  • The userbase. I don’t care much for anything else on your list, I think things as they are aren’t perfect but I’m ok with it as is. Reddit is the same or worse. But the userbase is different. Less trolls, more tech savvy people, more FOSS. Overall better answers, except on certain niche areas.

    Also it’s less invasive visually and mentally. Reddit is riddled with ads and links to other posts very much like YouTube has suggested videos on the side. I don’t need this information overload. Annoying. I used to be able to control it using Boost for reddit but hey, guess what.

    And if I really need to go to Reddit, I do. Nothing stops me from lurking if I want. Occasionally I use it, I think over the last 2 years I’ve posted like five times on Reddit.

    I like being able to choose what I want when I want it.


  • Okay I would ask questions for any amount of money unless they tell me first. The people I feel I would easily give money are also the same people who I’d expect they tell me first why- they wouldn’t be “hey mothra got some spare 100s?”

    To answer your question, I would easily give 10 to about a dozen people or so, 100 to half of them and 1k+ to only 3, and for a very good reason only. I didn’t even realize the number of people would halve.

    I’m obviously not an expert since I’m the airhead a few comments above who wouldn’t recognize a bomb in the ground. But 80 years is plenty to cover an object. Lots of things can happen. A couple floods or rainy seasons will soften the soil. Debris will pile up and rot over it. Animals may step on it and push it even further, especially if the soil is damp.

    My parents did some renovations a couple of years ago and left a large pile of old tiles and bricks in the backyard. The pile got reclaimed by grass damn fast and is half buried now. A small object over decades ? It disappears




  • Mothra@mander.xyztoAsklemmy@lemmy.mlHow often do you go to concerts?

    Never. I can’t stand the crowds and the loud music. And I don’t appreciate the crowds singing and screaming on top of the music either. I’ve been to concerts like two times in my life just because others insisted so much I joined them, and the experience was exactly what I thought it would be.

    I’m just not cut for them.

    I don’t think I bought band related merch ever, but I’ve seen some really cool stuff so that is something I would consider if the opportunity presented itself.








  • I think there should be a variant of this meme format that suits better. Bart is disappointed but also embarrassed and ashamed; Homer is trying to show some support for him (but sort of failing) . It doesn’t really match the spirit of the lines on this occasion though.
