What's with all the low res images on Lemmy? It happens often enough to be annoying.
I mean here is a perfectly informative graphic, if it were readable.

I'm sorry for how your father treated you, and did not value you.
Adam Young has a great podcast, the place we find ourselves, and there's a great episode titled your kingdom (find it here) .
He has this powerful idea that, 'by harming you, evil unwittingly prepared you to rule your kingdom better than if you had not been abused.'
By building community in response to a hurt you feel keenly, you are following this principle.
I wish you all the best.
Hey, that's a good point!
I think they're keen to buy something new, so my main excitement is hey look a shop where you can start with Linux in the first place.
But I could also end up showing them how to repurpose their current laptops as media servers or something, which would be cool!
This is what I'm excited about. My parents are in the market for new laptops, I'm going to see if they will take a framework running popOS and make the switch to Linux. It's incredible that this option is now so approachable.
I was always wary about reddit being a non-opensource/non-federated platform. But the communities there were incredible. I remember when it really was like the 'front page of the internet'. But I could not believe the user unfriendly decisions they made, and the app ban was the death-knell.
Besides, Lemmy is awesome! Not much need to go back.
I'm so inspired by the Fediverse, the social options we have these days are just magical.
A decade ago, Diaspora got press because they were going to build an alternative to Facebook. But there was hype and then there was disappointment.
Now, everybody knows how terrible legacy social media is. Everybody knows. Sure, most people are still stuck there. But these vibrant alternative places exist! The options are exciting! It is so much better than it's ever been!
Just keep building. This is great, and it's only just started.
Hey, true! I had no idea. I'm on Voyager, if I own it on Firefox it's fine!
