@WestBromwich@feddit.uk did you even know you'd been banned due to this comment?

Same, it was pretty much an instant change too. Which sucked as Facebook chat was very unreliable at the time and obviously not very feature rich.

I suspect most BMW owners won't care too much. Like they'll find it annoying but still buy/lease the car anyway.

This must have flown right by me, but what was Reddit's attitude?

You guys put people on the moon in the 60s. You sure as hell can sort this out with enough will power and time. But instead all you offer are excuses.

Don't forget being accused of being a fascist because your favourite game is rollercoaster Tycoon.

Is there any footage of him talking on camera about it? The video that Russia released of him on a conference call is a bit sketchy due to how short it is and the guy literally doesn't move, not even blink. Could have just been a screenshot.

What a monumental cunt.

I don't know anything about planning / building, but does the planning office not inspect sites periodically to make sure the plans are being followed?

Not really sure what is confusing about what I said. Russia's plan was to take Ukraine in 3 days. It's now on, what - day 566? There's no way they planned on it taking this long.

I’ve mostly seen anti war takes from them

They're highly critical of Ukraine and keep blaming them for the bloodshed. They'll say Ukraine needs to surrender to stop needless deaths, but either they're completely naïve and think Russia would instantly stop fighting forever, or they're quite happy for Ukraine and it's culture to cease to exist. They'll never directly come out and say they support Russia, but their criticisms against either countries are one sided against Ukraine, and it's extremely rare they'll say anything about Russia.

IMO is much better than all the pro war news and views in the lib instances

I've not seen any "pro war news". I see news on the war, but I doubt there's many people who want the war. People just want Russia to leave Ukraine more than anything.

Most leftists are anti Russia since its a capitilaist, imerialist, oligarchal shit hole, but they also are anti US and NATO for similar reasons.

As I mentioned above, it's not balanced at all. You don't see the same (if any at all) anger towards Russia as you do the US, Ukraine etc.

50% of their mod team is trans and they are one of the few instances with pronouns built in to it. They have a good argument that of the biggest instances they are the most trans friendly. Can’t speak for smaller instances or individual communities though.

It's great that trans users have a space they feel at home and safe with. But it's sad that they have to do that in the first place. Ideally they should be welcome on any instance and treated fairly just as anyone else but sadly that's not reality. As much as Hexbear is brought up about defederating, toxic anti-trans, or any toxic discriminatory users should be put on a public ban list so people can choose to ban them.

I'm not really for them to be defederated though, but I think it's important to at least discuss it like OP has here, as it brings up behaviours that get brought to attention to their mods and highlights that many people feel that their behaviour can be seen as damaging to the wider Lemmy community.

It's showing £18.99 for me, which is a lot. I thought it was going to be like £2.99!
