Look at out this way. Either they are desperate. Or were significant enough to bother spamming?

Heh, while religion isn’t required for that. It’s impossible to argue that it doesn’t help with it. Putting faith in anything and turning off critical thinking is always a recipe for disaster.

How is wanting to be equal supremacist?

If you want to run a public business, the social contract has always been that you serve the public.

Claiming that men/boys need to be separated because “they can’t control themselves” only enables the incel type behaviors. As well as belittling men. Because as a cis man, I certainly have no issue respecting a woman. Or any issue focusing on other things when they’re around. If men and boys were more familiar with interacting with women, they likely wouldn’t be bitter incels. Unable to understand why no woman wants to be around them. Like, literally.

Anyone offering easy answers to complex questions should be suspect. And that does largely incriminate all religious groups around the world. They often espouse seemingly decent and benign ideologies. But unfortunately the mindset that latches on to those things, idealogues; are the danger. Even if the ideology themselves aren’t necessarily.

Lemmy.ml and programming.dev likely have the instance blocked due to its history with right-wing trolls. World does not. Therefore it works here. Lemmy ml doesn’t like the competition. Programming.dev doesn’t like the drama

Many. They are considered a spiritual successor to the right-wing troll instance of explodingheads.com. just consider for a moment. Which a group of people think causing chaos is hilarious?

Have you tried Picard? For tagging under Linux there’s hardly a better easier app

You just posted it to a server hosted on linux. You use Linux friend. One of us one of us gooble gobble one of us.

Looks like a porters/balloon chair.

You and I often disagree. But not today. Well said.

Ah, yes yes that old chestnut. Everyone else is the problem not you. People have legitimate problems with your instance and its administrators. Don’t pretend for a moment that if server focused on a different authoritarian ideology opposed to yours was the host. That you wouldn’t object either, despite the hypocrisy. You’re on Lemmy.ml not Lemmy.org. At least the rest of us can be consistent in our stance.

If the instance is focused around defending and enabling our fascists. Then everyone should object the same. That it just exists in the US isn’t the same thing and besides the point.

As others have said, being diagnosed isn’t going to change your life. You will always be you. The only thing different will be that you will have a better understanding of yourself. Why certain things bother you or are stressful. And perhaps how to better deal with them. You might still have to struggle with social situations. But now you will know why. And others might too, and have understanding for it. Rather than think you mean something else by it. Which honestly can be a little life-changing in and of itself ironically.

I have not been on Reddit for 2 years or more. That’s how it’s always worked for years before that even. As someone who had an account there from the 2000s all through the 2010s.

So you are either misremembering or simply mistaken. I don’t like that model myself. Because it can be abused as much as it can stop abuse. Easily allowing someone to block anyone who has or might dissent to them. Helping them spread misinformation, giving it a false sense of acceptance or at least no vocal pushback. Since they couldn’t just block people that down voted but never commented.

While that is true. It can still bury or hide valuable discussion. Not that this advocates for bidirectional blocking. But it would be nice if there were some method or mechanism to look for people doing such behaviors and weight their inputs less.

I’ve seen banal and innocuous comments from myself and whole chains including others get down voted for no real apparent reason. Personally I see that and I choose to smile. Knowing that that person is so seething and ineffectual that that is the best they can figure out to do. But not everyone sees it that way. It’s definitely something that will have to be tackled at some point if the system is going to grow. Because whether or not you agree that it’s manageable now. It certainly won’t be if there is a huge growth spurt.

Your projecting. I literally said in the donation thread that I don’t care if they run their own political server in their own free time with their own resources. It doesn’t matter whether or not I agree with it. What matters is that they want to tell us that we must contribute to their hobby and political crusade. They can make all the poor life choices they want. They just can’t include me or anyone else in it.

Then you’re going to be limited to SMB generally because of windows. If you didn’t need Windows NFS is always the superior choice. But only the pro version of Windows has any NFS support.

Just getting started pretty much any hardware will do. One of the best most accessible ways of doing it is something like a cheap Raspberry Pi computer even two gigabytes of memory is enough to get started. You won’t necessarily need the bigger ones. But generally more tends to be better. Combined with some of the more purpose built OS images for things like open media vault or own cloud. It’s a pretty easy and low bar for entry.

After that it really just depends on your interest, needs, and comfort levels. You could just as easily go into eBay and buy a used $100 E-Waste business Tower. It will give you a bit more swap ability and upgradability where you can add things like 2.5 or 10 gigabit networking if you absolutely need faster. A better method of organizing and mounting storage physically. And a few other amenities. As well as some more options software wise. But if you are really new to this. And you really want to do something a bit more DIY that you control as opposed to something like a Synology Nas. It’s hard to go wrong starting with something like a Raspberry Pi.

Just make sure to keep up on your three two one. Three different copies of your data, on two different types of media, with at least one of them stored off site.

First you need to specify a bit more on what you mean by file server. Are you looking for a network attached storage for home use, or remote use as well? Or are you talking something like a seed box for torrenting Etc. What general software environment will you be working with and what others are you comfortable with.

Lol to accuse you of not liking Lemmy as a platform. It doesn’t get much more strawman. Lol you’re one of the most frequent posters I see on Lemmy in general 😝

Nutomic himself has quite a history with real shitty takes and horrible stances. Including transphobia Etc.

Then there is said flagship instance. It’s run as a leninist Vanguard fiefdom and Echo chamber. Not a development hub. Its lemmy.ml and not lemmy.org for a reason. Much of the most egregious moderation not being done by moderators but administrators. All directly under and at nutomic’s discression. Which people are well within their right to object to. Especially being told their donations must go towards enabling it.

There are a ton of devs out there with shitty politics. But it’s most of them are smart/mature enough to keep them separate.
