This mentality smells of "just say no" for drugs or "just don't have sex" for abortions. This is not the ideal world and we have to find actual plans/solutions to deal with the situation. We can't just cover our ears and hope people will stop

By the same logic, if I were to show you a photo of a child kissing a puppy, you'd be able to "demonstrate" that all humans are children and essentially loving and caring creatures? That logic is not logic-ing, friend

They really didn't even try that to be honest. Bethesda has remained far behind and they don't seem interested in changing direction sadly

As someone who also just started out with Warhammer 40k (and also got onboard a few friends with this lol) I’d say the Eisenhorn trilogy is a great place to start.

It's basically a space thriller. And while extended lore is present, it's not required to enjoy the story. Whathever is mentioned gets explained and makes the whole trilogy very beginner-friendly.

I just found this yesterday so I cannot properly give a review on it, but I found Logseq which seems to be a privacy-focused knowledge management and collaboration platform. It seems very promising and reminds me somewhat of Obsidian

Clearly an excellent boy, 12/10 for sure. Thanks for sharing and a virtual hug to you, I'm sorry for your loss

Thank you for the updates and thank you all for your efforts with this amazing app, which is still my favorite way of using Lemmy so far!

Have a cake, you more than deserve it 🎂

"I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."

I also often question whether the thing I'd like to post needs to be posted (and in the process, I talk myself out of it)

Lmao serious 'fuck you' energy.

Out of curiosity I went to the project's page and saw more info on why they don't take donations:

Free. Open-source. For users by users. No donations sought. If you ever want to contribute something, think about the people working hard to maintain the filter lists you are using, which are available to use by all for free.

I'd like to add to the sentiment of this post by saying that if you ever used any of those amazing websites, I'm sure the developers will highly appreciate it if those with the means could consider contributing to their projects.

We all know how greedy and shameless YouTube can be, and yet those developers give us incredible products for free. And if you ever saw the entitled requests of some users on their projects' pages whenever YouTube implements some changes, and they have to rush to fix their code, I'm sure you would appreciate them even more. I've personally seen quite a few projects being abandoned because of the sometimes thankless job of being a developer, and I would hate it for any of these to suffer a similar fate.

So if you can and are willing, feel free to join me in contributing to:
