I agree

Tired of winning yet, farmers?

I’m surprised they haven’t been overrun by bears like that other anarcho-capitalist commune

Every time a Soviet citizen jerked off, they added a few million to the victim count

That’s what I get for being literate

I have wanted to visit China for so long, but my idiotic government keeps being a pawn of the U.S. and provoking China for no reason, so we’re one of the only countries in the area that doesn’t have visa-free access to China…

Nope, banned immediately

I’m not sure if these books are available in Germany, and if it’s appropriate for such a young child, but my mom used to read a series of books from Nikolai Nosov called “Neználek” in Czech with me.

It takes place in a communist society. This was my first exposure to communism, and I remember asking my father why we can’t just get houses for free, because it seems like it would help everyone… to which I got a lecture about how communism can never work, etc, you get it. I was like 5 lol

Anyway, that would be my recommendation.

Can’t wait to learn how to play the piano with my cock

100%. It’s even more annoying when tech nerds in charge refuse to improve the experience, wanting to keep their little bubble of superiority closed off. Then they whine about how nobody wants to use their perfect solutions and prefers centralized commercial offers

I have a background in programming and UX. The fediverse is just horrible and confusing to use.

For example, take Lemmy itself. Some instances are federated, some are not, some instances ban other federated instances, etc. on Reddit, I can just go to r/piracy. On Lemmy, I want to go to an equivalent.

I look up “piracy.” Okay, there are 10 options. But the one I want to go to (piracy@dbzer0) is not on the list, even though I know it exists, because its instance was banned by the instance I have an account on. And even then, depending on the instance, you might be able to see and subscribe to a community, but the last posts visible to you will be from 6 months ago because the newest posts are not federating to your instance, and there’s no way to know or fix this. At this point, the average user would say “this piece of shit website doesn’t work, I don’t want to use it” and leave.

The truth is, the average user wouldn’t even get to this point. They want to use “Lemmy,” then don’t want to use or understand how to use an “instance;” like I said, they want to use “Lemmy” not an “instance.”

Lemmy fucked it up from the beginning for having instances that can create their own communities at all. They should have had a central URL (like lemmy.world for example), and then let people host communities only. That way, all of them would have been connected to a “Lemmy” service, while still being able to control their own community’s data.

At least on Mastodon, you can ignore the federation aspect almost completely. But the truth is, the Fediverse is just extremely poorly designed, and it will never get mass adoption unless fundamental changes are made.
