I’m part of a private tracker site. I’m pretty anon to them. They have an email but I use a VPN all the time. They had a requirement of having the same IP, so I just used one specific server.

In other news, water is wet.

This is good, but a bit late for me. I already moved to Bitwarden for passwords and 2FA. I also don’t expect this to work on my Linux PC.

Lenny is showing them how well a fediverse can work, so they want to try more social media based on it. Also twitter is a tire fire right now.

How about you take none of it and let people use a service without being a product? Oh wait, you’re Metaface.

Use Signal to talk to my gf. Had her get it so we didn’t have to use some shit like SMS or Snapchat, since I’m on iPhone and she’s on android. Had a couple of issues with messages not going through but since she upgraded her old phone it’s been fine.

Yes, at lest they did, not sure if that’s changing now.

I use Apple TV, something about needing a third party proprietary app makes it seem cobbled together compared to Plex, especially with that app being freemium. Maybe someday they will have a dedicated app. Last time I looked (probably a year ago) they didn’t have a system for ratings to make a kids account, has that been added?

Yeah, I already have premium to support creators I like to watch because I hat ads. Twitter can just fuck itself, never used it much at all. For Reddit I would have paid for Apollo annually if that was what was required to keep it going, but it’s apparent that making people pay a fair share wasn’t the goal.

Definitely. I hardly even looked at Reddit for like 3 years. I feel comfortable and somewhat eager to talk here on Lemmy. The people are so much nicer, I’m not anxious about some entitled prick fighting with me about opinions.

That would be better than any FAST I’ve seen.

Wow, it’s almost like those free channels the put all over my Plex that nobody wants was was a bad investment. Still love Plex as a service but I find it hard to see any value in FAST.

Best beans ever. US beans are horrible. I pay $4 a can for these glorious beans.

Love these videos. Used to not know the difference between a street and a road. Now I can see how shitty North American city planning is.

Being a Nobara user, with AMD CPU and GPU, I’m very much a minority.

I personally prefer to ban a person or community if I come across them and don’t like their behavior, rather then defederating the whole bunch, but I do acknowledge that me blocking someone doesn’t prevent voting spam. And again with people being able to just make an account on another instance after being defederated it makes it kinda moot.

Nay

That is fair, just odd to banish all mention of FOSS or federated services. If it is what they are doing, they don’t want people getting that kind of mindset I suppose.

I’m more of a dog person, but I suppose that is missing.

Fair point. But I will say as a pretty new comer to Lemmy, it is hard to find an instance that you know will be a good fit.
