Dang are you me? Galapagos is one of my favorite Vonneguts. I recently finished Hyperion cantos too, and am now on book three of the Xeelee sequence which so far have been very good and give similar vibes as Hyperion.

Someone else mentioned Blindsight which is maybe a top three for me. Different tonally than the Hyperion Cantos but still excellent. Same goes for Children of Time.

That's great thanks for sharing this

Why can't you just download them and delete the copy in Google photos?

No one person can control everything.

Doesn't seem to be stopping you from trying!

Eh, I think you're projecting. He literally owned his instance. He was playing with his own ball at his own house and you got "butthurt" because he didn't want to play with you.

It's no secret that a lot of people are attracted to Lemmy because they felt Reddit mods were too overbearing, but some of us like Lemmy because we didn't think Reddit mods were doing enough about the overbearing users.

He said "this" experiment, not "the fediverse" which I interpreted to mean his instance (or perhaps Lemmy).

That said, I'm honestly curious what do you care about his "toxicty" if he's not an admin of your instance? You don't seriously believe you have a right to dictate what he does with his own hardware do you?

I'm glad we agree.

What did you interpret the premise to be? I read the post when it was up, and it read to me like OP was saying essentially that too many toxic users and not enough admins willing to stand up to them make the overall experience not fun.

EDIT: Which is accurate in my mind at least when it comes to Lemmy

Man I am the complete opposite. I need my browser to display the Web with tons and tons of tweaks and adjustments and filters in place to make it actually readable for me. Rawdogging the Web in 2025 is wild.

I wanted a very 90s web-feeling GIF of a TOS science division badge

Then I'd consider this silly little guy a success.

I don't disagree, but OP didn't ask for trend predictions. Anyone who tries to convince you "things" are worse today than than they were in 1995 is either trying to gaslight you, or doesn't consider the experience of the LGBT community to be as equally valuable as everyone else.
