kbin was my first too. RIP.

agreed on Mint. Fedora seems to be more on the new, cutting edge side while Mint is stable and reliable. Much more beginner friendly because there’s less likely to be errors or niche issues, at least in my experience.

Bandcamp

I’m on like 3 different ones, mainly defcon.social. All of them are under 5k users. I use a desktop app called Sengi to show feeds from all my accounts at once and group the federated feeds together, so yeah I can watch lots of posts fly by or scroll through at my leisure.

And yeah I pretty much just watch until I see a post I wanna favorite or boost. That’s why I say it’s the best way to find new accounts you wouldn’t otherwise have thought to check out.

Generally my local and home feeds are much slower. So on mobile, when I’m done catching up on those I keep refreshing the federated. I would be so bored without the federated.

“federated next to useless?” nah it’s my favorite. best way to find new people to follow

I like Tilix

unfortunately in my experience reddit still has more niche communities than can be found on lemmy, probably bc they have more users. they have more subreddits for specific games, cities/states, mental illnesses, spiritualities/world mythologies, art, music, and book genres… the number of times I’ve searched for a community on lemmy only for it to not exist makes me hesitant to accept this video’s claim. reddit still has more niches than us. we just don’t have the numbers or activity.

I wouldn’t say MSN isn’t a source but I see what you mean about the author info at the bottom. Looks like I also missed the part at the top of the MSN link that said it was originally posted at TheDesk, so I guess it is legit. I’d only searched up other sources just to cross-check the original to see if more than one outlet was talking about it and check its validity, so either way yeah it checks out.

msn has that name recognition. never heard of the other people.

It would certainly make me pause until they explained themselves

yeahhh, on second glance… OP’s username leans towards trolling

Yeah I definitely want to see how they respond

welp guess they’re not getting my donation this year

edit: this source looked very sus to me so I had to look up a more reliable one. Seems more legit at the MSN version.

Piped.video is an option directly in the browser. Or Invidious.

On mobile (android) I’ve seen NewPipe as an option

Not everything done so far has been legal and there are multiple ongoing cases suing Trump’s actions. Book bans, healthcare, and anti-trans legislation are the first that come to mind. People and organizations (e.g. ACLU) in positions of power are trying to stand up for the common person where they can. If I had more money I’d donate to them.

sometimes teaching be like going the opposite way and turning complex theories into relatable shitposts

recorded ebaumsworld videos reuploaded to youtube

I’m so hungry…

I’ve also seen people turning to Mastodon for fundraising. Kinda wish the headline would say “social media” in general instead of just insta and tiktok but the point gets across. Shit is fucked.
