If you have reddit coins that are about to go to waste... I would search for a "fuck u/spez" post and award it as much as you can
A little extra traffic will go to reddit… but fuck them. They’re taking monetary value away from your account, so ya might as well use the coins you have as you see fit (while you still can). Fuck u/spez and fuck reddit
What is the fediverse equivalent to TikTok?
Obviously Lemmy, Mastodon, Pixelfed, etc. are federated decentralized equivalent to their centralized counterparts, but what is the counterpart in the fediverse to TikTok? It is a dominant app for millions of people, and as far as I can tell the closest thing is Peertube, but isn’t that more of a YouTube equivalent? Does it...
Help with backup solution
So, this is a rather odd request of a backup solution, but it’s kinda what I want right now....
If wetness is the property of having water on something, what is the property of something in water?
I’m firmly on the side of “water is not wet” in this debate, but it’s a question that I was asked while I was high and have no answer to it. Water cannot itself be wet because you can’t get water on water. However, what is a fish in a lake? It can’t be wet until it’s taken out of the water, but it’s not dry...
I'm so thankful for this alternative.
I admit to spending too much time on Reddit during my work day as a distraction. It’s a problem. What’s worse is that Reddit has become so full of uninteresting content that I spend most of my time downvoting things that aren’t at all relevant to the sub they’re posted in. And with a lot of the front page subs being...

If you're building a whitebox server, you need to see this motherboard!
I’m sorry to disappoint you, in that this is a consumer motherboard. So yes, AMD PSP exists, no iLO....
[Suggestions] Good distros for gaming
Basically, I have a laptop (5800H/RTX3050) and Windows is irritating me to no end. I am thinking of completely formatting it and replacing it with whatever distro can give me the best gaming compatibility. For reference, I play - CS:GO, DoTA, Asphalt, and a little bit of Overwatch....
American media regularly censors the word ass but not the English word arse despite most Americans not knowing the difference is spelling not pronunciation.
Edit: I don’t mean they sound the same I mean the word arse is pronounced how I figured British would pronounce ass with the drawn r rather than the way arse is pronounced (at least where I’m from) it’s a hard r
Canon Connections: Strange New Worlds 2x04 - Among the Lotus Eaters
• The title refers to the Homer’s “Odyssey” when Odysseus’ voyage reached the land of the Lotus-eaters. These people’s primary food source was the fruit and flowers of the lotus, which was powerfully narcotic, and caused those of Homer’s crew who ate it to forget their desire to return home....
About half of the stuff on Reddit is just "Best of Twitter"
i really like how lemmy.world sorting by hot is a lot better than Reddit hot algorithm
YSK there are options for backing up / migrating your Lemmy subscriptions, blocks, etc.

[SOLVED] Steam Not starting on EndeavourOS/Arch
I’m getting a weird issue with steam on my desktop running endeavourOS with qtile, where steam starts and then immediately closes. I’ve been trying to figure out why this happens, but all of the solutions I could find from googling errors have said to uninstall xdg-desktop-portal or flatpak, but neither of those things...

What modern (gaming) laptops should be avoided for proprietary firmware or whitelists/gate keeping? Also posted Linux GPU telemetry data from Stable Diffusion
I’m looking for a machine to run OpenGPT, Stable Diffusion, and Blender. I’m on the precipice of buying an Alienware w/ Ryzen 9 with a Radeon RX6850m. I’ve never needed anything near this level on Linux and I’m scared TBH. I’d much rather get a System76, but the equivalent hw has Nvidia and costs more than twice as...
What are your go-to websites/chefs for recipes?

Pihole, Adguard home or blocky
Hey guys, I recently bought an orange pi zero 2 and, as the title suggests, I want to put an ad blocker on it. Those are the options. I also will put openvpn for external connection to my network. Does anyone have experience with them? What would you suggest?
Third party Reddit apps just got canned.

How to create a decentralized kind of wiki?
I keep feeling frustrated as valuable knowledge for my different hobbies over the last years became siloed away in corporate social media. I believe wikis could be a way out, but can we have decentralized, federated wiki software that can kind of talk among each other?

Looking for new books to read as I am preparing to head out on a much needed vacation and want to dig into some good reading. Can be fiction or nonfiction, just so long as it hooked you and made you want to keep reading and reading until the end.
