Just had one single person go through my entire profile and downvote every comment and post except for those that I assume they're de-federated from. And now, thanks to this nifty little tool at votes.gregtech.eu, you can see exactly who has voted on your posts in most cases. So I was able to block this person and avoid having a stalker downvoting everything I post.

IMO, users like this should be named and shamed so that everyone else has a chance to block them and remove bad actors from their Lemmy experience. We've got !fediblock@lemmy.dbzer0.com for admins to sus out bad instances. Why not something like that but for users to sus out other users? Or would that count as doxxing or something?

I found 3 penpal communities but they're all horny.

What do you all recommend? !GoodOffMyChest@lemmy.world? Something else?

Edit: removed !UnpopularOpinion@lemmy.world from the possible comms because their rules state NO POLITICS.

Heyhey, I'd love to try Veganuary next month. And something like a daily check-in post would really help keep me accountable, similar to how !stopdrinking@lemmy.world does it. It would feel a little rude to spam !vegan@lemmy.world with it though, so I think a new community would be warranted?
Maybe on the VeganTheoryClub Instance? Does anyone have an account there and could create it?

I sew clothes, bags, and stuffed animals.

I know that it's typically frowned upon to self-promote, but I could really use the help to sell my items.

If you know of an active community where it's okay to post a shop link & show off my clothes and items, I'd really appreciate it.

Thank you!

I'm looking for a place I can post one-off jobs, like to help get me unblocked during software development after I've spent hours on what should be a tiny issue. I know these market-type communities can be hard to moderate though.

I'm not sure what I'm looking for, so I apologize if this doesn't make sense. I don't mean "anything goes" places like 196, and I don't mean memes or joke or casual conversation communities either. I'm just wondering if there are communities with a loose set of rules where people can reply to a prompt in a game like manner, for example "repeat the same but change one word only", or " wrong answers only", I don't know, I'm open to suggestions for anything gamelike I haven't heard of.

Any equivalent of r/fossdroid or better?

any suggestion is more than welcome, thanks

One of my favorite things on the other site was seeing the users doing a song together, but I'd completely forgotten about it until someone just replied to my Jefferson Airplane quote with the next line. Would be very cool to see a Lemmy sings community. Anyone know of one? I'm coming up snake eyes on my search.

I'm not looking at obvious scam websites, unless the poster is actually unsure about it. But I was a community for sites that seem legit, but I'm skeptical for some reason.

I've been curious about 6DS.com, which has shirts identical to 6dollarshirts.com but costs more. What's also weird is that their Facebook page lists both sites. But their posts switched to links to 6DS.com in April.

I'm mostly looking for people to play games with on Steam. It would be nice to have someone to play co-op games with or even just know someone in a multiplayer lobby.

I only really have a couple friends and we haven't talked in months.

I'm wondering if there's a community out there for finding people to game with or more broadly making friends? I tried search some related buzz words but couldn't find anything

I'm looking for a community about epoxy and urethane resin casting. I'm just starting out and have some questions. I'll also take referrals to outside forums.

Hello,

I found Japanese learning communities which aren't that active but it least I can find some new post there however there aren't any Arabic learning communities. I would like to join one :)

I got banned from an .ml community for basically nothing and I remembered .ml is the tankies instance. So I'm looking for an alternative so I can be off of the instance entirely.

Is there a community for the Warcraft 3 World Editor? I love working with it but I don't enjoy using Forums such as hiveworkshop. Does a community for this exist?

I am trying to compile a list of positive communities on Lemmy. If I’m missing any please feel free to add

Positive Communities of Lemmy: c/Wholesome@reddthat.com c/UpliftingNews@lemmy.world c/LemmyBeWholesome@lemmy.world c/MotivationalMemes@reddthat.com c/OptimistsUnite@reddthat.com

I'm going completely crazy trying to find games that are just games and not cheap clones of other money making machines.

Fix it has 3 users. Boo. Reddits fix it group has gone to discord - no thanks.

Is there a community for moments where you think of something or have a burst of nostalgia out of the blue that you haven’t thought of for an extended period of time?

What made me think of this was that I just had a moment like that when I found a pencil on the ground, where the wood was super pale and the outside was brightly colored and it reminded me of having to use the Yikes! plastic pencils back in the 90s. I don’t think I’ve thought of them since then…

Looking for a community similar to r/okbuddypaleo with memes about paleontology, dinosaurs, and prehistory

Preferably an active one? Thanks

I haven't been able to come by any, has anyone seen one? I'm a huge fan of the show and it's one of the things I miss about Reddit :/

I’m looking for lemmys that revolve around MBTI
