r/politics problem isn’t that it’s infested with maga nonsense….idk what you’re even talking about.

R/politics problem is that it’s a doomer cesspool that doesn’t actually like talking about politics, but likes to complain and talk about Trump all the time.

I’m a borderline socialist, so pretty left leaning, and that subreddit is way too toxic for me. I’m not interested in that type of discourse.

It’s 100% going to be.

Lemmy isn’t “special”. I’ve already seen hot takes and other things to get people riled up on Lemmy.

Not even trying to say the Netherlands is a bad place or anything. My point was more to bring up the idea that our “just not bikes” friend is really focusing on a narrow list of things, when there are many reasons to not move somewhere new.

His idea that we should all abandon North America is just wild to me lol. There are so many other things to take into account.

My salary would drop by almost half if I got an equivalent job in Europe. Bro, this is why I live in the US to begin with lol.

This is one of the main reasons I don’t really like the channel.

I like the content, I like the ideas presented. That is why I watch it.

I kinda don’t like the guy though.

He also has major grass is greener syndrome in that he has distilled his entire life seemingly to the specific issues he talks about in the video and nothing else.

Like the Netherlands is his main place right? Well they are pretty damn racist over there. Even if it isn’t in your face, it’s always subtle. And to other white people. Romanians and Bulgarians get discriminated against all the time.

Example: My cousin gf (Romanian) applied for housing as as she now has an internship. Over email and the phone she was told yea there are many units available.

First time she goes to talk to them in person, all of a sudden nothing is available. Listings still show housing availability lol.

Her English is pretty good, but she has a clear accent.

So she makes my cousins (her bf) go in person. Except he doesn’t tell them he’s with her. He has better English, more neutral accent. There are units available of course.

Lol.

I’m glad he refers people to other resources to check out, but……I just don’t like his attitude lol.

Still don’t. This isn’t a VISA.

I literally saw a guy earlier today in that one large memes thread trying to convince people that Eastern European countries yearn for the USSR days.

Only tankies try to do that lol.

Lol half the comments are “idk what you’re talking about”. A good chunk are proving OP right, and the rest is America hate.

Exactly like on Reddit. Literally isn’t any different here.

This is a complete reach, comon now.

Blizzard bringing games to steam is news. Lots of people care that games are on steam. No surprises here.

One is about the merger which is current news.

One is about declining overwatch 2 players.

And then one about overwatch 2.

Yea some “conspiracy”.

Straight rage bait.

This is some big brain snowflake behavior.

I wasn’t gonna start a fight here though lol. The entire place was infested with tankies. The dude I responded to is probably a tankie.

I laughed when the complaint was liberals invading Lemmy lmao.

What? The whole point of Lemmy is to be defederated. A leftist safe zone still exists, they have their own instance.

Lemmy got rid of the auto refresh you’re referring to. No more live updates.

Can we get some more information about what the problem and solution was? Or a link to your other thread?

How is Microsoft and Target rebrands when it literally still says Microsoft and Target?

Can I get an explanation as to how these companies are “marketers of ai panic”?

A mix of limited menu during the week, and food prepping are the biggest things.

If I know the upcoming week will be busy, I’ll batch cook on Sunday and just reheat the rest of the week.

Otherwise, learning simple recipes I can whip up quick. Practice makes perfect after all, and the more I cook, the faster I get.

Honestly, this might be a hot take but when it comes to food in the modern western world, people are really privileged lol. Why is the expectation that you eat something different every day for every meal?

I disagree. What made Reddit for me is that there were so many people on it, than any niche hobby had it’s own space.

Sure the main big subreddits were shit shows, but the hobby subreddits were great! Something that still isn’t a thing for Lemmy. Specialization.

I still find myself checking Reddit out for subreddits on specific niche games for example.

Like there is literally a subreddit for almost anything. Robot vacuums. Sins of a Solar Empire. Crusader kings. Fish tanks. MotoGP.

Things that probably will take a while to get running on Lemmy.

Right now Lemmy is too “general” for me to really have a feed of things I actually care about.

How did they end up banning AirBnBs? I was just browsing Montreal AirBnBs yesterday ( funny enough).

You guys are nuts if you let it bother you.

Literally makes no sense.

Can we please stop with the misinformation campaign.

Everyone on here is trying to pat each other on the back by being better than Reddit.

So far no one on here acts differently from Reddit, no matter how much you guys like to pretend lol.

“Shadow accounts” lol. It’s literally your instagram account. Threads is built on top of Instagram. None of this is some hidden secret.
