  • You're on light mode I guess? Otherwise looks the same. The ads are some google ads plugin so I guess it's picked up me searching about it on google by accident at some point (I usually use duckduckgo)

  • Sync was actually a closed source client for Reddit that pivoted to Lemmy after the API changes. Still saves images to a folder called reddit_sync, even.

    Where did you hear it's a jerboa clone?

  • Absolutely. Im so numb to the violence but it still overwhelms me. It's good that you still feel that emotion for others, we must always remember that a revolutionary is guided by great feelings of love ❤️

  • "look, iran has hot girls too. maybe they aren't so bad after all"

    Jump

  • On a side note, is there much info on the dress code in Iran? From what I can see, it's mainly about covering your legs from the ankles up, covering arms from the elbows up, and covering the top of your head if you're a woman. And even then I imagine foreigners get less hassle.

    Like, all of the pictures of Iranian women in Chabod (the typically-black head-to-toe covering) is purely exploiting for propaganda purposes the women who congregate in their choice of clothing.

    Those women have more autonomy over their appearance and modesty than a lot of women do in the west. We may not have formal religious or moral police, but instead we have at least a third of society who harass, assault, and ---- women deemed "not modest enough". We have recreated modesty police culturally yet talk of liberating women into our own fucked up systems of misogyny.

  • Agreed. I don't think its about necessarily ignoring or permanently unplugging, but for example using RSS feeds to get news in a more structured manner, or temporarily uninstalling apps and reinstalling later to catch up on things.

    Like, I'm super interested in this stuff too, but also I don't need to know the up to the minute headlines on what is happening on the front lines of Ukraine, or the minute by minute preparations of Iranian ballistic missile bases. But having those apps on my phone during these specific times makes it likely that I'll be refreshing constantly.

    In the end it's not about un-informing ourselves but accepting that a small delay in that information will do our souls some benefit.

  • Not saying you should ignore the state of the world, or stop talking about it (I've done the opposite today) but social media is not conducive to that effort, even if the face of it may seem informative.

    Taking breaks from apps that turn these events into pseudo-entertainment and attention sucking vacuums makes it harder to engage with that.
