I’m back to my usual Lemmy shenanigans!

**I’ve been gone from lemm.ee for a while. Why is that?**Well, for one: I’ve been quite busy. I haven’t been able to access lemmy.world on my Chromebook, so I decided to shift back to using Lemm.ee for now on here! Keep in mind, both accounts will be cross-posting, so follow whichever you see fit! Something I do, however, want to say is that I have been getting even more involved with the Fediverse nowadays, having accounts on Misskey and Mastodon/Aethy. I have been a huge fan of these sites for a while now, and - when Reddit became something that tons of people despised - I promoted Lemmy to users leaving Reddit for its API changes. I didn’t know that Lemmy was popular enough to get put on a blocklist, but, apparently, it is! That is actually a huge W for Lemmy because that means it is getting popular enough that schools are actually having to ban it. Unfortunately, this also means information that could be useful to school students are banned from their fingertips. It is incredibly sad that people see places like Reddit and Lemmy as only “social media platforms” rather than tools that students can use. I feel that trust should happen between students and teachers enough to not block an entire site from existants. That should only happen with inappropriate sites (for example: P0rn sites).

**Trust your students more.**They may not be the smartest tools in the shed, but when you allow them Internet access and they use it right, it can give them so much information that they wouldn’t have originally had. Anyways, that’s all from me! Happy 1st of October!
