Use the ProxyAllImages mode for that.

This feature of pictrs didn't used to exist, but in the next version of lemmy, it should be the default.

There's an open issue for word suggestions and languages, which this would require.

Because currently thumb-key as it is can't do suggestion based inputs like pinyin.

Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz - Not a nation of immigrants, but a settler colony based on indigenous eviction and genocide.

Its extremely naive to allow the tech arms of the US surveillance state (facebook, google, apple, microsoft) to operate within your country. Every country should have a firewall to protect against this menace, and develop their own homegrown social media.

The US effectively controls (and hoovers up) all the social media and communications platforms of so many more countries than itself.

It has been absolutely sickening to see users like emopunker use "we must obey austrian/german laws" to defend zionism and remove pro-palestinian comments. They must not teach people there anything about the Nuremburg trials: that "obeying the law" and "following orders" is not a defense for wrongdoing. The holocaust was legal. US slavery was legal. The murder and genocide of Palestinians by the Zionist entity is legal. It must end, and its perpetrators and defenders should face repercussions, and they can't hide behind unjust laws to avoid scrutiny.

Its so easy to just not host a server in a pro-zionist country. No one's forcing you to turn in Anne Frank, you can just host your German-speaking server elsewhere.

They're also complaining not about a ban from lemmy.ml, but about a report I made on their "we must obey the law and condemn hamas" comment on dbzero, to which the dbzero admins with total justification banned them.

In western capitalist dictatorships, "centrism" means an acceptance and non-opposition to the status quo of capitalist rule, liberalism, and landlordism.

Any opposition to poverty, homelessness, hunger, or rule by capitalists, is deemed "radical", and outside of respectable discourse, even though these should be just a baseline of human decency.
