That was what persuaded me to delete as well. I was supporting the mods in /r/gis and mentioned that they should strike longer, and some user called me "fucking stupid," and mentioned some bs about how the subreddit is important because people find answers there via google.

So I edited every single one of my 11 years of comments to some text pointing people to Lemmy, and nuked my account. Haven't missed it since.

I sincerely hope that toxicity doesn't find its way here.

Man! This is the first I head about the lead dev of Mlem leaving. I hope the project doesn't get abandoned.

I just hope we don't end up calling them "sublemmys" and whatnot, like what I keep seeing suggested. Let's just make a clean break with reddit and start something new and better.

Thank you @ernest! Please consider setting up a Patreon, or similar, account so I can donate monthly. I've bought you a few coffees but I'd like it to be automatic.

The tankie thing keeps pushing me away from lemmy, but lemmy seems to be the only software getting clients at the moment. So I'm torn. I want an iOS client badly, but I don't want to support tankies.

I suppose I shouldn't sell out for a nice app though.

That's exactly what they'll say.

I loved Project Hail Mary! Another good one is Recursion by Blake Crouch.

There are a lot of subs on that site that have apparently migrated but there are zero posts here.

Can you post a screenshot or photo of your hamclock setup? There's a lot but I think I've got it figured out.

I know there are 288 microblogs, but that's not what I expect when looking in a magazine.

Ham radio. It's a lot of fun and has something for everyone. I like the outdoors, so I took my portable gear to a park and operated Parks on the Air today. There are all kinds of digital modes for people who love computers, there's morse code, there's using kites to hoist your antenna, hot air balloons, talking with the space station, etc. All kinds of stuff. If you're the least bit nerdy, it likely has something for you.

Thank you so much for this well written text!

@ThaijsClan I changed about 4500 comments to an edited one pointing users to lemmy and kbin, along with instructions on how to choose an instance. Hopefully it'll direct at least a couple people here.

I created the powerlifting magazine over on lemmy and have been posting into the void there lol. Hopefully some people move over and use it. Otherwise it feels like I'm just using it as a personal blog or something.

That's why I nuked all my posts and edited every one of my comments to point to kbin / lemmy before deleting my account. They may revert my changes, but I at least wanted to try to prevent them from benefiting from me in any way.

Right. I wasn’t entirely sure if it was supposed to work on Kbin or not. Hopefully one of these days we’ll have a client!

Should it work with Kbin? I get a JSON parse error.

Walford was so robbed on that last deadlift

Yes! I started competing in a sport in my late twenties and am deep into it now (I'm 36), and have never felt better.

I was thinking that too, but it has been this way for a couple days. I figure it would have caught up by now.

Yeah I had to be really sneaking navigating there and blocking it so my wife didn't see and ask questions, lol.

So I've gone to https://kbin.social/d/lemmynsfw.com, which pulled up that instance, but how do I then block that instance?

Can that be done by users account level or does ernest have to do it for the entire instance?

It did. It would be a pretty easy job and a major step down from my last job, but that's what I'm looking for since I'm about to start a grad school program. We'll see what they think.

I'm telling myself that the pre-anxiety is always way worse than it should be. The interview itself is never that bad.

It's in 4 minutes, so I don't have much longer to feel this way!

This isn't happening though. I am subscribed to a few communities from lemmy.ml that definitely have posts, and there are other subscribers from kbin, but no posts show when viewing from kbin. It has been like that for a couple days. Check these out, for example:

https://lemmy.ml/c/powerlifting

https://kbin.social/m/powerlifting@lemmy.ml

Do you mean mlem? That’s the TestFlight app I have.

Wasn’t he a mod of /r/jailbait?

I’m sure it relies on users using the NSFW tag on their posts, which can be unreliable. I’d be ok with an option to remove the random section altogether.

Usually pretty well. I go to sleep at the same time every night, and wake up at the same time daily. Usually wake up 1-2 times at night but am able to fall asleep within a few minutes.

If I've had too many drinks, occasionally I'll wake up between 1-3 AM and be up for the day. I hate those days.

I mean physical mail, lol. You go out to your mailbox and have a handful of crap that you have to throw away.

Yes, at least in the US, we get a ton of ads via mail (post). It's a huge pain. I use iOS and I don't think there are any Instagram alternative apps.

I'm experiencing the same with the top right search. I'm assuming something is broken but I wanted to bring it up just in case.

Edit: top right search is now working, but the communities still aren't being found.

It has become that way in the US.

So the backend is coded in Rust? I've been learning the language but haven't actually used it outside of tutorials yet. I'm experienced in C++ and know how to program so I may look into it while I'm unemployed.

My pihole helps quite a bit, but some still sneak in. I had to use a VPN to get a cheap rate for Youtube premium which helps a ton. Instagram ads and mail ads are unavoidable still.

I am so sick of ads being everywhere. It's such a mental load.
