I think you did not get what I was saying. If an instance is blocking another one for illegal content or whatnot then of course do that for e everyonem threads is neither illegal nor have they represented any kind of threat to Lemmy or Mastodon or any other part of the fediverse but Lemmy acts as if Meta is going to destroy every single fediverse thing with non-existent tools and strategies in 0.2s after they start federating both ways.

I already see myself setting up my own instances so I can rest in peace from the bullshit that’s repeated on here. Might implement my own regex filter just to block out this bullshit.

Edit: just scrolled 3 other posts preemptively hating for nonsense. Im just gonna leave this shithole altogether. Bye guys!

Sure, absolutely the same. Definitely not wrong in the slightest…

Great how everyone saw one post from Mosseri a week ago and decided to just ignore all following posts. The one-sided federation atm is TEMPORARY. They will fully federate in the upcoming months.

I’m not part of the fediverse to still have to maintain 20 accounts. In the end I want one account, ideally from somewhere like Mastodon, to rule them all. And your circlejerk throws a wrench into it for absolutely no reason other than aluminum foil bullshit.

For me it’s the other way around. Lemmy.world blocking threads for exactly no reason except to make a circlejerk happy is a reason for me leave Lemmy altogether, not just this instance. So far yall just show me that here only the “I want to special” crowd exists. Doesn’t even matter which instance.

Hating on Threads for no reason is the circlejerk of Lemmy.

The people not giving a shit about these constructed “worries” of some FOSS-Linux-“please don’t join us, we want to be special” crowd.

Again, if YOU don’t like it, block it. Let me and the silent majority just enjoy this platform, WITH threads people, whether you feel attacked by that or not. Just to make sure everyone can follow: YOU block threads FOR YOURSELF, you do not force that shitty decision on everyone else.

And give me examples, actual proof, that threads is a cesspool. So far I’m not seeing it, I only see crying and bitching about "what if"s. That is just pure hatred. Lemmy is a far worse place because of all this. It’s seriously making me consider to leave ans go back to something where people are actually welcoming, like Threads.

Edit: I’m still missing evidence against Threads. Either there is none or yall haven’t even visited the dn thing before trying to “reason” about it.

And another attempt at blanket hating on a platform for no reason. Be more original, people.

Edit: if YOU don’t like it, sure block it. But don’t force your backwards decision on everyone else.

The EU alone is about 450 million people. There’s more countries in Europe than in the EU. I think you got something wrong.

Disabling JavaScript is not a solution. You will break at least 80% of websites.

Some people need a high-five. With a billiard table. In the face.

He owns 1.38% - a terribly far cry from being a majority shareholder.

He stepped down as CEO and all involvement in active development in 2008 even. This has nothing left of Bill Gates, not even strategy-wise.

RAM usage is RAM usage, and besides the allocation still being awful and you probably having less RAM available in a heavy task, this means substantial power consumption, that costs money.

Unused RAM is wasted RAM. Even if it’s just the OS keeping apps on memory for faster launches. If you do need heavy RAM for a task your OS is clever enough to reshuffle things.

Used RAM does use more electricity but that is so neglible it’s a non-issue and no argument.

Of my 32 GB at least 26 GB are constantly in use.

While I don’t agree with what Google does, they want to remove third-party cookies entirely next year. So it’s indeed a replacement, not supplemental.

SF-UR, K-DST (GTA SA), SoulwaxFM and LSUR (GTA 5) will always be my go to 👌

I still have it from time to time that Windows has to install a driver for something benign like a thumb drive. Not always, though. And yes, the driver is fixed to the physical port. Using a different port reinstalls the same driver again.

Experienced this exact behavior on Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11.

Finally some sane voice. People don’t seem to think 2cm in front of their nose.

Anything that is Facebook/Meta is in its own container for me. That way they can “track” as much as they want, they won’t see new or even accurate Info.
