  • As everyone else has said: kidney issue. If its an infection (you should definitely get this checked out), you’re going to need antibiotics. Drink a lot of water - like, a lot - and introduce cranberry juice to your drinking habits (won’t fix the infection but there’s some evidence its preventative).

    If its a stone then get ready for the worst pain in the world but also drink a lot of water to help break it up/aid its passage through.

    TL;DR - get a GP appointment and start drinking a fuck ton of water.

    Hard to see how them choosing to charge money to access their server will affect the future of the project, even them choosing to not run a free for anyone server any more wouldn’t necessarily affect the future of the project because the project is not to provide a free for all server but to develop software. Either way, them trying to find a way to keep the server operating certainly doesn’t mean ‘Matrix is cooked’.

    As far as Redis goes, as I understand it, they moved their software away from an open source license. There’s zero indication Matrix are going to do the same thing.

    This seems a bit of an odd take. Matrix.org making their server freemium is up to them - charging some users to use the service (not the software) is a way of keeping the lights on. Better that than ads or selling user data. Lots of privacy focused orgs do the same - Proton, Tuta, Mailbox, Mullvad, IVPN. If people also have an issue with Element - don’t use Element, use one of the other apps.

    If people are this upset, its not impossible (or even that hard) to migrate to a different server - or host your own.


  • The only rules that matter are the ones you and your date agree on and largely revolve around where it is you decide to meet. There’s nothing wrong with either of you having a drink if you’re somewhere that serves alcohol. There’s a lot wrong if either of you go on a bender. There’s also nothing wrong with drinking a soft drink too. Or doing an activity based date rather than a food/drink oriented one.

    Just communicate openly with each other before the date with an eye towards your dates feelings/perception of safety.

    Honestly, I am not trying to bait you or troll you or anything else when I say this but if you equate a simple request for context with toxicity you’re clearly not approaching this realistically or rationally.

    You might well be right and you’ve been treated very poorly but literally no one on this thread apart from you can ever know that and no one is just going to take someone’s word for it.











  • Imagine if instead of just reddit.com there was also reddit.org and reddit.co.uk and reddit.nl and reddit.social and (etc etc) all on a different server from each other and each with its own set of users and subreddits. But each user and each subreddit could be viewed and joined by any user from any server - that’s Lemmy.

    So you’re on the piefed.social server (but on the fediverse servers are called ‘instances’) and I’m on the lemmy.blahaj.zone instance but we can both see, subscribe to and post to a community (the Lemmy name for subreddits) on an instance neither of us are members of - the asklemmy community on the lemmy.world instance.

    Take a look at your screen (or app if you’re on mobile) and you’ll see ‘Local’, ‘Subscribed’ and ‘All’. If you select ‘Local’ you will see a list of posts from Communities that are on your home instance (which is piefed.social in your case). If you selected ‘Subscribed’ you’d see posts from all the Communities you chose to join/subscribe to across all instances. If you choose ‘All’ you’ll see posts from the entirety of Lemmy whether you subscribed to them or not. Whichever view you choose can be sorted by things like ‘new’, ‘active’, ‘hot’ etc.

    To find Communities you’re interested in joining, use the Search function, type in a keyword and select ‘Communities’.
