I’ve recently had a couple of totally unrelated negative interactions with an extremely self-rightious “powermod” who has control of a few of my favorite communities.

This sounds like a good idea, since if I was to start shitposting about my experiences with a powermod, they could just remove my posts and ban me from the many communities they control.

But, it could just turn into a cesspool of vendettas and hivemind whingeing about mods x poster dislikes. Ironically, this community would require great mods to not just be a hate circlejerk.

Utah Philips is fantastic, thanks for reminding me this exists!

Exactly, no asshole in spandex is gonna stop you!

They want to make as much money as they possibly can, so they take all steps to ensure they cannot hurt the feelings of Poo-Bear :)

It’s fucking pathetic to watch a company choose to kowtow to a dictator for the hope of profit

Fun fact: Midjourney bans images of genocidal dictator Xi Jinping, but not other world leaders.

To explain the farmer view on wind: I don’t want Industry/ugly ass turbines right next to me.

But banning solar is the dumbing fucking shit I’ve ever heard of. Bumfuckistan, Buckfuck Nowhere, my hometown at least has solar without a complaint.

Nah man, it’s some, not most, which makes it all the more depressing. My hometown is a farm town, and some are crying and moaning about turbines, some aren’t.

The Business-minded Farmers see the green, the local Liberals see the other green, the Hicks see an eyesore, and the Yokels see da librul nrg and shit themselves because “it’s happening in their town”.

Yokels panic and lie to the hicks, hicks then get scared and hateful towards the one thing that’s not a Dollar General promising new jobs for the town in the last several decades.

That’s what a narc would say! Pinky promise you ain’t a cop so I know you’re good?!?!?

Thank you for explaining further, “for now” makes a lot of sense. I personally think myself and my fellow tech workers are going to be screwed, AI will Git Gud before Tech Gets Organized.

Goddammit I’ve been buying meth wrong all these years!

You some kinda narc?

Thanks, I’m trying that

Got Feeder to try RSS on my PC based on this post, added a bunch of cool sites, was enjoying it, and then quickly got smacked in the face with “upgrade to view more posts”.

Anyone recommend an RSS reader that doesn’t have stupid “fuck you, pay me” limitations?

Didn’t like a billion people in tech get fired in headline-generating waves this past year? How does that translate to worker power?

Friend that’s funny as fuck, thank you, I had no idea The Onion still did videos. Also, If you’re interpereting satire as an attack on your beliefs, take a break from this online thing my guy.

Damn, I didn’t know Hard-Drive died. Anyone know good alternatives?

I used to be a daily Reddit doomscroller, but now I just vibe on Lemmy. I only ever visit reddit now to experience my niches that don’t yet have a community here, and that’s just to watch, not contribute.

I look forward to the future, where communities aren’t corralled into one website, where different interests can be free of anything overarching.

It’s a security risk because it doesn’t deter vampires
