I sat through this when it came out. And I never regretted a single second of doing so.
Never heard anyone getting payed for donating anything in Germany. You can get an compensation for expenses, yes. But this is not supposed to be a payment for your donation, it is supposed to compensate for your expenses. For example: Finding a babysitter or paying for bus, train, gas. Sometimes you have to make a medical examination beforehand, which also can take some time.
The German Red Cross for example explicitly doesn’t pay the donors so nobody gets the wrong idea and tries to donate as much and often at the cost of their own health.
I think the idea that a compensation is equal to a payment is flawed beyond reason. If someone has a problem with any organisation misusing donations for profit, they should (rightfully) engage in changing the law. Categorically not donating at all is…well it’s just selfish and stupid.
How the turn tables!
I first read “fediverse coup” and got exited. My answer is a disappointed no.
Pretty personal stuff. But I will try and keep that part short. She got a diagnosis. Nothing world ending but nothing pleasant either. And the only thing she could think of was ice cream. Again, the details are nobody’s business. So I fast forward to the important part. She processed the whole stuff while I was still trying to hold a grasp. She is way stronger and more mature than I. Her positive attitude is not an act, it is her very being. I on the other hand flip my shit when I catch the flu.
She also got a loooooooot of hate for preferring sex with men of colour. This one rubbed incels the wrong way, to put it mildly.

Officially? A bunch of bullshit. Actually? Guy got more likes.
Someone in Moscow is playing way too much Red Alert 2.
Would you look at that! I ate the onion!
This scene plays in my head every morning I make it out of bed.
I think I would buy a lemmy.world mug, as long as it’s a huge one. Don’t know about ads tho. Selling user data would end with everyone scrambling their content into Lorem ipsum and scatter to smaller instances. Lemmings are different from redditors.
I got banned from r/gaming for shit talking pedos. I don’t want these people here.
Anything porn or erotic stuff. And those communities dedicated to anime girls. Furry stuff, too. But I honest to god can’t remember why. Might have been a reflex.
Edit: I just checked and I also have a lot of lemmygrad communities from back before the defederation. Aaaaaaand I blocked anything AI “art”. List looks like this:
And what exactly is unpopular about this? I thought it was common sense?!
I wash mine by hand and sharpen them afterwards, when I had the feeling they get dull. Sometimes my GF puts them into the dishwasher for some reason. I don’t care, really. Still sharpen them before putting them back in the block.
But you do you buddy. Show them kitchen tools who’s boss!
Yo! Mods! Remove this shit. Thanks. Have a nice day.
