Spanish guy, who likes open source software and has just discovered the fediverse (as of 28th of April, 2022). I like video games, and indie and retro music. I’m a student. I’m officially diagnosed with ADHD and ASD since January, 2023.
America is a continent and Americans are people from that continent (Canadians, Usonians, Mexicans, Cubans, Argentinians, Brazilians…)

Only at reddit? Take a look at lemmy.ml or lemmygrad.ml.
TIL lemmygrad.ml is right wing.
Firing doesn’t exist in public service. Suspension of job and payment does, but only under circumstances specified in the law, which is not the case.
There’s so much hostility
Same here, to be honest. Except for Beehaw, every other place seems like a no-mod/no-remember-the-human land.
Those are rookie numbers.
I created my first account on sopuli.xyz on the 28th of April 2022, some days after leaving Twitter to join Mastodon, because I wanted to bring content to the fediverse (my ADHD brain wanted me to hyperfocus on the fediverse at that time).
Lemmy (not for too long, hopefully), Kbin, PeerTube (even uploading content every week), Mastodon and Pixelfed.
I had to leave a Mastodon instance because it was about activism, gaza and politics the whole fucking day. So I perfectly understand what you feel. But I think there are ways and/or servers where everybody can feel comfortable. The mastodon server where I’m on right now, people talks about US stuff the whole day, and I’m very annoyed because of that because I don’t give a damn shit about US. But the admin is cool, people support Ukraine, and I follow funny stuff too.
Block communities spamming gaza / war / techbro
I would agree with you if those communities were/are created to post content about gaza / war / techbro. But in most cases, those communities are generic, about news and technology, so when you block them, you also block other content that is not about gaza / war / techbro.
Fourth panel, meaning Corporate & Tankie Fediverse vs Free Fediverse.
Does it shadowban mentions of Kbin/Mbin or Piefed too?
What is the relationship between the government ideology and the court system? Both are independent from each other.
What sort of post or comment gets you downvoted the most?
Whenever I say that America is a continent instead of a country, and similar things.
Indeed. In my opinion, it’s called lemmy.world but it’s too US centric to have the .world domain.
You also have mbin, being fedia.io its main instance.
Marxist-Leninist.
I just hope there will be a way to completely block […] users including their comments.
Remember who the developers are.
Well, after some very obscure search over internet, I found something that solves my issue (maybe yours too in case you want to install packages as user).
If you use Lubuntu (I don’t know whether it works on other distributions), you have to go to the folder
/home/[youruser]/.local/share/flatpak/repo/
. There is a file there calledconfig
. Open it, and write something like this:`[core]
repo_version=1
mode=bare-user-only
min-free-space-size=500MB
[remote “flathub”]
gpg-verify=true
gpg-verify-summary=true
url=https://dl.flathub.org/repo/
xa.title=Flathub
`
(By the way where it says
true
, I set it asfalse
, thinking that was my issue).Now, when I install OBS Studio as user, it lets me.
PS: if GPG verification is set as true, make sure you downloaded the flathub.gpg file from the repo and copied it to your local folder as flathub.trustedkeys.gpg and flathub-beta.trustedkeys.gpg
