I came across a video on Youtube discussing it (there are several), and Kowloon Walled City is just endlessly fascinating. A few notable videos I found on the subject were:...
According to the second video I linked, a resident of Kowloon spent the better part of six years mapping out the city. Here’s the timestamp: youtu.be/PcSBOUpgngM?t=794
I commonly browse all by new, and I block users who crosspost any given article to more than one other community. To me it’s almost always a sign that they actually don’t care about the topic or contents, but instead their own post count and user recognition.
Am I on your blocklist? I’ve done some cross posting of my own content. Things have settled down now, but I know for awhile there it wasn’t really clear which communities were going to take off.
Because of the currently small size of Lemmy, I tend to see the same posts over and again. Is it possible to add mark as read button so that I don’t have to click into and out of posts that I don’t want to see anymore?
I am looking to make some last minute purchases to play with one or more friends, and I have poked around Steam’s Co-Op page. I’m curious what new co-op games everyone on Lemmy is playing....

They’ve unfortunately been doing scummy things for a very long time as well. Over a decade ago I banked with them and my account went a few dollars negative. They charged eight dollars a day every day for like a month and a half and refused to reverse it so I just let it go to collections.
For all the chocolate lovers out there, careful because effectively all dark chocolates have lead and cadmium in them. Lead is especially dangerous and some brands have alarmingly high amounts.
Is there a way in kbin to search specific magazines when looking for information? Looks like you can set specific communities or if its a post or comment using Lemmy, but the search on kbin is just a single text field.
I just checked, and Beehaw has defederated with 388 instances. Either the fediverse is overrun with nazis, or you’re making a massive generalization and Beehaw is being ridiculous.
I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it's because I am limited to using the desktop and can't aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself...
Ah I see. I’ve never heard the term PWA, but yeah I did that as well for lemmyworld on iOS. My one complaint is there doesn’t seem to be a way to refresh the “app”
Why YSK: Searching topcs on reddit was simple matter of entering desired term and prepending or appending keyword reddit. With lemmy’s decentralised structure finding particular topic without knowing to which, or rather if even there is community dealing with such topic(s) can be a headache inducing hurdle. So appending...
YSK: This doesn’t work in DuckDuckGo because I just independently had the idea to try this a few days ago and returned no results. I didn’t think to try on Google. I believe DuckDuckGo is running on Microsoft Bing so it likely doesn’t work there either
Edit: It seems like there’s enough people that would prefer this didn’t happen for some pretty good reasons. For that reason, I’m not going to move forward with this idea....
Have you been paying attention to Reddit content for the past I don’t even know how many years? It’s all TikTok and twitter reposts, and before that it was 9gag and 4chan reposts. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what op is asking if the past is anything to go off of
I mean the beauty of the fediverse is you can have your cake and eat it too in this scenario. If someone wants to spin up an instance that’s just reposts that duplicate communities elsewhere, you could selectively subscribe to both or only the one without reposts.
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....

Mark as read feature?
