Yeah sadly I can't easily take over these platforms that I'd love to keep alive without using an alt account.

Also I love answering the comments, it get's hard to answer all of them if there's 100+ comments and some ask the same 2 questions I've answered a few times previously.

So there's certain games I've been playing but it seems like most are just not really active;
- Minecraft
- GTA Online
- Counter-Strike
- Satisfactory
- No Man's Sky
Are just a few of the games I play but obviously I want to find more things than just gaming communities.

I know i've got a few songs that I've got over 10 listens to, and I think a good goal for each track might be 1 play per pence that I spent on it, so a £0.99 song would be 99 plays.

Yes that can be helpful if you are the one feeling you are overstaying, a good amount of the time people are really nice and honest about things so that's really helpful

I get what you mean it seems like a lot of people push back from LGBT based things these days and it sucks. As a pan, trans woman I love finding gay content, especially to do with topics I enjoy such as Gaming.

TBH that is a fair enough group that I can see why there's no posts in lol

So the reason I purchase songs digitally is a few reasons;

  1. Purchasing an album is really expensive
  2. Purchasing the album is stupid for me as I normally only like 1-2 songs on it.
  3. I'm really autistic and can't deal with going to an artists shows
  4. I don't like how Streaming services work taking money no matter how much I listen to the music
  5. Digital Media can be copied and saved
  6. I know I could just download the MP3 from YouTube but I like to pay something towards the work

Yeah I guess that could feel strange but wouldn't that be better than 0 posts at all? Like hey least they are trying to grow the community and making some sort of effort.

@nostupidquestions When purchasing Music (£0.99 each) how many plays would you say made the purchase 'worth it'?

[-] sam@southampton.social 30 points 1 month ago

That's fair enough, I find when a community is empty I am less likely to even consider posting in it, compared to one that maybe has a single post from 6+ months ago.

Even if you are squatting on a community I think it makes sense to try and make it look active by posting yourself.

@asklemmy What is up with people creating Communities and then not even posting a single post in them?

Like wouldn't you want to be able to grow a community by doing a post here and there, even just a welcome post to say why you created the community would make sense wouldn't it?

[-] sam@southampton.social 31 points 1 month ago

As an autistic person I feel like i'm over staying my welcome sometimes, the easiest way to confront me is be like "hey, great to see you but I have other stuff to do. We should do this again"

@bizzle A TV licence is meant to pay for our public TV services (that you get through an Arial 'for free') You pay a subscription to pay for things such as the BBC and ITV both TV and Radio.

It is pretty much a joke at this point as they often try and come around and claim the lamest of reasons why you still need to pay for a TV Licence.

- "You have a TV"
- "It could still access the BBC"
- "Your phone could connect to the BBC"

It is just a bullshit way of a company trying to take money.

@The_Picard_Maneuver Here in the UK, sure we get Spam mail but there's red labels and stuff for really important mail from the government and things and most of the time it's just telling you to pay for a TV licence that you wouldn't use as you don't pay for live TV and just watch YouTube.

@dating Is there a dating app for Trans Woman to date any femme?

So, I'm poly and wanna find more femmes to possibly date. They don't have to be Trans but every time I use Grindr I seem to get femmes that are only wanting for hook ups or guys that are not really understanding what Femme only means. Is there a better dating app for femmes? (Perferible one that accepts trans woman obviously)
