It's impossible to quantify such a claim right now. Lemmy instances are still largely poorly-ranked in search engine rankings. For instance, I can search for a comment that I've written on Lemmy from months ago, word for word in quotes, and Google can't actually find it anywhere. It's a string of text that has no other results, either.

These should be banned

Agreed. As somebody who vapes, myself, it drives me crazy seeing discarded batteries littering the streets around here. The only legitimate use I've seen for disposable vapes was for use in prisons. There's a company that makes disposable vapes that are designed with intentionally flimsy materials, so that no part of it can be fashioned into a weapon or be used to start fires.

But for the average, non-incarcerated user, there's no excuse for it. They're more expensive in the long run, and far worse for the environment. If you're gonna vape, just buy yourself a proper mod kit, where there is much less waste produced.

Of course not. But that's why deleting your account is a double-edged blade. Yeah, you can fuck over Reddit a little bit by doing this (realistically they probably made less than $1 from any one user's tech solution posts). But the people who really get fucked over by this are users outside of Reddit, looking for answers to their problems.

I'm not saying either option is right or wrong. But there's absolutely a cost incurred in deleting content like that, and the one who ends up paying most of it is not the one who was targeted to begin with.

Dollars to donuts Trump doesn't even know this dude exists.

As someone who wants to work in medicine, I can also attest to the fact that how you live your life is equally as important as what you consume.

As someone who wants to smoke a doobie on the ISS, I can attest to the fact that your dreams are not qualifiers for uneducated opinions.

What a trash article.

That title and thumbnail are pure poetry.

Well that didn't take long, did it?

You're responsible for who you spread it to.

Also, calling people "cuck" in 2023, lmao

What

Again, puberty blockers are not treating depression. They're treating gender dysphoria in this example. I can tell you still don't know what "comorbidity" means.

In your expert medical opinion, how do you think gender dysphoria is treated? Here's a hint: It's described in the articles you still haven't read.

Puberty blocking is a form of therapy. Puberty blockers are a form of medication.

Gender dysphoria isn't depression (look up "comorbidity"; it's a big word, so I'll give you some time), you wouldn't treat it with antidepressants. That's like taking an antacid for a headache.

"My beliefs come from peer reviewed studies" is such obvious horse shit. You didn't read the studies I linked you to, clearly.

This conversation is done until you can prove to me that you've read and understood the studies provided to you. Since, y'know, that's what your beliefs are supposedly based on. You can prove me wrong whenever.

Heres what we do for suicidal patients: we give them therapy and medication.

What the flying fuck do you think puberty blockers are, you absolute necrosed gonad?
