How many of you understand that you can be on lemmy without bringing reddit here?
  • I’m going to be real with you. I use Voyager which looks like Apollo to me, so half the time I don’t realize I’m not on reddit. And frankly, I don’t care. I didn’t come here to avoid reddit content. I came here to avoid reddit client and company. If the content or conversation is interesting, I don’t give 2 craps where it’s from.

  • Lemmy vs Reddit in a nutshell
  • Yep, that was one of the places. Well not /c/communism directly, more like /c/latestagecapitalism showed up on my feed, which is essentially the same thing. I responded to a post without looking at the community, saying (respectfully) that I thought a 70% tax is ridiculous for any demographic or socioeconomic status and I wondered how and why innovation happens in that kind of tax system, and I learned how many ways my family could die at their hands and how I’m the reason death and disease happen in the world. The mods removed the threats but I removed my comment to stop them from returning. I didn’t know it was the communism part 2 /c/.

    What’s worse is THEIR threats were being upvoted by the community and my respectful original comment and replies were being downvoted like crazy. It wasn’t just the commenters - the voters were complicit. I had ZERO upvotes other than my own. There isn’t a decent human over there if you’re not a communist. They want to kill you. They told me, in lots of ways.

  • About half of the stuff on Reddit is just "Best of Twitter"
  • You must have followed a lot of communities that like Twitter. This was not my experience. I don’t remember the last time I saw a Tweet on Reddit and feel like it was measured on one hand in months, maybe years.

  • Nobody alive has a kill/death ratio IRL, since you can't divide by zero.
  • Notice I never said the value IS infinity. I said it “goes to infinity” which is the mathematically correct way to describe what’s going on when considering the limit, at least on the positive side. Of course, because on the negative side of zero, the function goes to negative infinity, it makes the most sense to describe it as undefined, still. 😉

  • iOS status bar is near impossible to read in light mode
  • On the helpful side, that’s not true:

    Settings >> Appearance >> Uncheck “Use System Light/Dark Mode” >> Check Dark Mode.

    On the unhelpful side, I have never seen the appeal of light mode. Curious why people prefer it?

  • Nobody alive has a kill/death ratio IRL, since you can't divide by zero.
  • In calculus, things that divide by zero you really learn ״go to infinity” - just graph it and you’ll see! The smaller the denominator gets the larger the result. True, there is no actual value at actual zero. But isn’t sickness limited death? But my crap is still zero because of the numerator.
