I never had to log in ever when looking at TikTok videos nnt friends sent. Live streams though have to log in.

By this point of my life on this floating rock we call Earth, I think having a filter is a good thing lol.

Not all things need to be easy as piss

I’ll be happy to help my friends to jump in and guide through the filter. And if some of them aren’t will to do it (much like reddit before it is changed targeting the lowest common denominator audience that is addicted to online validation), well I can’t help them.

I agree. Since reddit has turned into whatever it is that they want now instead of the original “link aggregator with comments” that I started with and liked a lot, I feel that the threadiverse covers the era of reddit very well

And now I understand why people would go to /all on reddit before. With the lack of (or little) algorithm back then on reddit and (mostly) solely rely only on voting, /all really do can be a slot machine of interesting topics.

Like it makes sense to me if an app does that. Is that what they could mean with it?

On an actual web browser I agree with you.

My guess is they’re the late reddit accounts when reddit is already big and shit. They weren’t around when reddit was just “small digg”. Tbf I wasn’t there as well.

I was there when reddit already have comments for posts and remember imgur is the image hosting site for reddit (with no culture and community of its own. Until the reddit file cabinet suddenly gained “sentience”).

I suspect it’s most likely those that cried about lemmy’s “bad UI” only joined after reddit turned into the vomit inducing non chronologically sorted reddit.

Side note I have never browsed r/all ever, but I concede it’s a necessity for the threadiverse. But it’s all just for me to further curate what I want to see. I was never into whatever dogfood sorting spyware algos tried to force down.

Though I admit it took me several tries to understand federation and how it works.

You can also swipe left for voting and replying… in some views lol

Now that I’m saying it, it has some weirdness to it even though I’ve used it for months.

I’d say it’s halfway between old reddit and new reddit. And I hate new reddit with a passion but felt like old reddit is a bit tiresome.

Piefed has theming though to change a bit.

Would you be willing to try Summit? That also supports piefed instances for some time now.

I didn’t know voyager now supports piefed. Have to give it a try some time.

On top of what others have said, I’m going to recommend piefed to my friends when they want to jump in because of the built in on boarding.

From the start it’ll show you and let you pick what topics you might like to see (so sort of like multireddit that groups together similarly themed communities into one feed / group), and shows what you want to filter and partially hide and or outright block posts with certain terms. It just kickstarts someone new so quickly with what they would want to see rather than going to all view and swim through a lot of posts that might turn you off of Lemmy/mbin/piefed.

And like you said Lemmy and piefed still federates with each other so still can leverage the content already existed.

And later on you could create your own topics/grouped communities just like multireddits.

Are you on a Samsung phone? If yes you can check out the good lock module home up. That enables a lot of customization options on the Samsung stock launcher.

Although I can’t vouch for it since I sometimes use either Niagara launcher or kvaesitso.

The former is a simple minimalist launcher of just having 8 quick apps and a list of apps that’s easily searchable or use alphabetical quick scroll. You can kind of make folders in it, but I don’t have the words to describe how. They do it differently than nova. I’m really just giving a quick summary; there’s a bit more to it if you want a change.

Sorry that I don’t have a close 1:1 nova replacement. I just didn’t use it since way back when I got it for a dollar or something stupidly low. Something just didn’t click.

Kvaesitso is also a semi change than nova launcher. No folders for apps though. But it has a dedicated infitine vertically scrolling page for widgets. The app drawer have a section separate for pinned apps and most used apps, before showing the whole app drawer (and doesn’t “hide” the pinned and most used apps like some launchers do).

I love zen browser and its workspaces. I just cannot use any other Firefox forks anymore without it. It’s more than just containers in Firefox.

ICE is the descendant of the indigenous child abductors for boarding schools, ICE is the descendant of the Jim Crow South law enforcement.

Non North American here. What the fuck are those things??? I’ve never read about those before. I’ve read about the CIA crimes against humanity already, and USA’s banana republic. I guess somewhere back when I stopped reading more into the US’s atrocities either life got me or I was too horrified.

GParted is very reliable, but never do any disc operation without a tested backup in hand. Honestly the first and best self hosted thing you can do is a NAS backup.

I’ll be living the that NTFS drive for a while then as I look for deals for storage during this dreadful AI hype shit.

If I was all in college I’ll love total launcher. Now I just use Niagara launcher of kvaesitso launcher

Now I want some Vegemite sandwich, even though I just had lunch.

I’m personally waiting for the 1.0 / Deep North update to go back to playing it. But even when I stopped playing because of just getting bored with it, 2 years ago according to Steam, it’s a good game already with complete mechanics. And there are quality of life mods you can add on top of the configs you can do in the base game when setting up a world.

Even solo, as someone that usually gets bored with open world survival games, it has enough draw for me to have 1 - 2 hours gaming sessions for a month straight.

Schrodinger’s fediverse convert. Could be a decent person or a horrible person until observed.

My gripe with calling LLMs AI is it makes it harder to discuss enemy AI behaviour in video games lol.

Bend backwards and ponder your shiny orb of a head, Nadella. That’s the whole point.

And there’s a lot of pop culture music references. A shame that the English version of the names have to be changed because of trademarks? I’m not sure on which legal jargon that prevents them using the names.

Still, I haven’t thought of it that they’re basically crime fighting but it makes sense.
