How do we know that instance will stay afloat though? I see search engines indexing Lemmy already, but they're all scattered with whatever instance they happened to get in touch with.

Damn, I can't believe how toxic some people can be. I hope you find a safe spot asap, OP.

A lot can be inferred. OP probably has talked about his political beliefs before with their family present (or eavesdropped). Either that, or OP had some arguments with his dad and his brother and they're now taking leaps of faith thinking he must be a democrat.

Javascript is overrated and more websites should be static with minimal interactive bs. But that's just me, a cynical user tired of intrusive pop-ups and predatory advertising scripts.

Even if you got them using PGP somehow, there's always a risk. Apps designed to upload screenshots, share contacts or simple human errors like "hey did you hear X saying Y", etc.

You mean you don't want to waste a thousand dollars and more in pointless upgrades and accessories every year? Impossible!

It's like having a discord 'server'. Nothing gets actually talked about, noteworthy stuffs are hidden beyond layers of clunky mobile UI and everyone's phone numbers are leaked in the process.

It's still important for video game preservation, no matter how crappy the games themselves might be.

Piggybacking on this, I tried Fitgirl repack releases and some of them hang up during install when executed through wine or proton. I resorted to installing them from a windows boot and then execute them from linux, but does anyone have a better solution?

They went balls deep with the devil's spawn called nprotect.

Complete the obligatory "is this a staircase or street crossing" round only to be roundhouse kicked back to the beginning.
