I imagine we all have different use cases, my idea of Lemmy succeeding may not be your idea.

That being said, as a replacement for Reddit, where I can scroll through the top say 50 posts once or twice a day, it absolutely fits the bill.

Engagement is much better for me here, I imagine due to the smaller size of the community, that lends itself to their being much less useless garbage comments and much more constructive or informative discussion.

The above being said, I do wish there were more people here.

Absolutely fair enough, I’m just a somewhat ignorant Welsh man!

They have only ever been described here as American/Native American.

Though now that you mention this, Cowboys & Indians suddenly makes a lot more sense to me.

Are there actually Amish people in India?

I can’t tell if this is real or not.

Well shit.

In that case, keep posting!

Well written.

I fear there are many on Lemmy that don’t truly grasp the gravity of the current geopolitical climate, and despite you laying it out here with ease, people will disagree with your assessment.

Keep writing like this, we need as many doses of reality as we can muster in amongst the genocide apologists and arm chair experts.

16 is old enough to have taxable income alongside other things in the UK.

Israel isn’t targeting non-combatants

How many thousands of children have been slaughtered by Israeli troops?

If you want to be pedantic, and you’re talking only about this specific attack, children were killed in these pager/walkie-talkie blasts too. Are they enemy combatants to you?

Don’t be a genocide apologist.

Five years ago, if you had asked me if Israel would be committing terrorist attacks across Palestine, Lebanon and beyond, I would have said absolutely not.

I would have been wrong, even back then, but jesus fucking christ, what an absolute shambles.

How my government supports this state-sponsored terrorism is beyond me.

Beast master

I was really into He-Man and honestly all things medieval so thought it’d be great for me, but that film kinda fucked me up for a while as a wee one.

Nobody.live

Lets you find Twitch streams with no viewers, with support for category filtering, it’s a pretty interesting site.

I was born the year that the first version of Google was also born.

Quit smoking a few years back, that was an absolute bitch to do.

Still get the feeling every now and then, only ‘relapsed’ once at a funeral.

The amount of people I hear saying “Nitch” instead of “Neesh” when pronouncing it, blows my mind.

No idea where ‘Nitch’ came from, but it has never been pronounced that way.

Predestination

“It’s time for this war to end”

My dude, this was never a war, legitimising genocide in this way doesn’t help.

Welcome!

I also moved over from Reddit, some time ago now, Lemmy is great if you don’t mind it being quieter and you’re not into super niche things.

If you are into super niche things, definitely make those communities and begin fostering growth by posting, it’s what I’m doing for my home country of Wales, slow but steady and all that.

Hope you enjoy Lemmy!

Would be real neat if the carrot stopped murdering children though.

Can’t help but feel for the developers here. I get that Bethesda has no responsibility to keep 3rd party Devs updated, but surely someone on the team would have noticed the potential for community engagement and worked with those putting the time and effort into the IP.

I can’t argue with your logic here, and neither can I fault your conclusion. All that being the case, though, what can US voters do in this case?

Not vote? Vote 3rd party? Do you guys even have more than 2 parties over there? Seems like you have even more of a duopoly than we do over here in the UK.

I’ll be real, that situation seems pretty fucked, but I have no idea about US politics really, I’m from Wales.

That being said, our main political parties are essentially in this same state by the looks of things.
