Yes an alternative. One of a few but arguably the one with the most potential. It’s just you seemed to imply it was an intended replacement, that’s all. No sweat.

No it’s not a replacement fabricated for that purpose. It looks similar because the structure is a sensible one that makes sense for its design. It has no relationship to Reddit other than the fact that it’s a good alternative.

Yeah I know. Was just pointing it out. No big deal.

Don’t know if you’re joking but this is not supposed to be a clone of reddit. I’m not bothered really I was just being nitpicky. I mean, of it’s all the same, may as well use the right word.

They’re called communities on Lemmy, not subs. And if there isn’t one yet, feel free to make one! This platform is young still, and needs people to start filling the void.

This stuff is truly fascinating as well as mystifying.

ROFL thanks for this; gave me a good laugh 😀😃😄😃😁🤪

Hubnob?

What part of “untouchable” do some people still just not comprehend?

I guarantee in 4 years Trump will try to name a successor instead of holding an election.

No. He will not name a successor, he will remain president. Either he will eliminate elections or he will do like his idol, Putin. Arrest and murder anyone who dares oppose him.

He is an extreme narcissist and egotist. Like extreme extreme. He cannot see a future where he’s not on the throne.

He won the popular vote, but that’s the majority of voters, not the majority of people, right?

Right, the rest are just so lazy and consumed by apathy that they could not be bothered to vote when THESE were the stakes. I think we can confidently rule them out for any advocacy for our freedom.

He doesn’t have to. He can issue an executive order and within hours, a military regimen takes their data center.

Seriously! I just dont understand how so many people can just overlook this. Honestly they have openly approved it all. They never again have a right to expect justice for themselves, because they approved rampant criminal behavior in about the most formal way.

This is truly sickening. Clearly he can get away with anything just as he has always known. I just cannot figure it out. How can people do this? It truly makes me sure our species stands no chance.

Actually some people were trying to help me with a problem on a Linux system. It’s weird but makes sense that most of these fringe tech platforms are used by people using Linux to talk about Linux.

It’s like ham radios… lots of folks talking about their ham radios. And their plans for their ham radios. And asking about ham radios.

Well yes, for someone with OCD there are a plethora of behaviors that aren’t the same for them as for ordinary people. I think that would go without saying.

Ah.

Nearly every activity should be preceded by and followed by a good handwashing. Keeps you well.

Is there any reason people still use lead solder? I mean… I use silver for jewelry soldering and I know silver and copper can both easily work well for electronics , so in what application is lead necessary?

I can firsthand attest to this. Big time. It’s the one thing I dislike.

I also would not think of it as filth, but I also love its absence in Lemmy. Because that stuff acts like an STD and spreads and grows, and I’d rather just leave it out.
