What do you think the voting age should be? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] weker01@sh.itjust.works 3 points 19 hours ago

At least 500 years old. Everybody else is just too damn infantile and stupid.

Why the heck did nobody yet develop an alternative like we've seen with SimCity/City skylines?!

They would make so much money and fuck EA.

Years ago you needed to send them a check every month. You also mostly got paid with a monthly check.

For some (historic) reason bank transfers are very underutilized in America. I think it gets better though? I don't know am not 'murican.

Yep. That's why I stopped distro hopping years ago.

Was ist mit der Luftqualität in Stralsund los? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Gerade aus Langeweile auf Google Maps die Luftqualität angeschaut. Fast überall in Deutschland und Nordfrankreich gut bis sehr gut. Aber es gibt einen klaren blob um Stralsund.

Too much US election content on Lemmy? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I hope this is a good place for this. A few weeks ago I started a simple experiment: Block every community in the All feed that is about the US election in some way.

I thought this up after a thread about the Biden debate, as someone kindly (not really kindly) informed me that I should curate my own experience here. I thought about it and realized just how much election/politics stuff there is on the front page. It was quite hard blocking communities I like, especially 196 on blahaj.

Now the quality of my feed did go up in some ways but it's very slow. I also realized that I am feeling a lot less rage/anger than before when scrolling lemmy. I didn't even realize how much the constant political stuff from another continent affected me...

What is your opinion on this? Is Lemmy really filled with too much US political rage bait? Should I continue with my zero tolerance policy?

It would also interest me to hear an American perspective. Is there more or less politics here, on other platforms or real life. How does rage/hate affect you when scrolling through Lemmy and does it take a toll?
