I love dogs of all breeds and sizes and I'm sure most of the time these are fine to be around. But this breed literally only exists to circumvent the exists banned breeds laws so I don't understand why the list can't be updated to include them.

Ok strange, looks to be a kbin problem. I don't see it on any Lemmy instance but on your instance I see that and on kbin.social I get another weird banner (not nsfw at least)

Wtf it's not for me (I haven't actually even set a banner).

Mind sharing a screenshot?

That's because you're technically not paying for your own pension. You pay for the current pension then the next generation will pay for yours.

Whole thing needs an overhaul but I wouldn't trust any of them to do it correctly

Triple lock and more pensioners than ever.

I look forward to not getting back anything that I pay in while the current people on state pension benefit way more than they contributed

 

Seems like .world is where all the big communities are but I'm sure there's other instances with some cool discussions going on

 

For personal finance discussions and news with a UK focus

It was always going to happen but an instance being the defacto default for Lemmy is a bad thing.

There really needs to be a tool to help people pick an instance, but even then people would just flock to the general instances like .world anyway

Jump in the orange end and come out the blue end. Fast travel unlocked. Who needs public transport

I still have a gut feeling they'll claw back support by the time of a GE

 

In addition, if a user subscribes to a Feddit UK community the comments from before they subbed won't appear unless they're loaded directly by a user on that instance

This needs updating, there's a shift to weighing people in kilograms now. Thank god

Nope but the general use is going to be overwhelmed by the idea of instances.

I'm a techie and I had to spend a good amount of time reading about how it all works before I felt comfortable joining here. So the average user would probably just give up and use something else.

The email comparison is definitely the best one I've seen so far but I still don't think it'll stick with people.

Is there an android gaming community anywhere?

It's not just articles though. A lot of commentary happens on twitter that never makes it to a long form article

 

I've been meaning to try out some new roasters recently so looking for some suggestions.
