For anyone getting hit with the Washington Post paywall: https://archive.ph/jrlIP

You're more than welcome to post on shitty food porn. There's not a lot of activity and the votes will let you know if it's the right place (I don't remove posts unless they're breaking rules). It kind of has two interpretations - pictures of shitty food (self explanatory) or food porn that's shitty (ie bad lighting, bad presentation, etc).

Or let me know if you start an "average food porn" community and I'm more than happy to link it in the sidebar of SFP.

Not the OP, but I've got the following bots blocked and it massively improved my Lemmy experience.

• TushyBot@booty.world
• bot@lemmit.online
• linkbot@lemmy.link
• video_feed_bot
• bOt@zerobytes.monster
• rlululemon@lululemmy.com

Good news then, because there's a second half to the story!

I gave up on online dating last year and I won't be back. If that means I'll end up dying alone, I'm honestly more comfortable with that idea than suffering though anymore of the bullshit that's Tinder/Bumble/Hinge/etc. It's become such a miserable experience for both sides (men and women).

As someone who had used online dating on and off for 10+ years, I can tell you one of the big problems - money and greed. I know it's always easy to just "blame capitalism", but I've seen first-hand the paradigm shift from an actual useful service (i.e. a way to meet people that you would otherwise not meet) to the blatant greed it's become. The dating apps are so obviously profiteering off people's loneliness it's fucking disgusting. Back before Match bought everyone up, these services used to actually be okay for what they were.

In my opinion, that's way better dude.

100% agree. I really enjoy the app and Kuro has done amazing work, but this logo misses the mark tbh. I'm definitely no graphics designer (just someone who knows enough to make shitty memes), but the alignment is all over the place with this logo.

Wait, hold the fuck up. David Tennant is returning as another Doctor!? I haven't watched much since the Matt Smith era, but how the hell does that work with the DW lore?

Where did all the 90 minute movies go? I'm up for a longer movie if it can hold my attention (I have the same problem of dozing off) but 90 minutes was the sweet spot. Especially because you could make a late night (10pm or after) snap decision to watch a movie and still be in bed before midnight.

I'm really digging the realistic take on the yellow suit. I think it works well.

Also, I hope there's going to be a scene where he rips the sleeves off. Long sleeved Logan feels wrong 😂

I've been trying to kickstart four communities because apparently I'm a masochist, but I've posted more in the last month than I did in the last 10 years on reddit. It reminds me a lot of my first couple of years on reddit (circa 2010/2011) and then my posting died off because you'd either get drowned out by the noise (hundreds or thousands of comments) or ignored in favour of a one liner joke.

I've seen a lot of people comparing Lemmy to early reddit, and I don't necessarily disagree, but I feel like there's one important distinction between the two. Even early reddit was driven by karma. There just wasn't as much people >10 years ago. I find the lack of karma on Lemmy refreshing. How it's gone back to the old forum way of just counting the number of posts is fantastic. It's a weird habit to break out of though because part of me still wants to go "I got no upvotes, time to delete" or "I'm getting downvotes, better delete my post".
