Such people aren’t fans of the sport, they go primarilly to cause trouble in a group.

I think that’s football fans in general to be honest.

Monthly Active Users (MAU) is probably the best metric for the health of Lemmy. A lot of these instances that are shutting down may be single-user instances or ones that people spun up just to mess about with them.

However, please donate to your instance if you can, it doesn’t have to be much :)

Beehaw gives me weird, cult like vibes. You MUST be happy and positive, or you’re OUT. I’m probably entirely wrong, but that’s how they come across to me when I started looking into their rules when I thought about creating an account.

It could be useful to link to some relevant communities in this posts description if people do want to ask questions.

Probably about 2 minutes, but usually I never have to queue.

Seriously, it seems like their election campaigning goes on for years. I dunno how the yanks don’t just get fed up with it.

That’s fair enough. I haven’t blocked hexbear or lemmygrad as it’s kind of entertaining from a morbid sense. But lemmy.ml tries to masquerade as a generic leftist instance but has insane admins and moderators who have absolutely no interest in having other people’s views on their their instance.

They’re tankies, they’re pro-Russia, pro-China (to a bootlicking degree) and pro North Korea. Basically anything anti US/west.

They’ve been slurping up Russian propaganda and try and argue that the pro-EU demonstrations in Ukraine in 2014 was some kind of CIA op (because the notion to them that people would willingly choose western ideals is inconceivable) and that Ukraine is full of Nazis and Russia are the good guys defeating Nazis.

I’d strongly avoid blocking the Lemmy.ml instance in your settings. Hexbear and lemmygrad are also similar instances to avoid.

@WestBromwich@feddit.uk did you even know you’d been banned due to this comment?

Yeah, it was really noticeable when the clocks changed last weekend. Can’t wait for the lighter evenings again!

I hate winter, but not because of the climate (we get a couple of days if snow at best), but because it’s just constantly dark. It’s incredibly depressing. It’s already getting dark by 16:30 now.

“where one man… And one goat…”

It’s a noble goal don’t get me wrong, but cars are just way too convenient to get rid of for most that don’t live in the central zones of cities. Just things like taking your kid to their swimming lessons, evening activities, going to the tip and garden centre and dropping off at your parents en route, visiting friends that are several villages away, kids birthday party and then going to the supermarket after to pick up some food etc.

Something I’ve noticed is that people on Lemmy never seem to advocate for busses, it’s always trains.

As much as people on Lemmy love trains, they’re not replacing cars no matter how good the infrastructure is.

That’s good to know! I had it do my first interval workout today which was nice.

Yeah I recently read about the 80% thing too. It’s difficult not to just go a bit faster just because you know you can! Although I do like that the watch “tells you off” for going too fast when using the workout which is nice.

When you say overtraining, how much were you doing? I see some people running every day and I have no idea how they’re doing it, I try to stick to 3 runs a week, 4 at most, with a day off in between.

Just seen the context in the post description, hadn’t spotted that at first.

What’s the context here?
