I know Lemmy is about to take off because the porn is quickly moving from drawn henti and furry images to gonewild onlyfan contributors. I call it the QOTP Index (Quality Of The Porn). Reddit is done.

It will feel like home once I hear about the undertaker throwing mankind off hell in a cell

Are there actually blind people without pupils, or is that a Hollywood thing?

A lot of movies, especially horror movies (I’m watching one now) depict blind people as not having pupils. But my understanding, based on blind people I’ve met, is that the problem is usually in the lens or the retina, and that they have pupils the same as everyone else. Are there actually blind people out there whose eyes...

Can I use two separate accounts on two instances on the same browser?

Is it okay to set up two accounts for two instances on the same web browser? When I go to visit the first instance, i can see that account is logged in for that instance. So, that works. Then I direct myself to the another instance’s community/post, I can see the 2nd account is logged in for that instance. Would it make sense...

Pinned Comments

Absolutely love the work done so far by the mods, it’s a thankless tasks, but you’re all doing excellent. Only comment I have is there are too many pinned threads at the moment (at least on the LiftOff app), it takes a while to scroll past them. Not sure if anybody else is having this?

how do you make friends if large gatherings arent your thing?

I do like large gatherings, but I don’t really do well meeting people and making friends in them. I find it too chaotic and difficult to “be myself” with so many people. I also feel there tends to be more shallow conversation in these settings making it great for banter and social energy but less great for connecting and...

Gaming on Linux has come a long way

TL;DR; tried gaming on Linux again after not having done so for ~10 years and am absolutely blown away by how much improved it is...

How do you post Gifs?

I guess the title basically says it all. Anyone know how to post gifs, like you would post an image? Can you do that?...

What would cause a large swarm of wasps to fly through a neighborhood?

Earlier today I was outside with my dogs when I heard a persistent and loud buzzing. Looked up and saw wasps had filled the sky above mine and my neighbors yard

Are We Selling Out Already?

When you say something is “red” it’s actually every color except red since red is the color being reflected off the object.

What’s your new favorite color now???

Anyone here also have rabbits to share?

[Question] Anyone ever boiled sunflower leaves to add flavor to dishes?

Just started playing around with sunflower leaves, and I’m really liking the flavor they add to stuff, and am looking for other ideas I have not thought of as of yet....

Moving to new platforms/3rd party apps had made me realise everyone else has something against collapsing child comments

I miss you RIF. I just wanna see the daddy comments.

at what point do you draw the line for "retro"?

And what category does the PS2, Wii, Xbox, Nintendo DS/3DS fit into? They aren’t retroz but they’re not really “modern” either

Gaming often fetishises the new but many great things exist in the past, so let's strap into our time machines and talk about our favourite games released before say 2010?

Just as with books, movies, plays etc the past holds a treasure trove of amazing experiences. Unless you have a lot more free time than I do it’s unlikely you’ve played anywhere near the majority of the classics. Let’s get out those pink sunnies and compare notes on some of our favourite releases....

[Feature Request] A Package Manger... for Communities

After a week on Lemmy/kbin it strikes me that one of the major oncoming problems that the Fediverse has is the fragmentation of communities across multiple instances that were formerly centralized in reddit. While this fragmentation into instances has significant upsides, it shifts responsibility for finding and subscribing to...
