That’s surprising given how close you are to recreational use legalization. Here in Poland MM is legal but we don’t have any producers and get fair chunk from Germany (Aurora Deutschland, 420 Pharma).

At the same time medical marijuana business got so silly that you basically go to a website, fill out a form, pay ~€20 fee and get an e-prescription in a couple of hours. There’s been some ineffective attempts at cracking down on it in the past weeks that resulted in slight fee increase.

Medical marijuana is legal in Germany. If OP needs it for health reasons he could go through legitimate process.

THC will cause anxiety and paranoia if your tolerance is low or you use particularly stimulating cannabis strain. This is where CBD is very useful because it decreases psychedelic effect. You can use either a balanced strain (equal or similar THC / CBD content) or supplement CBD in other form.

Don’t know about Android but on iOS health information is something that an app can request on OS level.

There are valid uses for this, for example hearing level measurements from third party app can be added to Health app and then used for adjusting equalizer for AirPods via accessibility options. Or your menstrual cycle (although that probably won’t make your AirPods sound better) or many other data points. This is what Threads is trying to access.

It’s not about what you post but what data will Threads/Twitter/FB apps will trick you into sharing on system level (location etc).

It looks like it was removed by a mod. If a user deleted it it would have <deleted> in place of comment text rather than <removed>. This user also deleted his account but that wouldn’t delete his posts/comments.

The Verge peeps are rather enthusiastic about Activity Pub based platforms, I wouldn’t attribute bad intent there.

Linux is used by most of the world but it’s either backend where techies take care of things or super streamlined experiences like Android etc.

I knew this part would ruffle some feathers since whomever is reading it here is probably on board with Lemmy/Kbin.

I do think that for many it’s too early but there’s now significant interest into making everything a bit more stable and streamlined. I think Mastodon is already there but it is suffering from bad rep from their own waves of migration. I’m a bit worried it’ll be the same for Lemmy.

I don’t think it’s unpopular as in “people don’t like it”. I get the impression that very few people in the US have ever heard of this series, which is a shame.
