I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don’t look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I’d go there and enjoy the drama. Occasionally there will be questions that only reddit has the answer to so I have to reluctantly use it. I...
Other than your carrier give it for free or cheap, I don’t really see the reason why should you buy new phone. I’ve been using Redmi Note 9 for past 3 years and recently got my had on Poco F5. I don’t see the point of my ‘upgrade’. I sold it and come back to my Note 9. Gaming? Most of them are p2w or microtransaction...
I was recently talking to some friends about Lemmy and the whole Fediverse idea, as it seemed like a really cool part of the Internet. As I was talking about it, though, I realized how unusually friendly this whole place is, and I joked that I “surprisingly haven’t found any bigotry.”...
I am wondering what kind of career moves I have available to me because I am over the bullshit of desktop support. I have been brushing up on my Linux skills, learning docker, and doing a whole bunch of networking-related things. At this point, I am 46 years old. Would it benefit me to go back to school to learn a skill to help...
@nutomic why was @vaxedpeopledie site wide banned for posting generic vaccine news articles then? You said there was no anti vaccine policy at Lemmy. Look at that account it broke no rules. If people get banned for following the rules admins make why should anyone trust this platform?...
Sometimes when I look around in communities hosted on instances with downvotes disabled, there’s still the occasional comment with a negative score. Does it only count downvotes from people on your instance, or is there some other magic going on?
I added a search option to a community’s sidebar - this will be helpful to find past answers but also to check and see if someone has already asked that question recently....
Be honest, do you still use reddit?
I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don’t look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I’d go there and enjoy the drama.

What's the point of buying new phones every years?
Other than your carrier give it for free or cheap, I don’t really see the reason why should you buy new phone. I’ve been using Redmi Note 9 for past 3 years and recently got my had on Poco F5.

Have you had any bad experiences with people on Lemmy?
I was recently talking to some friends about Lemmy and the whole Fediverse idea, as it seemed like a really cool part of the Internet. As I was talking about it, though, I realized how unusually friendly this whole place is, and I joked that I “surprisingly haven’t found any bigotry.”...
What can a senior desktop support tech do who is burned out?
I am wondering what kind of career moves I have available to me because I am over the bullshit of desktop support.

Anyone else missing posts in smaller Lemmy communities because they are overshadowed by the popular ones?
I tend to miss posts in smaller communities, no matter what sorting options I use when I display the “Subscribed” feed on the frontpage....
If people using Reddit are called Redditors, then what do we call people who use Lemmy?
Lemmyers? Lemmurs?...

Okay, how do I block all this meme stuff?
Just as the title says. Dunno why memes are of interest now (out of the loop) but it’s driving me nuts
What are the best fediverse alternatives to youtube?
What are the best fediverse alternatives to youtube? and what makes them so good, what are the rules? are they all open source?...
nutomic said it was OK to post opinions that are not pro vax (lemmy.ml)
@nutomic why was @vaxedpeopledie site wide banned for posting generic vaccine news articles then? You said there was no anti vaccine policy at Lemmy. Look at that account it broke no rules. If people get banned for following the rules admins make why should anyone trust this platform?...

How do downvotes on instances with downvotes disabled work?
Sometimes when I look around in communities hosted on instances with downvotes disabled, there’s still the occasional comment with a negative score. Does it only count downvotes from people on your instance, or is there some other magic going on?
Locked out of main account. 2 factor authentication not working.
Sorry if this isn’t the correct place to report this I will delete and move it to correct place if provided....
