This fairy tale world where this dude thinks he can get “Russia to exit its military alliance with China”, this seems temping. But if this chucklefuck thinks that’s going to happen, then I’ve got 5 bridges to sell him.

Privilege breeds idiocy

It’s going to take these old assholes dropping dead in the Capitol before we start doing anything but bitching about the ages of our congresspeople. And yes, anyone selfish enough run for re-election when they’re over the age of 70 is an asshole in my book

What’s the general temperature on this acquisition?

ABK has been a dumpster fire for a decade, but it seems like a worryingly large move for the gaming scene in general.

Okay I learned a few things, though they may be specific to Memmy.

1. The /c/community@instance works, and opens the links in the app, rather than browser
2. If you have text in front of your link, it doesn’t work. Might be a Memmy issue.
3. I need to test, but I think #2 is responsible for the Null errors I’ve been getting when text is hyperlinked.

Text testing #3 - confirmed, this returns the Null error.

Now without prior text

test - this also didn’t work

test! - using a link beginning with ! Also didn’t work. Hmm.

Edit from browser: Hyperlinked text isn’t working properly in Memmy

Those opened in the in app browser on Memmy. Testing here

/c/amateur_radio@lemmy.radio

Thanks for the explainer! Doing some testing cause your example didn’t hyperlink on Memmy

c/tech@pawb.social /c/tech@pawb.social !c/tech@pawb.social !tech@pawb.social test text /c/tech@pawb.social /c/Lemmy@lemmy.ml

Weird. Not sure when your example didn’t link, because it did in my comment ¯\(ツ)/¯

Edit: I’m back on browser. Everything that hyperlinked works properly. It’s a Memmy issue

Do you mind giving a short explainer of proper link formatting? I was struggling with this just a little bit ago

Yeah what does a Saudi prince want to do with a social platform run by a ‘free speech absolutist’? Especially to the tune of $2 billion dollars?

I’m sure is just a big coincidence that the site is turning into a fascist-sympathizing shithole

I’m not having kids because billionaires have bribed, lobbied, and misinformed this country, and by extension the world, to the brink of ruin

I’m not saying he’s tanking Twatter on purpose… but what would he do differently if he was?

Thanks for the post. I’ve bought some coffees for the Lemmy.world admin and Memmy dev, but didn’t think to track down the Lemmy dev. Signed up for the Patreon!

Australians posting on Lemmy, huzzah!
