Thanks!

That’s not the point I was contesting. I agree with that. I just don’t agree with minimizing what Biden has done and acting like he’s just passively complicit in all this while making the point that Trump is terrible. They’re both awful and Biden has done way worse than “nothing”.

You can think that all you’d like but it’s wrong. You’re literally saying that because others have done a thing, someone else doing the thing is actually doing nothing. Literal nonsense. Trump is and will be worse, but it’s absolute worse cope to simp for a president like Biden who actively contributed to what’s happening there. It would make for a way more productive discussion if you and everyone else would concede that instead of doubling down on this imaginary idea that Biden did nothing.

McCarthyism never ended lol

Biden actively pushed for and got more weapons sent to Israel that enabled all this. If “just didn’t do shit” is actually doing lots of shit that was bad, then sure he “just didn’t do shit”.

I ignore the shorts. The app still has them lol. Sorry if that was unclear. I just choose to watch normal length content on there. I think you can use NewPipe and filter out shorts content with your settings though, if that’s something that interests you.

I use Jerboa currently. I was using Relay for reddit and the two aren’t really similar, I just switched to it because I saw it recommended the most when I was leaving reddit during the API fiasco. I haven’t tried any of the other apps because I’m used to this one now and it gets the job done.

I deleted my Instagram a couple weeks ago out of anger and spite when the TikTok ban briefly went into effect. I also uninstalled TikTok and kept it uninstalled even after it was unbanned and really only have Lemmy and YouTube (not shorts). It’s been a nice reset for my brain. My deleting Instagram has made a couple friends a bit sad because they liked to send me memes, but we still text so honestly I haven’t missed it at all. All that to say, I highly recommend deleting Instagram.
