That’s awesome, I didn’t know about that.

OK, I’ll stay posted for the new site!

I’m relieved to hear you’ll still be running your instance despite these issues! Are you thinking of potentially moving the Literature Cafe forums to Sublinks?

I definitely hear you on the moderation difficulties… with the Fediverse being as far-reaching as it is, good moderation tools are essential and it seems like Lemmy simply doesn’t have these available.

How would you rate your coziness level on a scale of 1 to 10?

Thanks for sharing photos of your adorable cats :)

Glad to be of service!

@I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world It looks great.

Great photo. It gives me vibes of !liminalspace@lemmy.world as well.

@I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world Lovely depth of field, is it your photo?

Excellent choice, I wonder if the original Italian would be even better!

He looks very comfy. 🥰

What is your favourite recipe to cook or prepare? (Drinks included)

That’s a good point.

Hmm, that’s a great point. It reminds me of fandom groups where most people are just trying to have fun and enjoy the fan content, but then a vocal group of unpleasant people will also designate themselves part of the fandom and damage its public image.
In that situation, the only thing that really seems to fix the public image of the group is having an authoritative leader (such as a creator of the original work, or a fandom conference organizer) making a public statement like “We do not condone persecution, we support the right to abortion, LGBT+ people are welcome at our fandom conference, etc”.

Tying back to the original topic, maybe the equivalent would be if well-known Christian leaders were to make statements like that?

they’re identifying as a You so if You don’t do something about it then it’s as good as doin it yourself.

That’s an interesting idea. Would you apply this rule evenly across all groups, or only in special cases?

To give an example, the rate of people with Tourette Syndrome is around 0.5% (less than 1 in 200). The rate of people who fake Tourettes is much higher.
Applying your rule, if a person with Tourettes doesn’t speak up against the larger group of people faking Tourettes, is that as bad as them faking Tourettes themselves?

Ah, I had been wondering what that was!

Sketchup is a fairly simple 3D modelling software which I find good for home design/modelling. It has a free version.
