You mean an apprenticeship?

and OP didn’t credit it 👀

I have sometimes wondered: instead of elections, what if we could register a vote, which we could change any time? This might not have been feasible with paper ballots, but in an age of increasing digitalization, this should work.

I do see the downside though that most coalitions would only last a couple of months as majorities shift.

Another idea: A website where people can directly vote on issues, no representatives needed.

It’s too soon to call him your boyfriend but not too soon to move in together?

Reuters is still reporting on the epstein files, so what’s wrong?

I don’t think this is specific to lemmy. We generally like to hear people agree with us, and social media allows us to a) find spaces with like-minded people b) block people we don’t like from interacting with us

We put ourselves into echo chambers where our assumptions and opinions are never challenged. You might talk about people with different opinions, but rarely to them. Live in that environment long enough, and you stop to question your convictions, and become increasingly incapable of articulating why you hold them, or to consider the perspective of ‘the opponent’.

One thing I like about having human friends is the shared human experience. No AI could replace that.

Admins don’t need any qualifications, and neither do the mods they choose.

If you like a community but not its mods, you may be able to find a similar community on another instance, alternatively you may try starting a “competing” community yourself.
