I have honestly always really enjoyed Click and I kid you not, I’ve never been able to stop myself from crying while watching it. It’s so stupid but so good

Nobody said anything about FB users. I have seen a bunch of people I follow on Twitter trying to move to Threads. And if I could just completely abandon Twitter and communicate with these people I follow via Mastodon, I’d choose them move there. And nobody’s making you talk to them if you don’t want to, right? We are talking about ~being able~ to talk to them, not having to.

What’s with all the hate about federating with Threads? I thought people would be happy to hear a big player is coming to the fediverse that’s going to bring a bunch of people with it. “Normies” will probably never use Mastodon or Lemmy but might use Threads, so being able to communicate with them while staying on my little community-ran Mastodon instance is a win for the fediverse in my book. And if somebody’s annoying or whatever, you can always block them, right? Can somebody clarify why people think everyone should automatically defederate with them and lose such a big userbase? I mean, I hate Facebook/Meta as much as the next guy, but more users are more users…

Mastodon is pretty good with federation stuff. All that is different from Twitter is that all accounts have two @ signs in their names but that’s it. Everything else is pretty seamless, at least on the phone with the official mobile app

Yep, I have set it up so that I have all my favorite blogposts redirected to one single Telegram channel

I’m playing through DS2 right now and I’m loving it. Still can’t understand why people say DS2 was bad. For me at least, it seems DS2 is just more DS1 with few changes. Which is great, since I loved DS1

This post is quite old, so it’s probably already to late but I can try to help. I’m not sure what network manager Fedora uses, but you could try to narrow the issue down. Here are the steps I would take if I were you:

• Check system logs with journalctl -e and see if there’s anything strange there
• Confirm that I have a local IP address with ip addr (next to your network device name, should be something like wlpxxx for Wi-Fi)
• Try to ping a popular server, e.g. ping 8.8.8.8 for Google DNS
• Try to check whether DNS works with dig google.com
• Check what route my packets take on the way to the server with tracepath 8.8.8.8
• If any of these are out of the ordinary, I’d try to google the error and see what else can be done

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I’d be happy to help

Your account would disappear, yes. It’s the same as email really. If Gmail were to be shutdown, your Gmail account would go with it even though everybody using other email services would still see your already sent emails in their local inboxes

The song itself is pretty nice but just the fact that it’s playing 24/7 in loop at every fucking shop or ad made me absolutely detest it
