33 here.

At least I get along with them really well

Yes. He is with Jesus now

Because I hate Reddit

I’m new, where can I read an explanation for what’s going on here

She’s got nothing left now.

Does it change anything at all that it’s just a meme and not a real description of life?

Does that change anything at all for you?

Trump is going to have a lot of American blood on his hands…

This is either the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen or it has some use for someone well above my pay grade.

I appreciate it.

Ah ok. Thanks.

I understand it takes a while to federate, but do they federate for all instances?

Does the name change only show there or is it supposed to accompany the post as well?

Edit: Never mind, I see what you’re saying now.

Sugar…

It’s definitely slower than Reddit.

Just a couple things to keep in mind from what I’ve seen:

If you notice a community hasn’t had a post in a couple months, don’t assume it’s dead. I’ve posted in places that haven’t had activity in months and gotten several replies relatively quickly.

A lot of Lemmy is news and memes. So you might have to get used to embracing that if you aren’t already. Going to “all” and sorting by new is what I mostly do here.

I was kinda sad too, but the further away I get from the time I was banned the more manageable it is. Just give it time 👌

I got perm banned for supposedly breaking Reddit’s rule 3.

Basically it just says you can’t post sexualized photos of people without their permission.

The photos I shared “without permission”, however were of popular, commercially available adult actresses specifically on a subreddit cetered around just that. These people are so popular they appear in memes on SFW subreddits. They have massive subreddits centered around them. Of all the NSFW content allowed on reddit, it is among the most allowed.

The only exception was that I think one of the photos I posted was OF content or something that was intended to be behind a paywall. That’s the only guess I have. But even this person shows up all over the place on reddit from people who are definitelt not her.

I won’t deny that if that’s the case I was being careless. But I tried to appeal, and was denied. I can’t get over the fact that supposedly a human looked at that and said that what I did was tantamount to taking a creep shot of someone in public and then posting it to reddit.

I’m fine with never using reddit again, but that had me scared I had found myself in some sort of serious trouble…

Ya know, it’s funny…

When Alex Pretti was shot there were a lot of debates about to what extent it was his own fault. Again and again MAGA republicans would bring up things like “Well, his family said he was starting to act weird” or “Well, he kicked a tail light out of a ICE vehicle a week before…”. Anything to make him seem like a worse person than he way, as if it should negate any sympathy felt for him.

Well, here’s someone saying the ICE officer in this case was not a good person; that he was unstable, and had violent tendencies. What will MAGA say about him I wonder? Will they remain consistent and say: “Yes, it makes perfect sense that an unstable person with a gun cannot be trusted in these high intesnity situations. He is not a hero”?

I’m not counting on it, personally.

They know that, too. They don’t even care to hide it anymore.

This is the most relatable thing I’ve seen all week.

I’ve never had use for one.

But I did spend some time learning German and was able to hold conversations to an extent. Was interesting and fun and made some friends (they wanted me to stop trying so hard and just speak English lol).

What a way to remember Lincoln…

If this level of carelessness happened around a confederate monument republicans would lose their shit.
