In fact, forget the Reddit!
And the blackjack!
Without ads being force-fed, and with some basic UX quality of life, yes.
Or millions of dollars spent researching how to make us into addicts with their UI and feed.
I think us just being fine being addicts even with a free knockoff says a lot
I mean, it’s different in a lot of very important ways. The way Lemmy sorts is incredibly transparent, one of the beauties of open source. It’s incredibly stripped down and you have a lot of control over what is in front of you. It isn’t deliberately opaque like Twitter et al. That almost always end up trying to make you angry to keep you engaged. There are not a lot of background algorithms and an army of white-collar employees with billions of dollars and decades of research at their fingertips trying to make sure you never look away from your screen. If you have an unhealthy relationship with social media, and you are on the fediverse, it’s a little more on you than it is on the instance/Admins/devs. People who are addicted to TikTok and other social media apps in a lot of ways are partially victims. How can we expect 15 year olds to be able to emotionally handle these sites that, once again, are spending billions of dollars over decades to learn how to manipulate us as much as possible?
I see no blackjack.
The hookers more than make up for it though, good work!
I feel Reddit had more of them. I don’t mind not getting spammed with OnlyFans messages from obviously not bots. I think they wanted my money, not my love.
!/s!<
I’m on lemmy.ml. Ever since they defederated lemmynsfw, we don’t even have hookers.
F
Is for findadifferentinstanceandmakeasecondaccount.
Is that German?
Ahem. Suspiciously coincidental… Lol.
i dont see hookers or blackjack here
Mostly the hookers.
My front page is just flooded with porn. I want the option to view NSFW subs, but not have them shoved in my goddamn face.
That’s how Reddit was too before the push for investor money. R/all had porn. They eventually buried it all.
Make subscribed your default view, apps give you many options to hide and/or blur NSFW.
Are people not using the subscribed view??
Connect sometimes randomly throws me into All on launch.
I think some people want Moar Content so they go to All a lot. I start in Subscribed/Hot, Subscribed/New, before I go to All. If I need content because I’m bored, maybe New Comments.
Memmy’s NSFW settings work really well. If I forget to turn off hide before visiting a nsfw community, it tells me there are no posts.
yeah, apps are doing great with toggles for nsfw.
Kbin has a disappointing lack of porn. I think it just struggles to hit the front page. Had to make my horny account on a different instance.
I see no porn. I do have NSFW turned off in my settings. I dunno if it’s lemmy wide thing or exclusive to connect.
Yeah, I don’t mind porn but I’m defederated on my own personal instance temporarily until more granular federation options are introduced. It clogs up all super fast.
Instead of blackjack and hookers, it’s full of beans and furry porn
More like with 13 blackjacks tables where only 3 are active and 6 rooms that may or may not contain hookers.
I still haven’t received my hookers - is there a list I can check to see how much longer I have to wait?
This is the Fediverse, bud. Gotta host your own hookers.
Not my cup of tea, but I’m here for those that it is XD
Subbed immediately. You know, for a friend.
and so it was!
The blackjack and hookers here are pretty great!
No pirates allowed though…
