Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•"If you tell a lie big enough and tell it frequently enough, people will eventually come to believe it". What is an example of this happening today?

In msn messenger emoticons were what emojis are today. So to me emoticons and emojis are the same… i dont what to call the things op refers to… maybe ASCII emoticons?
Edit: turns out im wrong https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emoticon
Edit: sort of wrong… emojis are also officially called emoticons

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Viewing lemmy posts by all tends to be dominated by a few communities
1·2 years agoI fully agree. On reddit i would use the all frontpage to find new communities. Here it doesnt work.
So assuming you disable all the optional telemetry in the settings, you should be good right?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why haven't multi-communities been added to Lemmy?
7·2 years agoAnother feature I’d like to see is instance admins proposing multi-communities, as in: multi-communities which pop up in the search results and allow you to subscribe to all the the communities grouped together with one click/touch. This way the problem of community fragmentation across multiple instances (e.g. multiple instances having a a “memes” community) would be solved (or mitigated at least).
As paradoxical as it is, I think that these open source non-profit projects are a lot more efficient than profit-driven, debt-fueled corporations.
First of all, the main contributors to a FOSS project do it for passion and do not take a salary.
Secondly, they don’t have the infinite growth mindset that pushes enterpreneurs to to spend as much as possible for maximum growth, all financed by a growing amount of investors (and debt, which costs interest fees).
If a FOSS project reaches maximum capacity, they will close subscriptions, they will throttle traffic, i.e. they will slow down growth, but they will not go into debt. Slowing down growth is something that a for-profit company would never do (at least until the interest rates were low and the investors were plenty, today idk). Eventually someone else in the community will decide to do a generous donation or open their own instance.
that’s very little politics, they’re banning one single political ideology. And fascism is an ideology that’s fundamentally incompatible with the concept of human rights, whose need of respect in the 21st century should be taken for granted and shouldn’t be a political question, i.e. a question which is answered in the political discourse, at all. So yeah, little politics. Fascism = bad, should be universally recognized as true. Nationalism per se not necessarily bad, but palingenetic ultranationalism, which is definition of fascism I’m using, definitely.
edit: hi lemmy, first post here
