Dude was like a pillar of the lemmy community and I believe a mod as well. I haven't seen him in weeks. Hopefully he's doing ok.

!ask@lemm.ee

Why? To try a "third way" between !asklemmy@lemmy.world and !asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Those kind of communities tend to get quite popular anyway, as they're quite generic. Its scope is also broader than !casualconversation@lemm.ee

I also feel like new comers are probably used to a higher rhythm of content, do maybe that could be a community that could help with that to ensure that Lemmy can actually become a Reddit alternative for them

I have one after the baby goes to bed but maybe because I don't have it until 9pm or so I feel exhausted the next day...

Edit It’s bourbon but I’m counting standard US drinks.

Without fail the class would end a few minutes early. As soon as I started making the sounds it was like dominoes. Ten minutes left in the lecture but everyone has all their stuff put away and are putting their coats on. I think of this often. May this knowledge set you free a few minutes early.

Transitioning from Reddit (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Been transitioning from Reddit, and Lemmy is such a godsend.

No more subreddit hoarding and mod abuse (mostly). The decentralization makes it nearly impossible to exploit and abuse.

I finally get to create a community that isn't a bunch of subreddits controlled by the same mod network. Working hard to build it up from scratch (and unapologetically taking inspiration from the good posts in each subreddit).

Is there a convenient way to find communities related to the subreddits I'm subscribed to, without manually searching for them? Looking for some kind of smart pseudo-import/export feature.

I haven't used a clock in years that I need to manually reset. Older people don't seem to realize clocks on phones and other devices reset automatically.

What is a sub/community that you wish existed (actively) on Lemmy?

Maybe there are others like you and we can actually get it running, or maybe to already exists but you just don't know!

I posted a few weeks ago about how I didn't feel like quitting reddit just yet. and, honestly, I still have a hard time not opening my phone every five minutes to check it.

but I decided to quit because I realized how much of a negative echo chamber it was. I couldn't even mute certain words on the reddit app so I had to keep seeing the same shit over and over again in the popular feed.

it'll be a long road moving from one platform to another, but I'm pretty satisfied not being strangled by reddit's overwhelming snark and negativity.

dunno if anyone here feels a similar way, but felt like sharing my thoughts.

I've been out of my apartment for a couple of months while it's under renovation, and basically living out of a suitcase in a furnished apartment.

Now I'm moving back in and need to unpack all my furniture, etc. It just feels like so much stuff that I don't even remember having!

How do you deal with that in your own lives?
