Are there any good apps for texting on a computer?
I’ve tried Google’s Messages for Web, Microsoft’s Phone Link, and KDE’s Connect. They all seem to have the same problem: they lose connection constantly and have to be unpaired and re-paired. Is this a problem inherent to the way that Android works? Has anyone managed to solve it, or is there a setting to fix it?...
Why do notifications of replies to my post lead to a blank page?
I made a post a little while back on one sub, it got come replies. Nothing abnormal. But when I click on them to reply it just leads to a mostly blank page. Not an error but not a blank page either. Just a mostly blank page. Lemmy still shows the header bar on top. And the links to “modlog” and “legal” and...

Best Movies of 2023 (So Far)
I want to explore more of the movies released this year. Since we are about halfway through the year I wanted to create a list of what I might’ve missed. I think my favorite so far is probably Oppenheimer.
How do you keep your WearOS device clean?
I’ve been pretty careful with my Galaxy Watch 5 and make sure to rinse it off once a day and regularly after a swim. I’ve noticed a white minerallly build up around certain areas. I’ve tried soaking it in water for 30 minutes and scrubbing with a soft bristle brush but it doesn’t make much difference....
Is there a guide somewhere to how well Lemmy / kbin / Mastadon / etc interact?
As I understand it, the main fediverse softwares all implement ActivityPub in a little bit different way, and so don’t fully overlap with one another in terms of how well you can see content from one on another and in what ways you can interact with it. Is there a summary anywhere that just has a quick breakdown of what...
Self hosted instances
I am considering creating my own lemmy instance as my current instance (lemmy.world) is often down, and I enjoy this kind of a project. That being said I haven’t been able to find any resources on hw needed for this? If I have a raspberry pi 4b 8g with 128gb is that enough for just me using it? Do I need to pay for a cloud...

We should have something like federated communities
Communities on different instances about the same topic should have the option to essentially federate so a post on one appears on all of them and opening any of them shows you the comments from all of them. This way when lemmy.world is down its not a big deal because posting to any news community federates to all of the...

Tunnel Vision
So the family and I are on holiday in Greece and we’re on a bus ride to see some place and we go through a long tunnel. I naturally go “oooooooooooooo” as we enter. My family look at me in shame, the rest of the passengers just look…
Temu Ads
Every time I see a slideshow on Tik Tok, it seems like it ends with a freaking Temu ad saying some BS about how they partnered with some bigger company like Fornite or Amazon. One of the ones that really gets me is when they have an anti-capitalist slideshow which they end with an advertisement for buying stuff from Temu at a...
There are identical twins out there whose parents confused one with the other and now they living their life with the name of the other sibling, never noticing because it doesn't make any difference.
Recommended FLAC converter?
I have a collection of music in flac format and now I want to store them on my phone. flac files get too much space and downloading all the playlist in mp3 takes as much time as finding decent and real high quality flacs (there is plenty of songs on internet which only look like 320kbps and are not really high quality). So I...
