Oh there’s always side effects. But for me, they were absolutely worth the difference in how my brain worked. I became functional again. Also, the psychiatrist will tell you all about the side effects. Let them know what you’re afraid of. They won’t lie to you. They will help find the right chemical for your issues. Might not find the perfect one right away either. But it’s worth trying, in my opinion.
Yeah, I’m really only ever going back to Reddit for comic book movie news and /r/motorsportsreplays because there isn’t a good sub on Lemmy for that yet.
I'm not all that concerned with ACTUAL privacy/encryption but rather more concerned with lower-level things like stalking, harassment, employers doing research about their employees' non-work habits, insurance companies, etc.
I'm not talking about doing anything illegal and hiding from authorities who can use forensics on your data. Just general anti-corporate snooping and anti-harassment privacy protection.
Like, I feel more inclined to sign up and use something more like Raddle.me instead of lemmy because the owner of that site has a philosophical mission in favor of privacy.
I believe how it works is the comment from the user on the defederated instance and ALL child comments of it do not show up on your instance. So it’s as if that conversation just stopped after the last person from an instance that you’re federated with commented. You wouldn’t see anything from defederated commenters or the replies to them, even if they are replies from
Instances you’re still federated with.

She quickly discarded the bracelet, thankfully, and I swooped it up and it shall never be seen again.
But we were like… wow. Just… wow.
Oh they were. Because they are us.
Why does it have to be “profitable”??
So it can steal your credentials and hack your accounts! Duh!
I can only get so federect!
This is why we can’t have nice things!
I don’t see you.
That was the joke.
More important than that is how the Black settlement of Seneca Village was siezed through eminent domain, and razed to build Central Park:

This is cool! But I don’t want to fill out a google form.
I’m on board. I don’t care what anyone says. I’m gonna give it a chance.
What a time to be alive!

Same! Lemmy definitely feels like early Reddit. Before the mods were gods and before shills and spam and porn were the norm.
Yep. Lemmy is the future of Reddit.
Definitely not concern trolling. Just finally thinking about all this stuff. Thanks for the insight.
Is it like a grant then?
