Not OP but here you go. I work with young people and have had suicide prevention training multiple times, this is a recurring mantra that not asking about it is much worse than asking.

I can heaaaaar her saying this!

Giving you an upvote for FFVII, that was the game that got me into gaming. Still have the best memories of that one

The current status is that he’s really active on lemmy still and will sometimes pop in on these type of posts and answer your questions.

He did do a follow up about how to take a poop when you haven’t for three days lol. So he clearly had trouble getting started again but I think he’s well now.

Did the cat have to sign with their paw? Please say yes even if it isn’t true

Is this real? It’s too cute to be real isn’t it?

I’m very pleased to hear that! I’ll stop complaining and adding to the negativity 😌

Thank you as always, I really appreciate the breakdowns and transparency. Also thank you for reminding users that you’re all volunteers and actual people running this, I’ve seen a lot of awful entitlement recently and some really unpleasant posts

Hey there! If you read the sidebar for lemmy.world the links to donate are all there 😊

Hi! I’m in the UK and use catbox for all my images here on lemmy. I read that I’m not supposed to be able to access it but I’ve not had any issues

Awesome!

Yeah I had the same thing with liftoff this morning. Clearing my cache and data then signing back in fixed it for me

As a millennial this made me laugh far to much.

I knew it would be this video! Thanks for giving me another watch

Yes! Upvoted because I just didn’t expect it

Well said!

Ha ha! Thank you very much for noticing!

I think lemmy is too small at the moment to downvote in the same way people did on reddit. It’s still growing and we need people to post content to build the site and everyone’s engagement, downvotes for just disagreeing are going to discourage a whole new group of people who didn’t post on reddit because of getting drowned out in the noise. Look in all the question posts about how people are enjoying lemmy and you’ll see a bunch of them.

I’ve just been moving on and ignoring things I disagree with, no upvote is enough punishment in my eyes. Saying that I’ve been giving out upvotes to most things to encourage people to post and comment more. If something is clearly gross and offensive it’ll get a downvote and possibly a report, but that’s so rare in the communities I’m going to. If it’s a really off topic comment or whatever then yes it’s downvoted because it doesn’t belong.

If there’s something I really, really disagree with but don’t want to get into a conversation about it I’ll just block the user. That way I don’t have to see or deal with their opinions I disagree with anymore and can just move on with my life.

I guess that’s a really, really long winded way of agreeing with you lol. I’ve been a lot more liberal with the upvotes and have really changed my downvote behaviour too.

Tell me more about your veiny melons.

Woo! Thanks for keeping this going in your spare time, hope you’re getting time for cappuccinos! Congrats on the credits to you and all the team 👍
