  • I think perhaps it would be nice with custom tags.

    I would like to block all content of sexual nature (sexual nudity, lewd anime, the like)

    it is very subjective what is nsfw and what is not. For some people, making porn is their work, so obviously porn is not nsfw for them.

    If we had custom tags, we would have the hassle of having the same thing in a lot of different categories, but I would much prefer that to having only the nsfw option which is just not enough to capture the diversity of content (and badly named).

    then I could block all the porn tags (or perhaps block a user driven list of porn tags) and avoid a lot more “porn” than I do now 😅










  • I like to collect mugs - nothing better than drinking your morning coffee from a crazy mug :))

    I collect mugs with my boyfriend (and the rest of my collective) and it is such a nice hobby. I can almost always guess who brought the mug into the house, based on people’s interest.

    Yesterday I drank coffe from a Friday the 13th Mug and I know one of my collectivists loves that series :))

    the only issue, as with all collections, it takes up so much room in the kitchen 🥲

    I’ve worked in shipping for a couple months and I can only say this: People should order way less stuff online or make sure they are using an ethical shipping company (if they even exist).

    the industry prays on young people (often minorities) who have trouble getting other jobs. they almost exclusively hire people with short term contracts (because your body can’t take the work for more than a few months). I’ve been part of a union for a long time and I know a lot about work safety. These companies teach people nothing and they can only meet their deadlines if people actively break their backs twisting around, doing unsafe lifts and generally working to fast.

    I get that shipping is sometimes necessary, but it can only be as fast and cheap as it is, because poor people pay with their bodies.

    as mentioned by (an) other comment(s), you should add Kakoune under text editors, perhaps with the text:

    Kakoune

    A modal terminal text editor based on Vi. Kakoune is based on selection before action and is committed to the unix Philosophy.

    and when talking about descriptions, I don’t have a problem with the descriptions being subjective in tone, but could you remove the word “master race” from the Vim description ?

    while I understand the history of using “master race” in tech related discussions, I think the nazi history overrules that by a long shot. Even if it didn’t have the history it did, the word emanates eugenics.

    otherwise, I think it is a nice list and a good initiative :))

    I really like community made resources :))



  • calling Islam a 7th century death cult is very racist.

    Far from all Muslim people advocate for controlling women like that. Make your point about sexism, but please do it without the racism.

    //EDIT: I knew people would get angry about my use of the word ‘racist’, when I made the post, but I hoped people wouldn’t be so nitpicky. Of course I know people of any race can be Muslim, but the idea of race is much more than just the colour of a person’s skin. Race is tied to culture is tied to religion. I could have used any word instead of racist, like ‘anti-muslim’, ‘xenophobic’ or just plain ‘hateful’. I used racist, because I believe all these things are connected, and by calling it racist I hope people can see that.

    Also, I’m an atheist myself, but Atheists really need to stop our war on religion. I hate organized religion and I will fight discrimination when I see it. But let people be.
