I was wondering where everyone went to get news, reviews, trailers, etc. IGN has always left a bad taste in my mouth with their seemingly bias reviews. I used to go to the gaming, games, Xbox, and a couple other smaller niche subreddits to gather the vast majority of the info. Now I’d like some advice on what others favorite...

My muscle memory is having a stupidly hard time shifting from Reddit to Lemmy, so I keep typing out comments I’ve put careful thought into, and at the last minute hitting the Cancel button!

Is it possible with one of the Lemmy apps to display how many times I have upvoted a previous user’s comments?

Afaik, whenever an Activitypub instance has defederated from another it has always had to do with some combination of bad user behavior, poor moderation, and/or spam. Are the various instance admins who have decided to preemptively block threads.net simply convinced that these traits will be inevitable with it? Is it more of a...

Maybe this is why pi was chosen for half of the circumference of a circle.

I have a spare laptop running Linux Mint. I would like to try running my own instance and sharing it with a few users to help out and for the experience. Below are the specs. Do you think it will be powerful enough, and if so, how many users would it be able to handle? I could restrict uploading of media if that would make a...

The anti-spez crows likes to paint people who keep using Reddit as sheep. But are there people out there who actually think he’s doing a good job?

I am looking into getting a NAS setup at home, but have to consider wanting it to just work and work for my family who are not technically advanced. They use computers fine, but being asked to open a terminal would require letter by letter instructions....

Hey, rookie programmer here, I don’t know if this is the right place to ask this but what’s the use of this language specifically ?

If they are going to compile Coreboot for every motherboard they use, does this mean we could run Coreboot on newer hardware too? Are their efforts FOSS?...

Hi y’all! Sorry for asking so much on this sub! Y’all have been so helpful!...

I have an old laptop which didn’t exactly have top of the line specs when I bought it back in 2016. It does, however, run Ubuntu pretty competently (yes I know there are better distros, no I am not going to use them). It was cheap. As in it came with a Celeron in 2016 cheap, so it isn’t the speediest little guy....

Ever since I started using smart phones, I have been jumping between different weather apps and have not been very satisfied with most of them. I found the apps from the big weather providers like Accuweather and Weather Channel to be bloated and distracting with advertisements and irrelevant news. The app I was closest to being...

Hey guys, it’s me, Bizzle. I’m a tech hobbyist, but I think I’m a little out of my element here and I’m hoping you can help....
