Im on both loops and pixelfed but would like something like this as well.

This opinion is so ignorant, gatekeepy and out of touch that I have no idea where to even begin.

This should be fun

Joke’s on you, they never left

Keen!

I also went through this. I also just toughed it out and radically accepted and expected them to happen tbh, and I didn’t taper off either, I just got off them immediately which is inadvisable but I have a thing where i’d rather have big pain fast than small pain slow. I got them multiple times every minute or so for (I think) between 2 and two weeks.
Be very kind to yourself, give yourself some grace and treat yourself. you’re going through a lot and you deserve to be given TLC while you’re going through it <3 Sending you strength!

Still no ever going to give them a cent but it’s good that they suck less

Ooo cool. I’ve subscribed to both. Thanks

I personally don’t like microblogging platforms in general. It’s cool that there’s an alternative to twitter and the like, but I just have no pull towards platforms that emulate that kind of environment.
I think it’s great that it’s so popular and has introduced a lot of people to the fediverse and spread awareness of ethical alternatives to corporate slop, but is not for me.

Tbh it’s an unfortunate risk that comes with relationships, period. Doesn’t matter how many relationships one has, be it simultaneously or not. Practicing safe sex, testing and communicating well is the only thing that separates someone with STDs, and someone without STDs. I’d go so far as to say people who have open relationships probably tend to practice safety more often than those who don’t

I’m not upvoting this.
it’s a fantastic, well-reasoned post, but I don’t believe it’s an unpopular opinion to at all.
The public conversation around DEI is highly polarized which creates a false impression that a balanced, pragmatic view like this is rare. I think you’ve articulated a middle ground that most people hold

I actually can’t describe how awesome this is.
My dream is to use a 2210 to use whatsapp. that’s all I need on the go tbh

Thar ya go

Any intentional choice made to capture human attention functions as an algorithm.

For instance, when a creator posts an intentionally silly title, it triggers a predictable urge in users to comment on that silliness. This deliberate cause-and-effect cycle means the creator’s strategy itself is the engagement-driving algorithm. A good example of this human-designed system is ragebaiting which systematically uses manufactured outrage to multiply views and comments

A Russian Sausage is a South African imitation of the Polish Kielbasa that was adapted by early European immigrants in South Africa. So a Russian Roll is pretty much a Hot Dog Roll but with a Russian Sausage instead

If it’s effective, sure!
