Yeah, I know. But “what does greek mythology say about using windows” would have been less funny.

If by that you mean connected my computer account to a Microsoft account, nope, I did no such thing.

That’s weird. I don’t get the prompt at all, but I do have a button in the lower left corner that says “Sign In.” Maybe it’s because I’m on Windows 11?

Crime dog is back!

That’s the neat part, I don’t. If there’s anything really important, it will leak into memes, or I’ll hear it from family members, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard a piece of news and thought “Oh, it’s a good thing I know that now.”

I can see where you’re coming from. I already blocked the news because I come here for memes and don’t like following the news anyways, but yeah, if you’re looking for non-political news, I guess that can be rough.

Oh, you support a mainstream candidate, huh? What else, do you like eating babies? Why don’t you just admit you’re evil incarnate and vote for my favored candidate instead?

I haven’t really noticed much, but that’s because I’ve taken to blocking political communities once they start bothering me by putting too many article links in the front page or being generally rageful.

Probably that other comment (right above this one for me right now,) with this being meant as a reply.

Aww, I was hoping it was a replica. That would have been really funny.

If they can downscale enough, they should be able to pass this test.

Wouldn’t that be three in a thousand?

Do they do that? I’ve had my laptop for a while, and it’s never happened to me.

Windows updates aren’t disruptive if you actually update now and then. It’s not even that often.

You’re not using a command line web browser? I wouldn’t either.

Makes sense. You don’t exactly have atheist scriptures to study and discuss, and you’re not going to have any atheological discussions on how nature reflects the lack of a god.

To be clear, I’m not trying to say it’s unfair for atheism communities to have those rules. Your community, your rules. But if I’m seeing those posts, I’m going to be bothered, and if I respond, I’m going to break the rules and bother everyone else. Better to not see it in the first place.

In the same way, I’d expect atheists to block a Christian community if it were trending - though I’d be willing to meet them in constructive debate in such a community if the rules permitted it.

Blocking is a community is how I control my personal feed, it’s not a condemnation.

29 communities, mostly news. I’m here for memes, not links to articles.

Also a few atheism communities, because I’m not a fan of seeing posts bashing my religion from a community where the rules forbid me from saying anything in its defense.

Just Lemmy, and I only moved to Lemmy because of the Reddit protests.

The only reason I use Twitter is so I can follow Sonic and Project 06. I don’t think anyone’s copypasting that to Mastodon.
