What things do you do while eating?

I have a terrible habit of watching Youtube while I eat, and then one video turns to ten and I’ve wasted the entire day. I’ve tried just not watching it while I eat, but JUST eating is so incredibly boring that I cave in and turn it on regardless. I can’t get any work done while eating either, since it takes me out of flow...

Why does "hide read posts" apply to my own submitted posts?

It’s strange and unintuitive that my own submitted posts are hidden with this basic feature. Given the slow pace on some communities as Lemmy grows, it gets really repetitive without the ability to filter out read posts. On the other side though, the ability to review my posts and check back on them seems pretty basic as a...

[Request] Add 'Redirect to home instance in new tab' option to browser context menu

In navigating Lemmyverse for potential communities to subscribe to, it would be helpful to be able to redirect links to my home instance in a new tab to facilitate sorting through multiple communities at a time. Ideally, the option would be implemented with the ability to enable or disable either of the two context menu items to...

Recommended DNS provider for use in Australia?

I have been using NextDNS over the past two years, and am generally happy with their service. However, I’ve never compared their quality against the other recommended ones (like Control D, Quad 9, Mullvad, etc) particularly in terms of ping. I’m based in Australia. Any fellow Aussies using any of these services and care to...

VPN blocking VPN connections

Slightly confusing, and not necessarily directly piracy-related. I run OpenVPN on my Netgear router that allows me to connect to devices on my home network while I am away from home. It works great for most devices, but I cannot connect to any devices that are running Mullvad VPN. Disabling Mullvad on those devices allows me to...

At what point is violence on a large scale justified?

I know this is a really vague question, but it’s been on my mind A LOT lately. I’m specifically asking about people fighting on behalf of a group that is subject to oppression of some kind. 3 years ago, with all of the protests in America that included violence majorly against property and minorly against people but were...

Why are we as humans obsessed with mass-extinction of our species?

I was having a conversation with my friend about this. We were discussing AI and she believes AI will destroy all of humanity just like so many others. I personally don’t believe that. I’m aware of all the theories and the multitude of ways that it could happen and I understand that with AI, in theory we wouldn’t...

Is there a web client for Soulseek?

I’m currently running Nicotine+ on my PC for audio downloading, and it works great. However, if I want to download some music on another device, I have to remote in, download the album I want, and then transfer the files to the other device. Since my mobile reception is not very good where I work, I download music to listen...
