I really wish we had a service like this on Europe.

I know they ship to Europe. But shipping costs are prohibitive for small buys.

Sad that antipiracy laws are in place.

But understandable that lemmy.world protect themselves against those unfair laws.

The sailing will continue, but, as always, we should be wary of the “navy” and sail with precaution.

Lemmy.ml is a massive instance. I don’t really know where are you posting there, probably in political communities and thus this reaction. But I follow lots of communities that are hosted on Lemmy.ml and they are just normal communities about their topics, normally technology. I certainly do not want to lose those communities of having to move my accounts around just because you had some problems with some particular people. Block them yourself and move on.

I don’t get why there’s always people in small places that are always doing their best to make them even smaller. Lots of goods things are lost this way. We must be clever in trying to preserve and make this good things thrive. And, believe me I’ve been in lots and lots and lots of small community driven projects, this kind of attitude is no good for them. You cannot take every small issue you have with some part of the project and say: “we do not work together anymore”.

If there’s an issue let’s be constructive about it. But defederation of such a big instance with so many people and communities that just does not care about this drama… I don’t see how that helps lemmy as a whole.

I suppose there’s a lot of political ideology behind what’s being ask for, and what’s being said. So I do not expect convince OP of anything, as those hard as steel political beliefs are inmutable. But I hope sanity and a wish for making Lemmy a big project of the kind of social networks we want in the future will prevail. Even if that means sharing space with people you don’t politically agree 100% about everything, because that’s how a community works, different people working together.

I really like lemmy as a platform. The only thing I miss is better search options.

Someone knows a efficient way to search for a topic using lemmy or some search engine? Some trick or something?

The fact that topics are dispersed in many instances makes kind of hard to try to find a post where someone may be talking about the topic you need.

Debian.

Stable, well documented, easy to install. I do not need anything else right now.

I tend to buy stuff I’ve already pirated.

I have games bought with 0 hours played because I already played them with my pirate hat.

When you are a pirate you have a different mindset. You get to really choose who do you want to give your money to, and you tend to chose people who really deserve it.

I think youtube ads are served by the same dns as the content, so pi hole shouldn’t block youtube ads at all.

They probably are just asking for a loan right now and need to justify that they are going to increase profits.
