Discussion topic for you all, I’m curious to hear everyone’s thoughts on this!...

I usually start with Food Wishes, Serious Eats, or the New York Times. Julia Child for French food, Just One Cookbook for Japanese food. Budget Bytes when the bank account is looking a little thin. Dessert Person when I have a lot of time and want to knock the socks off my friends.

A recent post here about 4th July sales has made me consider buying a VPS but the cost still seems a little steep. What are the main advantages of using a VPS?

I get where the name comes from, but Threads may or may not have been the best choice

Everywhere I look there are people advocating for defederation from this and that! Do you even understand what you’re suggesting? Do you get what’s the point of decentralized social media and activity pub?...

Cat: So, to preface: soon we’ll be ordering an ElectroEncephalogram (EEG) headset. The reason for this is because we’re a plural system, and want brainwave data on what happens when we do various system stuff. Pretty obviously there’s going to be some bias involved on account of who we are, but we’re going to try being...

I really want to nip threads in the bud. Besides blocking threads.net itself, defederate from any instances that do not. This is blatantly an EEE strategy and a united front is the only way to save what have been accomplished. Here is how Indivudals can do it on mastodont as an example to follow. hachyderm.io/Edit found this ,...

A few examples include s*x questions on askreddit, “this” comments, nolife powermods, jokes being more frequent than actual answers

Is there a quick way to see what instances are federated with each other? I know for a while (and maybe still are) beehaw and Lemmy.ml defederated from Lemmy.world. Are they still defederated? Is it worthwhile to post on their communities if those users won’t see it?

If you’re having trouble seeing posts on the instance, including the discussion post for “Among the Lotus Eaters”, chances are you need to check your account’s language settings....

I’m looking to create an image gallery, to show images I have taken. Is there any software that would be great for this? I am open to any suggestions....

You have a couple days left to buy stamps that can be used to mail letters after the price increase....

Saw a similar question about podcasts but I personally prefer text content.

Just curious. I’m hearing that a lot of people are using various apps with Lemmy but I’m having such a good experience with the browser version that I don’t understand the point of adding an additional layer via an app in between my access to the service. I’d love to hear people’s opinions about the pros and/or cons to...

Hello

It’s so funny seeing a large group (almost all) of the people in my feed being so excited about this new social media thing that they managed to get in through invitation on Instagram....

I’ve recently decided to try and degoogle my life, or at least lessgoogle it. One app I use regularly is GoogleVoice. It works really well to keep my work and personal numbers separated. Also works reasonably well to keep my personal number clean from spam. What is out there that provides similar functionality?

Hello! I recently set up a small instance running on pleroma which was my first time setting up something like that. I’m currently thinking about abandoning it, wiping the computer, and doing everything over again, this time with all of the knowledge I have now so Ill mess less things up, a dramatically better site name, as...

Does anyone have good sources for audio books? Finding a specific book can often be hit or miss on torrent sites.

I’ve been on a spy fiction kick recently- I really enjoyed the recent The Man from UNCLE movie and I Expect You to Die video game. I’m looking for some novels that are in a similar vein (classic 60s spy versus an egomaniac villain out to take over the world). However, I cannot stand the sexism in Ian Fleming’s books....

I just read this point in a comment and wanted to bring it to the spotlight....
