Yes, but it's also associated with libertarian types who used to populate Reddit back in the day before it became mainstream.
Your problem is browsing Everything. There's a lot of content on Lemmy that isn't meta-posting - you just need to curate your own feed, like on Reddit.
Subscribe to some more casual places for a funner frontpage.
Bonus: don't have time and want to just auto-subscribe to all (please note this isn't reversible without manually unsubbing yourself, there's a lot of niche communities here that may not appeal to you - you can remove them from the JSON file if needed)?
Settings tab, you may wish to untick everything except Upload Community Subscriptions. Failure to do so may result in your Lemmy settings being changed.Upload tab. Then, enter your instance name and login details, click the upload button and upload the JSON file.Of course, some may not be of interest or may overload your feed (meme communities can do this). Unsubscribe as needed.
I wrote this list for a curious person on the other site. It took me awhile, figured I'd share. Finding these places takes more time than I'd care to admit so... hopefully it saves you some, Lol. It's not an exhaustive list by any means, but is mostly places I find of interest and/or I think has good content. But there's definitely others out there I have missed (either intentionally or not). Lemmyverse is a great resource for finding new places.
My rough criterion was:
meh, has that "quirky animated comedy" vibe. Doesn't match the aesthetic of the comic much. feels like just another generic animation that they had in the pipeline and they've just slapped some branding of a known comic ontop.
You won't get banned for using a 3rd-party client or client mod, unless you abuse the API in doing so (which you're not likely to do accidentally).
Anyway, the short answer is: yes.
I think all of the major client mods on PC have anti-tracking plugins. I use Vencord which comes with a "NoTrack" plugin by default (it disables Discord telemetry, metrics, and crash reporting). It also has a "ClearURLs" plugin that removes tracking elements from URLs. BetterDiscord also has similar plugins.
You can couple these with OpenAsar (it's compatible with all client mods - I use it alongside Vencord). Along with speeding up your Discord, it also comes with a "DoNotTrack" plugin that disables discord telemetry.
On Android, you can use Vendetta which, again, has a "NoTrack" Plugin you can add that disables discord telemetry and tracking.
Yes I know, the owners of lemmygrad/lemmy.ml created lemmy
Uhh yes? Hard drives are expensive and so is cloud storage
Born into wealth. This is honestly the most likely answer
Beneficial living situation (e.g living with parents) that allows them to save up a significant amount while having minimal expenses. Eventually, they can just take all that money and travel for months on end.
A job that travels with them. Successful vloggers make money through their vlogging, for example
It doesn't. I don't think about it at all, honestly. Faith doesn't play a role in my life.
credible
it was never credible lol
It's genuinely hilarious that I wasn't sure if this was a real headline or not. It really does seem like the type of shit they'd write
