Fair enough. I tend to avoid apps and just use websites, so I don’t have that problem
- Comment on Pixelfed Server Directory 2.0 is here! 6 days ago:
What app are you using?
- Comment on Pixelfed Server Directory 2.0 is here! 6 days ago:
Maybe I got one too!
Such a hectically petty thing to do

2 down-voters don’t like federation?
- Comment on Has Reddit acknowledged the existence of Lemmy? 1 week ago:
I hope it continues as Lemmy gets bigger, but I’m kind of doubtful it won’t eventually decay in the same way as reddit. At least, I don’t see anything inherently different that would avoid that. Perhaps the federation and moderation structure might help, but that doesn’t seem certain yet…

Man, fuck wet wipes. They are such horrible pollution.
Take some toilet paper and some sanitiser instead.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Go in with low expectations, and you’ll probably have a good time. Here’s some to start with:
You’ll be sore from walking. Sleeping might be uncomfortable or cold, or wet. Food will probably be crap, or hard to cook. Animals will freak you out in the middle of the night, or try to eat your food. You’ll smell like smoke (unless it’s a fire ban, then you’ll be cold). Taking a dump in the bush is not comfortable, even after you get used to it.
It’s type 2 fun though, so it’ll be good in hindsight. Also you’ll probably see a bunch of beautiful shit and maybe get to swim somewhere nice. Just gotta give it a go, and see if it’s for you. Personally I love it.

Don’t lots of places in the US show the full breakdown of takes on every receipt? I remember that from travelling through some south western states…
- Comment on A load of mastodon users think groups are just autoboost accounts. 2 weeks ago:
Because that’s what’s mastodon groups are (e.g. the a.gup.pe). Mastodon doesn’t have actual native groups, so bots-as-groups is a work around.
Mastodon doesn’t fully federate with Lemmy, so while you can partially interact with Lemmy users and communities, you can’t meaningfully partake in conversations here.
- Comment on A list of casual communities on Lemmy (that aren't just tech news or politics) 2 weeks ago:
Would be cool if lemmy communities could just tag themselves, so a directory like this could be automatically generated… Maybe even just hashtags in the sidebar or something.
- Comment on The Social Network That Can't Sell Out: Understanding Mastodon vs. Bluesky 3 weeks ago:
The mastodon is not a platform though, it’s a protocol/standard and the software to run it. Individual mastodon services/platforms will come and go. I think if they become too much of a product (and enshittify), then people will leave, because they can without much pain.
- Comment on The Social Network That Can't Sell Out: Understanding Mastodon vs. Bluesky 3 weeks ago:
Still useful to post though, it’s a decent simple over view that can be shared elsewhere
- Comment on The Social Network That Can't Sell Out: Understanding Mastodon vs. Bluesky 3 weeks ago:
Twitter is the first time a global social media giant has seen a major exodus (I guess the second if you count MySpace, but the reasons were pretty different). The sample size is very low… It’s easy to forget how new all of this is.
- Comment on The Social Network That Can't Sell Out: Understanding Mastodon vs. Bluesky 3 weeks ago:
Why are you on Lemmy? Or, why do you think the decentralised model works here, but not on mastodon?
Or is it only working because there is no third party VC-backed reddit clone?
- Comment on The Social Network That Can't Sell Out: Understanding Mastodon vs. Bluesky 3 weeks ago:
I don’t think anyone is claiming technical superiority. And certainly not financial superiority.
But maybe some kind of resilience to the forces of destruction plaguing commercial social media.

Sounds like you need a union

Awesome, thanks!

Hey Mods, any chance you could add some links to some.of the communities mentioned here to the sidebar?

I’m happy to help mod, if you like, sure :)
- Comment on How do people develop feelings for someone? 4 weeks ago:
I don’t thing you can make others do that. Just be yourself as much as you can (I know that’s not easy for some people), and don’t be a dick, and it’ll happen eventually.
I think maybe coming at it obliquely is best. Don’t make it your main aim, because desperation is off-putting, but keep it in your awareness so that you catch it when it presents itself.
Personally I found doing stuff with others based around a common interest the easiest way to meet people who had a similar world-view. And from there it’s easier to stumble upon people who might find you attractive. Getting mutually excited with someone about a shared interest can be pretty attractive.

Sooo… Narcissists are a type of vampire?
- Comment on Dramatic sell-off of US government bonds as tariff war panic deepens 5 weeks ago:
Trump could undo everything of the last 10 weeks and investor confidence in the US would still be shot, because he’s unpredictable. I can’t imagine anything short of him stepping down would turn this around…
- Comment on "Suggest a community" community? 5 weeks ago:
Not quite the same thing, but that looks very complimentary, thanks!
- Comment on "Suggest a community" community? 5 weeks ago:
Makes sense. It would be good if the mods added linkes between them to each community’s sidebar.
- Comment on "Suggest a community" community? 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, that’s basically the idea. I have actually seen that before, now that you point it out, but I didn’t find it when searching, because “desired” is a kind of unusual word in this context (at least for me). I wonder if you could add “suggestions for new communities” or something like that to the title?
Also, do you expect the suggested communities be implemented on hilariouschaos.com, or are you up for them being hosted on any server?
- Comment on "Suggest a community" community? 5 weeks ago:
It’s riffing off a canadian telephone directory. Agreed, not a universally useful name…
- Comment on "Suggest a community" community? 5 weeks ago:
That seems like a related, but different thing. More like a community search?
Also the name is meaningless outside canada, so not that easy to find for the rest of us…
- Comment on "Suggest a community" community? 5 weeks ago:
That seems much more like this community, !newcommunities@lemmy.world …

Absolutely agree that that’s high on the list. I don’t really understand how it’s so popular.
