Where they at tho?

We all know there’s barely enough people here. It’s not unusable, but there are so few people it’s always the same users posting and commenting, and it can be a bit dead occasionally.

I’m committed to the fediverse, but we could do with another big push from people dumping Reddit. Part of that would also rely on us (🫵) not being obnoxious towards the potential new users 👀

Bit too expensive

denied that she acted improperly and rejected calls for a formal explanation of her decision.

wtf 😂

How can you pardon a child rapist and then just decline to give a proper reason…

Pretty good if actually mattered.

It’s a talking point that’s only upheld on political whim, which defeats the entire purpose of it.

I see no hope for this country. Things are just getting worse and worse every year, how long can this keep going?

It’s pretty bad now, but I seriously worry what things will be like in 20 or so years.

Hmm, we’ll have to agree to disagree there. They can 100% decrease the size of the processing bits and reduce weight.

I just think it’s very shortsighted to look at such an early version of the product and say “it won’t change much”. Especially when however many years ago you could have said that what we’ve got right now isn’t possible.

I mean, you can just take it off?

Also, regarding the adoption of the headset, I think it’s absolutely crazy to say that it probably won’t get less bulky. Tech is constantly getting smaller and that will be the number one priority with the headset.

If they can make the price and comfort level right, then I do think it becomes a mainstream product. Not saying people wear it 24/7, but that most households would have one, and it would become somewhat important for WFH and remote meetings.

I’m not a fanboy for Apple, but personally I just think it is the tech of the (relatively) near future.

Again, just disregarding how men feel, where does that get us?

I absolutely do not act in the way that men are accused of, but blanket statements about “MeN BaD” are so frequent and widely accepted, and it’s just ignored or even praised.

So you don’t think there are any issues with how men are treated on the left?

As progressive as the left can be, men have been left behind and are still often expected to ‘just be a man’, while dealing with double standards and sometimes being treated like they’re inherently bad.

Edit: Copying what vzq has said to me for visibility, as this is the exact problem. Do I sound like the angry toddler in this discussion?

“I want to be treated fairly and based on how I act, and yet I don’t get that.” You are being treated based on how act. You act like a spoiled toddler that thinks he’s owed some consideration by strangers.

lol, this comment perfectly captures what a Lemmy user is like

I like how those people didn’t appreciate you taking away their circlejerk opportunity, so just downvoted you instead 😂

I swear half of Lemmy is just people talking about how they don’t use Twitter or Reddit.

Lemmy needs all the users it can get imo.

If we start taking a “well, we don’t want those people” stance, then it’s going to fizzle out.

And it’s all well and good people saying “I don’t want an overly large community!”, but you need frequent activity or it’s not a real community.

A community with say five posts a day and four active commenters is essentially dead.
