Block instances yourself with Lemmy Connect
As far as I know, Lemmy Connect is currently the only way for individual users to block instances themselves. Sure, you can do this if you host your own instance but not everyone wants to go to that length....
Email Hosting w/SMTP, what do you use?
I’ve recently been trying to degoogle myself, and in doing so I’m going to need another email. I tried ProtonMail, but apparently only business accounts can use SMTP, even though their features claim SMTP access. I’m plenty fine paying for the service, but going from the $6/month to $12/month just to get notification...
Do any modern desktop environments support a grid layout of virtual desktops?
Greetings, I come as an Ubuntu/Unity user and what has kept me around is the wonderful support for a 3x3 virtual desktop setup and hotkeys to move around the desktops in 2d space. Does anything like this exist in any of the modern DE’s? I would love to try it out with cinnamon, plasma, gnome etc but there are so many and I...
There's a TCG where you can actually TRADE cards? lol
Most games claim to be a TCG when in fact they are simply CCGs. I know that isn’t easy to create an infrastructure where to allow the exchange between players. The only TCGs I know are (unfortunately) NFT games of dubious quality.

How do you post a picture?
Probably more stupid than most questions here, but Lemmy seems to have a learning curve. I’m using Connect to access the fediverse....
Is it possible to select a default posting language?
I think the idea of assigning a language to a post is great. However, I always use the english language. I’d like to know if there’s a way to automatically tag all my posts as english, instead of manually selecting it....

How do self-hosters or smaller sites handle security?
Supposing that they, y’know, try to keep their setups secure anyway. With how much you see about breaches of different sites, it’s hard to imagine individuals and smaller groups being able to keep their stuff secure....
What character threads would have been good movies?
Most of what works in the Star Trek movies evolve from what we know about the characters. Kirk’s love for his ship and history with the Klingons, Picard’s history with the Borg, Data’s struggle with emotions, that sort of thing....
Is it possible to create a computer processor whose bare metal/assembly language is closer to higher level languages?
A bit of context....
How do you guys back up your server?
I have a home server that I’m using and hosting files on it. I’m worried about it breaking and loosing access to the files. So what method do you use to backup everything?

Fediverse, one account per "type" of network or just one account?
Since the Fedidverse is all connected, should I have one account for accessing both Lemmy and Mastodon or have separate accounts for each one (as I do now)?
Why does it seem like desert cultures tend to cover most of their body, while tropical cultures tend to wear very little clothing?
Like, I know that desert dwellers do it to protect their bodies from the sun, but isn’t that also an issue in the tropics?
Lemmy vs kbin?
I have been thinking which of the two should i use. If i understand fully i can still browse lemmy instances on kbin. And i can even check out mastodon users on it....

Is there an iOS app that can download YouTube music songs to mp3 like InnerTune can for Android?
Obviously Android is clearly a superior platform, but the only device someone I know has is an iPhone, and I want to know if I can recommend them an app to easily do this for them.
Would it make sense to have #CashAwarenessMonth
Maybe December? So we all take money out of banks, at least current month salary, and spend cash only. I think that is something that shouldn’t be hard to do and it would show if we, the people, have any power left to make positive changes for the future or we can just surrender and eat bugs....
Ring finger interactions with pinkie
I recently heard that the nerves controlling the pinkie and ring finger are intertwined to the degree that it’s almost impossible for most people to move the pinkie and ring fingers without the other. Does it count as “independent” if one twitches while the other does the real moving? I think I may finally be special!

What's the state of x86/AMD64 compatible Android?
So I was drafting a blog post about an x86 tablet and was quickly going to mention running x86 versions of Android like Bliss as an option, but I can’t seem to figure out exactly what/if active projects are out there....
