hey whats wrong with olive garden?

In a manner of speaking. But basically it was Firefox’s great great grandpa.

I was a die hard Firefox fan since it was Netscape navigator. But their refusal to adopt PWAs will always keep me one foot in edge/chrome.

I’ve been flirting a bit with Opera GX because of the sidebar, hard ram/cpu limits, and “my flow” feature. super handy when you’re moving between max and windows all day. But it also doesn’t do PWAs so that’s still super annoying.

On Mac I really do like safari. But they don’t have it for windows so I guess I’m just doomed to use multiple browsers.

In and out is nasty anyway. I dont get why they are still in business and people seem to like it. Far worse than arbys even imho

I would also contend that it’s good for creating more content for people to consume. Lemmy desperately needs more content to be able to provide a compelling experience for most people to put up with the cumbersome nature and awkward aspects of the fediverse.

I agree. But not everyone on that app are people who share greedy and hurtful ideas. Thats just extreme generalization imho.

I don’t understand this logic. Don’t we want Lemmy to be more mainstream and user friendly? Preemptively blocking any mainstream attempt to connect and bring in more users just sounds slightly petulant to me. Like I get meta = shitty company but I don’t get why we shouldn’t encourage more people joining the fediverse. And getting external help in growing it. And threads was the first mainstream olive branch that showed Lemmy, Kbin, and mastodon has legitimacy worth building infrastructure to join.

Idk blocking other people categorically from connecting just seems antithetical to the idea that it should be a decentralized system free to all to join.

But I’m new here, so maybe Im mistaken on the ethos of Lemmy.

Lol yeah it is.

I love it. Low profile is my jam. Went with the brown switches.

What’s a tankie?

Lmfao

Ahh yes. The Automatic Tip Machine.

Man, I’m so glad I’m here. Seeing all the cool things and excitement from the community reminds me of the early days of Reddit. This looks really awesome!

I wish it was as easy as it was when we were kids and on the playground. You would just show someone your sweet dinosaur toy and ask them to play with you and boom friends for life. Or until mom got tired of sitting in the bench. Whichever happened first.

I don’t know how it could be implemented across the fediverse. But if they could figure it out I would pay. I was a Reddit premium payer just because I loved giving awards.

The trick would be making it work across all instances. Because I could see some just opting out and then it would be broken across many different communities.

Oh hey it’s that rude guy again lol. I recognize your name. Are you just going from post to post trying to be as toxic as possible?

It sounds very similar to when I was in seminary. They literally had classes on how to manipulate your audience. How to “use vocal patterns and body language to make yourself appear more sincere.”

People severely underestimate how many shitty people there are in this world (and even those who appear trustworthy) that would eat your firstborn to increase their net worth if it wasn’t illegal.

Mine was in a joking/memey manner his was just toxic.
