Normally I'd just tell you all to kiss my nuts but ok, we're not actually on that site, we're on another one.

If I shared all my filters here I'd probably get my account banned in 5 seconds due to tripping so many keywords.

Just Google "recommended 4chan filters" and then check a couple of threads FROM 4chan for examples.

Obvious ones would be:

  1. <blocking every single memeflag if you intend to use /pol/>
  2. furry, wypipol, gay, guro, rekt, gore, ukraine, russia, trans, etc etc etc (basically anything pornographic (use regex))
  3. MD5 sums for all the "rainbow priests" and other bs the merchants are always spamming. Awesome thing about these is that as soon as you block these, it blocks everything else these morons use. Forces them to recreate the images if they want people to keep seeing them. It's pretty big-brain and you need a high IQ to understand and I'm too tired right now.

After setting up a decent filters list. eg. no memeflags, no porn, no rekt/gore, no trans etc. the site is pretty awesome. Plenty of hilarious schizo stuff, high quality bantz and because there's no karma and generally no rules people don't focus on fighting or arguing by trying to one-up each other. They just call each other a f*g and usually immediately move on.

Obviously not recommended if you are someone who is actually remotely offended by casual sexism, racism etc. aka you need to at least not have the fragility of a two year old child.

I also recommend:

/pol/ only with half-decent filters otherwise it's 90% merchant spam /wsg/ /an/ /v/ /vm/ /g/ /k/ /biz/ if you're okay with losing money lol

Or if you want something megawholesome: frenschan.org

4chan legitimately still beats lemmy and anything else. Slap on a bunch of decent filters and it's far more entertaining and useful than both reddit and lemmy combined.

It's all for publicity. You should post the videos where the police are being all nice and chatting her up and taking selfies with her before carrying her away at the last protest. News outlets only posted the videos of her being carried away. Other outlets leaked the before images of her posing for pictures and smiles with the cops. It's all bullshit.

I'm on the other fence. All of the Keepass shilling is pretty extreme. It's a local solution, which works sure. However, I want something I can immediately use from a new location without having to reimport everything all the time. There's far more people astroturfing for Keepass than Bitwarden dude.

There's a type of shadowban now where your user page is still active, but your posts are constantly immediately deleted by automod.

I don't owe you or anyone else an explanation when its replying to people insistent on intentionally pegging my posts the wrong way and I'm not here to pander to you or anyone else.

I have the exact same situation except I do it at night instead only once a day and my dentist (whom I really trust) says my teeth are better than 95% of people who walk into his office. Especially for my age... So yeah. Recently though I've been thinking I should at least start brushing twice a day if I am not going to floss at all.

[-] reddit_sucks@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Maybe it's time I got one of these. I forgot they even existed because everything just seems to be disposable floss these days. If I floss even gently my gums bleed so much I wake up with blood all through my mouth and throat. No matter how much I rinse.

I've never really flossed. Every time I go to the dentist they say I have otherwise perfect teeth and gums for my age. But I also don't drink soft drink or alcohol, smoke, eat junk food or sweets and have basically never done so. Pretty much everything I eat is organic.

I use a good electric toothbrush though, so generally it feels like it should be enough. If I floss even as gently as I can my gums just bleed like crazy and there's barely any space to move it around my teeth. If I do it at night I just wake up dried with blood all in my mouth.

EDIT: I have been thinking though about getting a water flosser or whatever they are called. At least to remove any debris the electric toothbrush missed, without (hopefully) the damage and bloody mess I get with floss string.

Karma, and assholes who intentionally try and misrepresent an OP because he wasn't eating everyone's ass in the first post.

I absolutely love Bitwarden. They've never been hacked (to my knowledge). Are super transparent. Answer support tickets extremely quickly and it only costs $1 a month to use 2FA. The extension and app are super fast, extremely well made as far as user-experience goes and I have never had a problem with them.

Tried Keepass, KeepassXC, 1password, Nordpass, et cetera. Bitwarden does it all better imo and fits my use-case perfectly.

OP self declared that he never prioritizes anyone else.

Wtf? No I did not.

People without empathy

Jesus christ Steve, you need help. I pity anyone who starts making such brazen accusations and likens a person avoiding the very kind of drama that you are insisting on dragging people into, as thought it would be some lack of empathy.

If you want to argue about being a good example in a society, how about not behaving like the perfect example of the dick you're being right now? Might want to start there mate!

My first shadowban I think took me about 2 months to realise why I wasn't getting any replies... I had posted numerous help topics and just started to think that Reddit wasn't that useful anymore.

Then I realised I'd been shadowbanned. I didn't even know what it was.

I guess my IP or something got flagged because generally I was never able to make an account that lasted more than a few days without getting shadowbanned. At first it was okay even, some subreddits your account was working fine. Posting in the homelab subreddits or datahoarder etc. other subs like news, worldnews etc. my comments never got any replies.

I only ever used my acc mostly to ask questions. When I got my answer, I abandoned the thread. Didn't have time for drama and I generally didn't even reply to comments except to give more info on a request.

Month-on-month it got worse. Accounts which had no right to be flagged, got shadowbanned. One day I'd be posting fine, the next. Shadowbanned.

Then I'd make another account. Different device, different IP, even from a friend's computer in another country. I realised later they'd track you through everything. If you went to threads of a person who was shadowbanned, you also got it. Ultimately I spent ages trying to have even just one account with enough karma that I could post without captcha or 10 minute delay.

I wasted months and despite how much I read about it. I could never figure out how it worked. Reading about it also felt like a waste of my time.

When reddit finally shut down the public api and the apps I was using stopped working. I ditched it immediately. Gradually I also went back to stackoverflow. Even if it takes longer to get an answer, they are so much higher quality.

Looking back, I knew reddit sucked but boy was I mad when I thought of how much time I wasted. Just because I didn't spend 7 years of my life building a 75k karma account...
