sadbehr, in What is the most unhelpful advice you have received?

When talking to someone about mental illness: “You know it’s all in your head right?”

Bird,
@Bird@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t … how do you even reply to that? Wow thanks, I’m cured?

sadbehr,
@sadbehr@lemmy.nz avatar

I said “you’re absolutely right” and left it at that. They were trying to get to the idea that mental illness is made up and shit like that. I don’t feed into that sort of stuff so the conversation didn’t carry on after that lol.

Valmond,

If you stop and listen to idiots, you won’t go far.

zos_kia,

Sombyr, in Those who tried Linux and went back to Windows, what caused you to go back to Windows?
@Sombyr@lemmy.one avatar

The anticheat for a game I liked to play with my wife didn’t work on Linux and playing in a VM barely worked due to the game’s outdated spaghetti code. It was more important to me at the time because the game was how I met her and at the time we weren’t dating yet, she was just a friend I was crushing on big time, enough to reinstall windows for her.

We don’t even really play it anymore, so maybe I’ll switch back to Linux. I still got mint installed on dual boot, just never thought about starting it up until now. I always did like how a couple of terminal commands could fix like, 99% of issues whereas windows says “Noooo… You have to reinstall me for the 20,000th time! It’s the only way!”

200cc,

The reason you switched back to windows is dating girls?

Lots of people suffer from sleep paralysis and/or psychosis.

DarthVi, in What's a quote that has stuck with you for your whole life?
@DarthVi@lemmy.ml avatar

“Why not? You and I are eccentrics. We’re certainly not typical of the people living on Terminus. As for criminals, that’s a matter of definition. And if criminals are the price we must pay for rebels, heretics, and geniuses, I’m willing to pay it. I demand the price be paid. […] You can’t have geniuses and saints without having people far outside the norm, and I don’t see how you can have on only one side of the norm. There is bound to be a certain symmetry.” - Foundation and Earth by Isaac Asimov

This is a support question related to how to use Lemmy. Please see the sidebar for communities which offer support.

hsl, in just discovered the awwsome migration tool of Voyager. Spent an hour subscribing to the lemmy versions of my subscribed subreddits, but im only up to the letter D. Surely theres a way to automate?

This is a support question, please see the sidebar for communities that could help you out.

theCheek,

Understood. My apologies. Please feel free to delete this post.

EyesEyesBaby,

Why don’t you do it yourself

Blizzard,

Are you referring to this? How is it a migration tool?

zahel,

In the settings is a “Migrate subreddits” button which you can load in your multi Reddit of all your subscriptions and it’ll show you subs on lemmy that are an exact or close match to easily subscribe

Kolanaki, in Downvotes = “I disagree” or “this is bad and you should feel bad”?
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

Up = I like this

Down = I hate this

If you have more ups than downs: The viewers commonly liked it.

If you have more downs than ups: The viewers commonly hated it.

It’s simple and it’s how it’s always worked, and likely will continue to work, regardless of any deeper sentiments some people may have about it.

I wish there was a new button that simply meant “I have no opinion on this one way or another.” But I guess that’s simply non-engagement.

queermunist,
@queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

It doesn’t have to be a button. Just let users see how many other users saw their comment. If a user scrolls into the comments section and stops on my comment for a second or two, that counts as a read.

Alternatively, tally up the total number of user-seconds spent viewing my comment. Or maybe an average. Just something that lets me know I’m not a ghost!

DubiousInterests,

I use it as:

up = this should be here

Down = this should not be here

Course I have my own biases but. I don’t want to see people get downvoted for saying things I don’t like just because I don’t like it. Also anyone who downvotes honest questions is just being mean.

Dinodicchellathicc,

I dont believe you.

kunic, in do you guys shop on places like aliexpress/Temu and if you do what items have pleasantly surprised you?
@kunic@kbin.social avatar

Sometimes if there's a good deal for something I know I want. For instance, I was wanting an RG35XX (portable retro console). I had never heard about Temu, went there and got the $100 off bundle (basically a set of thresholds to hit for up to $100 off). I found the RG35XX for $53 ($17 less than Amazon), and that coupon knocked it down to $28. For me that was a no brainer.

yuunikki,

On Temu I mostly just stick to little stupid things like $1 bundles of stickers or something

Hexophile, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I’m using it when looking for specific information about specific topics (tutorials, product reviews) but I haven’t looked at the front page since the announcement

limeaide, in In which game did you spend the most hours?

Overall i’ve spent countless hours in minecraft and csgo for a close second

Recently tho I’ve been playing a lot of bloons and risk of rain 2. They’re both really addictive

Sombyr, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?
@Sombyr@lemmy.one avatar

Only to view NSFW images when I really don’t have any other option. I don’t have an account anymore though so usually it’s not worth the trouble. Lemmy really just doesn’t have the diversity reddit did with that yet.

BaroqueInMind, in How do I block all porn/nude posts?
@BaroqueInMind@kbin.social avatar

OP, not only are you a sexist moron, but you have proven to also be a humble idiot aware of his mistakes.

I have no issues seeing porn on here because I don't have the maturity of a child like you do, and I hope one day you will grow up and not allow a harmless nipple to set you off.

doyadig,

you are right. and I’m working on it. I should have rephrased this a lot better.

AceFuzzLord, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I just recently got around to archiving posts of mine before deleting my account, so I literally have no ties other than those on the Wayback Machine.

Needless to say, I don’t go back and I do my absolute best to avoid any and all links from it whenever possible.

AceFuzzLord, in What goes good with American Cheese?

I’d personally say nothing since I just do not like it at all.
