Now now. The B in beer never meant borders. Let Shininghero have some Belgian beer , if that’s what they prefer.

Edit: Or as we would say in Sweden: Of course the Grabb should have Belgian beer.

Indeed! But let’s be the change we want!

Do you have any good mastodon, pixelfed or peertube or other fediverse recommendations to follow ? I’m still new here so my feeds are pretty monocultural (to borrow an agricultural term).

Thanks you for letting me know that my interpretation wasn’t completely off base.

Well I have an idea and its a bit archaic but it just might work. Local homegrown news bulletins. Like how punk rock bands and other subcultures back in the day spread around. Registers and news, and compilations of cool sites you and your group of friends or “club” have found. The old internet had loads of sites or BBS’s that were link lists.

It doesn’t have to be janky paper magazine’s. But communities need to engage more in genuine material and sites. Remember happy tree friends? No algorythm spread that. Kids did! Same thing with meatspin and all those crazy sites and content. Word of mouth is crazy powerful. Like take peertube for example, finding content you like there ain’t as easy as on YouTube. But if you in a group / forum honestly recomend something or someone you found, chances are someone like minded that didn’t know of it, now finds it. But we can’t, on the other hand, go around and spam everything we find.

So monthly bulletins of content, sites etc in a forum would be my 2 cents.

No clue.I just found his insta on duckduckgo and the preview, behind the "LOGIN , USE APP " looked legit.

At least reference the damn artist.

it’s Pierre Javelle , and the piece is called “Pump it”.

I don’t have Instagram but I found his: https://www.instagram.com/javelphoto/

I think Alk is referencing, the concept of perverse incentives. Without explicitly saying it. It’s a concept, or a way of refering to an incentive structure that gives un-desirable results, in economics.

Example: When clicks give you ad revenue. And hurt kittens nurtured back to health gives the most clicks. People start hurting kittens, so they have more to nurture back to health for clicks.

Edit: my example is unfortunately a very real thing. Multiple channels on YT have been found to do it. Someone else will have to find the articles about it. I don’t want to ruin my day reading about it again.

Well it was a joke, but it seems like a lot of people did not get it.

If the IBD folks don’t unite under this answer they are probably living with bidets.

Very funny joke, but I don’t agree with the division sign. Its supposed to be either a / or \ depending on which way you want to divide.

As with any Art, of course I want people to see it. But as you said it more about the connection rather than a number besides a siluette of a person(follower icon)

Like this post! So many likes and encouraging comments.

At least it feels more real.

It doesn’t have to become that. Just like in a group of friends or in any community, if good behaviour is promoted and bad behaviour is shunned, a culture can be maintained.

Thanks I feel welcome! The rapport on Lemmy feels a lot better than reddit did. When looking at it as a whole. Reddit does have some very supporting sub’s but lots of trolls and people with chips on their shoulders.

MVP right here! ^

That webpage was basically impossible to view without consenting to third party cookies, some EU legislature malicious compliance. Does anyone have a transcript or footnotes?

I mainly choose to host images there because I wanted to set up a CC:BY wallpaper repository, figured the target audience (Linux users) would find it more natural. And that it would be a less intrusive experience than most other wallpaper hosting sites. And you can just clone the whole repo if you want.

Wer macht das nicht! Sie bestehen schließlich aus den beiden magischen Zutaten Fleisch und Ball.

Swede here dealing with the same realization. Although continental Scandinavian is a Germanic language and share the same ancestry as German, eg proto-Germanic, and thereby shares a lot of similarities, it’s not mutually intelligible. I can how ever often times pick out some words and with some bending and shuffling around get a gist of what’s going on. But only if it’s presented in a meme format.

Thanks for the kind words
