@Kolanaki @Nexy Just conjecture, I’m not following that particular subredit but I can see even considering it well this is the difference between lemmy and reddit demonstrated, NO TOLERANCE FOR OPPOSING VIEWS.

@Nexy @Kolanaki Probably a game subreddit which is going to attract minors is not the best place to discuss sexual perversions.

@PeriodicallyPedantic @Yingwu This is what I meant by Reddit being more tolerant of opposing views than lemmy.

@lvxferre Yes bad behaviors are on all sides, how do we reign in that human tendency towards self justification and aggression and get to the point where we can discuss or even argue if we must, facts and ideas, based upon their merits alone without so much emotional overtone?

@5714 But there because it’s divided into groups, those of us not interested in atheism never even look at it.

@lambda @x00za Well for what it’s worth, there is Redox, a Posix compliant kernel written entirely in Rust. There are some other aspects of Redox I don’t like, chiefly it’s use of a microkernel, which, while it makes portability better it exacts a performance penalty, and of having all drivers operate in userland, perhaps better from a security standpoint but again exacts a performance penalty.

@lvxferre @sunzu2 On the other hand, if you banish all opposing views all you’re left with is an echo chamber and stagnation, no progress.

A good example of this is LiPoly, a twit on a Lemmy instance, downvotes every post I make.

For what it is worth, I have a laptop with a touchscreen, Ubuntu Mate works wonderfully on it.

Could be their total intolerance for opposing views, don’t see that on Reddit but it’s rampant on Lemmy.

@LiPoly And so the downvote to even this comment proves! 🤣

@LiPoly Everyone votes me down for that, well ok, but if YOU call out the Jews for slaughtering Palestinian children, to jail you go. You know that’s true.

@LiPoly It’s funny how unpopular the truth is amongst liberals.

@LiPoly Yes there are more servers there, but there you can’t say what you want to without fear of going to prison.

@LiPoly @Blaze If no one outside the EU cared there wouldn’t be so many crying liberals here today. I’m in the USA by the way.

I’ve tried to bring up a Lemmy Instance but the instructions and documentation just are not clear. I want to bring it up with the instance itself not on the same server as the web server and the database, but it wires everything to localhost.

State owned means the state wants to control open source, can’t see how this can possibly be a good thing, you know it will mean funding with conditions.

If worse comes to worse, you can always just remove the symlink of /etc/resolv.conf which presently will point to something in /run/systemd, and replace it with a static file with known good name servers in it. You’ll lose having a DNS cache but at least your machine will function.

@maliciousonion You can go into network manager and specify different working name servers, you can cat /etc/resolv.conf to make sure it is sane.

Fact that you can still ping but not resolve means your name servers aren’t set right.
