I started moving from Reddit to Lemmy a few days ago, and since then I’ve been forcing myself to spend time here and getting myself used to it. I quickly checked the list of popular instances and decided to join lemmy.world and not beehaw because I didn’t like their decision of defederating other big lemmy instances....

I found SiLENTGATE releases on xREL. Does anyone know who some other German scene groups are?

Mostly the title, but it would be nice to have more options now that Reddit and Twitter have alternatives. I would love to see a YouTube and ticktock version. Maybe even an instagram as well.

A lot has happened since the reddit protests and the actual subreddit is completely unusable now. What will happen to the mods that were originally updating the megathread, because that thing is literally my life at this point and with increasing actions being taken by corporates to stop piracy, how long do we have on the...

My wife found out Saturday through an ancestry.com DNA test that her dad is not her actual biological father. Her mother had a supposed one time incident with a man she found on Facebook through the names on the ancestry test. Her parents separated when she was 6. She wasn’t close with her dad over the years, but there was...

I moved here from reddit but I figure it will be awhile before my niche communities come back up. Anyone here into lucid dreaming or dreams in general?...

Lemmy seems to be incredibly slow, 2+ second delay in any action through lemmy.world even after restarting the browser. it wasnt like this the other day but now its basically unusable. Any suggestions?

Hello! So I saw that skyrim is discounted on gog right now and I was wondering if the anniversary edition on gog would be good for modding. I read somewhere that the gog version isn’t compatible with dll SKSE mods. Is it worth getting on gog or should I wait for steam to discount it?

I am wondering what can be done in Linux to reduce CPU power consumption. In Windows, I’m familiar with setting and testing power limits and undervolting using Throttlestop (amazing tool), but to my knowledge no such tool (command line or otherwise) exists for Linux....

Let it all out. Be a storm

Hi—I have some free Azure credits and would like to use them to host a personal Lemmy instance. I know Lemmy is containerised, but is there a preferred choice for hosting in Azure—AKS, Azure Container Apps, Container Instances? Also, any guidance on appropriate PostgreSQL configuration—I know there are some options around...

In addition to teaching lots of private lessons and directing three teenage performance groups, I also direct an adult band, which currently has eight people between about 30 and 70 in it. I’m 28 and my codirector is in his 30s, but this week, he was out, so the school owner guy, who’s in his 40s, subbed for him, making me...

Basically I want to follow kbin.social/m/chess without the assle of browsing a different website....

Is there anything you’d like to talk about or share but haven’t found a place to do so? What communities (or “subreddits” for all Reddit refugees) would you like to see?...

I’m interested to know whether you have a specific process or tool you use for managing your PGP keys?...

I’ve been looking for one for a long while but I’ve never been successful in actually finding and getting into one. Any suggestions?

Is this based on instance performance accepting the subscription, or is it a generalize Lenny bug where it doesn’t send it properly?

We are aware images aren’t loading and new images can't be uploaded. It appears to be a bug with the latest Lemmy update as we’re not the only instance with this problem. We have filed a bug report and are looking into possible solutions and hopefully it will get fixed soon. We are also looking into better ways to...

I’ve heard a few people on here are starting their own personal instances so they can federate independently with different instances without relying on a larger, third-party instance. If I wanted to do this, would I need to own an actual server, separate from my PC?

First, some background: I first became aware of PC gaming in 2012 (15yrs after HL1, 7yrs after HL2). I played both games back-to-back and then later replayed both separately....
