Keep protesting for the people of Iran. These brave people deserve justice!


Hi, Mod here.
You should be interested in visiting our partner community, !world@lemmy.world - it is a similar makeup, but does not permit internal US news or politics.
The threadiverse is not huge, but it’s big enough to fit people with many different interests. You’re going to love it here.


Why do humans allow cats to ride in their arms?

Dead internet is only a theory. Like gravity.


I’m really curious about this too.

It has been public for a long time that they have access to your contacts and metadata (who you talk to, how much, when, from where, etc.) That was bad enough. But this is the first time I’ve heard about accessing message content. Really chilling.

I like Tesseract. Photon and Alexandrite are also great (although Alexandrite is a bit out of date, but I haven’t had any issues). Also check out Quiblr maybe. It has a very different feel.
