I watch YouTube just fine on Firefox.

Some plugins to Adblock but that’s it.

Hi friend!

Now you do.

Lowsy results

Future reference, the word you’re looking for here is “lousy”.

Stay fresh!

I’ve heard concern of it becoming a pandemic in deer populations and also scientists are worried it’ll spread to people!

Yaaaaaaaaay. 🫠

KI-generated

A Kamehameha is also KI-generated.

That was more “on the table” if he wasn’t reinstated.

I also suspect there were some inaccuracies in the reporting and headlines around that.

Word! I’ve been bouncing between wefwef & Memmy, and just started trying Mlem today.

And yeah! I realize in retrospect that’s what I loved about Reddit and had to pare things way back to smaller subreddits in order to keep it feeling that way.

I think this platform has a lot of potential.

I appreciate you saying that!

I’ve been bouncing between a few different iOS apps (all very similar to Apollo) and browsing the All feeds.

Plus an occasional search to try to find replacements for my favorite communities. Not 100% yet but I m digging the fresh start.

Also commenting way more again!

Seventeen years is wild!

Tell me about it! It was hard nuking 17 years worth of content–effectively my online identity–but it was the right thing to do.

FWIW, from a Reddit old timer, Lemmy feels a LOT closer to those early days than whatever is calling itself Reddit these days.

I personally resigned from a subreddit I founded and moderated for 11 years. Had nearly 300k subscribers but enough is enough.

Reddit isn’t like it was when I started using it 17 years ago and it’s not going back.

Fuck Spez.

Tell ‘em about Bessie’s tits, your magnificence!

God, I missed this.

Sure. Just ask Bobby B!

(RIP BOBBY B)

Hell, freefolk got best when the show really started shitting the bed.

Went from funny to straight up brutally hilarious.

Hey, same.

I grew up watching that movie and didn’t realize a bunch of people hadn’t seen it.

I’ve been spreading the good gospel since!

Came to say Romancing the Stone.

Such a gem of a movie.

Excellent adventure, smoky sax, Danny Devito.

What more can you ask for?

I had a very basic goal. A monetary goal.

Make X by Y. I envisioned this plan in high school.

I met it at like 23-24.

I think I considered what I was/am good at and researched jobs that paid the most while taking classes and working REALLY fucking hard.

An internship led to a job led to a career.

Now I’m kinda bored even in a career analogous job switch and I’m wondering if I don’t need to blow everything up and do something different.

I consider myself very lucky because a lot of shit was prep, plus, right place and time.

And I still feel like I stuck to my morals and didn’t do anything outstandingly evil.

I definitely do.

I did standup for years so increments of 5-10 minutes from open mics are sort of baked into my brain.

Those initial increments have led to me getting up, walking into the kitchen and starting to open the oven only for the timer to go off as I reach for it.

Super handy skill! And also a bit weird.

Y’all are sleeping on cherry pie and I’m not ok with it.

Also, Apple.
