I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.

Yes I know, a few months ago a post with the exact same title was shared […]

I think reposting after 7+ months is more than ok regardless :)

otter,

Worse than spam, spam at least has a point to it.

Ehh, it’s very clearly labeled for what the purpose is and it’s also easy to block (if someone is using the NEW feed and is affected by the volume of posts).

Some people want the functionality of the bot and a big part of the Fediverse is to bring control of a platform back to the user. Lemmit is providing that functionality the right way

otter,

Have there been many posts in the past month? I only see one 3 weeks ago, not sure if it’s a federation issue

otter,

Another great thing about Lemmy is that people can choose what they want to see instead of a platform deciding for them.

If you don’t like the bots, block them. If someone wants the bots, they can subscribe to the communities.

It’s really only a problem when someone is making too many separate bots that it gets hard to block all of them

otter,

Ohh

I’d probably remove it but it’s pretty borderline

otter,

People have said that the new scaled sort coming with Lemmy v0.19 should help with that

Anyone else feels like they want to destroy their old sim and never give their contact to anyone ever again?

If signal gets the new username feature, this just might be what i do, so fricking tired of people just blindly giving random apps and websites their contact permissions and they get my contact as well, and there’s nothing i can do about it

otter,

Oh I didn’t realize that was you. Hopefully they knock it off soon 😄

otter,

This might be fun, but I feel like my recommendations go in circles

It might be a game to just escape the circle

My forearms are is going to be so strong

Any day now we’re going to see an advertisement where someone drinks water, dry instant noodles, and coins and walks to the MRI room (before being stopped to talk about some self cooking option)

Like this classic KD ad youtube.com/watch?v=iEN2n9bGijI

Or this

otter,

Welcome!

We actually spun up a new community for new people, feel free to drop by with any questions or thoughts :)

otter,

I dislike a lot of their decision making, and I avoid Google Chrome because of repeated shenanigans.

I use Google docs, Gmail, google photos, etc. because it just works for me with school and work. I might switch to something for photos, but I don’t hate google. Just wish they’d be better

otter,

A key one is batteries

Dell, and other brands, sometimes have it so the device will reject all third party batteries. It has to be one made by Dell.

Meanwhile they stop selling the battery for older devices, which is usually when you need one of those batteries.

otter,

That’s not what they asked though, they’re already using Firefox and they don’t intend to drop it

otter,

I assumed that the people over in the DataHoarder communities had archives running this whole time. There’s probably data out there somewhere, it’s a matter of getting it into a usable hosted state

otter,

Garbage answer:

Garbage collection and general management. It’s nice that we don’t dump our waste outside our homes anymore.

otter,

Haven’t thought about secretory vesicles in a while, and this is a pretty unique context for them lmao

otter,

This isn’t really world news, it’s not even important tech news

Just two random startups competing over funding?

otter,

Whoever takes it on should also add in some rules. A number of the posts (while interesting) are not relevant to the community
