This whole thing reads like a telephone game where nobody wants to take any responsibility.

merdaverse@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•‘We are dying slowly:’ Palestinians are eating grass and drinking polluted water as famine looms across GazaEnglish2·2 years agoYou’re right. I fixed it now but it seems that all the links next to the comment are broken in this thread, for me at least. The links next to the name point to different comments in the thread. Maybe a Lemmy bug
merdaverse@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•‘We are dying slowly:’ Palestinians are eating grass and drinking polluted water as famine looms across GazaEnglish2·2 years agoWTF are you even talking about? Your comment I answered to was this, which contains no quotes.
The only problem here is that you made a dumb mistake, refuse to own up to it and move on, and instead insist that everyone else is talking out of their arse.
Edit: fixed link to comment

merdaverse@lemmy.worldOPto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•WSJ lead editor annoyed that they don't control the narrative anymore: "We owned the news"4·2 years agoYes, I gave her the benefit of the doubt as well, but framing it as “we were the gatekeepers” and seeming annoyed that they have to be more transparent about their process is an… interesting way of presenting the argument.
I didn’t find the full context for the video, but I don’t think she was talking about the problem of misinformation. Even if they have credible sources that 99% of experts agree on and a transparent process, misinformation will still be spread (see climate change denial). So I think that’s a different problem entirely.

Tone deaf posts like this are a good reason why people hate vegans. And this is coming from a fellow vegan. Palestine isn’t going to avoid famine by switching to vegan now; that’s completely insane! And it would still be starving even it was 100% vegan, due to, you know, a fucking genocide happening.
and no ones saying to not have a discord. Just use it for what its meant to be used as. Social interaction. And stop using it for what it very obviously isnt, which is a information repository.
Exactly. The problem is admins encourage it to be used for technical discussion as there are channels dedicated to that. And Discord has picked up on the need for structured discourse and have reinvented forums, just shittier and more closed.
The way to prevent all this information going into a black hole is for admins to stop encouraging Discord for this kind of usage, in addition to users moving to more open alternatives. Godot for example is moving in the right direction. It has recently opened a shiny new Discourse instance, now the only thing that’s left is to burn the Discord forum with fire.
This. There are so many OSS projects that are over-reliant on Discord and it will bite them in the ass in a few years.
Yeah, I never understood the point of these nofap movements if you just substitute it with some other addiction like binge watching or doomscrolling social media. It seems like treating a symptom instead of a disease. If you fill your life with fulfilling interactions with people, hobbies and passions, you won’t even have the time for harmful addictions.
Well, apparently freeing yourself from porn enables you to make even more silly memes. Probably better to keep doing porn then.
