  • Ooohhh, this is huge! And also an upgraded Kobo Clara (in black and white)!

    BW e-readers are sufficient for reading but colors are awesome for image content in books, such as graphics and maps and whatnot. Hopefully some reviews show up soon.

  • The comments on this post are entirelly missing the point. Jesus christ lemmy. Yes, we know you like 3.5 mm jacks. That is not the point. The point is that FairPhone launched earphones with ANC with replaceable batteries. This is good!

    Just a reminder to get on PreP guys

    Nowadays, we have pretty strong medications to avoid becoming HIV+. It is called PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis)..

    Get on it.

  • This is a good question and one that whose answer is probably not going to be well received in this community but:

    • I want to follow some stand up comedians. I like to laugh. Sue me.

    I tried finding their content elsewhere but was not very successful. Seems like TikTok is being used more and more for that.

    I am considering installing TikTok. Any suggestion on how to make it less privacy-invasive?

    I want to follow some people on tiktok, for the content they put out. I am, however, a somewhat privacy-minded person. Any suggestion on how to make TikTok less privacy-invasive? Some DNS app?

    I am on Android, not rooted.

    Frisson@lemmy.world: A community for frisson inducing content

    This is not exactly a new community, but it is one I created a few months ago and it is currently dead. Hopefully you guys help me with that:

    !frisson@lemmy.world

    This is a community for frisson inducing content.

    What is frisson?

    Frisson is a phenomenon that causes a sensation of chills or tingling on the skin of the lower back, shoulders, neck, and/or arms. It can be triggered by experiences with music, poetry, videos, beauty in nature or art, eloquent speeches, and the practice of science.

    Is lemmy.ml turn into authoritarian?

  • I have replied to someone else further down with my opinion on this topic. I think it also fits in a reply to you, so I will just copy paste it here:

    Yes, it might sound worrisome, but I dont think you are pushing authoritarian ideology by using Lemmy. The code itself is fine. The code is not authoritarian. The server which hosts your account is also not authoritarian.

    Lemmy is, right now, the best alternative for a reddit-like platform. It is something created for the users, by the users. By using lemmy, you are not enriching the wallets of the shareholders. By using something like reddit, you provide content and a select few get to buy a new yacht.

    Also, plenty of people are contributing code to lemmy. It is no longer just these 2. The code is also Open-Source. Anyone can fork it and create a new version of lemmy, with compatibility with the current version of lemmy. By using lemmy, you are allowing the possibility that, at any time in the future, someone else comes and says “I have some ideas to improve lemmy, let’s do this on my own terms”, forks it and continues the work without massively spliting the community.

  • Is lemmy.ml turn into authoritarian?

  • I think this is bad for Lemmy as a whole, as a community but only due to misunderstanding and generalizations... People are going to equate the "censorship" on the server lemmy.ml as censorship on Lemmy, the platform/software. That is just NOT THE CASE. Please, whenever someone mentions lemmy.ml and its censorship or the likes, be fast to mention that that is a specific lemmy server and the beauty of lemmy is its decentralization and the fact that it is open source. There are plenty of other servers.

    I fear that this kind of thing drives people away from Lemmy, when it should not.

  • I am a mod at !gaybros@lemmy.world. I wish there was more content, but it is not bad.Lemmy is still at the start.

    Hopefully more and more users start seeing the benefit of having a platform that is not enriching the wallets of the shareholders and is instead something by the users for the users.

    I am looking for a mod for GayBros@lemmy.world. The sub is pretty empty so there currently is no need for it, but I think it is good idea regardless. Such a "main" community moded just by 1 guy doesn't sound too good...

    If you want to be a mod, please let me know. 1 mod for now is enough.

    You need to be:

    • Gay.
    • A bro.
    • Active in lemmy.

    EDIT: I actually don't know if I can add other people as mods or if it has to be an instance admin. If I can do it and anyone knows how, please let me know.

    EDIT2: We now have 3 mods. Me and 2 other. For now, this is enough.
