Because it isn’t free, from the perspective of your Lemmy instance you’ll be spam requesting until you find content. Doing it this way ensures you’re less likely to hammer an instance.

You’re going to need to give more information than this zero context screenshot. Is this a virus scanner? If so, which? Why are you scanning? What caused this series of events? What’s the full content of this popup?

Absolute worse case scenario: whatever you’re doing will not irreparably damage your PC. If you break windows or whatever you can just wipe your pc and reinstall windows via a usb stick. However, it’s not clear what’s going on here.

How does the process of requesting a street charger work, wouldn’t that require council approval or some such?

Because it doesn’t have millions of users in the EU and near a billion in revenue

People who use WhatsApp but have friends who want to use signal and vice versa.

Your average person really does not care about this stuff,they just want something easy and familiar. This is good for people who care enough to use signal but still want to actually chat to people.

Join their discord, it’s helpful. I can’t imagine why it wouldn’t let you login, shame because it really is the best ATM.

this isn’t a “gen Z” problem, this is a “normal people” problem. Most people just want something easy, accessible, and familiar.

I subscribe to mostly Lemmy.world instances,

you subscribe to communities on the lemmy.world instance. Ultimately, lemmy.world doesn’t exist without the efforts of the developers behind Lemmy, so that’s definitely more important imo.

Someone will either have to clean it up for you anyway or it goes down the drain and contributes to your local drainage problems

This is not entirely correct. lemmy.world hasn’t defederated from dbzer0, but it has blocked it’s largest piracy community.

I’ve heard a lot of people report this, it’s definitely an issue.

That’s also how IRC works and most chat platforms are heavily inspired by IRC, unless you use a program (bouncer) that kept you online 24/7. I assume there must be something similar for Matrix

One of many reasons people left IRC for Discord.

I just block them whenever they pop up on my feed. It is annoying but they have have ~20 active communities on Lemmygrad and Hexbear each, at some point you’ll run out of places to block and they’re gone.

Just block the ‘tankie’ communities and/or subscribe to communities you’re actually interested in instead of browsing c/all

ZLibrary never went down fully. There were always ways to access it.
