I got banned from one of their communities for criticising the Chinese government. Yeah, I feel like all big .ml communities should be blocked as an indivisible part of the process of setting up a Lemmy account.

My favourite instance is peertube.wtf. As far as I can tell, it’s the most federated instance, so you can get to the most other Peertube content from it! Also it’s just funny that “wtf” is its URL! For channels, I like Triple Iris , Vex0r, and Slope’s Game Room

Honestly I’d love to set up a big “default” instance myself, but as soon as you become a big advert for everyone else to set up their channel on your instance, server costs will go through the roof. I’m in England and Peertube.wtf generally works better for me, but even then it seems to randomly crash and reload on longer videos like stream VODs, so maybe it is a geography thing.

Yeah pretty much

Last I heard, Trump’s own actions were tanking the popularity of his European equivalents across the board. Reform UK for example peaked in the polls about a year ago, and have been dropping ever since.

Yeah lol. That and wanting to lash out because he’s mad Europe called him out on his Greenland threat

Update: It’s fully back up again thanks to those who checked, and thanks to the admin if they read this!

The Chagos deal was going to be Starmer’s favour to Trump. The UK was going to pay to keep using it, just to host the US base there. It was essentially another conservative mess for Labour to clean up, and another example of Trump having a strop about something that he had previously been in favour of. I say go ahead and pull it: this is the perfect opportunity to have another bill and keep the US out of this one.

I have something of a game going on where every time the US peeves me off, I delete something that profits them.

Trump threatens Greenland? I delete Deviantart

Trump threatens Canada? I delete Reddit

The ICE shooting? I delete Instagram

After hearing about this I just deleted Brave Mobile and switched to Vivaldi. If it stays this consistent I’m going to have to save up for an Ubuntu Touch phone.
