Piefed and lemmy are both group actor based activitypub platforms, and Piefed is explicitly designed to be compatible with lemmy, simply because lemmy has the traction/momentum in the activitypub niche they both exist in.

The difference isn't protocol based, it's just a piefed design decision and one that could easily be changed if a dev gets the chance to put some time in to it.

"We have no idea how it got there, atop a pillar covered with the graffiti of all the people who have previously been to that exact spot"

Ok, somehow lemmy.world ended up on our defederation list.

I don't have the first clue how that happened, but I've removed it from the list, and content should start flowing again.

We run slightly behind on lemmy world posts, but we're talking minutes, not hours (https://grafana.lem.rocks/d/edf3gjrxxnocgd/federation-health-activities-behind?orgId=1&var-instance=All&var-remote_instance=lemmy.blahaj.zone&var-remote_software=All&refresh=5m&from=now-2d&to=now)

There's something weird at play there though...

Edit - It's not lemmy specific. It's impacting our piefed instance as well, which is 4 days behind on that sub.

Will look in to it!

I couldn't really say. Sometimes, I just get a feeling one way or the other

See if there's a front runners group in your area. They're an international queer running group.

So, here's the thing with kids, especially queer kids.

Generally, being awkward in this situation isn't something that comes naturally. They are taught the awkwardness.

And what you need to demonstrate to them is that you're allowed to be imperfect, and make mistakes with words and terms, and language, but that the mistakes are just habits, and that once you strip the habits away, you see each other for who they are. The habits will sort themselves out after that.

Not sure about the "fine with learning" part. I'm fine with learning, but learning isn't my primary motivation, but more like a bonus!

That being said, it did neatly capture why I chose CachyOS over Arch!

For those who haven't read through the context, the "social media platform" the OP is defending here is Kiwifarms....

Lemmy doesn't log IP addresses, and lbz doesn't require email addresses to register (though that can make resetting passwords challenging). If you're on lbz and you've registered with an email address, you're free to remove it if you have any concerns!

I'll add you if you like. You're welcome to online more mods after I do. Let me know

when I’m feeling sad, I find myself going on r/terf_trans_alliance, and then I feel worse.

That sub exists specifically to prey on folk like you. Folk that are struggling with internalised transphobia and self worth issues.

Transphobes (and bigots in general) actively seek people they can demonstrate their bigotry against. It's performative, to improve their in group cohesion, and it addresses their own self worth issues and let's them feel empowered.

That sub exists purely to attract people for them to prey on.

They're preying on you, because hurting you and folk like you brings them joy.

You stop going, because even though dealing with your own self image can be a long battle, it's a battle you can navigate without empowering them.

New camera in hand, we made a deal with some local gulls. We provide the chips if they pose for us so I can get some photos!

And didn't they oblige!

This fine gull is a Silver Gull (not a Herring Gull) from Australia, and you'll be pleased to know, the chip was caught!

 
 
 

Nicolás Mihanovich, an abandoned cruise ship sits moored on the bank of Rio Iguazú, Puerto Iguazú, Argentina, at the apex of the borders between Argentina, Paraguay and Brasil.

It was originally designed as a luxury ferry between Argentina and Uruguay, but plans were made to turn it in to a floating Casino. The plans stalled, and now the ship sits, largely abandoned
