Damn that might be mine too. We didn’t get to have video games when I was little. Then I discovered PC gaming via Runescape😂

Tildes is a good example of a healthy community that allows for differences while encouraging good faith discussion. They police for tone instead of wrongness and it’s been working out over there. People are generally happy with the discourse.
A lot of it is in site design, too. There aren’t downvotes, because they’re not needed. There’s a lot of proactive moderation coming from the community by using comment labels. Labels help push comments up or down, and some require you to type a reason why, which encourages thoughtfulness instead of knee-jerk hivemind reaction and pile on. The only publicly visible label is the “good” one, so it keeps things positive. The “bad” label alerts mods and has a cooldown time limit, so it’s less likely to be abused. I believe once it’s used on a comment, the person can no longer reply to it, which helps avoid negative back and forths.
Too much growth too fast for sure! Much harder for Lemmy to create its own culture and maintain it. Much harder to discourage toxicity. Notice how healthy communities are often smaller.
Sucks for niche communities but they’ll get slowly spun up over time, and in the meantime they can be found in other places including Reddit. I don’t personally need everything to be a one-stop shop.
Aww I didn’t know we had this. Subscribed for next year!
That is crazy. Nice work! :D
That’s weird! I go on Lemmy daily and it’s been feeling a lot busier IMO.
He totally is! I’ve noticed Blaze’s posts a bunch -well assuming he goes by the same name lol. He’s doing a great job at shepherding and getting the info out there. @Blaze@sopuli.xyz
Also I took a peek at some of threads discussing the paywalls and noticed there seems to be increased awareness about Lemmy, dare I say interest😆
Oh. I didn’t realize I was subscribed to lemmy.ml. Let me migrate outta here
Nah, unless there’s some type emergency going on, you don’t have to worry about anyone but your assigned patients. Management can’t write you up for not catering to patients who aren’t under your care. If management complains, first of all it’s ridiculous, and second - it’s all talk. They don’t have shit. Direct other patients to their assigned nurse.
I don’t like being that person (“you’ll have to talk with your nurse”), but some workplaces require it due to lack of fairness and teamwork. Otherwise you get taken advantage of. So don’t feel bad.
And if management gives you shit and starts targeting you, talk to your union. Always have a paper trail. Or if no union, look elsewhere for better bosses to work for.
I like Bo! Short for Bo Peep too
RN = Refreshments and Narcotics
This is generally my belief. There is no dichotomy. Life is full of gray areas. Also what is morally virtuous or superior to you may not be the case for others. Take religious differences, for example.
I have the Shokz OpenRun Pro. Well worth the money, no complaints. I wear them all the time at work (hazard issue to have in-ear earbuds). There’s a pause button on the side when I’m trying to give somebody my full attention, or I’ll just take them off and wear it around my neck. Lasts through a 16 hr shift.
I don’t do turkey and cranberry sauce, porkchop with applesauce, paté with jam/chutneys… something about meat and fruit sauce. Well but I don’t like chicken and waffles either. Oh, and bacon donuts!
How bout something like onion jam and cheese?
I said the same about fruity beers, sours, lambics, (also found white wines too acidic) and now I like them lol. Sometimes taste changes when you get older.
Yeah I don’t really relate to the complaint because why does all your fun have to come from a single website? Does your online content have to be a one-stop shop? I just hop around Lemmy, Tildes, read sports news, maybe watch some cool videos on Youtube, etc etc. And when I’m bored with internet, I have other stuff IRL to do. Yeah I’m just not treating Lemmy like an endless scroll feed like Reddit or Instagram. I just check out what’s new (I might pop in a few times a day), participate if I want, and move on.
Right? Personally, I want people who come here to care. Not the masses.
Anecdotal, but I think there’s some kind of immunity component. My parents grew up in a mosquito infested country. When we visited said country, us kids were bitten up while my parents were fine. If it was genetics, you think it would’ve been passed on to us. The locals joked that mosquitos like “new blood.” You could see tourists with itchy red bite reactions while the locals were fine.
