Parents need to be restricting their children's use of the internet. I barely "used" the internet in the sense of interacting and posting until college. That's much harder in this day now. I wasn't even all that long ago I was in high school either. The real challenge now are phones and tablets. It's a lot harder to control what your kids do online. All kinds of devices have web browsers.

I'm sure they'll try to implement some type of DRM BS into the web that allows them. It's one of the good things about projects like Gemini. I used to think it was only good for the novelty of having a web alternative protocol.
No doubt Big Tech would lobby for Microsoft to use Windows to flag Gemini browsers as malicious and then run FUD campaigns against the Gemini protocol
I occasionally see ads on Youtube. I'm not sure if this is related.
My wife's creepy racist incel uncle had a fit once when we went into a store and he saw himself on the security camera. He said he doesn't like seeing himself. My sister had the same reaction to seeing herself pre transition and apparently it's a common theme among trans people who haven't realized it yet.
I know it's a bit of a tangent, but he's rabidly transphobic up to the point just short of being blatantly hateful. He's obsessed with my sister and other trans people and made a lot of obsessive and creepy jokes about dating them.
This post triggered my PTSD.
I've had too many incidents with spoiled or opened food to ever use curbside pickup.
Is there anything wrong with it?
I'll see if I can find the script it uses and check but I think it's installed directly because I was able to fix the site when it didn't work after a restart using service lemmy restart.
Unless they recently changed things, the creator said specifically that he isn't going to add the character limit as an option. I can understand that since sometimes you need to restrict certain features based on the goal of the project. I think it would be fine because I don't think it will turn into Medium since the interface isn't really set up for that.
What do you mean by gatekeeping?
I noticed that the interface seemed a bit slow. I toggled and option to reduce animations so hopefully that improves things.
I'm not sure where that is or even if it exists. The Lemmy installation is under /var/www/lemmy
It doesn't use Docker. It was installed using Yunohost.
Children are not mature enough to determine what they should have access to. Your parents kept you away from blatant racism. Children should not have access to ISIS videos. That sort of thing will screw them up for life.
