I saw that Trump and Musk are muted when not signed in, but for obvious reasons I haven’t done onboarding for a while. Neat stuff.
I’ll just add that setting up custom filters is also easy as pie.
Not ideologically pure.

I have had it with these motherfuckin’ snakes in this motherfuckin’ government!
No worries! And don’t let the negativity in this thread get to you - it’s nothing personal, people are just convinced you’re not real. If anything, I guess that’s a weird compliment of sorts. The best one could hope for coming from the internet, perhaps.
Over on Reddit, people posting pictures of some good looking person and asking “am I ugly” is a pretty common way of farming karma. Whatever the fuck karma is, that’s beyond the point here.
Reverse image search is a way to find where pictures have been posted before using Google. Here’s the search for your image. It appears Google and Reddit has gotten bad to the point where they say your picture was posted 7 years ago, even though this would appear to be false.
Combine the two, and there’s a perfect storm where people assume you’re some 50 year old guy with a weird kink. Sorry about that.
…but when you click those links in google reverse image search, they show completely different people. Except the one posted an hour ago. I have no idea what is going on here, just seems weird to me.

I was a patient kid in school, teachers would pair me up with difficult kids and expect me to fix them without ever telling me that was their strategy. My patience wore real thin.
If the teachers are pushing for this, telling them that she’s approaching a breaking point and that this is not sustainable might help. Or it might not, teachers are only human and who knows what is going on in their heads.
I have also never heard of this before, but these look really interesting! The battery usage is fine in its own right, but my scale always seems to run out of power at the worst moment. I usually cook without measuring, so when I take it out it’s because its services are needed, and I guess the battery tends to slowly drain in the cupboard.
I’ll keep this in mind for if/when my scale breaks - or if I need a Christmas gift idea some year! :)
If you want this as a platform to socialize, I think the best thing you can do is to follow your interests, see if there are communities in what you’re interested in here already, and if there are not see if you can get one started.
One community I find particularly inspiring is !superbowl@lemmy.world, initiated by a single user (@anon6789@lemmy.world) who is making an amazing effort and now attracting quite a bit of attention from a bunch of followers.
But of course, it can also be challenging to build a community, as well as time consing - I have to admit I don’t really interact that much with online communities myself these days.
I have a tendency to give off a very unprofessional :| during these meetings, but that’s reserved for IRL only.
I only ever use :) myself. Can’t think of a work email where :( seems appropriate.
I think, on your end, my user name probably shows as just “cabbage”, not “@cabbage”. Which indicates it’s a user name (not exclusive), not a handle (exclusive).
Similarly, OP shows up to me as “Aurora (she/her)” rather than “aurora_glamour”, which is her handle. Piefed still displays the instance though.
It might not be ideal, as it makes imposters possible. Then again, that has always been the case by using visually identical Unicode characters, so it’s not entirely a new problem.
I never cared much about Reddit, but then again, I’m not using Lemmy either. So maybe you’re right.
Welcome here! It’s more focused on public discussion and less on individuals here, but there are some friendly communities around here as well. I hope you’ll like it, but it might not indeed be the best platform for developing proper friendships. :)
Sweet user name!
More on topic, the 30s are messed up indeed. Or maybe it’s just that I’m now in my 30s and the world is fucked. In either case I’m not a big fan.
ActivityPub is absolutely not suited for private communication. I guess you could in theory transfer encrypted content over AP as well, but it’s not what it is designed for and it generally makes little sense for content in a public forum like this. I don’t think anyone thinks otherwise.
This is not what is proposed though. For E2EE, Rimu suggests the following:
Encrypt all user communications, private messages, and sensitive data
So to keep user data encrypted on the server, as well as looking into finding a way to encrypt private messages. I think it’s hard to argue this wouldn’t be at least a minor change for the better, giving instance administrators less insight into the private data of the users (and thereby also making them less vulnerable to law enforcement).
Of course this wouldn’t make PieFed or Lemmy or whatever a good replacement for Signal. It is not supposed to be. It’s a public forum. But it can still do its best to protect the identity of the users in this public forum, even with the inherent limitations of the format.
Just to clarify, you are aware that OP is the main developer of PieFed?
Chances are that PieFed more or less fits his idea of what he wants, considering that’s what he designed it to do.
That looks like a PieFed bug - the leading # should normally not be parsed into a headline in Markdown unless it is followed by a space. I’ll give @rimu@piefed.social a heads up!
That said, there’s every reason to scream at this point. I wish all Americans seeking to flee the country the best of luck.
This is crazy to me. I have never seen it before, it seems incredibly weird to me, but your evidence is hard to argue against.
It seems to me Blahaj is a particularly good instance for these things - it’s a moderation priority bordering on a raison d’être over there.
