Email is pretty centralized at this point https://cfenollosa.com/blog/after-self-hosting-my-email-for-twenty-three-years-i-have-thrown-in-the-towel-the-oligopoly-has-won.html
He's the only person I've blocked. I went on the other day and saw a tweet was hidden, clicked to view it, and when I saw it was him, I immediately closed the tab. Twitter is really good at providing me content that makes me want to leave ๐
Yeah, this is why I would prefer to remain on Lemmy unless there's literally no content, which doesn't look like it's going to be an issue :)
Personal preference ๐คท
If I had known Lemmy existed, I would have been here a couple years ago, but thanks to spez I'm here today!
(edit: fixed misspelling)
I think they WILL want it anyway, but that's why I'm here :)
Hi, thanks! I've seen occasional Slack channels that are full of animated reactions and gifs, but Discord is so, so much worse.
I love forums because it's hard to miss something. It's easy to ignore subforums or mark them as read, and there's no realtime pressure. With Discord, I feel more likely to miss than catch anything. I've had notification badges that after 30 minutes I still couldn't figure out how to make go away. There's a mode to disable animations, but you can't see them again without disabling the mode (why not a button for each gif??). I tried joining a queer Discord but everyone's pronouns are a different font in a different color in a different size, all the time, with no way for me to simply the UI on my end. It really seems to me like it's only popular because of mobile apps.
I'm ace-spec non-aro and nonbinary as well! Gray ace and polyamorous, though I used to feel more identified with demisexuality.
Thanks for making this post! I (30NB) was diagnosed with cPSTD a little over a year ago and just this week my therapist is referring me for ASD screening. I find Discord utterly overwhelming and I like the reddit/lemmy kind of forum stuff over twitter/mastodon.
I'm looking forward to lemmy making progress! I'm a SWE and I wish I could contribute but I'm focusing on EMDR and general trauma processing right now ๐
I guess the difference between PKMS and KMS to me is primarily who's using it. So yes? ๐
