type site:lemmy.world in front of your search if using google. You can combine multiple instances with the OR operator ie site:lemmy.world OR site:programming.dev this will force google to give you content only from your desired domains but lemmy.world posts will likely trample the other instances for a lot of stuff.

We’re becoming a little centralized (which I personally don’t find to be such a bad thing yet).

It’s important to note how we got here. In old English man just meant human. Wereman meant male and wifman meant female. Over time that “were” prefix got dropped and man now means male but the ambiguous meaning of humankind stuck around. In fact “human” comes from old french “of man”, again the non-gendered use of the word man.

The point is to fix all these problems we just have to bring back the “were”. The progressive werewolves are way ahead of us on this issue.

My balls just got 18% bigger when you said that.

I had access to everything legit and still mainly sailed the high seas. I just prefer to have all the content centralised and local.

My wife used to prefer the streaming apps but she really converted and thought I was a genius when we went for 2 months with constant isp internet drops for hours at a time.

That’s me. Besides the ads/promotion/tracking shit pre-elon Twitter was doing pretty much exactly what I want from it. It was mostly for the parasocial relationships not for keeping up with actual friends. I’d get news and announcements straight from the source quickly and even with a verified checkmark to help ensure I wasn’t getting trolled. Now it’s trash.
