I've never heard the phrase but I'm 10000% positive that's what it means.

I'd rather learn from slightly unreliable teachers than teachers who belittle me for asking questions.

New copy pasta just dropped

I've found questions about niche tools tend to get worse answers. I was asking if some stuff about jpackage and it couldn't give me any working suggestions or correct information. Stuff I've asked about Docker was much better.

I feel you, but I've asked it why questions too.

Quality content as usual. I appreciate the thought you've put into this and agree with your reasoning.

1. Stop making blanket claims about instances you like or dislike, no matter how fair you feel they may be, and don't fall for the bait of others doing it. This is just drama and is exhausting to read about.
2. Instead of suggesting people "join Lemmy", say things like "Join Lemmy at programming.dev" (or whatever instance you yourself are using). Sure, "but picking a server is hard" will always probably be a complaint, but leading with the one you personally use is the best way around it. If you're on a hobby focused instance (like I am) then maybe suggest a generic instance to people outside of your hobby. Don't be afraid to suggest lemmy.world. It's better to suggest the biggest instance than endlessly debate about which one is the best to suggest.

It's true and it's such a distraction. There is so much worse shit going on right now in the US government. I'm tired of not calling it a coup. It's a coup. They're trying to act like the judicial branch doesn't get to determine what is and isn't constitutional. So much shit.

As bad and as cringe as it is for the "Gulf of America" debacle to happen, it's just genuinely not worth the headspace right now.

Pretend you blocked me. Below is sort of what it looks like in their UI. Personally I like it this way.

• Other user: Heyyy

This is for group chats. Blocking still prevents DMs.

I hate news articles so much. "The (underlined) Associated Press said" ahh, this must be a link to the actual quote, I'll read that. Nope! Just a link to their website. At least it's not as bad as other sites that link to other random articles.

Still! A screen changing is still something that grabs your attention.

Why don't you just tell me if you think I've misunderstood something?
