I got tired of seeing trump face everywhere and a kind user by the name of SubArcticTundra shared his keyword based block list as images. I wrote them down and am sharing them with anyone else that is tired of constantly seeing USA politics on his feed....
What is your email used for when signing up to Lemmy? Is it just for password reset?

I’m seeing strange behavior when I click on a post, then click the “back button” in my browser. Sometimes if I’m on the “subscribed” tab, click on an article, then press back, it seems to show me “all” or “local” posts. Sometimes it shows me a different list if I’m on the “all” tab, click on a post,...
Back in the ole Reddit days of ereyestermonth I had a habit of closing my reddit app of choice on my phone, and then as a reflex immediately open that same app back up....
I partially know the answer to this question…You cannot host videos directly on Lemmy, but that is understandable, video hosting is pretty expensive, but Lemmy also doesn’t support video embeds(videos don’t play within Lemmy), which means that you will have to open the link in a new tab/window to watch it. Which is pretty...
Some users want to horny post and some want to filter it out. It would resolve the conflict.
I find myself accidentally leaving Lemmy. The icon marking an outbound link isn’t very noticeable depending on the image it loads behind it and the amount of user brain activity (for me it’s extraordinarily low when scrolling).
It struck me recently that as the quality of content on the internet has arguably gone to shit, in the form of increasingly frequent ads plastered everywhere, paywalls or superficial/dumb blog posts or mainstream media articles, the basic idea of a link aggregator platform can naturally lose its quality, or struggle to maintain...
I think it’s one feature missing from all the text-based websites. I do not watch videos at all. I use text-based media because I cannot interact with else than text and images. It would further improve the speed at which you load the website and improve content quality for all the other people who do not interact with video...
I can load an entire website with videos and then load videos in 720p, but I cannot load my inbox with one notification. It should be a miniscule amount of data. I was wondering how the data downloads are being parted. Unread and All seem to be separate based on the loading icon, but are they also separate in regards to...
Hi,...
There are a couple of instances that are clearly misaligned with my values, but they’re very active, so a lot of the communities keep popping up in my feed. I’ve been blocking the communities, but it would be pretty cool if I could just block the entire instance. I know an instance can defederate from another instance. Is...
Is this accurate? I just deleted my comment and none of the child comments were visible anymore
Why does “most comments” not feature a time frame?...
There are a couple of browser extensions for the other place that show you what subreddits a given URL are posted to. If you’re looking for discussion about a current link/page/site, it’s very handy. Also, if you’re submitting links, it’s helpful to show where a given link has already been submitted and when....
I may have bumped into a bug while testing comment functionality....
The number of Lemmy instances are growing and the list on join-lemmy is getting bigger and bigger. There are too many instances on the page and it is hard for new user to find which instance is suitable for them....
Note: This post now archived and as such no longer works...
Hi, thanks for taking the time to read this....
AutoMod for obvious reasons (removing spam, slurs, etc.), and controversial sort to see the spiciest comments in that thread.
I recently encountered a situation where I tried to downvote a post from an instance that didn’t seem to have downvotes enabled. However, my vote didn’t affect the score, which made me question why the downvote button was even displayed in the first place. It felt like it was just baiting me into thinking I could downvote....

I used to use the instances view in Liftoff for this, since that client has a really handy “View this on another instance” feature for both communities and posts, but lately that view as well as Liftoff in general has had some pretty serious stability issues for me, so here’s the question:...
Hello. I’m considering hosting a 1-person instance for my personal use. I’m trying to run on my own hardware, and I have used *nix for quite a long time and maintaining it wouldn’t be much of a problem. However, I’m not quite sure what kind of hardware should I run it on....
