That last sentence is the exact opposite of my experience having worked a decade in various retail positions. Aside from the people who were on drugs, I never had any big issues with lower income people, all the arrogance and assholery and entitlement almost always came from the douchebag in the Audi with the flashy gold watch, not from Peggy who came down to the store in the family’s broken down Olds to grab a pint of milk and half a gallon of gas… Lower income people tend to know what’s up, and be the most attached to reality. Money is what allows you to dissociate from the struggles of everyday people

We had ‘Snoop Dogg’ call us at work last week and leave a voicemail talking about some class action lawsuit. Wack

I use Bind9 on an OCI compute instance for all my DNS needs. I don’t use it in a container but I’m sure there is a container of it or you could sell set one up.

Woah thanks for the NetBox shout! Gonna check that out

SO is such a miserable and toxic place that oftentimes I’d rather read more documentation or reach out to someone elsewhere like Discord. And I would never post a question there or comment there.

I could arguably see sharing a few choice posts each day, but it seems like it’s always posts that have no votes or comments or interactions

Hate 'em and immediately disabled the option to view bot posts

Both lol

Wait shit I’m both of these???

Bummer, but kinda suspected that with all the talk about lag between instances. Thanks for the info

I don’t know enough about how Lemmy works on the back end - but maybe something like a PiHole blocking all traffic to the domains of instances you don’t like. I’m unsure if the device requests that data directly from the other instance or if the instance you’re connected to retrieves that data and sends it as it’s own.

On the website you can to go your account settings and there is a section for blocking users and communities

It’s feeding my need for content so I appreciate it

Exactly this, if we can stop them in their Embrace phase before they can get to Extend and Extinguish, we should be fine. I think defederating from Meta and Reddit should be any Fedi instances first priority. Though I’m sure some will think it’s a great idea as it’ll bring more users and content, but it’s only a good idea at first while these companies need the Fediverse, as soon as they don’t need us they’ll fuck it all over like Google did with XMPP

I’ve got accounts on 4 different instances just to see what things are like. Sometimes I want to see all sorts of posts, sometimes I want a feed of just LGBT-positive stuff, sometimes I just want to get off, different accounts on different instances for different things :)

Me

Ohh ok thanks, hadn’t heard of lemmygrad

96 pls

Sorry, I’m new here - “saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad account” - what does this mean? TIA
