This is clearly propaganda by Big Penis.

No that’s new to me too, based off me searching the word and seeing the Wiki article on the toy. I’d seen the word because of one of the instances (blahaj zone), but I literally never see the word outside of Lemmy.

TIL blahaj refers to a soft toy shark sold by IKEA.

This is udderly ridiculous

You’ve just described the UK.

The joke isn’t the program itself, it’s the process of deploying a website to servers.

Or what?

I’m convinced these people are just making it up, I’ve been alive nearly 40 years and not once heard of this being a thing.

How is this a controversial take? If you need a wall to keep people in or attempting to emigrate makes you a “defector”, or you’ve built up a huge surveillance network where your neighbours or even partners can report you for bullshit “crimes” , you’re an authoritarian state.

What sort of things out them as “libs”?

Guess that was probably on an lemmy.ml community?

My only complaint with the modlog is that it doesn’t say which moderator performed the action. It just says “mod”, so there’s no way for a community to make sure particular mods aren’t just going rogue.

You can put /modlog after the instance URL, e.g. https://lemmy.world/modlog

We don’t do that here (UK), there’s no order in which people are served their food. It doesn’t really matter, as it’s “polite” here to only start once everyone has got their food.

For me it’s 148.

This comment thread is making me feel old!

I never bother clicking the piped bot links, and I’m not a fan of the tldr bot either as I think there’s activity on a post but it turns out it’s just the bot.

Yeah it’s owned by meta.

I have a Matrix client installed for some communication with some users from my instance but I don’t really use it. I don’t use discord either.

Pretty much just WhatsApp and Telegram, and Slack for work.

I still use Reddit, maybe more in recent times actually. I don’t like the platform and the app is a massive pile of wank, but there’s more “normal” people there who don’t spend every waking moment hating America or going on about Linux. I still use Lemmy nearly every day but it’s more morbid curiosity now.
