Can I blame the tech for using massive amounts of electricity, making e.g. Ireland use more fossil fuels again?

Pointlessly snarky comments are one of the worst parts of Reddit and Lemmy and I fully support mods putting a stop to that. I guess the important part is to be transparent about it
Why are we using his first name
Mastodon also has the benefit that other platforms try their best to federate with it
Policing just tone is how you get very polite and nicely-worded conversations about exterminating untermenschen
“human biodiversity”
What I think would be cool is following hashtags from Lemmy, or a.gup.pe groups

The culture’s a bit too reddit-like for my taste, but it’s alright and some communities are better about it

In this case the heat is something data centers spend even more energy and water on to dispose of
That + mostly sticking to my subscriptions (coincidentally, none of them tech or politics) makes it feel like I’m on a completely different Lemmy
Maybe it’s an accident but you left out your fellow students and the teacher, in my eyes the most useful resources
