• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can't see images from lemmy.world instance because my country has banned lemmy.world, is there any effort going on to solve this issue?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Effort by whom? My advice would be to use a VPN to get around your the block.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: You can browse reddit with a VPN by using RedLib⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I started a RDR2 play through a while back and I was shocked at how much content I was finding in Reddit comments for the random stuff I was looking up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is there steam coming out of the streets in New York⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They left? All the banks still use them in the middle of the US. So do drive through pharmacies that have an extra lane.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dansup promises Loops federation beta 'later this week'⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably won’t have one for a while. Pixelfed still doesn’t have one afaik and that’s another of their projects.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mastodon Spam⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been on mastodon for a couple of years and received my first like that just over the past week.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've tried nearly every browser out there and these are my top 6 (none are Chrome)⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  this era of the internet was such a fun time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pets hate the vet clinic and groomer because they smell the combined terror/anger of a thousand other animals who've been poked and prodded in that room⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This puts a lot of trust in the vets and vet staff, I don’t think I’d be comfortable with it. I definitely see the benefits but it seems like owners should accompany the pet to the visit, at least for the exam portion. It’s too much of an opportunity for good communication between the vet and the owner, especially since the pet can’t speak for themselves.

  The best way to protect kids is to stop having them ffs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New joiner on Lemm.ee couldn't see any post due to English not being selected, is this a known issue?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t there a warning about this in the Lemmy UI? I could’ve sworn I’ve seen something like that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube launches a $7.99 per month, ad-free Premium Lite subscription⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah especially without full feature parity with YouTube premium. This $7.99 price should omit music but everything else from premium should be included, and even that feels a little expensive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube launches a $7.99 per month, ad-free Premium Lite subscription⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  lol wait, that’s just YouTube premium isn’t it?? and that’s existed for a long time already

  Every previous YouTube premium post used to be inundated with people asking for a YouTube premium that didn’t include music because everyone already has music from Apple or Spotify. This is YouTube’s offering for that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gmail alternative: good idea to use personal domain+hosting?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  With apple you’re limited to 5 sending addresses per domain, so no I cannot reply as the from address to most, but that hasn’t been an issue for me at all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gmail alternative: good idea to use personal domain+hosting?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Depends on your use case. I went with using a custom domain with my iCloud mail account. This lets me accept all messages sent to my custom domain.

  So when I create accounts I just use that as the email address like this: lemmy@customDomain.com, bsky@customDomain.com, etc.

  They all go to one mailbox but that’s all I need anyway. I’ve been happy with it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are mood problems a “turn off” for people even when they’re hard to manage?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah seeing OP type “I can’t control that” so many times about anger was wild.

  I understand you can’t control the initial feeling of anger but you absolutely can control how you respond to it coming.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk’s X is now worth less than a quarter of its $44 billion purchase price⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I’m sure I’m not the norm but I’m actually shocked when I see companies advertising their/their talent’s twitter accounts on tv broadcasts. I truly can’t believe that site is still mainstream after everything that’s happened.

  Idk then I look over and see trump as a presidential candidate and ugh… I guess I’m just still not comfortable/accepting of how far off the rails things have gone 🙁
