Ghost in the Shell (2017) was quite good.

The developers of Lemmy are the type who have jumped the shark when it comes to leftism.

You’re not allowed to be mild mannered you idiot. Them’s the rules. Now engage me in ill intentioned banter. We will meet at dawn.

The other thing is that they typically ban you for life, which is harsher even than our legal system. As a society we’ve agreed that it’s possible to pay your debt to society, but private companies have no obligation to see things that way. It’s like we’ve taken rules to deal with trolls in an old school Counter Strike server and tried to extend them to something that resembles a corporatocracy. It’s a lot different and more meaningful to get banned from service provided by a monopolistic company compared to getting banned from your local bar, for example, when you can just go across town to the other one.

I usually give my comm to whoever’s doing well on the imaginary leader board and moving the run along quickly.

I think part of the problem is that certain factions tend to be, as a whole, antithetical to open minded good faith engagement. The other part is that if you express a view too close to the views of one of those factions then people (reasonably) take shortcuts and use mental heuristics to determine that you’re not worth engaging with. The result is that it’s difficult to find common ground, especially on the internet where some (many) people are truly not acting in good faith.

Nothing, it’s just an extra charge so that the company can make more money.

Many are waiting for 0.18.1 due to captcha being necessary to control spam and bots

I wish someone could explain to me how this wumao BS has gained any traction at all.

Nice, good info to know. I’ve been using this browser extension to speed up subscribing to communities across different instances, so I end up just loading the URL directly rather than searching for it on lemmy.world. I’ll make sure to try searching next time if I run into the same problem.

It works for me now, thank you. I guess there’s just a delay in pushing/pulling things from different instances?

I brought up this community on the ffxiv discord, and I think I managed to convince at least 1 person that lemmy is a pretty cool idea.

To be honest, I remember Reddit having a similar feel back in the day before it grew so massive. But this is still nice.

Any idea why I can’t open https://lemmy.world/c/gardening@mander.xyz? Mander.xyz should be federated. I just get 404: couldnt_find_community
