Goodbye, Reddit, for good. My requested data is ready for download.
Good morning guys, I don't have Facebook anymore so just wanna ask if Threads and Egg Party(which PaoLUL played) is popular right now?
Threads is becoming popular among users because of Twitter's reading limits implemented by Musk. However, there are other users switching to alternatives like Blue Sky and Mastodon.
I decided to deactivate my Threads account. Yes, I know it's still there and I can't delete it. But at least it's away from public view.
Nakakairita how the influencers/celebrities inorganically generate engagement by posting dumb questions... which then gets recommended to me. Balik Mastodon na lang ako where it's peace and quiet.
On the fence with deactivating threads, as (thankfully) influencers haven't spilled over their junk content threads onto mine.
But with the fediverse coming extremely close to threads, i might deactivate soon without even so much of a "hello who's there" post on threads lmao
Metaβs βfriendlyβ Threads collides with unfriendly internet
βIf an account or server, or if we find many accounts from a particular server, is found violating our rules then they would be blocked from accessing Threads, meaning that serverβs content would no longer appear on Threads and vice versa,β she said.
βWith federation, the metadata that big platforms use to tie accounts to a single actor or detect abusive behavior at scale arenβt available,β said Stamos. βThis is going to make stopping spammers, troll farms, and economically driven abusers much harder.β
I like how Meta (and an ex-Meta) is framing interoperability with the fediverse that they are the ones that's potentially going to be the problem, lol.
Surprised to see some activity on our Raddle sister community, albeit from non-PH posters that were amused by the MMDA's choice for an acronym. π
At least it's not about MILF, again. π
Funny thing is, the next article I posted was about the MILF, completely unaware that it followed the MMDA one.
So Angat Dam is reaching critical levels with El NiΓ±o just around the corner.
Time to do the John Lloyd-Sarah Geronimo rain dance and let all the offkey singers belt out their greatest hits.
I sometimes wonder if desalination is a viable solution to our water problems.
But then again, it might be more cost-effective to just build more dams to store water during the rainy season.
I'm not that educated on the subject, but last I've read (sparse and a long time ago), is that these plants cost a fuck-ton of money. We'll see how it goes. Now that you mention it, might as well watch a docu on this.

No amount of #copaganda can change my #mind.
Normal ba na agawan ng isang 13 yr old na agawan at itago ang mga laruan ng 2 yr old? Pag may bagong toy kasi ung kapatid nya, sinisira, tinatago o naagaw nung kapatid nyang 13 yr old.
Ah, oh. You need to give the talk. If you can talk to your thirteen year old in a way na hinde accusatory or pagalit.
Is is possible that she/he/they need attention, and maybe talk it out?
Hi, from lemmy.ml, a socialist planet, they say. lol
Crossposted from the orangered place:
It seems many of my workmates have resigned for greener pastures. Parang gusto ko nang mag-resign sa current ko dahil mababa yung binigay na salary increase recently. I've been looking for other jobs sa ibang companies, pero not sure kung saan ang better. Baka i-lowball nila ako sa offer hehehe

Ano ba magandang pangalan ng boyfriend???? Charrr π«’ Good morning, Lemmy peepz π
Why do websites insist on using this font (Roboto, I think)? It's very hard to read.
It's also the font on our ModMail, which explains why I often do not check our inbox.
Personally I prefer Archivo Regular 400 and upwards and depending on use case, point size of the type can vary. The light versions are too thin imho. Futura and I do have some saved font collections but i forget the names. As long as the spacing between letters is good (aimed for readability, not for Taylor Swift quotes, with no attack on Taylor herself), shapes easily contrast from the background, provided that proper color is used too. Eh, but I'm just mindlessly rambling at this point lmao.
Also, the all white and thin font is painful to look at (sorry). No option to customize to a high-contrast layout option? Me thinks Roboto would do well say in a dark background and neon colored font (thank you Microsoft VSC)
Capriola and Montserrat used to be my go-to body fonts when I was still blogging. Granted, the audience was just me, but I thought it was very legible and looks good on a wall of text.
Not something I would use on a formal document, however.
I am not sure if I should be doing this, but hell....
For the handful of us who've moved (temporarily or otherwise) to lemm.ee, there's currently a consultation going on about defederation from Meta's Threads. Upvoting the post means you're in favor of defederation.
EDIT:
I was wrong in calling that thread a vote. Changed "there's currently a vote going on about defederation..." to "there's currently about a consultation going on about defederation". At any rate, it's not a vote.
Lemmy ML just put the hammer down and said kthxbye to threads link
Yeah, it's kinda expected from lemmy.ml to do that. The only other instances I expected to act right away are lemmygrad and hexbear. But lemm.ee? Caught me by surprise, lol!
Supporting lemm.ee's decision. Big companies rarely do good when invited into independent spaces.
Grabe... mukhang abot-Baguio ang simoy ng hangin rito ngayong umaga.
I'm really not used to working on my supposed day off, I'm feeling so lazy and unproductive at work right now. And I'm not particularly motivated to work on a good day lol.
Pro tip: Stay the hell away from lemmy instances that do not have the modlog feature.
Watching The Addams Family rn and this movie is one scene away from being an x rated film because of the charity auction scene lol. Couple goals talaga sina Gomez at Morticia.
Anyone tried squabbles yet? Is it good?
Good evening, peeps.
if i didn't try i wouldn't have known that i have such a talent in making roux (mukhang champorado)
