Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.
Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.
Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

The difference is, I can finish my feed, in Reddit I could not, but boredom won every time lol.
Yeah that's because reddit shows you posts that even you're not subscribed to, while Lemmy doesn't unless you browse all.
Well, Reddit did not for me, I used Sync for Reddit and never detected this behavior.
Ah right.. I only switched to 3rd party apps at a later time so I was mostly used to the standard experience.
Huh that sucks mate, well, you are better here.
Someone just passive-aggressively reminded me I could block people on Mastodon, and if I can't adhere to CW requests perhaps I should get off Mastodon. Wow, I've only beeon on the Internet since 1999, Twitter since 2008 and Mastodon last November. I don't know how to block ah? Wah.
these Mastodon HOA people are one kind.
PS: A few days ago, I blew my top when someone told me to CW my food photos. Since food is the way us Malaysians talk to each other on Mastodon, I feel it's really too much they ask me to CW. Since then a few people explained that food can be triggering to people with eating disorders. But then other people say CW can also worsen eating disorders. Apalah you cannot win. Why don't they leave us alone lol. I think i'll just limit my posts to #MakanApaToday and #FediTiam and exclude #Food cos I dah fed up with the HOA* people. This is sad cos I use #Food so we can reach non-Malaysians, but it attracts the hornets. Maybe I use #expatasia instead (someone asked me to include the hashtag so the expats can find these posts)
All of this nonsense makes me glad that we have a "safe" space here on monyet.cc, where we can be completely Malaysian without some reply dude/dudette come and lecture you for melanggar some cultural rule you are not even aware of. I feel more relaxed here. A bit sad. I now understand why Black Twitter never felt comfortable enough in the Fediverse.
*Home Owners Association - people on Mastodon who patrol it to make sure everyone behave and follow rules. Like prefects, but worse.
Whoa, I'm on mastodon and love pics of food. What's your @?
It's at hachyderm.io/@liztai
New on monyet.cc. Whats cooking?
Just curious, why is the 10^th^ July daily thread pinned?
Huh? It wasn't pinned on my end tho
Interesting...
10th july was the day monyet.cc turned federation off for protection against the xss bug, so when the mods unpinned that day's daily thread at the end of the day, the action was not federated.
probably a solution would be to repin and then unpin it again, but if that doesn't work, maybe you'll need to see if the admins of lemmy.zip can help you.
Thanks for the help 👍🏻👍🏻
no problem 👌
Eh btw I can't seem to tag you right, but: since you brought it up here hari tu, ada lagi backstory about firefish dev.
that's an interesting backstory, thanks for sharing it with me
hopefully this will all be over soon, and the devs can go back to making firefish/iceshrimp/whatever a good and worthwhile fork
edit: btw, do you know if the "soapbox" they mentioned is soapbox.pub? do you have any idea what was so offensive that soapbox did that merely hosting your code on their gitlab can be used as a point in an argument?
I'm also at the wait and see with iceshrimp. my general pref software-wise here would be hajkey but atm they're committed to being soft fork from firefish because their own dev capacity limits but if iceshrimp devs are legit working on the security issues etc then likely hajkey will move to them imo. Just wish I have enough technical acumen to play around and spin an instance whichever software it is.
Man people do be asking if the pakcik selling cheap nasi campur from his car is paying taxes.
Do you want to get beat up or what?
Even if they want to, they likely doesn't make enough to get taxed. These people got nothing to do ke wtf
@.@ you underestimate a lot of F&B sellers, their profit margin is insane... many have very low operating cost cause they occupy public space and what not.
Not all lah, else they already rich lor
Most are rich if they could survive the first couple of years. They just live a very modest life.
Most don’t even pay tax, do cash business. Operating illegally without license.
Youtube (& Youtubers) really want us to watch Oppenheimer. Every other video on my feed is about either the atom bomb or th WWII, Japan's conflict specifically.
found our jiran: lemmy.my.id
there's a couple more but this is the largest, at 76 users.
I'm surprised Malaysians are the most engaged in the #redditmigration compared to our neighbours. Nobody in Sg made an instance of their own (searched via https://lemmyverse.net).
p.s. maling'd so hard they even claimed the .my 😭
