What’s your preferred app for the text-to-speech function?

Eating M&Ms by color - it has absolutely no purpose and they’re bad for me, but oh so satisfying.

@OriginalThinker, I’m responding to your DM here.

We don’t move posts to the correct community because Lemmy doesn’t have that option - and I’d rather you got to choose where your content lands.

As for why we don’t reach out and tell people - this is a volunteer job on a big community. We rely on the mod log and allow this kind of meta post to stay up for transparency and discussion. Otherwise, we focus on following the rules laid out so that this community can stay within its intended scope. This is a community for open questions and discussion - not support.

I’m sorry you don’t feel welcomed - that’s tough. However, communities come with their own rules and mods will make sure they’re enforced. I’d recommend checking those rules carefully before posting in the future as that will help the reception of your post.

I access Lemmy through the browser all the time. The experience is solid and consistent across devices and I need access to both mod and (occasionally) admin tools.

That may actually be the Dutch or maybe Swedish spelling. They’re all so close but slightly different that I hope auto-correct deals with it.

How the fuck can I kill 20 hours?

My 13 hour flight just got delayed 7 hours, I’m stuck at my second airport, and I dont think I’m gonna make it. I have some movies and audio books on my phone, but really only anticipated having to burn the flight time via napping and some media, not 7 hours leading up to it, and I’m pretty sure I’m gonna mentally burn...

We’ve had plenty of variations on this topic recently. Removing per rule #4.

To all the people who've given those few downvotes everywhere (no shame), what's the deal?

So many posts and comments end up with just a few downvotes, compared at least to the number of upvotes. The only time downvotes get relatively large is when there’s a contentious issue or outright bad behaviour. Otherwise, there’s very often just a few downvotes....

hsl,

Removing as it’s not an open question and because we have lots of discussions around downvoting.

Loved this series growing up - definitely formative and probably part of my gateway into fantasy. On this vein, I can also recommend the Song of the Lioness by Tamara Pierce.

I haven’t read the new book that you’ve mentioned but will check it out!

hsl,
@hsl@wayfarershaven.eu avatar

I read the ebook because I wanted to know what happened. It was great and now I’m seriously considering reading it again when the audio book comes out because they did such a good job.

I’ve just finished cleaning up my Calibre library and switched to the Story Graph - I really like the filters for figuring out what to read next.

Currently reading The Lefthanded Booksellers of London by Garth Nix. I’ve been trying to avoid YA content but picked this up as a palette refresh. So far, I’m enjoying the world-building and the snappy dialogue.

I just blew through the Gild series by Raven Kennedy - it was a random Story Graph recommendation but apparently it’s huge on Booktok. I generally enjoyed it, particularly the world-building and character development. The fourth book dragged as there’s a lot of set up for the final book (to be published) in the series.

And of course, Dungeon Crawler Carl, book 6! It’s getting very complex but the core elements that drew me to it are still there. How in the world is this going to end?

The third book puts such a beautiful cherry atop the whole series

Phew! I just have the third book left but I’m both looking forward to and dreading it.

Late 30s, learned to drive in NL and now live in SE. Initially learned about transmissions by running around on four wheelers. I drive a manual car every day. There’s a lot of fun and connection to driving manual, though I see the ease and efficiency of the automatic transmission as well as the general trend.

Interesting topic but missing a clear, open question for discussion. Removing per rule #1.

How do you handle being upset about something online?

like either a dumbass posting stupid shit, unfair bans, idiotic arguments, etc etc. i feel so incredibly stupid letting it affect me at all, but then also there’s real feelings mixed in there because it’s a real argument i give a shit about to some degree. so it’s this odd double crossing where i know it’s stupid but i...

Walk away and take a breath.

Also, will this really matter to me:

  • Tomorrow?
  • In a week?
  • In a month?
  • In a year?

That helps to put challenging situations into perspective.

Feel free to make a new topic for your third question.

Is there anything good in Hexbear?

The few conversations I’ve had there have been unproductive and inflammatory. While even in other instances when I’ve said something someone disagreed with they would at least support their statement. Also no one would tell me why the “Confused Unga Bunga” meme is racist but they keep accusing me of it. I’m all for...

That looks like the error that shows up when the community hasn’t synced with the instance yet, usually when you’re the first to subscribe to it. My guess is that the removed post wasn’t synced to your instance before it was removed, so your instance doesn’t have a local copy to show you. You could probably get around this by navigating directly to this community and then checking the home instance’s mod log.

Here’s a direct link to test it out: lemmy.ml/modlog/8

Note: I’m guessing as I don’t have access to server logs to confirm.

We could - but we’re still getting comments here. Why not continue to use this thread and sort by new?

Also - this topic doesn’t even really belong in Asklemmy per the rules. If anything, I’m more inclined to unpin it and return to dealing with posts as needed.
