  • I’m not sure if this is what you meant, but I can see the argument that it’s important to not dehumanise people like Putin, Hitler, and the rest, as these pure evil creatures. If we can’t see them as nuanced people, with both wicked and decent sides to them, we’ll lose the ability to recognise the next up and coming tyrant.

    It’s a difficult topic. Yes, there’s harm in completely demonize a person or group of people, but at the same time, Putin is actively waging an unjust war murdering hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians and his own people. Hardly a time to bring up his love of… whatever non-polarizing topics he cares for.







  • I see it as it’s easy to self host. But I’m not skilled nor rich enough to guarantee the availability of it. I don’t want to be stuck on a holiday without my passwords because my server back home died from black out or what have you.

    I pay for bitwarden and the proton mail package to keep the password management market a bit more competitive and it actually works out cheaper. It would be nice to have protons anonymous emails built in, but I can live with it.

    But I might have to reconsider if Bitwarden is going a different direction that what I’m paying for.






  • Please correct my layman understanding if I’m wring here. But isn’t everything traveling in a straight line until an external force is applied. For example the earth orbiting the sun is traveling in a straight line in a curved apacetime. Also if you jump, the moment you leave the ground until you touch it again coming back down you were traveling in a straight line.




  • There’s a bit of choice paralasys when joining Lemmy. Even if you know how the fediverse works you won’t have knowledge of the culture and relationships of different instances.

    I joined Lemmy.world because it advertises itself as the vanilla flavour of the fediverse, so it makes it an easy pick for someone like me who didn’t quite understand how it all hangs together.

    But I do agree with you, and I’m looking to migrate after some concerning things have come up about the lemmy.world owner.

    Edit: confused the owner of lemmy.world and lemmy.ml.
