Thoughts on pinboard's viability? (sh.itjust.works)

Been using Marcin's beautifully created bookmark manager since yahoo killed delicious. It was yahoo that bought it right? I digress. Anyway, I've been paying for his service since he mentioned it would be helpful if the old users also contributed BUT the site's downtime has been rough and unpredictable lately. It's just worrying mostly because Marcin doesn't seem to be minding the incoming questions. Emails go ignored. He doesn't seem to upkeep his pinboard focused google group either. He is active on twitter but one needs a twitter account to see twitter anymore so that's not helpful for non twitter account holders. I'm just generally concerned. Any pinboard users here? It's probably time to start running my own bookmark system isn't it? Your thoughts on the stability of pinboard?

UNRWA reaches 'breaking point' as US intel says 'low confidence' about Israeli claims in c/worldnews@lemmy.ml

[-] TacoButtPlug@sh.itjust.works 58 points 3 months ago

If they find Israel was lying... (😱)... then the US should give whatever it was financially going to give Israel, to the UNRWA. That, or Israel needs to actually and directly pay for its bullshit for once.

Nothing shows how bought out the Republicans are to Russia more than the statement on how they didn't want to send weapons to perpetuate war. That's all these assholes want to ever do. The one time they don't and it's for daddy Putin. Half the issues with populism in the US seem to stem from the level of destructive populism Russia enjoys.

What quotes from children's media went hard as hell for no reason? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

"I like you as you are Exactly and precisely I think you turned out nicely And I like you as you are

I like you as you are Without a doubt or question Or even a suggestion Cause I like you as you are

I like your disposition Your facial composition And with your kind permission I’ll shout it to a star

I like you as you are I wouldn’t want to change you Or even rearrange you Not by far

I like you I-L-I-K-E-Y-O-U I like you, yes I do I like you, Y-O-U I like you, like you as you are"

It's crazy how many people just on this meme think antifa is an actual organization. 🤦

May be a dumb question but are there any one in the same fediverse and rss readers in one for android?

Substack says it will not remove or demonetize Nazi content in c/technology@lemmy.world

Yea... Meta took the same "free peaches" approach and the entire fucking globe is now dealing with various versions of white nationalism. So like, can we actually give censorship of hate a fucking try for once? I'm willing to go down that road.

Additional data backups along with a cloud account? (sh.itjust.works)

Hey - what else do you all do to back your data up outside of just depending on icloud or dropbox? I'm just curious how everyone handles additional backups.

How is it police unions seemingly have more power than any other union? The writers are striking and that's barely doing anything for them but the pigs? They just have to bat an eyelash and get what they want...

TMobile is censoring lemmy.world posts (and maybe others) (sh.itjust.works)

Just tried to send a friend a story about Parkinson's from lemmy.world and every single time TMobile strips the link from my SMS. They let tumblr.com though.

I just looked up if they're actively censoring other sites and, yes. They are. They claim they're only doing this to obscure domains (.xyz and so on) but I just watched a YouTuber demonstrate .com censorship too. So it seems it's less arbitrary than they claim.

The conservatives are crying about it like it's just them getting censored but it seems it's beyond party lines if I can't share an article about Parkinson's research.
