I joined Lemmy back in 2020 and have been using it as [email protected] until somewhere in 2023 when I switched to lemmy.world. I’m interested in Linux, FOSS, and several other subjects.

    Numeric .xyz domains only cost $1 a year. They’re not great for things like mail because they’re often used by spammers (probably because of the price), but it’s great for cheap signed DNS hostnames.

    I point it to the server on my local network and use Wireguard to connect myself.





  • The responses the admin who added the bot gave to people’s concerns when they announced it, weren’t that great. (Link)

    The Lemmy.world admin disregarded all criticism and just said people shouldn’t complain, after just asking for feedback in the post itself

    Example:

    What a terrible idea.

    MBFC is already incredibly biased.

    It should be rejected not promoted.

    Admin response:

    Ok then tell me an alternative we can use in the scale for free.

    None? Then pls dont just complain complain complain… And dont suggest improvements.

    (Yes, I just took my old comment)






  • The Gaza Health Ministry is literally run by Hamas.

    I am aware of that, but HRW confirmed these numbers and so did many other organizations.

    And the UNOCHA is straight up lying. They claim only 23 Israeli fatalities in 2023 when the Oct 7th massacre alone killed 1,139 people, 695 of whom were Israeli Citizens (Not just Jews). This is not counting any of the attacks before or after Oct 7th, this is just the Oct 7th massacre alone.

    I’m not sure how you missed it, but the source clearly states that casualties of the ongoing conflict are not included because they’re not yet independently verified. That is also why I did not include those numbers myself. Excerpt:

    Casualties in the context of the ongoing hostilities in the Gaza Strip and Israel, which started on 7 October 2023, will only be added to this page once these incidents have been independently verified. Until then, reported figures on those are included in our Flash Updates and Snapshots. By contrast, data on casualties in the West Bank and Israel in other contexts is updated regularly beyond 7 October 2023.

    Hopefully you can see that this is just propaganda, right?

    I hope you realize it doesn’t just come from one side





  • Lemmy.world has kept open signups open during every large Reddit exodus while many others didn’t. It’s also decently reliable, has decent moderation and is well known. The reason why people didn’t move after is probably because instance migration on Lemmy isn’t possible* so they just stick with what they use.

    *Yes I don’t consider exporting/importing followed communities a migration
