  • I hate the state of our world as it is right now. It’s been itching inside my head for quite some time alreadu. It probably is somewhat political, because it probably has something to do with capitalism, but I can’t understand how a population that has never been so productive still has to work their ass off in order to simply eat and lay in a bed safely. The more I think about it, the less sense it makes and the more I hate how natural it is for seemingly everyone around me.

    I’m not one of these people, despite also not being wealthy at all, I have a job, I don’t get paid top dollar but I have a safe house, food on the table and I can do a little bit more with my money, and yes, that’s it, EVERYTHING seems to revolve around money.






  • Money belts are coming back, but not the old style. We’re wearing it across the chest, like a bag. They’re even making money belts with more of an adjustable belt so that you can use however you want/feel better. Basically, becomes a bag.

    I really wish it would be more mainstream. I always wore shorts with more pockets because fuck I didn’t like holding shit in my hand. Recently, shorts with pockets haven’t really been a thing, so I gave the money belt a chance and I really like its utility. Nothing inside my short pockets anymore.






  • People on Twitter are already trying it because Twitter has been shit.

    Someone in my circle created their account and already deleted it. Their explanation was a FAQ screenshot for Threads saying that it doesn’t matter who you follow or who follows you, the algorithm will show or hide things from you based on what they think you will enjoy and there’s no way around it and you also can’t sort by new.

    I mean, are companies really paying attention to user needs? Lol








  • Maybe people are concerned that smaller instances may shutdown more easily?

    Therefore, people would lose their account and be required to create another in another instance.

    lemmy.world still has open registration, but it might not last forever. I recall the admins saying that doesn’t escalate horizontally yet, so they can run it only in one machine and keep bumping its hardware, but it has hard limit on cloud platforms (if that’s the case). Besides, even if they have a home server, completely self hosted, things get more and more expensive as they improve the server.

    So, it MIGHT be a reality that at some point the bigger instances will close registration at some point, and people are running to create their accounts on these, as it will probably be “safer”.

    At some point, it might me easier/possible to make lemmy escalate horizontally, and then it becomes a non issue, but I figure larger instances would still be preferred.
