another sub has gone John Oliver guys !".

Seriously amusing stuff......
