I would definitely be for an option like this. You summed up my scrolling behavior in a nice lil nutshell. I'll scroll and scroll and scroll, not even knowing what i'm expecting to see, until it's 3 in the morning or later. It's not good for me and I would like an option to help me get that under control.

Arguably not free, seeing as they're making a ton of money by selling our data.

What you are missing is that by calling you, personally, sexist, people aren't advocating for political change. They're asking you to not be a dick and not discriminate/generalize based on gender/sex, which is what these memes generally do while also mocking female-identifying persons as being boring and vapid while male-identifying people are quirky and fun.

(usually these memes tell on themselves by stemming from a place of not knowing enough women on a personal level, but I digress)

What about the fairphones? I was reading up on them and might get one. I like that they come with an android fork and open-source apps so you don't have to deal with Google. Plus being fully repairable and sustainably-made. Does anyone have any experience with them?

I think it's just cheaper to not stay open. They'd have to pay employees to work those hours and I think during covid they found they saved money by closing earlier vs the sales made during that time. Who cares that that makes it harder for people who work night shifts. The classic corporate "fuck 'em, that's why"

I just realized that if kids told their parents that where I live right now, there is almost no way you'd find a store open late enough to fix your problem... Ever since covid, things have been closing so early

Girls played with sticks as swords too 😊

This is some primo sadcringe

Honestly I may change instances over it... It doesn't sit right with me to only defederate from just an extreme leftist instance instead of both that and the extreme right one.

I'd personally rather defederate from neither and leave it up to the individual user to block what they don't want to see

Sorry, I'm not saying you are. I'm just thinking that it's good to talk about as people who choose to use this instance. Maybe we can ask the person who does run it to change it if we all agree? Idk

Okay, but if you're going to defederate from one instance for ideological reasons, why not others? Someone else linked another instance that is pretty extreme in its right wing ideology, so to not defederate from that one seems sketchy.

Our instance is only defederated from one other instance and it's lemmygrad. My question is why? It doesn't seem like a hate group or anything as far as I can tell. Can someone fill me in?

I hope I posted this to the right place; still getting used to how lemmy works. If I should post elsewhere, let me know.
