It depends really. If I lived somewhere where natural disasters were a common occurrence then I probably would. Luckily I live in the UK which, while not great in other ways, has a temperate climate. That said, if the south gets too much warmer then I am tempted to move to Scotland. I don’t cope well in temperatures above 19 Celsius. It would be one of several reasons though, not the overriding factor.
We have social housing in the UK which is rent capped and it gives people an element of stability. It can work well
As far as I’m concerned I’m not a grown up until I have a washing machine and dishwasher of my own.
This is why I’m flying to Edinburgh soon rather than taking the train (like I would prefer to). So much cheaper
How would you react if someone prints Jesus Christ, hanging on the cross with bloody hands and feet onto your favourite beer. With a face of pure agony and some letters addressing charity?
That sounds quite metal tbh for beer. I would give it a go.
Food and drink are incredibly political in general, this is just one aspect of it.
That seems so unnecessary. Why do they want to interfere with screen density??
I’ll be honest, I think I understood three words of your OP. Sounds like the general gist though is Woo so great 😃
Thanks for all your efforts, glad someone knows what they’re doing
What a nice seal of approval
Yeah this is definitely a risk if this platform keeps growing. I can definitely see this being a reason to switch off downvotes (some instances have already)
Not sure if you’ve seen the various Reddit cross posting bots but the threads they post aren’t very active. I think people see that it’s a bot and switch off.
By the nature of the community though there will obviously be questions on here that have been asked on other platforms. I think it’s mainly about trying to keep this place active and let it develop its own vibe (for lack of a better word)
Being able to eat a wheel of cheese without putting on weight!
From the choices in the OP though, probably skill check. Would help with imposter syndrome and job interviews
I’m never one to usually tip or donate to these kind of things online (only recently been in a position to afford it) but I’ve chucked in some cash to my instance. If we want this concept to work then we need to support it if we can.
I think as long as instance admins keep being transparent then people will feel comfortable with donating.
Just to say that I didn’t edit anything to sensationalise it, the headline is the title.
Sounds great! We don’t celebrate our national day to that extent (which I’m fine with personally), we don’t get the day off or fireworks.
We have fireworks and get togethers for Bonfire night on November 5th, but it’s not a day off. We have bank holidays spread throughout the year but they’re tied loosely to the church

As a member of Beehaw I haven’t seen any reason not to trust them so far. They’ve been transparent about why it was done and they’ve spoken with other instance admins.
Think we have to be conscious that this is all still at an early stage and generally it’s wise to give people the benefit of the doubt at first. I get the cynicism but this isn’t a privatised space- people across lemmy have been constructive and open so far, so maybe give them a chance?
Yeah I would agree with this. It’s good to know for anyone new coming in but should be taken in good faith unless and until a reason crops up to change that. Not seen anything like that so far.
That was just a typo. Beehaw has advertised itself as being a largely positive, safe online space. People who sign up for it would generally be considered to want that same ethos.
It’s not ideal at the moment but until the moderation tools improve it’s the best way forward if they want to stick to their ethos. I enjoy Beehaw and the admin do seem like they want to refererate when it’s possible to.
I’m on both Beehaw and Lemmy.world so I between the two I can interact with everything I would want to see.
I love the rain and cloudiness! It’s peaceful (flash flooding aside, that can suck depending on where you live)
