  • The full list really isn’t as bad as I expected.

    BBC is up there, apnews, the guardian.

    As another comment has said, NPR is audio content, and nearly all of their podcasts are available through podcast apps directly. And PBS isn’t a news site, so of course it doesn’t show up.

    Also worth remembering that CNN was pretty widely considered to be balanced until around a decade ago. I’m sure there’s a bunch of older people still operating from that.

    Good. You can spend Thanksgiving “fighting the good fight” while the rest of us try to survive and have a day not filled with doom and gloom.

    Put yourself on a news diet, take all this energy and put it into doing good locally when and where you can, and leave it away from conversations with the family during Thanksgiving.

    Or you can fucking host and set whatever rules you want.













  • The fuck are you talking about? I’m not the thorn guy, and I do find their “quirk” annoying.

    A callout post about another user, like this one, is explicitly against the sidebar rules, and it’s a massive dick move to not just block the guy and instead make a callout post for something so small. I don’t want to see lemmy turn into the brigading fest that reddit could be at times, so I’m going to call this shit out.

    I’ve already reported it, which is the reasonable response. This callout post is because it marks a distinct pattern of completely absent moderation here, backed up by the fact that only one of the three mods has any activity in the last fucking year.

    My feelings aren’t hurt, I’m frustrated at the shit state of this sub, and I’m going to at least try to do what little I can before I do the responsible thing of just blocking and peacing out.
