There are no recommendation algorithms for content, you are one! Search for communities based on your interests and subscribe to them. The Communities view of your home instance and Lemmy Explorer are good for that. Because Lemmy is decentralized, all discussion isn’t centered around one site like on Reddit, which may at first give an impression of emptiness.

I also wrote an extensive guide about Lemmy few weeks ago.

Welcome!

What might be the repercussions of doing this?

Oooh, absolutely nothing! No side effects whatsoever, it really improves your quality of life!

Yes.

Didn’t know this is his first PC build, I assumed he had built one before.

Another variation of that is claiming how getting sick repeatedly is somehow beneficial for getting a strong immune system. That ignores research, as children who have a lot of common infections early in life have higher risk of moderate to severe infections and antibiotic use throughout childhood. That also ignores viruses for which a durable immunity isn’t currently possible, such as COVID.

EDIT: Basically the immunity system doesn’t work like a muscle.

This could be out of Street Fighter.

Not a single one.

“Don’t compare yourself to others.” Everyone develops at their own pace. This also helps in building a good self-esteem.

Nope, I deleted my account in summer 2022 after it had been inactive since March 2021. I read enough about how unethical company Meta is, and enough was enough for me. I can find anything I want or need from the platform elsewhere.

It must have been somewhere around early 2020 when I was casually browsing Mastodon. I found about a federated Reddit alternative and got immediately interested. I registered to Lemmy.ml and in 2021 founded Sopuli when federation got implemented properly. And here I am!

My resolution? 1920 x 1080, same as it has been since 2010.

It totes doesn’t sound there’s any agenda hidden…

Even a potato can run Linux so regardless of a distro it should be all fine.

And God forbid if someone uses archiving sites like archive.is!

Why wouldn’t I? We are living in interesting times.

It definitely has to be summer. Around that time I feel very social.

It’s pretty concerning, as health authorities in the USA don’t seem to do enough to prevent the situation from getting worse. The dairy industry doesn’t want its profits to be touched, and several politicians seem to be more concerned about the economic impacts. Various far-right groups basically created the framework for their anti-science actions with the COVID pandemic and various anti-vaxx groups that existed before it. Therefore they will double down in their efforts to resist any kinds of mitigation efforts because of “freedom” and “do not comply”. Hell, many of them are buying raw milk in hopes of “gaining immunity” and of course “owning the libs”!

It could be said that I am already preparing. When at work, doing groceries, hitting the gym and so on, I am wearing an FFP2 mask (equivalent to N95). This is exceptional here in Finland, where many people have drunk the Kool-Aid of “COVID being over” fed by the THL, our equivalent to your CDC. The only people I have seen masking actively are people collecting bottles from streets and parks! The THL has done similar blunders about public health messaging and “studies”.

I am not losing my night’s sleep because of this, but who knows what happens in the coming months?

Amen, Sopuli wouldn’t federate with such instance either. It would introduce too much problems. Bad idea.
