    Most of my coworkers tell me I’m weird because of my morning routine. I have a 30 min commute to work but I wake up 2 hours before work and, apparently, that’s not normal because I should be waking up 35 minutes before work, rush to the workplace to check in just in time and then start my day.

    But you know? Waking up with time, enjoying my breakfast, taking care of myself with my skin routine without having to rush and then leaving to work knowing that I am on time even if something happens gives me a peace of mind that they simply can’t understand.








  • Long story short:

    A snowflake created a frontend for lemmy in which they added a hidden blacklist of communities, people and even words that were shadowbanned for everyone using it without informing first, so if you used it, you’d be seeing a censored version of the fediverse based solely on one person’s opinion about what you should be seeing there.

    Some smart people discovered this and the community didn’t take it too well for how it was made (in particular, how it was not optional but forced on the user).

    The dev of the frontend wasn’t happy about it and ragequitted with a letter in which they basically say that we are all mad here (except them) and that the fediverse can’t be saved because we are all pissed about this (as if they were our one and only saviour or some crap).

    Edit: forgot to add: of course, the people and communities targeted on the ban were, coincidentally, lgbtq or allies and you know, anything that would piss a fascist.
