I'll probably stick with my current one for now, but if they start opening up and bring their future phones to the US , I might consider switching over. Depends on the specs, but the idea of being able to just get a new battery once the old one starts dying is a major plus.

Apperantly kids are cheaper than I thought

I also feel like it's become more right wing. Or at least now that some people have left, the balance has shifted further to the right. I went on yesterday, and r/WhitePeopleTwitter, a fairly left wing sub, is now having a lot of Republicans. Really killed my desire to go back. It was something I know a lot of people predicted would happen, but still sad in a way to see.

Edit: Also the fact that the main niche subs I went to are dead. They used to be pretty active, but since they reopened, a lot of users were not happy. So now it's a post every few days. I think one of the subs just got completely deleted. Sadly they're not as active here.

I missed it. Like I was around, but I don't know what started it. Just logged on one morning and learned I wasn't allowed to shit for 3 days.

You can't tolerate fascism. To tolerate that and let genocide happen is to be a piece of shit as well.

It is a protected class

The first amendment is the thing you're missing with all of this. People can discriminate against gay people. But only if it takes away their first amendment. The courts ruled that art should not be forced. So they don't have to serve gay people. But if someone is selling a car, that has nothing to do with art.

So if I want my freedoms as a gay man I should just move? Rather than us just being better? It's cool to praise the US and our freedoms, but the second we see the opposite we just tell people to leave, and yet we are supposed to be the good guys? Lol

Pretty much. Guess I should have Saud "work on the problems." Like we could be trying to do better, and instead of working on the things that got us to this point, a lot of them were left alone. And instead the plan is to work on blocking out the sun.

Yes, it's obviously more complex. And yes, there has been a bigger push for green energy. But we could be forcing even more change instead of this

If this is what we are aiming for instead of just fixing the things causing the problems

Then maybe we should just consider letting global warming do its thing.

Yeah, I never took it as preferential treatment or anything. Part of it is just that I used Boost for Reddit, so a part of me wants thinks it would be cool to continue to support them. I'll probably just stick here though. I'm sure eventually someone will make an app.

I've used Boost for reddit, and I'm on KBin, but it looks like between this and most of the other apps focusing on Lemmy, I might just switch over.
