I’m not sure and I don’t really care. But I’m assuming its just the admin’s personal dislike of lemmy.ml. Regardless, I chose this instance because of it. I’m sure there are still small number of users acting in good faith on lemmy.ml, but I just don’t wanna deal with their admins’ tankie influence and the higher ratio of trolls on that instance.

I mean, I don’t care if people accidentally waste their time making mean comments that I can’t see, but the problem is if .ml can still the see posts, they can downvote and I wouldn’t be see those downvotes to be able to know if there’s brigading.

Um… no, this is a new account. The defederation happened a while ago, which is the reason why I chose infosec.pub

https://lemmy.ml/u/error_100_000_100@infosec.pub

I just check https://infosec.pub/instances it says lemmy.ml is defeded

Bug? 🤔

I was in highschool at the time. I just got suspended like a week before school officially closed for covid. It was for a fight, and I was in self-defence, and the bully probably picked me to harass probably because I’m Chinese-American and probably blamed me for Covid. I got arrested, but charges were eventually dropped, after like 10 months and multiple virtual court hearings or some bullshit.

I was glad to suspended from school, I fucking hate it. I always wanted to just skip it and get a GED (its a test you take to get the equivalent of a High School Diploma). So yea, eventually, I just quit and took the GED, passed on first try, zero studying (I mean, cmon, that shits easy), the scores when converted to GPA are better than my actual GPA anyways 🤷‍♂️

At that time I researched a lot about immigration laws, and learned that the USCIS could see juvenile arrests and “convictions” (its technically called “adjundicated delinquent”) within the past 5 years, and also any adult arrests and convictions. Including overturned, sealed, or even pardoned ones. Laws are so bullshit, I’m glad my mother’s naturalization gave me citizenship, it’d be so bullshit to potentially get deported for a school fight.

I was always a loner, I just chilled and watched a lot of pirated Movies and TV Shows, I remember watching a lot of Youtube, particularly Jacksepticeye (very wholesome btw).

(Btw, why does this world suck so much? 😓)

Tbf, I hate the maximum password character limit even more.

Like WTF even is that.

Minumum, I get it.

Maximum?!? 🤣 WTF LOL

I have a fucking password manager, let me use a 128 character password for fucks sake

2FA is too inconvienient* and I think using a password manager to generate a very long password is good enough.

Software 2FA is not even that much more secure to be worth the inconvienience.

And for hardware 2FA keys, there is a higher chance for me to misplace those keys than getting hacked. (I don’t have friends to put a backup key in and I don’t wanna pay for a safe deposit box)

[*For me personally, your security needs might be different. I don’t work with any sensitive classified info or anything like that.]
