My wife and I bought her last car at CarMax and it was absolutely haggle and pressure free. We had spent hours prior at a Honda dealership and the pressure for so heavy, it had my wife in tears. We will always use either CarMax or private party in the future.
I block communities that routinely show up that I am not interested in seeing and use a monkey script to block instances of no value to me.
No, simply because I don’t “have to” have content. If Lemmy lacks interesting content, I go outside for a while.
Well, I use a fake name and an email used only for Duolingo, so… ok.
Perhaps you require more ragebait?
If so, you’re stupid, your thought is stupid and your choice in underwear is stupid.
What did Gizmodo think might happen instead? That everyone, including those that were never impacted by 3rd party app changes, would just abandon the site, leaving it without users? “Peak journalism”.
It really depends on where you live. For instance, in Western NC, I was completely left to my own devices on the trail systems. local IMBA group asked that I just keep track of my hours so they could add to the volunteer sheet that they turned into the forestry service. I was given the ok to take anything out I wanted; chainsaws, mowers, weedeaters, sickles, etc. In my new area, it’s more structured so I joined a FB group for the local club and asked them if I could do maintenance on the trail closest to me. They gave me the go-ahead so I go out to that trail when I want to do work.
I always try to find the most unused trail in the area to work on as I prefer the solitude when being out in the woods.
Trail maintenance. I spent over a decade doing work on neglected trails in western NC. Hours upon hours of hiking, weed eating, sawing, taking, etc. It was more exercise than biking the same trails.
I’m struggling with the loss of the mountain biking I’ve loved for a long time. I’m trying various changes out to keep some biking in my life. I’m biking more slowly and for diminished distances. Also my wife bought me an emtb that I’ve been trying out on the trails. Less fatigue means I’m .asking less mistakes while out.
I hope you find an outlet you enjoy. The loss is truly life altering.
but it definitely isn’t a way to consume content you actually want.
No, it’s not the way you want. Barring a single instance, it’s literally the way I want to consume the content.
People crossposting to the comical number of same-but-mines-different-communities can shit up a feed pretty quick. I’d suggest cutting down on a few of your tech groups and see how it works for you then.
What’s Twitter? Do you mean X?
As a former Redditor, I can only say that I’ve not yet begun looking at votes. Why do you determine the value of your post based on that? Make your post, read and respond to people who comment and have a great day.
Completely switched the day before 3d party access was monetized and crippled.
