I’m always like “who the fuck uses Instagram?” I guess I’m living in a different world entirely.

I call that TikTok face, it’s the modern take on edginess.

Not that Google is much better by any measure though. They’re both trash.

I’m talking about a specific level of brain rot mind you, I can accept the lower level that is typical of Lemmy meme communities but not quite corporate social network levels.

Can we please leave TikTok face on TikTok? I come here specifically to escape the brain rot.

Am I missing something or can you just get around this by not having it on the Internet? Like you could just start shuffling a bunch of flash drives around.

*yawns in Apple TV* I haven’t seen an ad online in like 5+ years

I’m genuinely confused what you mean by that. What do you mean by that?

In general I’m on board with your sentiment but this is clearly zoomed in and there’s a clear description of what you’re supposed to see in the “two pixels.”

No shit?

Right? Why the hell would anyone think this? There are a lot of articles lately like “is AI alive?” Please, it’s 2025 and it can hardly do autocomplete correctly.

Why do we care though?

I just block and move on. I’m in my own happy echo chamber and don’t come here for trolls.

The only thing that is healthy — the water — comes in a plastic bottle. 🤮

Ruby on Rails developer here, why is that bad? Honestly Python feels old and shitty, PHP is a joke, and I can’t think of any other language I’d prefer.

For my personal setup I’ve been wanting to do it on a VPS I have. I route my traffic through a bundle of VPNs from the US to Switzerland and I end up needing to clear browser cache often (web developer testing JavaScript, etc) on my end devices.

each site hosts their own copy of jQuery or whatever the kids use these days

I do this in my projects (Hotwire) but I wish I could say the same for other websites. I still run into broken websites due to trying to import jQuery from Google for example. This would be another nice thing to have cached.
