Okay… what’s the difference between a beautiful and highly produced radio program and a podcast?

UNCANNY on BBC4

Tell me that someone has mentioned resting this system with a Linux distro? Wouldn’t that resolve the problem?

People can have a rich spiritual life and not believe in religion.

Try some organic food.

I will spend it educating people that we write fifteen dollars as $15.

Green flags:

Their smile.

Their obvious kindness.

Their big heart.

They make you laugh.

They drive.

They ask you to drive.

They have friends that you like.

Your friends like them.

They read novels.

The play a musical instrument.

They speak another language.

They can ride a bike faster than you can and you think you’re kind of hot shot about that.

They openly tell you that some of your habits are unsavory. You know they are. How courageous of them to mention it.

They like you anyway.

They can make chocolate chip cookies from memory and do like for no reason.

You like their family.

They don’t like your family but then again neither do you.

34 years later the two of you not only love one another but find things to like about one another every single day.

Perfect solution really

Not sure this reply will get seen by the kind people who have helped explain this situation to me but I just want to say “thank you”. And I get it. The ethos here is the diversity and the federation — Reddit subs were easily corrupted by power hungry turds… anyway… there were a lot of thoughtful replies and I appreciate all that.

I still feel new here but I’m pleased to be welcomed by a lot of very thoughtful and patient people.

You get me. Yes — exactly.

I can barely figure all this out and my goal is exactly where you are talking about — to make adopting Lemmy as easy as possible to attract as many users away from the corporate social media as possible.

I want all corporate social media flat lined.

I suppose that I can personally tolerate same-theme communities across multiple instances. I feel like I was a late arrival at Reddit and when I grasped it’s potential, it became an important source of information, entertainment and community for me. Then it imploded.

But a lot of people are still over there and I guess I hope to see it flatlined completely.

So I hope that Lemmy can be as easy to use as possible.

But this thread has persuaded me that redundant groups are healthy. I just hope new users come here and abandon all corporate social media.

There are literally twice as many Palestinians living abroad in Europe and the rest of the world than live in isreal. It’s a tightly knit community even so. People that stay there are making this choice for other reasons than that they can’t travel.

I’m not sure it helps to say this.

But something motivated the two million Palestinians who have left to leave.

This has been going on for decades. There are thriving palistinian communities in California, New York, several other US states and in various countries. It just seems that there are a lot of folks living good lives abroad. My question is, considering that this kind of horrific behavior by Israel was inevitable based on their hideous previous behavior, why haven’t they all left before now?

Why do they stay there?

Hi @Illecors — so, I found the group you shared the link to and I made a comment there.

I do not see the comment.

Another member of this thread also said they had trouble posting.

We are new to this.

Can you guide us regarding how to use the sub before we begin moderating please?

So that kind of worked.

I’m trying to learn how to use Pixel Fed so I can intentionally link to my photos.

I’m going to go and see if I can find our new typewriter group to join that party. I’ll post a recent acquisition if I can.

I too have a Hermes 2000! It’s a little tank!

Regarding photos. Let me see if I can upload one here after allowing Memmy permission:

Okay… looks like is sent the image to Imgur and maybe it will show up when I click Submit

Well… perhaps we’ll be the first two to start the conversation at Lemmy.

Thank you — I think I’m still finding my way — but I shall contact you when I’ve got more experience here.
