1. My favourite 3rd party app stopped working
2. Reddit is filled with bots nowadays
3. Many of my favourite places on Reddit have been flooded by right-wing reactionaries

Yeah… sure. Not a tankie, I’m European and don’t care about influencing you to vote for one or another. But after seeing Biden “debate” Trump I know the dems are fucked. I mean sure, still go out and vote, but I honestly don’t see many people doing so.

Republicans are also liberals. At least in the true sense of the word. So it’s low-key funny when they use the term liberal as an insult.

I myself am not a liberal. Fiscally at least. Socially I’m a progressive.

Dusti Rose sounds like a 40 year old chain smoker that looks 65

Why would you name your kid that

Guess they’ll have to sell the company to an American buyer now!

An alternative that is easy to join for every normie, where NSFW is allowed, and the service works seamlessly 24/7.

Funny, but we use the same thing about the Devil beating his wife in Romania as well. At least in Transylvania we do. It’s surprising to see this being used in the US as well. I wonder where it originated from.

Apparently the first time this was used was in France 1703. More info here: https://www.theidioms.com/the-devil-is-beating-his-wife/

I don’t own a car (mostly because it’s slower than the train). I use a carsharing service on the extremely rare occasion I need a car to get somewhere. Otherwise I either ride a bike or take the train. I mostly work from home (Yeah, I know not everyone has that privilege) I don’t really eat beef or pork (mostly poultry and tuna for the protein, and tons of rice - I do bodybuilding) I don’t order many things through marketplacess like Amazon (mostly because I’m fairly minimalist and don’t like clutter. I also like things of good build quality that last longer) I take five mins. max. showers (I hate spending time in the shower) I don’t buy new tech every year (I don’t see the need to, if it works it works. My phone is three years old at this point and I plan on keeping it for at least three more years). I dislike fast fashion (again, mostly because I like things of high build quality). I buy food in little quanitites that I know I will eat and won’t go to waste. I also avoid things that are packaged in tons of plastic. And I use my own shopping bags to carry groceries. I vote for politicians that try to tackle climate change in various ways

All of these are not necessarily active decisions I take because of climate change. They’re mostly byproducts of my fairly simple and privileged lifestyle. I understand that not everyone has the privilege of a higher education with a good paying job that allows them to work from home, live in a city where everything is 5 minutes away on foot and buy stuff expensive products of high build quality that last longer thus avoiding fast fashion and other more climate damaging things.

Depends on where you live. In Germany they’ve been quite successful with the average person.

It was never about covid. These people are born to be contrarians about whatever other people are doing. I don’t know exactly what makes them want to live that way, but that’s just their preferred way of existing. Be it covid, Russia, LGBT, and whatever other “”“opinions”“” they’ve been spoon fed on their Facebook feed. They always change. Every other week/month/year it’s something else they get butthurt about. Funnily enough, it’s almost always the same type of person: no education, frustrated with life, dead-end job, in debt, and so on. I personally believe that angertainment is a coping mechanism for them. I’ve told family members before to stick to normal topics like a normal social human being when talking to me, because I do not care about their frustrations with whatever X is doing.

!reddit@lemmy.world is the only one. I don’t care what Reddit does. I couldn’t care less. I don’t want to read about it.

I just :))

How do they measure “active” users? I assume that just having an account doesn’t quite count you as active.

Reddit ist so ein Haufen 💩
