Not really interested in anything that even remotely mirrors “engagement” driven algorithms seen on other sites. It’s predictably resulted in siloing of information and the explosion of “rage-bait” content that’s pretty much taken over. Lemmy being different than that is a boon, not a deficit.
Could be worth looking into Misophonia. Basically it’s an irrational anger response to specific noises that vary person to person. I don’t know enough about it to say how it can be dealt with, but it may be something you could find a specialist for.
I think it’s less “this line is for emergencies” and more “our online process could takes days to get a response, here’s a line to a real human”.
I’m assuming this is more a comment on the modern news cycle than about Reddit. Hell, most things barely last a few days outside of their immediate time frame, let alone a week.
Some things just completely skew your home page with just a single viewing. I am very careful with my watch history, only watching one off stuff from other sites in a private window. That seems to work well.
Go into the viewing history and wipe it. Then maybe view some more normal stuff to set it on a good track. That should give a good reset for her, though it wouldn’t stop her from just looking it up again, of course.
Everyone has “custom” pronouns. Some just match possible preconceived notions about them.
True!
You tried, little bot.
This is not a comment on you, but I do the same thing and have come to realize it’s at least in part a response to being judged in some way (or feeling judged at least) over things I shared with my family, so now I just don’t share.
If it’s important to you, it might be worth having a conversation about why they are withholding and, if it’s for similar reasons, addressing why they feel that way and assuring them you’ll do your best to keep them from feeling bad about sharing.
Online content always seems to provide sub-par quality, even on good connections. Don’t need to worry about that with downloaded media.
Streaming services are bound and determined to make themselves Cable TV all over again. We had it good for a little while, at least.
Far Cry 3 was so frustratingly dumb and yet so popular. The gameplay was fine, but everyone was blowing up about the stupid ass sub-villain with his Philosophy 101 ”zingers" in “White, suburban YA saves ‘savages’ from themselves with horrendous war crimes” the game. It was really irritating.
As others have stated, it’s very little to do with being “prudes” and much more with being tired of horny anonymous posters just being horny. If it were something informative, that’s a whole other thing.
Those are findings specifically from industrial areas, and specifies that it is levels over 75db that are dangerous for the most sensitive individuals (younger people). I’m not sure what the db exposure for a service on one’s yard would be, but I doubt it’s on the same level as working in a factory.
There’s finally an open github issue that seems to be acknowledged, but it’ll be some time before this feature (if ever) ever gets implemented.
Fwiw, the devs seem quite open to (even directly requesting) people coding features they want and having them added into the main code in future versions. So if anyone is able and willing to make a working version of that for Lemmy, it could be added quite soon, really.
I couldn’t leave my app in the same spot, otherwise I’d keep opening it (or trying to open it, after tomorrow) out of habit.
It’s not a suggestion. It’s what they’re doing right now.
When you’re selecting languages, try holding ctrl when clicking the ones you want. It should allow you to select more than one.
They would still control it more than they did in Netflix, so it’s still upside in their eyes.
