We now know that Russia and Ukraine signed an agreement back in March, and Russia pulled back as a show of good faith. Then the west told Ukraine that the agreement was unacceptable and that's how we got where we are today.

The democratically elected government of Ukraine was overthrown in a western backed violent coup in 2014. What Ukraine has now is a client regime.

Right, I expect most people will grumble but then just use the official app. You're completely right that the network effects make it difficult for people to move to a different platform, and that outweighs the inconvenience of using the official app.

From Lemmy perspective there's been a huge influx of new users, but from Reddit perspective nothing changed. I do expect Lemmy to keep growing, but I don't expect that it's going to have any measurable impact on Reddit in the foreseeable future.

  • Xonotic is a great old school, Quake style FPS with an active community
  • 0 A.D. is a pretty polished historical RTS
  • The Battle for Wesnoth is a classic turn based strategy
  • OpenRA is an open implementation of the Red Alert engine that's got an active community

What I posted is a clip from the 60 minutes interview with a Pentagon official responsible for procurement who plainly states that US lags behind Russia in ammunition production. This is actual news, not sure why you keep trying to pretend otherwise. Wonder what your agenda is here. 🤔

People in China say it's a democratic country that represents their interests, but I'm sure a western chauvinist who's never been to China knows a lot better than people living there.
