(2) The US has sales tax which is VAT in a trenchcoat.
(3) The US dumps its corn below cost and saturates foreign markets due to massive corn subsidies.
(6) Try buying a toilet that uses more than 1.6 gallons per flush in the US. Oh wait, you can’t, it’s banned.
(8) US companies have transshipped Chinese goods ever since Trump’s 2018 trade war
Which one will kill me faster?
I don’t agree with this particular usecase. Because I’ve personally experienced, people who shun “negativity” meaning they just completely ignore people’s suffering which often adds a devastating layer of invisibility to oppression. But probably hopefully this isn’t your case and it’s more about “doom and gloom” than people’s reality of suffering.
But anyways, I do agree that blocklists are probably a feature that lemmy needs.
I think it’s also easy to misinterpret something on one post. A lot of times something that looked bigoted or dodgy opinion was just poorly done sarcasm or something.
There is a voyager frontend on web. But I think it’s only a mobile view https://vger.app/posts/lemm.ee/all
Also, voyager lets you tag users which is a godsend.
If I notice someone who is unnecessarily rude, dodgy opinions, bigoted or something, I add a tag, and if I see it is constant repetitive behaviour, I’ll block them.
Also Germany has one of the largest populations in europe, and they tend to speak English very well unlike France/Italy/Spain.
If Lemmy is mainly made of western countries with high proportions of anglophone speakers, the prevalence of German speakers isn’t really a suprise,
Lemmy,blahaj,zone is run by Ada, who is a woman
Yeah. I don’t like hot, because it’s only posts from an hour or two ago. Active is generally better in that sense.
Depends how hard you’re willing to try. (/s, for legal reasons)
Okay. I see what happened lol. Someone who is instance banned from my instance first posted it on this community. Then someone crossposted to another community. Since the OP was instance banned, for me the crosspost read as the OP, and then I crossposted it to the community it was originally posted in 😭.
(This is the ugly side of federation).
You are literally linking to the post I crossposted.
Do some lemmy clients not distinguish crossposts?
Edit: I’m wrong, see comments below.

There’s no metro to new jersey side? Is that a state lines thing or a convenience thing?
Like the metro map only shows the right side of this urban area
I want to live in a place where life isn’t a game with winner or losers, but a fun experience to share with those you love.
Many is overstating it.
They defederated from World and Sh.itjust.works.
Misandry? I’m a man and feel fine on Blahaj.
A lot of people on blahaj are feminine men, or transfem, that may make you feel uncomfortable if you’re an old school “men will be men” patriarchal type person, but generally it’s a great crowd to be surrounded by.
I’ve seen far more misogyny on LW than misandry anywhere on lemmy.
Lemmy.Blahaj.Zone (since it has downvotes disabled) and being mindful of the communities I subscribe to really helps.
On lemmy.world you won’t see beehaw communities which are much chiller. blahaj lets you see beehaw communities.
Yep. Not to mentioned permanently AI astroturfed, and the politics went full on hard authoritarian and Zionist.
I used to mod 2 communities with over 300k members.
Exactly. There are endangered birds and amphibians who call my garden home. I do not want cats going in there and killing them for sport.
Get a catio! Don’t destroy native wildlife.
