Due to ongoing federation issues I’ve temporarily moved to @ZeroCool@Slrpnk.net.
Alexandrite is my favorite Desktop UI. You can try it at:
a.lemmy.world
Or for other instances go to:
alexandrite.app
Millennials weren’t alive when this was made 😂
You think there weren’t any millennials alive in 1992? lol
Instead of being an ass, why don’t you explain how this is in any shape or form a useful time capsule?
No. I never made that claim so I have no obligation to defend it to some random dipshit on the internet.
Yeah, I understood this asinine point just fine the first time, thanks.
Yes. And?
It’s a silly little thing a kid’s TV network did 31 years ago for kids. Calm down.
CDs, including Please Hammer, Don’t Hurt ’Em by MC Hammer
Nice.
Normal people: Serling. Although it’s often understandably confused with ‘Sterling’ as that’s a more familiar word and sounds very similar.
Idiots: No, no, no, I am from a parallel universe.
Yep, life was simpler back when there were only six or seven bands on the internet. Vaguely punk sounding? Well that’s obviously Blink-182. Punk but with bagpipes? Dropkick Murphys. Dude with an acoustic guitar? Oh that’s Dave Matthews Band.
Third party client support. Specifically alternate web UI’s focused on desktop like Alexandrite because if I’m being honest here, I think the comment nesting in Lemmy’s offical web UI lacks enough distinction to be useful on desktop (its clearly optimized for mobile browsers). Following conversations can be frustrating on desktop. Without Alexandrite I’d most likely be a mobile app (Voyager) user only.
Edit: No, third party web front ends for reddit do not work anymore. Remember those pesky API changes that went into effect in July and were the entire reason the majority of us are on lemmy now? Yeah, that didn’t just kill off third party mobile apps.
I’d rather limit defederation unless it’s about something very clearcut
Alien.top is a spam instance. This is as “clearcut” a reason to defederate as it gets.

Agreed, screw the person running that instance. If I wanted to see the front page of reddit I’d go to reddit. They aren’t helping Lemmy grow, they’re just a spammer.
a 4 year residency at Johns Hopkins
I smoked pot with Johnny Hopkins… It was me, Johnny Hopkins, and Sloan Kettering… And they were blazin’ that shit up everyday!
It’s more like “being a plague rat or being a muskrat.”
I like to think if there were a dog-lemmy they’d be sharing this exact same meme and saying “humans really are the best.”
The face shopped into the photo belongs to the lead singer of an American metal band called Disturbed and “down with the Swiss Miss” is just a play on one of their most popular songs, “Down with the Sickness.” The title of my post is also meant to imitate his scatting vocal style in the song.
