… didn’t realize how the fediverse worked at first

Same here and all if my accounts are easily regex-able so the hard coded blocks definitely have something to do w your ability to be received by the normies.

upgrading to a newer release of fedora used to be so problematic that It made me switch to Debian because of its slower years long iterations seemed preferable to fedora’s months long iterations.

I stayed w Debian until I had stop using Etch and had to go through the entire effort of upgrading to a newer release again; but this time it was much worse that it ever was w fedora because I had almost a decades’ worth of tweaks and customizations to my system so I couldn’t remember all of them at migration time.

Parallelly w Etch, I was using mandrake and its iteration cadence placed it between fedora’s and Debian’s and its migrations weren’t entirely smooth either.

I understand why now it’s not possible, but at the time i wished there was a foss os that I could install once on my computer and it stayed there until the computer’s hardware died while staying perpetually up to date.

I’ve since then modified my behavior to make such migrations as painless as possible and I started using fedora 43 on a new cheapo computer so i’m excited to find out how much closer we’ve gotten to fulfilling my old wish. Lol

My inner teenager is also rolling his eyes at me in pity that my life at middle age has gotten so small that I’m excited about upgrading fedora on my laptop. Lmao

I’m going to be doing this in the next few days and I’m SO GLAD you posted the how it was solved.

For a second there I was afraid you were going to leave us hanging like they used to do on forums where they updated saying it was fixed but not how… Or worse yet w a dead link. Lol

Likewise in fallout; he’s aging REALLY well and I hate that he looks younger than I do despite me being literally decades younger. Lol

I bet it’s like that xkcd comic about competing standards since there seems to be more than necessary.

It’s hard to imagine why they would remove it; I can’t think of a way that this topic would be objectionable to anyone.

It’s eye opening everytime I try lists like this out. It never fails to break something that forces me to recognize how trapped I am I’m in these captured walled garden software ecosystems; especially Google’s.

I bet they to some kind of focus group testing to come up w ideas like this.

The Iranians should rename it like this. Lol

Happens to me when I walk into another room. Lol

.world is like reddit for some. they hate the mainstream narratives but stick around anyways for “content”.

down to 46 now.

it’s fascinating how reliably liberals respond so quickly at the beginning of a post’s existence and then the votes slowly go up to positive territory in the hours to days afterwards.

it’s also fascinating how the liberals engage so rapidly with these posts when they don’t exhibit the same respond to most everything else. it’s like they go out of their way to down vote and don’t bother engaging w anything else.

it’s like maga inception with liberals accusing maga of doing the same thing that liberals are doing.

the recent latin american elections and the deplatforming/capturing/gating of social media are proving how much technological sovereignty matters and i wondering if it’s even possible since technology requires standardization through governing bodies that are also proven to be capture-able.

– assuming that haven’t blocked op already. lol

this is going to play out like the others that have used encryption on their computers; with them in jail for years on end for contempt of court.

are they still shooting themselves in the foot if there are currently 5 such examples, but we’ve only detected one and by accident?

following leftist & radlib influencers on social media makes me suspect that the brainworms implanted by almost a century’s worth of efforts – like cointelpro – have taken root into western culture since many of those brand new influencers didn’t exist weeks/months before have a sudden swell of subscribers/voters and their channels are dedicated to contradicting the leftist/radlib influencers instead of their own organic content.

imagine how many other things like this exist in the fediverse and haven’t yet been discovered; i bet most never will be.

soup kitchens for the rich and soup kitchens for the poor is equality… lol
