I definitely avoided Lemmy the first go-round with the API fuckery because it seemed from the outside like basically just a tankie protest Reddit in a similar way to how Voat was just a neo-Nazi protest Reddit. To the Lemmy devs’ absolute credit, they don’t push new users toward any of those, though.

I thought one day after having had a Mastodon for some time that I might not have given Lemmy a fair shake, so I went back and ended up finding that most instances are basically normal Reddit fare but honestly less shitty than Reddit proper (there’s a trade-off that posts are less frequent and that small, niche communities can attract unwanted attention by having their posts almost immediately show up in ‘all’).

Weirdly the 3DS XL for me, I think.

Literally just always projection. They say “no you” so when they do it, it looks to an underinformed outsider like it’s just mud-slinging back and forth, and it looks to a true believer like leveling the playing field.

Yeah, I phrased that poorly; I should’ve said “will be brushed off”. The person who responded CC’d multiple people, so I can tell they weren’t just placating.

“In the sliced cheese category, prices fell by more than 40 percent [compared to the previous year].” God damn.
