What would change practically if I switched instances, like how would my day to day be different? I honestly do not know much about the fediverse.

Thank you for the link!

The thing that always gets me isn’t necessarily the setup, it’s just the ease of access with Netflix or D+. If I want to re-watch all of Daredevil, it’s just there. I don’t have to download anything, it’s just ready whenever I feel like watching.

It’s sheer laziness on my part, but I accept that.

I’ve never heard of either of those so I have some research to do lol

I’ve honestly given that some serious thought. A mini pc or laptop as a dedicated media server or streaming device wouldn’t be a bad idea at all.

If pirating tv/movies was as easy on Apple TV or a gaming console as Netflix is, I would drop it in a second. I’m paying them exclusively for convenience and to fund my laziness.

Italia-chan for the next pope

There’s a lot of good subreddits I miss. Not enough to go back, but I get it for sure.

Unrealistic, MAGA voters don’t question Trump

I know it’s just a meme but if you’re reading this as a minor with parents who deny science/therapy, talk to your school counselor. They are there to help you and will work with you to find resources locally that can help. They may also be able to speak with your parents on your behalf - with your consent - to explain the benefits of counseling or therapy.

Happiness and mental wellness is a fundamental human right and you deserve to feel better, even if your parents don’t want to help.

Serve over ice, or not

I drink my horchata warm because fuck ICE

The capitalists got him, guys

This lady used to own my house

Is there a good short story or anything with this theme? I love that idea but don’t know if I’d want to read a whole book about it lmao

As someone who had to google to figure out who RMS was referring to, this sequence of events was wildly unexpected

This is the future liberals want

Gills it is

Bummed that it came across that way because I absolutely do not feel like that.
