Do people not use a VPN with Usenet at all? I have one for torrents to get my Linux ISOs but I just assumed I should also use one to get my news from Usenet.

I seem to remember years ago some people listing their pronouns by she/her/hers. I think she/her, she/they, he/him, etc. is just a shortening of listing all three while also being inclusive. As you mentioned some individuals are more fluid and may go by she and they but prefer she so it is listed as she/they.

Thanks for this! I finally decided to nuke my Reddit comments. I was mostly a lurker anyway, and I will probably still keep the account. Its too bad they have gone the way of Digg, I loved that site.

I'd get a house for me and my family. Make sure my parents have a house that meets their needs as well. I'd hire a personal trainer to get in shape and take a few months off work while I figure out what to do next.

The comments on that site are something else. I don't know what I expected, but it doesn't seem like many actually read the article

I lurk with an ad blocker. I do still have an account and am logged in so I can vote and save some posts.

I know a few people who have done this with Mastodon and it works quite well so far. Just like email, it doesn't really matter where it's hosted as long as it's being respectful and not sending out spam.

That being said, AFAIK you can't transfer a Lemmy account between instances yet, so if you ever change your mind and want to move to another instance, you may have to create a new account.
