See rules 5, 6, and 7 in the sidebar.

Are there any sites like Lemmy or Reddit that are more intellectual with no memes and no downvoting? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 17 points 6 months ago

Tildes fits that description. The posts are text-only or links to websites. No memes.

I use that site in addition to Lemmy, not as a replacement but a supplement. It's just a different flavor of discussion.

It's invite-only but I can give you an invitation code if you're interested. Take a look, see if you like it, and send me a private message if you want an invitation.

Maybe it'll be the SWiitch.

Why does everyone hate Cloudflare? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Cloudflare's 1.1.1.2 blocks known malware domains, so that's better than 1.1.1.1 unless you want nothing blocked.

If you want to block ads and trackers in addition to malware, try ControlD's 76.76.2.2 .

Better still is to use encrypted DNS if your device supports it. I like NextDNS or ControlD for that, as DNS-Over-TLS or -HTTPS.

I want to talk in an American accent but how can I transition into it slowly for people who know me without them noticing a sudden change? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 17 points 9 months ago (2 children)

As an American myself, I encourage you to keep your natural accent. We're a nation of immigrants built from people who originated all over the world. So there's not just one recognizable accent here. Nobody's accent is superior to others. I've known people from other countries who are self conscious about their accents. In response, I tell them honestly that I appreciate the way they sound. Variety is the spice of life, as the saying goes.
