All of that, mind you, with absoultey no evidence other than specuation and their own cooked-up conspiracies about modlog actions or taking and twisting things wildly out of context to fit their made-up narratives so they had someone to say they 'caught' and should be killed.

"We have to worry about the optics or the politics of it." they probably said.

I lol'ed

    In Dutch, we actually sing something like "rain, rain, go away, don't come back until I say so." We keep our promises here 😤

    (And on the warm days we sometimes request some rain, it's not banished forever)

    I mean, yeah definitely! But it's also somewhat annoying from time to time. Especially for the smaller stuff, like figuring out the way a battery is removed from a specific device... At least I know I've had a lasting impact on the world, I guess

    Even better when someone explains something to me, that I had figured out by myself weeks earlier and explained to that person. Like, dude. This happens so often at my job :') the people are nice, but not always the brightest

    I've had a couple of years of therapy, and am waiting for some other orgs to make contact with me after an intake I had yesterday. But that's mostly for myself, anything related to my siblings I think I cannot easily initiate.

    When trying to load my subscribed feed, more often than not I get an error. It tries for about 20 seconds but then times out. This happens with infinite scrolls too, it takes a while before I can actually see new posts.

    While this is much more common on this Lemmy instance (feddit.nl) than e.g. my alt account on lemmynsfw, the official web-UI doesn't have this issue at all, nor does Photon (at least, the web-app hosted at ph.feddit.nl).

    There doesn't seem to be a difference between 4g, 5g and wifi, and turning on/off rethink dns doesn't change anything either. I've also tried toggling the https over dns option, which again does not have any impact.

    Reboots, force stopping and clearing cache also do not have an effect.

    If anyone else experiences similar problems, or has a potential solution, I'd gladly hear them.

     

    ⚠️WARNING⚠️ certified NOT-A-SHITPOST!!

    This is a petition from EU citizens, who believe conversion therapy should be explicitly illegal in the European Union. If this petition reaches 1 000 000 votes, and at least 7 EU member states have reached their own "threshold" of minimum local votes, the European Commision will be obligated to consider this. So please, if you are able, vote on this Citizen's Initiative, and share it with others! The submissions close May 17th, 2025.

    Below is the description on the Initiative page:

    Objectives We call on the European Commission to propose a binding legal ban on conversion practices targeting LGBTQ+ citizens in the European Union:

    Conversion Practices are interventions aimed at changing, repressing or suppressing the sexual orientation, gender identity and/or gender expression of LGBTQ+ persons.

    Such practices, due to their discriminatory, degrading, harmful and fraudulent nature have been qualified as torture by the United Nations, and are currently being banned in a growing number of States.

    The EU plays a key role in the protection of fundamental rights and should take actions to fight against all inhuman practices. The Commission should propose a directive adding conversion practices to the list of euro-crimes and/or amend the ongoing directive on equality (2008) to include a ban on these practices.

    Furthermore, to fight against the legislative moratorium, the Commission should also enforce a non-binding resolution calling for a widespread ban of conversion practices in the EU.

    Finally, we call on the Commission to amend the Victims’ Rights Directive to establishes minimum standards on the rights, support and protection of victims of conversion practices.

    All member states should introduce a ban on conversion practices or review their current ones.
