I still use Font Renamer to manage my font collection. It works great but hasn’t received an update since 2008. Even the website looks straight out of the Windows XP era.

When I sub to a community, I don’t see all the posts if I’m logged in to my instance. If I go directly to url of the community I can see all the posts....

Being an old grandpa not that adept at tech, I don’t know how Lemmy works. I mean, I know it’s decentralized and it’s supposed to be better than reddit, but still, how vulnerable is this platform from censors looking to block anything in here?...

I have a question? Why are there so many links to reddit on lemmy? We need our own content and not just bots linking to subreddits.

The arguments I’ve heard about tracking etc are misguided and don’t understand the actual risks....

Just got interested in what the age breakdown is on here....

I’ve been using wefwef WebApps to browse the fediverse and am curious to understand how it works. I do not have knowledge deep knowledge about coding or programming.

When I was on reddit, “Hot” sorting (of both main page and subreddits) usually was more than enough to see ones that are new and popular at the same time...

So if I understand GDPR correctly: If I want a service/business to remove all my personal data, they have to comply with it in a certain timespan or get in trouble with the law....

Mine is from an early 2000s film called Vanilla Sky....

I see people cross-posting but I don’t know how they are doing it. All I see for posting options on the lemmy interface is a single community I can select.

So I’ve seen quite a few comments from people regarding the lack of karma so far in Lemmy/The Fediverse, and I was just wondering if because of the nature of how it works if karma is even possible? Although I wouldn’t mind too much about it existing, people have made good points about how much it helps moderation and keeps...

I loved the stories. Is there a community for horror-stories?

Is there any way to view all posts on a given instance (as if that instance was your home instance and set to “local”), and not just a specific community/communities you are subscribed to?...

A post over at YSK talked about flossing, and mentioned water picks....

I understand that a user on any instance can subscribe to any community in the fediverse, but I have been a bit confused when searching for communities to join. Sometimes there are communities on different instances, with the exact same name....

Why is it that I can find the dogs community lemmy.world with over 2k subscribers while the same community does not appear when I search from vlemmy?

I’m just trying to gauge if the performance gain will be worth the additional effort and have some questions;...

Hello,...

I personally can’t wait to see communities like r/hiphopheads, r/internetisbeautiful, r/listentothis, r/battlestations… join lemmy and become as active as they are on reddit. what are some of y’all fav?

I really liked Spotify, but when they started subsidizing hate speech I left. For the last year, I keep trying different platforms and cannot find anything that works well. I am ok with spending money for no ads. I have very diverse music tastes so want to have different “stations” based on my mood. Any suggestions?

So I moved from feddit.de to lemmy.world and wish to delete my account on Feddit but I have a few posts there that will be useful to others, will they get deleted with the account?
