Where can I post stuff I make?
I enjoy making and sharing things, like websites, music, art, whatever. Is there a good lemmy community for this? It can be media-specific or not, but I’ve browsed all communities for a while and nothing has popped up at me.
How important is port forwarding, actually?
I’ve been putting off renewing my mullvad membership because of the port forwarding thing. I only want to use it for torrenting. Is it really crucial to find a VPN that supports port forwarding? If so, what’s the go to option now that it’s becoming increasingly uncommon?
First Reddit API change, and now Twitter is rate limiting. Is this the implosion of corporate social media?
Probably not but one can hope… to the Fediverse lemmings!
Non-Tiling Window Manager Users?

Is there a clipboard manager with killring-like functionality?
I’m currently using Klipper, and it’s fine, I suppose, but I miss the ability to cycle through the previous clips with simple keypresses, like in the emacs killring (the only thing I miss from my very brief experimentation with emacs back in the day).

How do you include a thumbnail in a video url post?
When posting a video url on Lemmy, is there any way to have the post display a picture of the video thumbnail? It would look so much better than gray squares with an outlink arrow in the corner.
Lemmy communities need a distinct one word name for communities like how reddit has "subreddits"
Part of the latest migration wave. Something I realized when looking for communities on google is that “lemmy community” is super clumsy.
Healing logos in games
I’m hoping to design a logo that that is recognizable as both the archtype of healer from the context of gaming; but also as a symbol for the irl field of medicine....
How do I find a list of communities sorted by popularity?
I’m using Liftoff but also checked out Connect and am trying to figure this out. (It took me multiple tries just to create an account so bear with me!). How can I find popular communities? I found a master list but it was in alphabetical order and wouldn’t let me sort by subscriber count.
Multiple duplicate posts showing up on feed.
Is this a Lemmy thing or a Thunder thing? This is just a small sample. These posts show up another 5 or 6 times...

(Meta) Do we have a general forum for this instance?
I noticed that this instance is on 0.17.4 instead of 0.18.0, which prevents login through Jerboa (the most popular android lemmy app atm)....

Is anyone defending the Rebuilders?
I want to be clear on my bias here: I firmly believe that open source would not be a ‘thing’ if it weren’t for Red Hat. Linus Torvalds himself once said (albeit 10 years ago) that the shares he received from Red Hat before their IPO was ‘his only big Linux payout’. I don’t think anyone would disagree with the...
Word to Emoji Rules Changing? On phone
Hey, 2 days ago I downloaded to try "Thumb-key" ad I discovered it from here, it looked fun and is fun. Now I just gave a problem which is for me personally pretty annoying. I use Signal and usually when writing to my SO, I write :heart: to get a ❤️ or I write :kiss: to get a 💋 emoji. And for some reasons since I...

Is there a way to check if I've been banned from a community on Lemmy?
I keep trying to post to a news community and my ass keeps getting an error, was wondering what was up with that.
