Spanish guy, who likes open source software and has just discovered the fediverse (as of 28th of April, 2022). I like video games, and indie and retro music. I’m a student. I’m officially diagnosed with ADHD and ASD since January, 2023.
Kremlin polls indicate United Russia, the dominant political party in the Russian Federation, is predicted to gain 80 per cent of the vote in the four occupied regions.
Then why the elections if you already know the result beforehand?
Those who lie and justify their lies, either with or without more lies.
That doesn’t have to be a bad thing. I commented on posts that were weeks old or a month old. Reddit had this bad habit that everything older than 30 minutes was irrelevant already.
Sure, seeing old posts doesn’t help to create an image of activity. But don’t think that something old is irrelevant, unless it’s a news post.
It depends. I’m on two instances, sopuli and beehaw. Both of them are really welcoming and cool, and I can interact with people without worrying about being bullied or harassed or attacked by random trolls just because they don’t like what I say (and trust me, suffering those actions while being neurodivergent is way worse than suffering those actions while being neurotypical).
But I think that more than 70% of the content I see comes from one single instance. Excluding beehaw (they defederated that other instance, and I agree with that), I think that sopuli also has similar communities that are like abandoned or with low amount of content. That’s something I don’t like.
It depends on your struggles. In my case, medication is not enough to deal with executive dysfunction, and that’s why I’m waiting for therapy.
Untreated ADHD can come with depression in the long run, and it’ll be harder to treat, because instead of one issue, you have two issues.
Propaganda can be very powerful on people’s minds, unfortunately.
The thing is that I don’t have those issues on Lemmy, because I usually browse by /local, both on this server and on beehaw. But I had to block lemmy.world with my user on Kbin due to that problem you were pointing out. And miraculously, I can see content from Kbin, lemmy.ml, blahaj, beehaw sopuli, and so on, because there is no way to browse only local content on Kbin as it can be done on Lemmy.
Prove it, because I only see US-centric posts while browsing /all.
And no, America is not the US.
Some instances removed the downvote button. And I think it’s a good decision, personally speaking. If you like it, you upvote it. If you don’t like it, move on. Less toxicity, and less emotional damage when someone has rejection sensitiveness.
No, it doesn’t.
