Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

Horses will also opportunistically eat meat if it's available. Are horses carnivores?
Omnivores apparently, same as pandas.
Same as most things on earth, hell even pure herbivores have been known to eat their babies to recover the lost protein and such.
I can’t think of any animal on earth that is pure veggie.
Even hummingbirds pick small insects over nectar whenever possible.
Weird, it’s almost like life is complex and doesn’t fit neatly into boxes like we would like
You're right, nothing on earth is a herbivore, because everything can eat meat. By the same logic, nothing is a carnivore, because everything, cats included, can eat plants. Therefore, cats are not carnivores. They're omnivores, as you say.
I also don’t know that there are any pure carnivores, I’m pretty sure a great white would try to eat seaweed if it was starving
