Have you looked into other countries than just the US and China? Why did you choose China specifically over, let’s say, India or even Eastern Europe? I am curious to know the perspective

The new mobile interface is lit 🔥. Finally usable

protect national interests

Europe shall also protect their national interests and sanction India in this case, as India directly finances Russia which threaten’s European security

An actually solid mobile client

Well if Europe doesn’t do this, US or China will regardless and they won’t care about leaving junk in the space. So it’s a matter of who will profit off that. And also, the EU is doing a lot for the environment already. Maybe it’s time for other countries like India to stop throwing trash directly into rivers now? We live on the same planet. Even if EU achieves the zero-emission state, it only accounts for 5% of the population in the world, so it won’t change that much on a global scale if other countries continue refusing to cooperate

Oh yeah, my bad. It was .ml that’s blocked. Kinda ironic given that it’s one of he most pro-CCP instances out there

The big instances are blocked (like yours, i.e. lemmy.world) while the small ones that the CCP didn’t catch up with yet (like mine) are working fine. It’s a censorship went wrong moment

Actually porn is what makes many Chinese start using the VPNs too

For starters, the Great Chinese Firewall blocks access even to lemmy

Looking forward to seeing EU alternatives for Starlink

Invading a nuclear power doesn’t sound like a smart idea. They should’ve been prevented from acquiring nukes at the first place, just like other crazy countries, most notably Pakistan and India. Now it’s too late, I am afraid

What’s the issue with just using an adblocker? You cost them money to serve your queries but don’t make them any money provided you just browse and do not comment/post/vote

Absolutely. War is “a state of armed conflict between different countries or different groups within a country”. It’s an armed conflict between Israel and Palestine indeed. You can give it other bigger names too but it certainly fulfills the definition of a war as well

Came here after my niche small Reddit client got officially shut down. When the API changes were announced, I knew that I’d rather switch than use their official Reddit client. I didn’t like that they charge AI companies for accessing my data and I don’t get any share of their profit neither. Here on Lemmy everyone can train their AI models on our data but at least there’s no random dude (spez) who profits off that.

The decentralization meaning that I can choose some random small instance and not be bound to the admins of any big one was another big point for Lemmy

Sometimes he’s mentioned in the daily conversations once he says something controversial or big. But the real base of supporters is in the churches; they do repeat what he said once a month or so and pray together for it to turn into reality

Don’t worry, now teens have TikTok which they can source their information from, so we should be safe

There are different levels of poverty. Poverty in Somalia and poverty in Scandinavia or Western Europe are two different levels of poverty that do not compare

I confirm that. Source: trust me bro

And this is how tariffs should work - not targeting the whole countries randomly but protecting the local industries and jobs instead against unfair competition. Good job Canada!

That sounds too good to be true, were they really not taking any cuts from the payments too? If so, can you share the name of the product?
