While I exclusively use Linux at home and I recommend it to everyone especially on desktop, they mentioned battery life and from my experience that isn’t its strong suit.
I have a small dumb TV I got fairly recently from Best Buy. It’s their store brand and has no smart features. Only 720p but they had some 1080p ones too. They’re nothing special but very cheap. Mine was an open box and I got it for maybe 40 or 50 dollars.
In Northern California my AC is off as much as I can help it. When it’s on it’s set at 82. Energy bill is still at least $250 for my one bedroom apartment…
I really like lemmy. A lot of people with similar interests as me here.
Seeing a lot of complaints about controversial communities, but I for one actually like them. I like the entertainment value of the drama, arguments, and trolling.
I am sick of people removed about these instances. If you don’t like their content then join an instance that is defederated from them. It’s that simple.
I don’t understand why the button couldn’t have remained in the middle of the screen. It makes sense in the middle, being such an important button. It’s easy to reach no matter which hand you use to hold your phone. It’s the norm and people are used to it.
I refuse to send anything except .zip to basically anyone I know. Because if it was anything else they’d be confused. With the things I’m sending on a regular basis, small images and documents, the difference in performance between archive formats doesn’t really matter anyway.
I hadn’t even started middle school yet when Digg was at its peak. I’ve never even visited the site before. Wasn’t a regular reddit user until 2014 or so.
For me it’s first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they’re open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that’s stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.
Fact is, the Lemmy ecosystem needs money to handle the growing server reqirements as more people migrate as well as the development cost of new features (I know Lemmy is OSS but the devs should still get some compensation for their effort)....
Yes that gave a lot of people a lot of reddit coins, or whatever it is called, used to buy awards. But their reddit gold shold have expired a long time ago.
I want to comment more but I often don’t have much to say. I’ve made it a goal to comment more though, because I want to see this platform succeed.
I love the enthusiasm in this thread but if we the mass migration of reddit users that I am hoping for, the toxicity and annoying reddit behaviors are probably coming along with them. I am hopeful that this place will at least stay much more open and free.

What temperature do you keep your thermostat at?
Title. We keep ours at 75F, parents do 77F, and in laws 68F. It made me curious what everyone else keeps theirs at?
Reddit users who switched to Lemmy, what is the most annoying thing you have seen about Lemmy users?

"Sponsored recommendations": I pay for Spotify Premium, and yet somehow I'm still the product? (lemmy.one)
I opened Spotify this morning to be greeted by a modal popup with a “sponsored recommendation”....
What's your favorite Linux Desktop software?
For me, it’s hands down Flameshot. The best screenshot tool in the world - I’ve got it hooked up to my PrtScrn key for super easy screenshots....
Without using pronouns (me, he, she, it, etc) or articles (a, an, the), how did you come up with your user name?
Essentially, I want us to sound like cavemen....

How many of you were using Digg during its prime?
What are some game genres / styles you like that aren't being made anymore, or are being mde but not very often?

they're wiping it out fellas. (lemmy.world)
How much "data" do you personally have?
Data as in information (photos, contacts, messages, etc…), not your mobile internet allowance....
How would you feel about awards on lemmy?

Is anybody else more active here then they were on Reddit?
When I was on Reddit I felt like my opinion didn’t matter. But here it just feels more open and free.
