Using recycled parts is the best advice. As you said, it’s almost certainly overkill and the price can’t be beat.

Unless you’re part of a marginalized group I suppose.
This is a pretty dismissive take. “Sure, things have improved for the blacks and queers, but what about us… uh, regular folk?”
Sure, but not by definition. Posting slop and spam is different than shitposting. This post is just slop.
“Shitposting” describes the act, not the content. Posting content “that took little to no effort” to produce is just spam. It doesn’t matter if a human made it or not.
The top finger kinda gives it away imo
I am a happy /c/fuckai subscriber and I am still comfortable admitting that image generators can be great for memes and quick jokes.

Jellyfin is great, but in defense of Plex, they announced that remote streaming would require one of the two parties to have a Plex pass was coming back in March so I don’t know if it’s fair to say they are holding anything hostage.
I think it’s silly to get caught up in definitions too. Cory Doctorow calls the bottom panel “techno feudalism” and I think that’s pretty good.
I said this elsewhere too, but the bottom panel depicts something other than capitalism, since capitalism definitionally requires a competitive market.
Companies that are ostensibly in competition but not fighting each other too hard, is just another way of saying they are not in competition. It’s not capitalism.
We DO have very explicit laws against it, they have just sat unenforced since the 80’s (except for a few brief years in the 2020s).
I don’t want to defend capitalism, but the bottom panel depicts activity that is technically very illegal in the US (but antritrust laws have not been enforced by the FTC since the 1980s, barring a few short years in 2020s under Lina Khan).
Capitalism definitionally requires competition, without it you have… something even worse.

Trump’s presidential memoranda argued that the National Guard deployment was necessary and defendable as these […] demonstrations “constitute a form of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States.”
First of all, you are on feddit.nl and cannot speak for"Lemmy". That said- if anything, “Lemmy” users should be supporting independent journalism like 404 Media.

They do not ask for a phone number.
The growth of the network*
There are many platforms in the Fediverse. The fact that the network can survive the collapse of one platform is a strength of decentralization. The Lemmy/mbin/piefed universe can only ever be exactly as big as we, the users, want it to be.
A Fedi instance requires a time commitment, there are some good suggestions in here but I recommend some alternative frontends.
Turns out good web design skills does not always translate into other skills.
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.
