Ugh, just went to the Talk page of the Alley of Angels article (the actual page has been changed to a redirect). It’s very depressing.

Don’t forget: they also banned /r/cth so that it would look less partisan when they banned /r/TheDonald.
I mean, I will think it’s funny when Berhaw collapses due to a struggle session leading to a circular firing squad. I’ll even laugh. But I don’t have the time or energy to contribute to it.
Or it means this random guy spent way too much time on Reddit.
Yep, if people were reading this through hexbear, they wouldn’t even be able to down vote you. Now they just have to do it through their startrek.website accounts.
Hexbear is one of the oldest Lemmy instances after Lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml. It was created back when Lemmy didn’t even have federation, so it makes zero sense to say it was set up to spread propaganda; there was nowhere for it to spread.
This is the best bit I’ve seen today.
It’s the Rumsfeld doctrine.
I actually mostly agree with you, especially in the context of Mastodon. Medium sized instances blocking other medium sized instances make the fediverse a more diverse place and make what server you’re on a meaningful choice. But this is more like mastodon.social blocking kolektiva.social in terms of dynamics. The instance sizes make it not as healthy.
Hey, landlords and billionaires are a protected class!
Nah, NATO and Russia can both be bad. Of course, I remember back when liberals used to criticize Dubya for “with us or against us”.
I kind of like Cloudnine’s ergoeomic keyboards. They’re fairly inexpensive for a split mechanical keyboard, but I like most things about them. There’s a full size (huge) and a TKL (merely large).
The configuration software is Windows-only, and also not very good, but you don’t have to use it for anything.
I do agree that digrams/trigrams turn out to be the most important thing in this kind of layout. The MessagEase layout seems to get a lot of digrams right, even if it’s only by accident. I think the real problem is that we don’t have a very good model for the relative costs of things like non-alternating thumbs and sliding from the same box after a tap. I think the optimization algorithm would probably not be that hard relative to quantifying the costs of different placements.
