Hello!...

I decided to take a peek at Reddit to see what kind of activity is happening, a good handful of the subreddits I am subscribed to are still super active with posts and commenters....

First of all, let me say that while the admins can do what they want, I think it’s pretty unfortunate that beehaw is defederating from .world and shitjustworks. I don’t want to see the fediverse fracture, I want it to encourage conversation with others....

people posting here are going out of their way to post – and it feels like every thought has more weight or sanctity or meaning when it’s being posted here, at the dawn of a new era and the fall of an old....

Hey y’all, new and dumb as bricks, I’m not quite sure how to use this app to find new communities, I’m specifically looking for one that can give me fit advice for my new steel toe shoes which are killing my feet, any ideas? Sorry if this is the wrong places to post this

In dark mode, when viewing the voting buttons, could we get higher-contrast coloring when a post is voted on? The upvote coloring is nearly impossible for me to distinguish from the default un-voted color (light blue vs. grey). I’m using the darkly theme, but darkly red has the same challenge. Using browser extensions to...

Hey there lemmings!...

Ok I hope I won’t come off as an ass here. I’m not always the most eloquent....

As we all try to settle into this new community just a friendly reminder to upvote and support your fellow community members! The only way new content will get to the front page is if people upvote it. AND it helps encourage people to submit more content....

… go through your ‘top posts’, copy & paste the text into a doc, post it here, then delete it. Let reddit’s loss be lemmy’s gain!

Someone created the ChronicPain community and then abandoned it. I have messaged this person with no response. They haven’t posted, commented, or anything since they made it....

If the performance weakness continues for a week or two, the agency would start recommending decreasing spend with Reddit or directing it to other platforms....

It’s been an amazing few days reading so many posts without a shred of toxicity in them. I’m sure it won’t always be a cake walk, but for the last couple of days I just feel… healthier mentally.

Okay, it’s actually 18955 at the time of this post. I’m looking at lemmy.fediverse.observer/list and lemmy.world has already passed beehaw.org by a large margin for second place....

Maybe this is unpopular but I’m getting tired of opening lemmy and having to scroll past the same post that I have viewed already, half of the posts on the front page are 2 or 3 days old.

Yeah, sorry about the run-on sentence title, but I hope you get what I’m saying

Starting last night, about a thousand subreddits have gone private. We do anticipate many of them will come back by Wednesday, as many have said as much. While we knew this was coming, it is a challenge nevertheless and we have our work cut out for us. A number of Snoos have been working around the clock, adapting to...

Apparently there’s an issue with some instances banning users for criticizing authoritarian governments. Is lemmy.world a safe place to criticize governments?

For me, it’s a few things....

Made custom icon for Jerboa because it didn’t fit well with my homescreen....
