    Squabbles.io also gained thousands of new users. But it's not invite based so the barrier to entry isn't the same as tildes

    Definitely feel you though OP on tagging reddit onto search keys for user opinions, I'm so guilty of this and it will be a hard habit to break.

    Sad to see hatred presented to us in the guise of protecting the children but unfortunately the UK has a history of taking pages from the tried and tested American playbook.

    I've got a De'Longhi workhorse so nothing fancy but I'm prepared to make people even angrier since I actually drastically reduced my caffeine intake a few years ago. I'm unable to give up my lifelong espresso habit entirely though so it's Lavazza Decaffeinato for me.

    I encourage anyone experiencing food insecurity in the UK to try the olio app. Post covid I was made aware just how many people could use a bit of help so beyond donating money, giving my time to help people in my community has really made me feel I can make a difference instead of just raging about the state of everything all the time. No idea if olio is worldwide but hopefully it will catch on everywhere.

    Hello from Scotland! I've abandoned ship and eventually landed here like most of you- lemmy seemed a bit too fussy to be a viable widespread consideration but I really like the familiar simplicity of tildes so far. I am interested in all sorts of things so would love to see this crazy little community grow.
