Love it. If you want to stay anonymous, might as well go the whole way. Granted TOR should not be used with a VPN.

Why couldn't it have been 9? Okay, I take that back. His grandma shouldn't be punished for him being a massive piece of shit.

Apparently, Trump is donating a bridge to all his ultra-platinum preferred choice diamond club voters. If I didn't dump all my money in Trump's amazing social media project (some say the best social media company ever), I'd be first up!

Lemmy users can believe in different things. We need differing opinions or it just stifles a website.

My oldest Reddit account is 15 years old. That site is a shell of what it used to be. It's lost almost everything that made it special in the first place. The community is also too large in my opinion. We went from well-thought-out posts, comments and questions to memes and one-liners. It's toxic, hive minded and full of bots.

I'm still running Sync for Reddit using a patch from Vanced. I don't know why I even bother. That site has gone so far downhill from 10-15 years ago. People used to get flamed for not reading an article or using improper grammar. Comments were, more often than note, well thought out and articulate. Now, the site is a cesspool or memes and idiocracy.

IRC is still a thing. It has a ton of activity in the pirate/warez scene.

I doubt that. 15 downvotes for saying they like WoW doesn't seem that out of line. People hate the crap out of that game and its users. Bots are a huge problem, but I doubt they are targeting OP.

You just can't hold down a job when you are homeless. I new a few who had tried, but something always gets in the way. That being said, a lot of missions/churches will let you use their address as a mailing address.

Find an abandoned building and make yourself at home. I preferred the park/sidewalk when I was homeless though.

Obviously it depends on the church and area, but I rarely experienced people trying to convert me when I was homeless. Most were trying to help the less fortunate and it ends at that. There was a church who would set up for lunch 3-4 days a week with no strings attached. A pastor came and delivered me MREs at like 2am in the morning one time after getting a call from one of his friends. He never once mentioned church. I'm thankful they were able to keep me alive in that dark time in my life.

I'm happy to see this announcement. However, just transitioning to a non-profit does not make an organization good. They can still be greedy and take advantage of their user base. That being said, it seems Proton's mission statement resonates with a non-profit type structure. When you are accountable to the shareholders, they become the priority.
