Holy run-on sentences. I agree with you, but it was done, it's already in the museums. Signing petitions and raising awareness of agencies/museums that are trying to get the stuff back is probably a better way to funnel your frustrations.

Just because Egypt is in Africa doesn't automatically make Egyptians black. Look at a map. Northern Africa and Egypt were just as much part of southern Europe and the Middle East.

Neither is Pennsylvania, this map is way off.

With amount of times I have have to write down my address for work, I would love to live in donkey town.

Pretty sure the votes don't work on the ads. Why would they, every ad would get down voted into oblivion and not show up on people's feeds. It reminds me of the fake comments on Facebook ads. "Pre-ordered my shwami blankets, can't wait!"

More of their bullshitery. I had the audacity to use my browser to click a reddit link.

This is why I had to block them from my home feed. Way too many random posts that, because of the nature of the "rule", aren't very interesting.

 

I'm using Firefox mobile and pulling up any webpage is very slow. One of the big things is searching using the address bar, has a load time of at least 10 seconds (using ddg as default). Switching default search engines does not help.

One thing of note is that in a private tab, everything works normally. I tested multiple times using the same method as above.

Hopefully this can be remedied with a simple settings tweak.

I've also noticed that I'm losing interest in gaming recently. Whenever I get notified by steam that something on my wishlist is on sale I just look at it and move on. I started playing chess again for the first time since I was I kid and it's been keeping me satisfied.

My hope is that if enough people block an instance, it'll just die out over time from not enough interaction.

I just dropped Sync. I've used it for reddit since the app came out. Even paid for the premium version years ago. My purchase didn't carry over to the lemmy version, and I noticed the app collects data for marketing now. Switched to Voyager, it's not as fluid as Sync but I'll get used to it.
