Not all black people are African-American or even African or American, you know? I'd be way more irritated if someone called me African-American than black, since one of these is true and the other simply isn't.
Why though? I've got no problem when Google sometimes leads me to an old reddit post. No need to have them all duplicated on lemmy. Let's just make lemmy the place for the new content
Ok now what happened. There's beans everywhere on lemmy atm and I have no clue why. Somehow I'm already out of the loop. Can someone explain please
I know meta is shit anyways, but what is the idea behind their Twitter competitor, like what is their selling point?
It always baffles me that apparently in some places people still use sms. I mean besides the fact that it isn't encrypted at all, sms doesn't even give you group chats, the ability to send images and videos or many other of features basically every other messenger has, right? Where I live it's about (just guessing the numbers here tbh) 90 % WhatsApp, 7% telegram and 3 % signal. Is there any reason that in some places so many people stay with SMS? I don't think I've send or received one in the last 10 years or so (besides companies sending me a TAN or whatever)
I also think, we'll have ads at some point - and that's perfectly fine and understandable as long as these ads aren't too many and aren't too intrusive. My hope is that because of lemmy's federated nature a healthy competition will emerge. So whenever an instance starts overloading the users with ads, users will just move to another instance with less adds at the blink of an eye.
