I guess it's because many young adults move far away from home to get jobs in cities.

In the past young adults probably would have stayed living near their family, so they could see them easily.

Ethernet is obviously better but running ethernet around your home can be a pain in the arse

Can't I get a return trip? It's going to be annoying to get a train or plane to take me home.

Someone could create an instance if they wanted right? The code is on GitHub

Maybe there's more to it though, I dunno.

People thought the first Trump presidency was a politically divided time, but maybe we're now entering an even more divided time, given that social media is now fragmenting along political lines, more prominently than it did before.

I don't think age makes people conservative, I think power makes people conservative. If you accumulate wealth and power then you may become conservative in order to protect your wealth from taxes.

Just as others in this thread have said, it's the "fuck you, I got mine" attitude.

Tsai, who left office in January, added: “A Ukrainian victory will serve as the most effective deterrent to future aggression.” This suggests Tsai believes that US military support for Kyiv... would help deter China from a cross-strait attack.

I've never banned anybody for saying their view, and I don't think I'd support someone being banned for saying their view, as long as they're being respectful, and as long as they're not advocating anything criminal.

Personally I would like to be able to talk to people with different views, in a civil manner. But Lemmy.ml doesn't seem to want that. If you post something that they don't like (even if it's a very moderate view and is expressed in a completely civil way) then they ban you. They seem to really hate moderate people.
