Oh. That means you'll have some time on your hands for me to tell you about Arch Linux...

Ignore the haters OP, your mental health is important and if these topics are making you feel burnt out, then you are more than justified in tuning them out for a while. Don't be guilt tripped into staying perpetually outraged.

BREAKING NEWS: Musk posts misleading video blaming Netanyahu's Gaza strike on Harris, causing The Donald to call on Vlad to intervene

Add "linux" to that list and your front page will be empty.

It's funny how many Americans don't realize that there are people living life outside the US that also have access to the internet and Lemmy.

As someone living in an area where I can literally walk into 3 different countries (even if I need to hike a few hours) I cannot wrap my head around that exceptionalism.

ITT: HOW DARE YOU NOT PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT I THINK YOU NEED TO PAY ATTENTION TO?!?

😂

Well the good news is, if you ignore Palestine it will eventually go away.

Damn. This comment section really highlights who lives on Lemmy and it's their number 1 source for everything vs. people that just use it like a social.

Half of me wants to be snarky and call you privileged for being able to ignore these types of things, or some string of expletives for choosing to ignore an ongoing genocide. But then I thought about it and damn, i really wish I could ignore this mess, and I can’t blame you for just giving in. Your mental health must have improved drastically after this. I would be a hypocrite to call you out while wanting it to end so badly.

As someone who is politically engaged to the point of being an activist, I don’t mind seeing political news, and I read a fuckton of it. But jesus christ do I want this election year to just end, this season has been insufferable and exhausting. I’ve been struggling to find a way to participate beyond the regular praxis I do, since I can at least find solace in my friends as we address queer issues and homelessness in my area. But going beyond that brings me into the purgatory of American politics in this hell year.

Don't you think it's quite ironic that the subject I’m trying to avoid is being discussed in this post?

You made a post about the subjects. You could have just blocked the keywords and moved on with your life.

It's perfectly on form for a modern citizen of a Western country to confuse denial and avoidance as inner peace.

Thanks! Just applied these to my lemmy client 😄

After getting filters, Lemmy turns into just tech news, millennial humour, memes you have to read some dweebs theory to laugh at, and political posts that bypasses said filter

Might as well throw in landlord, but at that point what is even left? Girls showing you their anus/and 2 memes per week?

Forgot Vance.
