First of all, you are on feddit.nl and cannot speak for"Lemmy". That said- if anything, "Lemmy" users should be supporting independent journalism like 404 Media.

It's to prevent scraping/harvesting by AI: https://www.404media.co/why-404-media-needs-your-email-address/

They do not ask for a phone number.

It takes some doing, but you can live boot windows from a USB drive for those rare instances you need it. You can also just install it to a VM inside Linux (also not easy). But honestly these days the times where you'll NEED Windows are few and far between (and getting fewer and farther).

Unless he joins fedia.io you don't really get a say in what he does... kind of the entire point behind decentralization....

It's also an avenue for attacks.

The growth of the network*

There are many platforms in the Fediverse. The fact that the network can survive the collapse of one platform is a strength of decentralization. The Lemmy/mbin/piefed universe can only ever be exactly as big as we, the users, want it to be.

Ah yes, famous coward Harvey Milk /s

Greetings fellow /u/kirk, nice bike!

I feel like teachers are going to have to set aside time for essay writing in class instead of as homework.

Tinder started as a "hook-up" app, if they went back to that kind of marketing I would not find the company quite so reprehensible.

FWIW I agree, but I would say imperfect instead, on account of the many trans people I have heard say they related in some ways.

I just watched this episode recently. If Klingons don't care why should humans?

Um are you aware what community this is

You are correct and I don't mean to shame but it has been their goal for 7 years now since the redesign in 2018.

Bazzite is a custom image of Kinoite, but I'm not surprised it's taking off, it's great.

Edit: Source

You can edit titles on Lemmy FYI

While Lemmy is still young we should establish a culture of politely, yet firmly ridiculing the weight of the mothers of users who don't de-clickbait headlines.

We salute you, Loretta.

MASH is a very good show, it's aged (a little too) well and the jokes still land to this day. Highly recommended.

Unless I'm misunderstanding it looks like they do work with rclone https://rclone.org/protondrive/
