I don’t see a way to do it in Voyager’s settings, but if you go to lemmy.world in a web browser and go to your settings, there is a “Block” tab at the top next to settings. Go to that and you can block users, instances, or communities.

Yeah I agree with you there.

I’m kind of on Google’s side here. Especially during covid, chatting in IM essentially replaced hallway chatter. Nobody would want all of their verbal communications in an office being recorded on the record. Having IMs be off the record by default seems reasonable to me.

Loose rhymes with noose. I can’t think of a word that’s spelled and pronounced like lose so you have me there.

choose lose cruise booze

all rhyme lol

It is a little strange that they are both holding the ends of the cigarette that is supposedly lit with all that smoke.

Oh I definitely email at work. I meant in my personal life. Like, I can’t remember the last time I emailed a friend or family member. But yeah I email at work, or for customer support, or to businesses and whatnot.

That’s a good point. I guess if I’m in the situation where I have a lot to say; I’d rather just talk on the phone with someone. Now that I think of it, I feel like the telephone replaced physical letters before email even came along. But, I do highly respect the long-form communication of letters and email. It’s just kind of rare these days.

I thought this was a mini-pc to compete with the mac mini, until I realized its streaming only. I’d much rather cough up the extra $250 for the insane jump in power that the mac mini gives you.

I don’t remember the last time I actually emailed someone I knew as a form of communication. I forward newsletters to my wife sometimes. The culture of texting, where you can take your time to respond (within a day or two), has kind of made email obsolete.
