15 yr account here. They want us gone? Fine with me.

They did it to r/de, no reason to believe they have stopped. https://www.reddit.com/r/SubredditDrama/comments/13p889x/reddit_admins_were_just_caught_using_bots_or_fake/

It checked a lot of boxes for corporation use. SELinux isn’t/wasn’t on debian either. But it’s not any ‘better’. Debian has been rock solid for me. ZFS is the only thing I’d like to see in Debian feature-wise.

It’s far better than reddit is but real discussions still aren’t allowed to happen. Before 2016 or so I was still subscribed to /politics because while we didn’t always agree, we could at least discuss. Then in 2016 everyone got TDS and became a fragile child, unable to handle adult topics without banning or reporting. Wrongthink became a reality. And it’s very much a reality here at lemmy.world and other large fediverse instances.

Cities that don’t focus as much on car centric infrastructure are more pleasant to drive through.

You know what makes a pleasant drive? Getting where you want to go quickly, and without stops. And we accomplish that by accepting that cars are always going to exist. We must throw out the ridiculous notion that bikes aren’t pedestrians. They are not worth building out completely separate infrastructure which is the only way they are happy. They refuse to cooperate and share pedestrian infrastructure which is the obvious solution. They are selfish and pretend they are saving the world by making cars drive slower and stop more. One biker can cause more incidental pollution than if they just drove there instead and didn’t slow everyone down.

Car centric infrastructure benefits those with…cars. And as cars are the primary method of transportation, it make perfect sense to design our cities around this idea.

Transportation is the lifeblood of communities. Without roads and cars they literally cannot exist. If you remove roads you kill the community.

Unless you have a new method of transportation that is better than cars, keep your fantasies in your head. You want to walk go right ahead.

I’ve used their map layers for a public data website. Worked great.
