Here I was in my own little bubble appearently, thinking people were using kagi.com to search now that it exists, but a comment I got made me realize that’s probably not the case…...

Hi everyone, first post on here. This will be a bit of a ramble, sorry in advance....

I really like how products like chatgpt can make life easier and more efficient, especially for programmers. However im also kind of afraid of these projects centralised nature. Do you think there is a way to avoid the risks of smaller companies and individuals being reliant on a couple of huge companies for writing code, etc....

hello! this is just a thing i’d like to personally note. it speaks for myself, and where it does not expresses sentiments we’ve already placed somewhere else. this is not a moderator document or anything, and it will not be stickied....

Out of curiosity before midnight, I’ve been lurking in incognito to see what subreddits appear and I saw WhitePeopleTwitter has a long post and is choosing to stay open....

First, I am here because I did not go through with my plans to end my own life so many years ago at the age of 13....

Something just struck me today when scrolling Lemmy, something that sticks out thanks to the federated aspects....

Hello everyone! I’m learning German and I’m trying to make sure my language learning habits are the best they can be. I was using Duolingo and Busuu, but that was taking a lot of time away from immersion/fun and what I learned in one app I often learned in the other, so it felt redundant.

Just a working list - feel free to add to it. I realize that some of these might already exist, and I just missed them. Here’s what I’ve got so far:...

I’ve never been sentimental about a social media site but it’s sad for me to see reddit so clearly killing itself. Pushshift is already banned and Apollo is soon to follow. Reddit will either pivot fully to a mainstream audience or die out. It’s just sad for me to see it doing it to itself.

Like most other people here, I originally came here from reddit. Ive been having a blast so far, and I much prefer the forum-style of this. After about a week of using Lemmy I realized there was something intrinsic to reddit that Lemmy doesnt have. And I wont miss it. Too many people on reddit were way too horny. I was really...

I got diagnosed with a fragrance allergy recently. I break out in hives on my face. My doctor gave me back my allergy results and told me I had to cut all scented things out, from cleaners, to soaps, to shampoos, detergents, whole nine yards. I was crushed at first, because I liked my scented soaps and dryer sheets....

And saw a bunch of posts about the third party apps closing down, and lots of negativity about that whole fiasco....

I’ve always been concerned about privacy, and I’m ignorant of how the fediverse works at a low level....

For me it’s been communities like /r/buildapc, /r/buildapcforme, /r/buildapcsales, /r/gamedeals, and /r/consoledeals have been useful throughout the years.

this is usually an interesting discussion to have, and there are a lot of interesting questions to ask in this field–so let’s ask and talk about a few. feel free to answer as many as you want, or ask your own of people in the comments. here are two groups of three that i think are good to start:...
