You had to name it like that, didn't you?

I've been trying to get on Bluesky for ages. Unfortunately they're really stingy with invite links. I know it's gonna sound really bad, but... you don't happen to have one you could give away?

Unfortunately you're right

See, this is what I think people get wrong about ad tech: the problem are not the ads themselves, but the tracking. I'm completely fine with ads, as long as I'm not tracked by their provider

Saeco is Gaggia

I wonder if there is a difference between Smeg coffee machines and other appliances

IDK, maybe they are so simple that they don't break. Or they are so inexpensive that people don't even file warranty cases when they do

Yeah what strikes me the most about this is the fact that Sage and ECM have the same reliability (within the first 2 years, anyway). ECM is usually considered high-end, reliable stuff, while Sage/Breville is considered to be unreliable.

Too bad about Ascaso, but the data confirms what Ascaso owners have been saying online, I guess.

Also Lelit, WTF

No problem, it happens a lot!

Switzerland - Swiss

Sweden - Swedish

*Switzerland, but yes, they do not sell a lot here

Lol strangely enough, the website only sells Jura accessories, no coffee machines

I get your point about the trans community. We absolutely need safe spaces for trans people. I'm not opposed to the idea of a sheltered community for vulnerable or harassed people (and in fact, for years, Mastodon was mainly a safe haven for trans people who were harassed on Twitter: Mastodon's history is steeped in trans culture).

But I would understand this kind of aggressive defederation from an hypothetical mastodon.trans or from an explicitly lgbtq instance. Just not from mastodon.art, that's it.

Then there's Beehaw here on Lemmy. Some observations could apply to it too, but the situation is kind of different
