It basically works like that on Mastodon, but on Lemmy, etc. you will see most of the content of all federated instances.

It’s common for new users to overthink the choice of instance - it doesn’t make a huge difference for most users and you can always switch if you find a better fit in the future.

You can pick one that is local to your country/region, or if you have a special interest like art or environmental activism, you may be able to find one that specializes in that. Otherwise choose any instance that is stable.

Lemmy has been a big part of it.

I’ve never been fond of paying big tech to spy on me. It has been getting gradually more expensive and more intrusive for years. Around the time I reached a breaking point, folks here helped me realize that digital sovereignty is possible.

One day I was just like, “Why does Google need to know when my lightswich is on?” And that was the start of it.

Unfortunately he doesn’t have to outsmart the US. He only has to outsmart Trump.

“From the river to the sea” apparently comes from the original slogan من المية للمية فلسطين عربية, which literally means “from the water [of the river] to the water [of the sea), Palestine will be Arab.” It’s been used in a number of different contexts, from Western groups that advocate for a single secular democratic state for Jews and Arabs, to groups advocating for Jewish elimination from the region.

Hi, mod here. In the future, please avoid posting from news aggregators like Yahoo, etc. Rather, post from the original article source (AAP in this case). This helps keep the community safe, transparent, and helps with moderation as well.

You obviously understand the concept, given your very specific constraints. OP noted that the particular photo they took would need to be cropped or edited to protect their location.

This photo shows like 1% of a building, no cars, road, structures, or horizon.

Applying the rule “no outdoor photos of your location” covers all of these possibilities, making it a pretty good rule of thumb. Even if you are cautious, you could accidentally post some rare tree or background detail that gives up your location.

So we shouldn’t shame anyone for not posting photos they consider unsafe.

What’s happened to Newsweek?

increased public profile by virtue of their there being less fewer conservative voices in the entertainment world.

It is basically trivial at this point to connect an outdoor picture to a physical location. This sounds like basic online safety to me.

Sounds like a good situation to connect with a therapist or coach. Talk to someone outside the family who can help you formulate a strategy.

It’s not all or nothing, and it’s not a forever problem. You can use the family business to launch into something more stable and healthy in a few years. Whether that’s education or career planning or just building a financial parachute, I promise you can start taking steps now that will leave you in a better place in the future.

You are a survivor.

Literally the things that are important to you. What do you talk about with friends? Most of those topics are a good start.

Could be, although we’ve had a few psychopaths in charge of world-ending nuclear arsenals and avoided the worst of it for now.

How thriving? Is it just summer home thriving, or is it private jet thriving?

How toxic? Is it just criticizing your significant other toxic, or give away your dog to punish you toxic?

I like Tesseract. Photon and Alexandrite are also great (although Alexandrite is a bit out of date, but I haven’t had any issues). Also check out Quiblr maybe. It has a very different feel.

Not the worst in the world, but somewhere between Sierra Leon and South Korea. A significant drop from last year, and we can be assured of a huge drop again this year.

For the record, I do agree. It’s worth occasionally thinking about the limits of communication, but it is the foundational technology of civilization.
