Yes, that’s it! Looks like the two existing instances are both in Mandarin only, and federation hasn’t been fully implemented yet.

I believe NeoDB is the only one in the works currently. But unfortunately I’m unable to find much about it in English, as it’s being developed in Mandarin first.

Even worse, 65.3 percent of Americans live within this zone.

It sounds like they’re going to be allowing anti-LGBT hate speech, which was formerly a ban-worthy offense on their platform. Reddit and most Lemmy instances have rules against this, so I imagine Squabblr is going to attract the same sort of people that like using Truth Social.

I believe it’s an all-electric quadricycle, not a typical car. This is meant for people that live in urban environments with short daily commutes. I could see something like this being great for people who may not be physically able to ride a bicycle or navigate some less-accessible metro networks. It’s also significantly cheaper than most electric vehicles.

John Jonik, the maker of this comic, maintains a website with high-quality images of many of his comics.

I personally like LibreWolf , a privacy-focused version of Firefox that has Ublock Origin installed by default and has unnecessary things like Mozilla Pocket removed.

Another option is Ungoogled Chromium, which is just Google Chromium with Google web services removed.

When their expensive luxuries are actively harming the planet, I think their indulgences offer us plenty of justification to hate. Private jets emit the same amount of CO2 in two hours that an average car does in a year. This frivolous waste poisons our air and warms our fragile seas. I’m not envious of private jets or yachts; it would be unethical for me to use them no matter how much wealth I had.

She’s apparently a MAGA supporter, so I have no sympathy.

Doesn’t Peertube already do this?

The great thing about Lemmy though is that a community you interact with or even moderate doesn't need to be on your instance. If you're a member of Beehaw, which doesn't allow community creation, you could start your Dune community on Lemmy.ml or another instance and moderate it with your Beehaw account.

/r/Fuckcars is one of my favorite subreddits. Do you know of any similar urbanist groups on Lemmy?
