Seems like a good portion of the activity in the communities is reddit oriented. If the goal is leaving/hurting reddit, it seems we should be continuing on like it doesn’t exist, instead of continuing to drive interest to the site. Thoughts?
Hi everyone! I’m in my late 20s and I’ve been reminiscing on my young adult life and what I like/don’t like. One point that has been coming up for me is close, vulnerable friendships. I used to have a few friends who I was very close to a few years ago, who I could talk to about deep life stuff, big emotions, vulnerable...
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…...

I’ve been on reddit for a long, long time and i’ve seen all the changes that have happened in the past decade. I spent a lot of time on Reddit, and have seen the slow infestation of bots, karma whores, and guerilla marketing disguised as posts....
When I first found out it was an interesting concept that I was pretty neutral on but the more I engage/lurk with the community the more I enjoy it....
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....
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. So now I just use Busuu for grammar...
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:...

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....
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.
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....

welcome to the weekly how’s your week going thread...
The original post I made about this is here....
This just appeared on my screen when visiting YouTube. Yes, I use Ublock Origin. However, what is all of this about? Will I be banned from YouTube if I don’t comply?
I tried googling it but I couldn’t find anything (might’ve searched for it wrong). does that mean the comity needs to approve it?
Ideally about real stories! I’m enjoying Monsters Among Us a lot. That and Spooked.

As the title says, I'm getting pretty overwhelmed by a growing list of tasks I have to do. Laundry is piling up, I still need to unpack my car from a roadtrip last weekend, and an issue I've been working at work has been dragging on for too long....
doesn't have to be anything special. can be online or in real life....
