BURN IT DOWN BURN IT DOWN

Failed excrement

He’s watching. Do not speak to andy piper, andy piper speaks to you only if he wishes.

It seems really antithetical to the whole point of raspberry pi. Like a lowered/slammed truck that can’t carry anything, or a bicycle with 100 training wheels and a gas motor.

It’s like they’ve lost the plot.

It would be one thing if it was done by a user for fun, or otherwise was the exception to the rule. But having a $400 raspberry pi is ridiculous.

Sell pattern recognition to those who have none

Wtf who would pay that much for a fuckin raspberry poo

The entire point of raspberry pi is that they’re like $15 bucks for a bunch of cheap components. That’s why in every picture there’s no housing or anything. It’s just a $0.10 pcb and a few dollars here and there of components from the same mass produced factory that’s still producing the same usb ports and microcontrollers from old motherboards in 1999

Are you sure $385 isn’t for like two hundred of them? For like students?

You can also block just single users.

Blocking is temporary and one-way. It only means you don’t see them or their content. More of a “hide”, really.

At least that’s my understanding.

You can block users, communities, and instances (maybe only instances can block entire instances?).

There really aren’t a lot of hornyposting on here though. There’s basically zero OF and the only hornyposters are people doing it by hand, themselves, and are usually jokes, rather than pure thirst. Like I can name the only two users offhand that some people complain about, but if you really don’t like their content, you have all the power and right to just block them yourself.

There was also the nsfw instance, but I’m not sure if that even exists anymore. Last I saw years ago, it was basically only bots, and a few instances (incl mine) blocked it, so I literally don’t even know if it still exists.

Well, you got THIS far, so you’re doing a pretty good job understanding it so far.

Lemmy is made by communists for all of us. Don’t be a dick, remember the human, but be careful about the communists, a few of them are in this to cause a war that they think they’ll win.

Other than that, Lemmy and piefed are truly international, and you’re going to encounter a lot of diverse, real cross culture perspectives. A LOT of people REALLY FUCKING HATE AMERICANS. Like, REAAALLLLLY hate us… If you aren’t American, this is redundant, if you are American, don’t let them get to you because there are good people out there too that understand that everywhere is a mix and the entire point of talking online is to learn to accept each other and try to live together better.

Other than that, there’s a ton of nuance, a fuck ton of infighting, and you’ll just have to learn all of this as you go. Don’t be afraid to be different. Reddit was all about fitting in, this place is all about being true to yourself in an international space that isn’t corporate. I think it could shift that way, at some point, but due to the nature of how instances work, you won’t ever truly be banned unless you don’t fit in with your instance, in which you should probably change, anyway. Yourself or your instance, that is.

I dunno. Go wild. See what feels good. Pour one out for Sir Patrick Stewart, complain about Russians to Russians, complain about Americans to Americans, complain at the Chinese to the Chinese, air your grievances about a semi united kingdom, hornypost, drink milk, talk about how you like holding your phone while you poop, learn about open source software from the .ml users (those are communists), the gay stuff from my instance (those are the gays… Actually, there’s a LOT of gays on lemmy, not just us), try to remember which version of which community is which, or even start your own community and be a moderator of something neat just because you can.

Most mods on here are still used to the Reddit way, but are doing their best to not be. Everybody’s got strong opinions, some even have strong opinions about not having strong opinions!

Poopoo peepee kaka doodoo fuckfuck speckin ze deutsch at yo mama yahear?

Last I checked, that time started at least as far back as 2021

100% just a paywall

:c

Flock cameras in places is are gross. Blech.

That makes no sense. Did they really do that? Gorditas are/were wildly unpopular (except for the CGC), but it took so much less effort to warm those up than it did to deep fry it into a Chalupa.

Privacy, Eeyore.

You can even have an alternate exclamation by dropping the comma
