I know people prefer to complain instead of act, but what is something people don’t like but has an alternative?

When I was on Reddit I felt like my opinion didn’t matter. But here it just feels more open and free.

Hey Folks!...

On reddit I could do something like r/subname and it would just work. How do I do that on Lemmy?

I’m trying to build my own degoogled ROM for me, so what are you suggesting? For now I’m on OpenBoard.

I posted this question because I once saw a tweet that said something like:...

I had been feeling a bit drawn in to reddit for the past few months before the divorce. I feel like the slower pace at which content comes out on Lemmy is good for me in that way. I can’t just scroll and scroll and scroll my entire day away....

For context, I live in Hong Kong where most people drink tap water after boiling first. Some may install water filter but may still boil the water. Very few drink bottle water unless they’re outside and too lazy to bring their own bottles....

It’s gonna be wild…

I’m looking for sunscreen recommendations - specifically for outdoor activities (hiking, etc), but if you’ve got everyday sunscreen recs, I’ll take those too. I generally prefer mineral sunscreens and I’m in the US, but feel free to share whatever sunscreens you like and hopefully others will benefit also....

keep is seriouse if you can and it can really be about anything just have the advice be good if you so do.

as a reddit refugee i mostly use lemmy, but sometimes i go back by a lack of alternative to some subreddit, which one you feel there is a need ?...

I always used to follow the war on Reddit but I am trying to stay away as much as possible. So how can I follow it without Reddit or Twitter? Does anybody have a good alternative? Thanks in advance....

I've been wanting to check out Mastodon and a good app helps me be more engaged. My issue is that there are lots of interesting apps so I don't which one to pick! Which one do you like and why?...

No I will not provide any details onto why I bet my roommate to do this. Please don’t ask me because I will not answer.

Since Google Domains is shutting down, I am looking for a new place to transfer my domains. What are others using for domain registration?

Idk if “little experience” means something in English, but what I meant is non-life changing/threatening. Things that would otherwise go unnoticed....

One I've tried is cucumber with tomato sauce. It didn't taste so bad.

A stranger once shared food with me and talked me down from fear when a snow squall stranded us at the peak of a hike. I think often about this person’s willingness to help and how it completely transformed that experience.

Since coming to lemmy I will browse all vs local and top by day. There is a solid amount of AI generated porn that has many votes in a 24 hour period....

it seems pretty nice so far, though there isnt ios version right now...

My city redesign our downtown roads to have a whole bunch of horrible one ways in the 50s, and we are FINALLY changing back to how it was while making improvements like bike lanes. The first attempt at bike lanes with the current layout was horrible, basically death traps everywhere... Hoping for something better this time, lol....

I have asked this question to countless people (mostly in hair salons) as an alternative to small talk, and it always yields interesting results....
