   Google chrome, firefox, edge, ie, opera, are now tracking you.

   ddg is my favorite search engine and it has great restutes. It has a built in video player too! The only problem is that i have to use google in a blue moon to get the results it need. Duckside! Brave! Lunix!

• Moderation on Lemmy is a fucking joke

  A few weeks a go I posted a meme with the caption "My wife out-drinking everyone at the table-- Our unborn son:" [picture of Tom the cat in the womb]. I understand abortion is a touchy subject for some people, but it's not like I was advocating for or against abortion. After that, I posted a meme complaining about the lack of specificity of the rules on Lemmy and that post also got removed. That's enough to let me... Source: 8 months ago

• This whole lemmy universe has me quite confused, but I would like to utilize it. seeking assistance

  Im using the Jeroba app on android first of all. It just seems like lemmy is a complete and total mess. So many contradicting things Im seeing.

I'm on lemmy.world but I post and comment on lemmy.ml and 10-15 other instances all the time. Think of instances as "copies" with different users and posts, but they all interact with each other (with a few exceptions). Source: 11 months ago

• I'm so lost. Is there an easy mode to the fediverse?

  Whereas the top three on my subscribed feed are from [Games@lemmy.world](mailto:Games@lemmy.world), [gaming@lemmy.ml](mailto:gaming@lemmy.ml) and [gaming@beehaw.org](mailto:gaming@beehaw.org). My subs on lemmy are mostly related to video games, but this points out something that confuses some folks coming over from Reddit - lemmy.ml and beehaw.org both have communities named "gaming" and they are separate...

• Division of labour : rest should be fair

  Lemmy has a lot of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmy.world, but you donnot need to register on all of them just register on one, and you can access all of them. Source: 11 months ago

• The Canon Cat, the forgotten 1987 alternate-reality Mac (2019)

  Lots of 2-key keyboards exist, and are even for sale inexpensively. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=2+button+keyboard&t=ftsa&iar=images Not very convenient for having both buttons near your thumbs, though. I've been trying out the related SwyftCard for Apple //e on the izapple2 emulator. https://github.com/ivanizag/izapple2

    ./a2sdl -model swyft.

• De-Googling, So Far

  If you're using the DDG Web site, and a bookmark, can you force the language in the bookmark? Example: https://duckduckgo.com/?kl=us-en&kad=en_US. - Source: Hacker News / 2 days ago

• I love my wife. My wife is dead

  > Why not both? I don’t see the problem with having multiple types of relationships with people, including sex. May I suggest retiring to The Villages in FL? They seem to have the multiple partners thing worked out. https://duckduckgo.com/?hps=1&q=the+villages+florida+sex&ia=web. - Source: Hacker News / 4 days ago
