I feel stupid for asking, but how did the trans community decided that the giant shark Blajah will become their favourite plushie ?...

Whaf do you think of hosting an AMA with John Oliver to make Lemmy/kbin officially a viable Reddit replacement?

He would be the perfect person to AMA as he’s already associated with Reddit revolts, and it would result in tremendous media coverage and mark fediverse as a viable alternative to Reddit. What do you think?

I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack?

How do pre-reddit influx lemmy members feel?

I was wondering how the pre-reddit lemmy members feel about the influx of ex-reddit. Have things got worst or better? Is there any lemmy etiquette that we are missing?

As a long time Reddit user, there’s something about Lemmy and the fediverse that feels really refreshing and new. I think it has to do with a few things…...

Why don't we use PeerTube to host the videos for Lemmy/kbin?

Would sound stupid as I don’t indepth of PeerTube yet but I have heard that PeerTube is federated video sharing platform.

What communities ("subreddits") would you like to see?

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?...

When subscribing to communities it occasionally says "Subscribe Pending" - any ideas why?

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

I am new to the Fediverse. I vaguely understand how Lemmy instances broadcast content to each other, but I was surprised to find Lemmy communities on kbin. How does that work?

And it also seems that mastodon can also be “syndicated” to these other communities, and vice versa? Is that true?...

Can you please give me some tips on how to grow and popularize a Lemmy community?

Hi,...

Animals and insects suddenly are as smart as humans, which species should we try to befriend first before a world war between species occur?
