@m0xee Say, do you want to generally talk shit and hang out?
I got telegram, discord, but matrix server is down rn. Open to suggestions.
@m0xee I'd prefer "no thanks" to fav and silence.
Say. do you know the movie "heavy metal"?
@admitsWrongIfProven
E-e-ehm… But I did write a reply — probably even more wordy than it should've been 😅
I've replied quite some time ago, I think in a few minutes after seeing your post. Is it not propagating to your instance?
> do you know the movie "heavy metal"?
Is it about a girl living in a small town who wanted to burn the church down, but then got saved by the town priest? Or am I confusing it for another movie? 🤔
@m0xee Whoa, it seems technology tore us apart, instead of bringing us together.
I am so sorry to be negative, i really did not receive that message.
We need to develop a lot more elaborate protocols. Not sure if i can keep up, but i do wish the rest of humanity good luck. The fuck is happening that wreacks this king of destruction?
@admitsWrongIfProven
Yeah, that's one of the things I hate about Fedi — no guaranteed delivery. When you're already following each other, at least you can check the other instance for your reply, but when interacting with new people, it feels weird — no way to tell if you're being ignored or if your reply just didn't go through.
I'm kinda expecting this to happen when I'm using my own slo-o-ow instance, but this one usually works fine unless it starts rate-limiting.
@admitsWrongIfProven
I'm thinking of ditching Pleroma on my instance and trying snac2 instead — it looks very minimal, would probably work fine even on an anemic machine like mine. Maybe this will improve things 🤷
@m0xee Did i sound negative here? Please do tell me, i have no way to understand except it you tell me.
@admitsWrongIfProven
Nah, don't worry! You mentioning "fave and silence" immediately made me realise what's going on here — had you not mentioned it, I'd probably be worried.
@m0xee I wonder what great thing i discovered. Some day you might explain it to me?
@admitsWrongIfProven
No, I'm taking the opportunity to enjoy tech while I still can, when I find a job I would most certainly start hating computers (again!) to the point of audibly swearing at them 🤣
As for humans killing each other — certainly true. I think I learned dealing with anxiety better than a few years ago, but all this shit going on overcompensates for that in excess! I'm lucky that I don't have to deal with people other than friends and family in person much.
@m0xee I fervently wish to have the positive circumstances you have
@m0xee Maybe you care too much about technology because you are afraid of facing the reality of humans killing each other?
