Our PIGS brothers ❤️❤️❤️

At least they are legally employing people, in other countries in Southern Europe people work an illegal amount of time but as long as the official contract declares a lower amount of hours it’s fine (neither retirements funds nor taxes nor insurance are paid for the extra time, obviously).

This is Italy: racial discrimination, labor exploitation, inexistent law enforcement.

If you prefer an open source app, native, complete, with a decent UI and an active developer community, the official one is definitely the best. And I mean Jerboa, because it is the official client made by the very same people that are making Lemmy (so always compatible and up-to-date with the server development).

Otherwise, if you don’t mind using a closed source app, Summit is the most feature rich one and it is maintained by a professional industry-level native Android developer who really knows what he’s doing.

Finally, if you want to experiment with a cross platform app, open source and well maintained, with a really nice user interface, have a try with Thunder.

The far right has been ruling my country for 2 years now. Their campaigns have been specifically targeting Muslim migrants (even foreign workers, because they can marry locals, become citizens and generate offspring and other bullsh1t)… but looking at the facts and not the propaganda, this government has quietly more than doubled the number or yearly visas released for work reasons, just to say “look we cut irregular migration to a minimum”.

Maybe try to seduce policemen being better at sexting?

Me not having any chat because I don’t have any friend

I agree in that Summit is the most feature complete and polished Lemmy client for Android.

As a European I can reassure you: younger generations aren’t considered by politics (and in turn young people don’t consider politics at all and don’t even go to vote, abstentionsism is skyrocketing). The headline is a little exaggerated.

All Android developers rn:

Yes I agree with you, of course, in theory it should work like this. But all around me I see things going so terribly wrong, so I assume practice must be somewhat different from the theory.

E.g. in my country far-right politicians have been democratically elected and they are dismantling the nation and changing the constitution, all legally.

Edit: Nobody is giving a f-ck neither internally nor externally (e.g. OTAN or EU) so I assume they are fine with it too.

far-right, far-left and populist movements

Isn’t this how it is supposed to work? Why should anyone’s voice be silenced if all opinions are worth the same?

The EU elections will play a decisive role in shaping this trend, those politicians who have exposed ideas about it, creating e.g. a common defense system, seem to have completely lost any contact with the reality of what citizens need and wish for their future.

I don’t know why, but if I figure in my head him telling that word with his voice and his Argentinian accent it sounds almost funny.

Since he is a foreigner, I assume he does not fully understand how vulgar and derogatory that term is in Italian. The result is “hilarious”, because as a native you realize he didn’t mean to use that word, like e.g. when a child uses a swear word thinking it is in the right context while it’s not.

Also Kotlin devs!

Yes, true!

The customers of those two banks should express their gratitude to their governments!

There are also analogies with maintaining legacy code bases as software developers:

It’s still too early to tell anything, hope they come back too!

The Lemmy ecosystem is weird because there are so many Lemmy tools maintained by a single person yet at the same time the majority of Lemmy’s user base is tech-savy (we’re mostly nerds working in the IT field) and we should be inclined to collaboration rather than competition, considering the amount of criticism about western capitalism here.

The reason may be that many projects started out as experiments/for fun, or that we are unwelcoming to new contributors, who knows…

Same, its existence gives me a little of hope even in the toughest moments. I don’t care if people aren’t always nice/polite, you have to deal with it IRL or on any online platform.

Lemmy has always been a sort of “cure” for me, listening to different people’s opinions and learning something new or a new perspective on things every day.
