replace world news with US news and its pretty close

[–] deur@feddit.nl 13 points 1 year ago

I woeld argue that "news" should be replaced with "US News without mention it is specific to the US" ;P

And furry art... Or was that just my feed?

[–] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was not prepared for the nsfw furry art.

[–] kuneho@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

few months ago I was worrying about the lack of furry stuff here, but fortunately it is slowly catching up

[–] JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

I haven't seen any with nsfw turned off.

[–] idunnololz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I keep hearing about this but I never get to see any. I mean I'm not into it but I feel FOMO from people discussing it lmao.

Someone make a word cloud out of all the comments. The biggest ones will be Capitalism, Linux, and Beans.

Lemmy looks like that with some of the filters, to avoid that you can.

  • Use a different filter: All - Top 6hrs
  • Block bots
  • Use own subscriptions.

Plus you can block bots on the account level, rather than just with a search.

When i was using reddit, my feed looked like:

Cat, cat, cat, meme, cat, cat, cat, cat, cursed Minecraft, cat, cat

Yeah. It is a great description of your posting history.

Nothing wrong with your posting history, just puzzled as to what your intention was in posting this.

Why is the last 'memes' not aligned? Why is news the only one with a capital letter? Why is nothing centered?

[–] Diabolo96@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You forgot that rare horrible news that make you feel soo sick you instantly just close the the app and spend the next 10 minutes forcing yourself to not think about it but it only makes it worse so you look for any random video to watch to try and forget.

[–] Halosheep@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Damn, I think I'm too jaded by the internet. I've read/seen some horrible shit but it never made me react this way. I just keep scrolling.

[–] Diabolo96@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I guarantee you you'd feel something like that after reading the title of an article that contain the gruesome description of how a 6 years old child was found after being SA'd by her uncle.

[–] Halosheep@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I literally watched a video of a man being beheaded last night. I'm afraid I've been completely desensitized to horror.

[–] Diabolo96@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

I never saw the appeal of such videos. I saw fucked up videos as a teen because my friends would share them and push each other to watch them as some kind of twisted adulthood passage rite ( just dumb kids being dumb ) but nowadays, i can barely watch any gore.

Nonetheless, when people tell me about how desensitized to gore they are i always think they'd be great medical staff on emergency services.

lemmyo kinda needs a better algorithm.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Joke's on you. I'm in dark mode all the time.

[–] asceticism@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I'm okay with this

[–] zorro@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Needs more memes
