Neither ever stopped being imperialist, and they're both part of the imperial core, so it's no surprise they're going to back Israel. Fuck them.

Yikes, i didn't know lemvotes can see a user's every single vote 🫠 even i can't do that with my admin powers. Sounds creepy, to say the least but :shrug: not the important thing here.

I'll tell an LW admin about this. Votes can't be removed, but they can be stopped.

Well, you won’t believe this.

THREE WHOLE INSTANCES HAVE BEEN MADE, to purely mass downvote all your posts.

Congratulations, sir; that’s not something i see everyday lmao.

Getting ethnic/country specific subreddits onto here (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

submitted 2 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hello,

I've been thinking of this for a long time, but have there been any serious attempts on getting the subreddits of your ethnic group / country on switching to lemmy?

Feels pretty lonely on lemmy, since there are only 6 (including me, and afaik) arabs/1 other person from my country. And i'm guessing it can feel barren for some in the same way.

Would it be a good idea to go on subreddits like r/denmark, r/estonia, r/arabs, r/kurdistan (for kurds), etc and promote lemmy? What do you think would be the response? What communities would we do? Is it a good idea?

Me

I've never realized it could get this bad. I've always been miserable my whole life, but i feel like i've hit a new low. The combination of middle eastern politics, toxic environment and stressful worklife is such a toxic one...

I took a day off today, because i was so anxious that all i could do is lie on the couch and pray it passes. Didn't have anyone to help me, since everyone i knew was asleep (i wake up very early) or i didn't want to annoy them. I felt like i just wanted to jump off the building to stop the pain.

Then i took zoloft a couple of minutes ago. I'm not having a panic attack anymore (hence me creating this post) but i still feel so shitty. I've had a horrible day before it even started, and i have a huge backlog of work that i have to finish in two days. Usually i forget to take zoloft, since i felt like it doesn't have an effect at all on me (maybe i'll make another post about this later) But i guess it helps a little.

Bah, rant over.

Sudan: Dozens killed by RSF on 'ethnic basis' in Darfur (www.middleeasteye.net)

Sudan's paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) killed 56 civilians in a series of attacks on a town in Darfur along the road to the city of el-Fasher.

Activists from a local resistance committee said the killings in Um Kadadah were carried out on Thursday and Friday "on an ethnic basis".

Um Kadadah, which lies around 180km east of el-Fasher - the last city in Darfur held by the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) - was recaptured by the RSF on Thursday.

The RSF has been at war with the SAF since April 2023 in a conflict that has displaced more than 10 million people and left over 12 million facing high levels of acute food insecurity.

Minecraft on linux is so good, genuinely just objectively better than windows full stop. Roblox is a shit platform that exploits children so not too much of a loss there tbh (though there's sober if you insist on it)

4-days account describes Lemmy as toxic on /r/RedditAlternatives by fxomt in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 51 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I was going to question what makes you think they're far right but

If their experience is anything like mine, it’s populated by mostly far left wing Americans who were banned from Reddit for being too extreme.

Where are the centrist and right leaning spaces? As far as I can tell, they’re almost completely empty.

I agree, Reddit is massively extreme left politic trolls. The ones that have left reddit for lemmy because of corporealism is even further down that rabbit hole. Honestly social media is just a political psyop at this point.

😐 God, i remember why i left reddit now. It's just a circlejerk of racists thinking they're "progressive"

Graze for Mastodon – Firefox Extension by fxomt in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 53 points 3 months ago

Personally, i don't trust giving full access of an account to a seemingly obscure extension, that is not open source.

And clearly the dev has no intention to make it open source. This was the form on me uninstalling it.

Duckduckgo? That's just a search engine, no?

I agree on the rest of the parts tho
