I think paid instances are fine. Provided they actually provide more reliability, etc. although right now, many free instances are reliable enough. And a subscription cost to run your own single or friend group instance probably wouldn’t be much either.

Although I could see a paid service which runs an instance for you, but you get to use your own domain name and such. Kind of like those Minecraft hosting services. Okay, I’m on another tangent.

Leaked their roblox account 💀

Dubvee is a silly place. I first heard about it because they banned me.

Ooh that’s nice. Wasn’t Kbin trying to do this?

Wasn’t it more conspiracies about democracy being compromised?

Difference is she didn’t kill anybody that we know of

She was likely a victim of the maga extremism indoctrination and social media, this is a bit distasteful

The coup failed though so they clearly did something right with minimal loss of life

Why does it actually matter? If you’re that important, you should have your own domain and instance

I know ☹️

Email works well and is federated

Good point

I actually have some same text for funerals as well. Although had to change it because unfortunately a friend of mine was hit with a second bereavement

I have birthdays in my calendar! People seem to be pleasantly surprised that I remember their birthday

To be fair I use the same card design every year, so it probably wouldn’t be much worse

That’s not very polite unfortunately ☹️
