Renting assuming it was exclusive and they weren’t allowed in the whole house is fine imo. It’s when the adults shared the same common areas.

Not the same thing if they object to a stranger living in their home, and you let them in anyway, they feel less safe and now if they come to you because that person does something bad you’re more likely to question whether they’re being truthful or not. It’s literally the case for so many parents who think their kids are just trying to lie to get then out the house.

It’s not that hard to wait to move them in. Let them come over for dinner or game night and let kids get comfortable and like them first.

That’s a good point, I guess I’d add that it’s fine to keep seeing them or even to allow them over for dinner or to game night, but giving children time to get to know them and like them before officially moving in.

Don’t be surprised when they don’t talk to you when grown up or ask to live with the other parent because you are prioritizing your new partner over your literal children. Also violating their consent.

Soap and deodorant is all that you need to not smell, soap when showering and a daily use of anti perspirant deodorant then literally you won’t smell.

It won’t get bad there it’s the richest country and has direct democracy, CHF 5,430 post tax median salary. There’s nothing for an authoritarian party to say to convince voters who are the wealthier people (actual citizens) of Switzerland

Also the average assets for adults is over $700K they’re too rich to fall to power hungry parties

Switzerland is probably the country most likely to leave everyone alone lol. Because they’re a direct democracy and extremely decentralized. Plus internationally neutral.

We need to eliminate primaries and only allow card carrying members to vote for nominees like every other democracy it prevents cults like MAGA

You are paying for the physical infrastructure. Your ISP connects the physical cables to your house/apartment that allow you to access the Internet. Google Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari… Are the digital portals to the web and search engines let you “serf” the web. We only pay for 1 service the physical. If we banned data we’d pay for at least 2 if not all 3 plus individual sites

What web browser are you using to get to this site? Unless you’re on dialup you’re accessing the Internet through a web browser that uses data to pay for the upkeep of the servers

It’s not a false dichotomy, the companies that give us access to the Internet like Google need to make money in one way or another, they sell our user data to other companies which then give targeted ads to us. If we banned the use of user data it would require a monthly subscription

We pay an ISP because they have to maintenance on a massive physical structure to keep running properly. We do not pay for the Internet, some websites charge money but Google and the general web is free to use.

People are ready for alternatives to Reddit, Twitter, Facebook… Can a community on reddit shutdown, and seamlessly transfer to lemmy within a few days while archiving the subreddits history? Will the new Lemmy be hands off moderation at the site level so that conversation can be had? If you can give people a yes to both people will join.

The fediverse is too complicated which I said in detail on my post on c/fediverse currently its a mess each domain has hundreds of different sites that aren’t interconnected and where you need to create a new account on each. If Lemmy had a front page like reddit and allowed for all its smaller communities to be coded and personalized to be completely different while allowing the top 25 posts every 24 hours to pop up and allowing a place to search for a specific community. We could still allow an approval process for specific communities but reddit would fall in months with how mods at reddit currently behave

If the fediverse has any chance at properly succeeding it must create a “front page” for each alternative. Lemmy for reddit for example. There is no reason why all of lemmy can’t have a front page like old.lemmy.world with each community/platform on lemmy being connected and allowing for ease of access unlike what it is currently where you need a different account for every single Lemmy site

any country in the EU

What’s the Facebook alternative? Also blue sky is by far the closest to replacing Twitter with millions of users

Ideally it would be hosted in the EU and thus only things illegal there would be enforced.

Unless peertube has a way to properly monetize and at a much higher rate it’s not beating YouTube which in conjunction will sponsors and patreon is doing great for creators. pixelfed has potential
