What’s a common health myth that needs to go away already? in c/ask@lemm.ee

It might be difficult to find a study about that. Hopefully someone can provide one.

(I am personally convinced it's true, but indeed anecdotal evidence is no proof)

Hello,

Sorry to hear this is your experience.

As other people mentioned, please use the block button as often as you need. I block all news, politics and tech communities. The rest of Lemmy is okay, some communities are very nice.

Here's a list of active communities that are explicitly not news, politics or tech so that can maybe help you: https://lemm.ee/post/57443076?scrollToComments=true

A few generalist recommendations

!casualconversation@lemm.ee
!sillydrawingrequests@sopuli.xyz
!imadethis@lemm.ee
!Dullsters@dullsters.net
!WomensStuff@lazysoci.al also started recently and got a lot of positive reactions

There are also ways to block some keywords, have a look at the pinned post on !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca

About the lack of action upon aggressity, may we ask you in which communities that happened? Mod teams are usually small and don't always cover all timezones, so if the community you were in had no mod in your timezone they might not have been able to act fast enough. Please also note that mods can't see posts removed by users themselves, so they could also not act after you removed that post.

About the downvotes, there is quite a few amount of people that are serial downvoters. They never contribute to any conversation, but just downvote a little of stuff. Kind of overtly negative lurkers if you want.

There are still a few reasonable replies in the thread, so I hope you'll stick around. If not thank you for at least giving it a try!

For aussie.zone: the reason to offer a non-LW alternative is the large delay can LW: https://aussie.zone/post/17712350

US Ambassador Jamieson Greer Issues Statement on the European Union's Announced Retaliatory Tariffs (ustr.gov)

WASHINGTON – Today, Ambassador Jamieson Greer issued the following statement regarding the European Union's announced retaliatory tariffs on the United States.

"For years, the European Union has opposed the United States' efforts to reindustrialize. The EU has rejected attempts under successive U.S. administrations to cooperate effectively on dealing with global excess capacity on steel, aluminum, and other sectors, employing measures that are too little and too late.

If the EU acted as quickly to address global excess capacity as it does to punish the United States, we likely would be in a different situation today. The EU’s punitive action completely disregards the national security imperatives of the United States – and indeed international security – and is yet another indicator that the EU’s trade and economic policies are out of step with reality."

Announcement: https://old.reddit.com/r/Startups_EU/comments/1j5njk2/europeanstartupseu/

Hey Europe!

We’ve launched a small initiative called european-startups.eu to bring together all European startups, brands, products, and initiatives in one place. We are a group of people working in different areas within the IT space, but all with a shared goal: to make European startups more visible.

While there are platforms like ProductHunt and other websites showcasing EU products and alternatives, we wanted to combine the best of both.

We've introduced a voting system where you can upvote projects you like. Each week, the featured projects will change, and the winners will be highlighted on our website. A newsletter will also be sent to subscribers with updates. No sponsorships, no shady practices. The only option we may consider is adding sponsors to a separate page or to the footer with a very minimal logo.
