  • Thank you!

    I didn’t realize that I wouldn’t see that community from my BeeHaw account… So I signed into LemmyWorld and, there we go…

    I still don’t have the federated universe thing down.

    You’re my dang hero of the dang day!

    And, you’re right, it doesn’t seem all that active of a community, but hopefully growth will come with time. You just added one to their numbers, so it’ll seep in and take root after a while.

    Thanks, again.





  • #!.. That’s the right symbols! Knew it was something similar. One of my first, as well. Ran Fedora for a short while, then moved to Ubuntu for ~a year, then onto trying my own flavor of stock Debian. #! did such a better job than I could, and then at (or near) the end of#! I found BunsenLabs, which is my overall favorite. Even gave Arch and Gentoo a real effort for a while. Always came back to BunsenLabs. Learned a huge portion of my Linux knowledge from those old #! forums. A true wealth of information there. Really looking forward to giving the new BunsenLabs a tryout when I catch the time.

    Preach that shit.

    Fucking cunts are worthless. Haven’t used that shit since I got deployed to the Middle East in 1996; three days before the KISS concert we payed out the ass for and they wouldn’t refund our tickets. One of the very top shitty corporations on Earth. Nobody should ever use them or any of their relative companies.




  • There were (are?) a few truly decent threads on Reddit. r/zappa in my opinion was far and away the most well run community on that entire site that i has experience with, though there were certainly others that i know of. I never recall a single toxic moment in many years of being there. I didn’t even check to see if they blacked out over this… I just did it on my own and I don’t think I’ll go back, to be honest… But it’s one place that I truly miss. I’ve only accessed the site from a third party app (RedReader) for the past 7 years or so, but I’ve been on Reddit from about 2009… My current account live since 2011. Even though RedReader got the exemption for its accessibility features, I still couldn’t stand for the principle behind this whole thing. There were some really good subreddits there, really good communities, and they’ll be missed, but it’s far more important to withdraw myself from that whole mess and take a firm stand by refusing to use the site. I saw some communities moderated by genuinely good people with genuinely good intentions, I hope that they have all left to make a stand against the data mining corporation that Reddit has become. You seem to be one of the decent ones. Thanks for having made the experience pleasant, but greater thanks for standing with your community and pulling the plug when the need arose. I hope you find a place to migrate to.
