Thanks! I’ll try converting the file format and see if that’ll work. I successfully uploaded a JPEG last night, so maybe it just doesn’t like PNG files anymore 🤷‍♂️

There seems to be an issue with uploading large images. I don’t know if anyone else has noticed it but I’m getting the error when trying to upload wallpapers to /c/wallpapers. I think it might be related to file size? Or maybe file format? It’s a 13MB .png file. I don’t remember running into issues with the old version when posting similar content.

TheWaterGod, to asklemmy in Does anyone else resent the links to Reddit?
@TheWaterGod@lemmy.ca avatar

Not the OP, but I’ve got the following bots blocked and it massively improved my Lemmy experience.

I’ve seen that option but unfortunately not every NSFW post is NSFW because of nudity. Like some of the post in the Ukraine community are marked NSFW for war reasons.

This is the thing I’m happiest to see and I hope it helps Lemmy grow more. Being able to block the NSFW/porn instances is such a quality-of-life improvement. I’ve got nothing against porn, but it’s a bad look if anyone can see your screen and every third post is nudity (even if it’s blurred).

Good news then, because there’s a second half to the story!

TheWaterGod, to gardening in Periwinkle Question
@TheWaterGod@lemmy.ca avatar

It’s probably not the answer you’re looking for, but depending where you live, periwinkle is considered an invasive species and it’s generally recommended to plant something else.

OfficialPartner is another one. I had them and softwaresales posting spam in one of my communities.

TheWaterGod, to houseplants in Pothos N'Joy
@TheWaterGod@lemmy.ca avatar

I always heard that pearls/jade and n’joy were slower growing varieties of the original marble queen. I found that mine started to really take off after I pruned it back and stuck a couple of fertilizer sticks in the pot. I’ve also got a marble and I gotta say, it’s been keeping up with it growth-wise lately haha

In my opinion, that’s way better dude.

@TheWaterGod@lemmy.ca avatar

100% agree. I really enjoy the app and Kuro has done amazing work, but this logo misses the mark tbh. I’m definitely no graphics designer (just someone who knows enough to make shitty memes), but the alignment is all over the place with this logo.

TheWaterGod, to houseplants in My landlord wants my potted plant gone :(
@TheWaterGod@lemmy.ca avatar

Looking at the pot, that’s legitimately the first idea I had if OP wants to go the malicious compliance route. I’d be tempted to build a table around the plant pot. Something like this (but for outdoors):

TheWaterGod, to houseplants in String of Turtles 🐢
@TheWaterGod@lemmy.ca avatar

I struggled with this one even before I dropped it, so I feel your pain. Through some trial and error, I found that this guy likes lots of light and little water.

Light-wise, he’s in a east facing window that gets a ton of morning/early afternoon sun. Used to be in a spot that got direct sun but I had to move things around recently and it’s less direct now (so hopefully I haven’t jinxed it lol)

For watering, I know a lot of people say to do the “taco test” (i.e. fold the leaves gently and if they fold like a taco, then it’s time to water) but I found that was waiting too long between waterings. I just go on the weight of the pot now. I still wait until the soil is dry all the way through but not long enough that the leaves “taco”. I also feel like a shallow pot is super important. The grey cache pot is tall to allow hanging but the pot inside is only 2 inches deep (it’s a custom job, I cut a nursery pot in half). I’ve also found that it responds best to bottom watering because the water just kind of runs through if I go from the top.

TheWaterGod, to gardening in Saw a goldfinch in my bee balms.
@TheWaterGod@lemmy.ca avatar

It’s a great pollinator friendly plant and easy to grow (it just needs a lot of sunlight). I’ve been adding it as a filler in-between some of my shrubs and I’m getting bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds! Fantastic little plant.
