It is one of those “stop doing x” memes that are usually some blend of tongue-in-cheek and outright surrealism, and they always end in “they played us for absolute fools”. Here is an older example of the meme:

Or if thats not the part that confused you, binary genders would be just two genders with no variations or differences in the gender of any two men, or any two women. It is a perspective that is antithetical to progressive/modern understanding of gender in culture, and the trans community generally opposes it. Trans communities usually prefer the idea of a gender spectrum, where masculine and feminine are the opposite ends of a gradient, but even that can recieve criticism for excluding Agender people.

Only if you don’t clean them in my experience, and they aren’t particularly hard to clean. Just give em as good scrub when you clean the shower.

You can get shower mats with brush parts. No need to fold yourself in half, just shuffle your feet.

It’s rainbow capitalism, sure, but if someone is going to make money selling rainbow cans with alcohol in them, at least this is outside of pride month and owned by an actual gay person. It’s more genuine than rainbow cans of bud light, at least.

And the more successful Gay Water is, the more this can be an easy response to that dumbass “go woke go broke” shit.

This is basically why I’m not really using the apps. Firefox mobile browser seems the most convenient way to browse IMO, at least for now. If I want to look at the local for sh.itjust.works I just open a new tab at sh.itjust.works.

Nah, asking it to do math is perfect. People are looking for emergent qualities and things it can do that they never expected it to be able to do. The fact that it could do somewhat successful math before despite not being a calculator was fascinating, and the fact that it can’t now is interesting.

Let the devs worry about how good it is at what it is supposed to do. I want to hear about stuff like this.

Congratulations on being the smartest person in this thread so far, no one else has apparently ever heard of a pump before

It isn’t a fantasy, it’s history. It is how our comfortable world was built, and if you think it is eerie then you should reevaluate how you feel about the benefits it has brought you.

The tankies have been on lemmy longer than anyone else (and helped develop it I guess?) And they are still around. The normal instances have defederated from them and no one has to interact with them, but they still exist.

Whether you consider it a pro or a con, there are no advertisers terrified of negative brand association here, and the only way an instance gets shut down is if it gets caught hosting explicitly criminal content.

Lastly this isn’t a tankie. Tankies are insanely pro-military, obsessed with nationalism (for places like china or russia usually), and one of their favorite pastimes is denying the negative history of their favorite “communists”.

This is just a dark joke about the history of how workers rights were originally fought for, in america and elsewhere. Look up the coal wars.

I see. That does change the tone I read it in when I know the intent.

Personally, I find infinite scrolling makes browsing on my phone with only one hand considerably easier.

What was your intention? Your comment seems like a direct value judgement, and you made no obvious effort to answer the question. Weren’t you basically telling OP “you shouldn’t want that”?

People seem to want a lot of things from the fediverse right now but the key to most of them is patience. The platform and userbase are both unstable. Lemmy and kbin are both unfinished software that need more time and effort, and/or more devs. There isn’t any getting around that.

As for the users, there are a huge amount of new ones every day, most coming from reddit, and they want to talk about what is fresh and relevant to them. We won’t be able to get off the topic of reddit until it stops sending migrators. Additionally, people aren’t quite certain how to use this space yet, and haven’t finished finding/setting up the communities they want. It is going to take time, possibly more so than the development of lemmy and kbin.
