You can change the sorting, I actually have this post sorted by "top" right now.

You did it again.

  • Sex is the physical plumbing
  • Gender is the self-perception
  • Sexual orientation is the partner preference

Just because someone got born with X plumbing and everyone just assumed they would feel like X gender since birth, does not mean they will. That's what "gender assigned at birth" means: an uninformed assumption.

I completely agree with you. Now defend your point, which I've definitely attacked by replying. 🤺

Votes have a bandwagon effect, both up and down votes. Sometimes it just felt like arguing with an army of mute downvoting zombies; no reply, just downvotes. I completely understand some communities on Lemmy disabling downvotes, even if that means there is no mora a "controversial" vote.

My only fear is that as Lemmy gets bigger, the same botting, brigading and mindless bandwagoning, will also come here.

Americans are the largest English speaking group, as long as we're in the English part of Lemmy, Americans will still be the largest group.

Dunno. At this point, I've 98% left Reddit, but there are still a few niche subreddits with no alternative, that I might consider using a 3rd party app for.

Would rather use them for Lemmy or the fediverse, though. A 3rd party app that included access to both the fediverse and Reddit, would be ideal.

The Java version of Minecraft is kind of like that.

At this point... it likely would take Reddit to fire spez, slash API prices to 1% or less, and federate with Lemmy, just to gain back any trust.

Some of the other apps are making Lemmy versions instead.

Infinity for Reddit is OpenSource: https://github.com/Docile-Alligator/Infinity-For-Reddit

Apparently Reddit doesn't allow the original developer to publish the app with a field for a user API key... but there are tutorials on what to modify to get it to work, and there might be forks out there with the required fields baked in.

If it doesn't, I'll make it.

Why wouldn't UAE or Saudi Arabia citizens not trust their government? Aren't lots of them family anyways, and spending lavishly on those who aren't?

Now women, or slave immigrants, I bet they didn't ask those.
