I don’t believe in Trumpgret.

Their hearts haven’t changed, they just don’t like being hated.

We are seeing this a lot with podcast/youtube people, like Alex Jones.

It doesn’t matter what they say now, they begged for him to be elected. They chose him and are responsible.

I can’t say for certain this is where I saw it, but I googled “Trump Iran Copy Pasta” and this came up

I copied it from elsewhere - but I love your idea! Someone should definitely catalog and archive this

I can’t take credit I copy/pasted- but everyone should see it!

It’s always a good idea to mock him. If he can’t handle it he is free to resign.

Thank you! I copied the comment from elsewhere, I appreciate your additions!

I agree with you. Religion is the seed from which all those additional horrors can grow.

Fork found in kitchen.

She was a great guest - and it was really cool to hear the “mastadonverse” shoutout haha.

While not 100% her final point, one of the greatest disappointments of the Internet has been watching rot and crumble into just 5 websites, each just posting screenshots/videos from the other four.

I got banned after 15 years for being pro-choice.

It’s sort of bittersweet (more sweet though, as the past few years the site has just been miserable for me), but I’m sort of proud I went out standing up for women’s rights.

Redlib

Ooo, this is the first I’ve heard of this but it looks really cool and promising! Get all the info and art without all the bots / bad users. I do miss the NIN commenters, but I’m also in their discord and there’s plenty of community to be found there!

Agreed. I remember leaving MySpace for Facebook (shit I even remember Xanga before MySpace).

At some point, it felt like the internet just got smaller, became 5 websites. And on those 5 websites, you’d find something like: a picture of a tweet posted to reddit and the tweet is about an instagram post"

Really disheartening as someone who came up with the “wild west” internet (which definitely had its issues, but it felt like human issues, not corporate issues)

My disappointment in the US continues to be consistent and expected.

Yup! I was a part of the mass Digg exodus.

I figured that would happen again with reddit, but to my disappointment the internet is a much different place than it used to be.

I remember /r/AskReddit being THE spot, and it was great to read on the go since it was just text. All the novelty accounts were awesome, RamblesOffTopic being a favorite of mine haha.

Indeed!!

As a side tangent, I used to get so mad on old forums when someone would update their avatar lol I didn’t recognize names, I recognized their picture. So if they changed they might as well be a new user until I recognized we’ve spoken before, haha.

I think they must be - though I can’t figure out which one, haha.

I can’t figure out how to do it via the website, or Voyager / Mlem on iOS.

I think there was a big shift for reddit in 2016 after they bought (and then shut down…) AlienBlue and then launch their official app. That moment it felt like when the number of users just exploded, but with that, the quality of posts (and average age of the user) dropped.

Lemmy/the fediverse reminds me of 2010-2015 reddit (which is a good thing!)

Agreed! I’ve definitely got my eye on them for my next GPU upgrade (someday)
