It does make comments' load more manageable

Obligatory warning that taking that thought to its extreme will result in an echo chamber, which is exactly how certain other instances have become what they are now. But... yeah, it is one of the tactics of people who espouse certain beliefs to "flood the zone" leaving the other side so exhausted from pushing back against all the little lies that bit by bit, cm by cm (or inch by inch for Americans:-P), the conversation shifts to favor the side that is willing to engage in such horrid tactics to "win" arguments (by mostly avoiding arguments at all and instead just bullying those who want to truly dialogue on matters of substance into giving up all attempts to try to have them).
- this reference is to the Alt-Right Playbook series from Innuendo Studios, a fascinating and extremely well-done, quite in-depth look (yet presented very accessibly, in bite-sized chunks that you can consume while e.g. eating) at many of the tactics used by the Alt-Facts crowd (including GamerGate, Alt-Right conservatives, and tankies). A good way to start is this one: The South Bank of the Rubicon

Weird how USAID funding got cut and suddenly this guy had to shut his channel down because it wasn't making money.

I heard on the grapevine that Voyager is working on Piefed support.
It's in beta right now. I'm using it to comment.

No politics? Shit, I needa find me a nice app, fast. I am a fan of Jerboa for its simplicity, but it's Lemmy-only, I reckon. I think it's an "official" Lemmy app (could be wrong, tho)
Not just no politics but the ability to both have far less of it while still reading up on it when you want! Tbf a true "no politics" would be nearly impossible - e.g. is an OC painting "political" if it depicts an image of Trump?
The best features of PieFed are going to be in the web UI for awhile until app devs catch up. In addition to Voyager as someone mentioned, there is also Interstellar and several others, as well as a Thunder fork (but not checked into the main code available on the App store yet).

Voyager looks like it'd fit better on iOS. But maybe I'll give it a try, eventually
There's Summit for Android

You can keep DPRK, I'm ok with this

Would you rather it be a ghost town, or a bustling city of clowns?

Still more people than I can ever talk to or get to know. It's enough.

It IS super weird how you have no evidence of this relationship and yet suggest it, yes.

I'm sure the timing is just a coincidence, I know it was because he didn't pay his taxes on the revenue from youtube from the video he made about it @1:04
