“NaCl” pronounced like “Tackle” or “Salt” or just “Knight”
Black AF. He/Him. CisHet
I build PCs, Arcade Sticks, and Xbox Controllers.
I’m a lot of things. FGC member. Fantasy & Martial Arts Fiction Writer. Martial Artist. Mechanical Engineer. Friendly MF. Socialist. Christian. Designated extrovert and friendly jackass. Stubborn MF. Gamer, especially fighting games.
Rap, post hardore, anime, cartoons, comics.
Let’s get it.
Blocking regional communities is one thing, sure.
I was partially joking, but anime, cartoons, sports, and some tasteful/ethical NSFW are all topics I’m hella interested in but don’t get much play here. There’s basically no boxing/MMA/basketball/football here.
Each day i feel too normie for this place
I’m not into the skinny models that most porn features and a lot of irl porn comes with a host of ethical issues,
Wait, you’re blocking porn, sports, and anime?
Those are the fun parts…
It varies wildly from person to person, and my wife and I work so well as partners cause we have vastly different lists of what we consider exhausting.
Specifically for me?
Talking to strangers? No issue. High intensity games? Let’s do it. Complicated or arduous manual labor? Hell yeah.
“Scaring the hoes” is a catch all term for when the things men enjoy in private or with other men create environments that are inhospitable to women.
I’ve always heard it in a comedic context, said with nearly the same tone as when Eustace berates Courage the Cowardly Dog.
Damn, that’s fucking awful. What female-centric communities existed? I know what ones my wife follows on Reddit but not their analogues here
Edit: Nevermind. The Reddit communities i found with analogues here are dead AF. Even the big pooular stereotypical topics like Fashion, cooking, weight loss, wedding planning, cozy games, skincare, hair styles, TV shows, romance books, dating, are all dead here.
Goddam, Lemmy users literally scared all the women away.
A real life example of “Stop scaring the hoes”
I am increasingly unable to take this place seriously.
This makes sense considering who is here, but I would be very interested to see a Lemmy/kbin demographics survey.
Increased rates of neurodivergence on a leftist founded Reddit alternative?
It’s less “venture to guess” and more “I’d bet my life savings on that being true.”
Shit. I’m here with ADHD.
Mastodon. The people are kinda weird, in different ways than I am weird, but if I post consistently enough I’ll build a community or something. I bounce between there and Twitter cause neither community is 100% satisfying
MBin, cause I want to be able to access Lemmy without being on Lemmy
Fighting games, easily. Where you have 2 people you have a scene, no matter how old or obscure it is.
I think it’s a facet of the largest Lemmy servers feeling (being?) more ideologically homogenous, itself in part because of how niche Lemmy still is compared to Reddit.
Many of the users came here after the API died and so made joining here an explicitly ideological choice.
People aren’t here because their friends are here. Not really. Not yet.
They’re here cause they want to be, because this is important to them or their beliefs or their identity.
That’s totally valid and good and fine. But u should know and expect that when posting here, especially on the biggest or most general or politically volatile communities.
I’ve got negative interest in trying any Unix/Linux based OS on my home PC and I’m ambivalent about FOSS, but i recognize that being here will mean that putting up with a certain amount of “Windows bad” that i just have to laugh and shake off or stop coming here
Sure! Your reasons are valid and I’m not asking you to defend them.
I certainly don’t like everything in any of those categories either. I’ve got slices I’m into, but yeah, the broad categories are def part of my interests.
