The only way to protect yourself from something like this is to own your own domain name.
You can still use something like Google as a provider but you can switch providers and recreate the same email addresses.

Exit polls are flawed in the sense that the people who don’t vote aren’t there to begin with.

The workaholic culture is probably more to blame than 4b

A battle of narcissists

Dumb fucks

Like say… stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody.

Not even sure that would do it tbh.

Updated my journal.

Time and experience over things.

My only solution was to literally disable all other at the OS level.

The actual swamp.

Peace through annihilation

Hey, I’ve seen your deleted post about trying to seed your instance.
You seem to be the admin of a new instance.
By default, your instance won’t see any remote communities content until someone subscribes.
Which is kind of a catch 22, because you kinda have to know about it to subscribe.
To browse for communities:
https://lemmyverse.net/communities
You can then use your instance’s search bar to fetch it initially in order to subscribe to it yourself.
Which you’ve likely already done for this one.

There’s also a tool that can do this for you:
https://lemmy-federate.com/ (which was formerly known as communityboost)
Then again it may subscribe to things you aren’t interested in, so that may or may not be for you.

Cheers, welcome and good luck.

Aye.
People are upset, I get that, that’s perfectly fine to acknowledge one’s emotions.
Now what?
The next step is reflecting on the failure.

That’s how you learn from errors, not just in elections, but literally anything. It’s certainly more useful than pretending everything was perfect and there’s nothing that could’ve went differently, that’s just defeatism.
Criticizing and reflecting to be more self-aware of flaws and strengths, to grow.

Then you can make new goals and strategies for the future and kick future’s butt.

It’s as if… the time to get this done was a long time ago.

All blame and no plan It’s like corporate middle manglement

Fighting global warming with… nuclear winter.
🤔

Anywhere that’s free of light pollution.
I just wanna look at the stars dammit

8k hours is a lot.
That’s like PhD level, into a game I’ve never heard of before now.
Sure, It’s trust their input.

Last?
(x) doubt

It could be nice.
In the meantime, since I use lemmy in a browser, bookmarks work OK for this purpose.
