So does that mean it gets one more season before Netflix cancels it?

That is awesome. My only issue is that I'm 100% sure that I'd forget about it and end up lying down with it still on my head and breaking it. Seems like it's mostly good for the club but I don't see why you couldn't occasionally wear it for the day with certain outfits.

This doctor outrage was easily one of the top dumbest fucking things to ever come out of the USA. And of course it was all the right wing conservative people lmao. It's just one thing after the other with these people. If they're not angry that kids are learning Arabic numerals in school, they're busy choosing 1/4 pounder burgers over 1/3 pounder burgers. But the doctor thing is definitely one for the hall of fame.

Ugh. It was a really fun idea returning to this story like 30 years later with a new generation but do they really need to turn it into a franchise now? Fkn come on Hollywood.

Just took a look and it definitely seems like the kind of instance that I'm looking for. The only thing is, I've just recently come from another instance with downvotes disabled (Blahaj) and was wanting to get a look at Lemmy with all votes enabled. Honestly I wish that individual communities or instances could choose to have downvotes disabled without it effecting every other instance too. Sucks that it's an all or nothing kind of deal.

By the way, just realised that I'm an absolute idiot that was looking at the wrong list and that lemmy.zip is in fact federated with hilariouschaos. I'm honestly getting tired of being blind or doing dumb things, I promise I'm not normally a stupid person but it's like my brain isn't working properly these days.

look like a girl, act like a lady, think like a man, work like a boss

Lmao holy shit. And it would be the South African side that does this 🤦‍♂️ I hate it here lol. The scary part is that this slogan had to have been seen by multiple people before it got posted on social media. And not one saw the problem.

I honestly don't think Arch is that bad or complicated. It's just that you have to go into it knowing that you're in for some reading, tinkering and following step by step instructions along the way. I'd start with something like Mint or Ubuntu for a first look for sure. But once you're ready to learn a bit more about how the Linux system works and is put together, Arch would straight up be my first recommendation. Even if it's something you play with on the side in a virtual machine, for me at least, starting on Arch was when my Linux experience went from clicking at things and copy pasting commands into the terminal to still copying and pasting commands lol, but actually learning why and how and what too.

Blaze rocks lol. Definitely one of the friendliest and most helpful people around here. Especially when you're still a noob.

Thanks! It definitely does help. I'm looking for the fabled perfect (for me) instance lol. Somewhere that's going to at least keep users protected from CSAM or other horrid things but that isn't going to also be deciding for their users when it comes to non illegal content.

Sounds like either world or ee are the answer. So I'll do a little more homework but probably end up signing up with world again.

Hey @LadyButterfly@lazysoci.al, I hope you don't mind me summoning you here. You're the one that inspired me to start looking around for a different instance so I want to ask, what's the deal with lazysoci.al? Was it missing something for you that you get out of lemmy.world? And does lemmy.world federate with hilariouschaos?

I have always got good vibes from zip users and communities in the past. I see that one instance they de-federate from unfortunately is that hilariouschaos instance. One of the reasons I signed up here was to see the alt community there. That instance definitely gives me certain vibes though and it's a pity that there's a few communities on there of interest to me. But yeah, I'd like to find an instance that gets rid of illegal content and doesn't allow straight bigotry under the guise of 'free speech' but I'd also like to be able to decide for myself sometimes. And block users or communities myself if they disagree with my politics or lifestyle.

Thanks very much for the help here. The links you shared are definitely going to be useful in helping me find what I'm looking for. This instance that I'm on right now is almost perfect for me so far, apart from the image hosting limitations.
