This community is a place created for the people of Melbourne and Victoria. We are a positive, welcoming and inclusive community. We might not agree about everything, but we always strive to stay civil and respectful.
The focus of our discussions is based around things that affect Victoria, but we are also free to discuss our local perspective on wider issues. Or head to the regular Daily Random Discussion thread to talk about anything.

In the meantime I as an isolated disabled adult will lose access to all of my social media accounts plus YouTube, Steam and Github.
Possibly also Lemmy if they decide to go after us. And potentially my Yahoo and Gmail emails (and by extension access to whatever is connected) plus whatever is on their storage. And potentially my Dropbox and Flickr accounts. The list keeps waffling and expanding.
