We can upload images directly to Lemmy but that does increase the load on the instances. What other services do you recommend? Do you have a go to?

How many times have we seen people create throwaway accounts on these types of platforms? People often want to share something valuable yet intimate without having it be tied to their online identity for privacy reasons. Some folks create new accounts for this reason. Others decide to remain silent....

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?...

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

I have played Eve Online so many hours, and it’s a bad game. Don’t do it. you will spend hundreds of hours dreaming about the cool thing you’ll do later, but for 99% of players the cool thing will never happen. You will be part of the one percent’s cool thing....

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....

What would be some fact that, while true, could be told in a context or way that is misinfomating or make the other person draw incorrect conclusions?

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’d love it if client-side processing could collapse these posts into one.

If during sexual intercourse, instead of moaning, people could only express themselves using famous tv and movie quotes, which quote do you think would become the most common line used?...

I listen to youtube more than I watch any kind of TV. Here’s my list, what does everyone else watch or listen to?...

Hi friends,...

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…...

Would sound stupid as I don’t indepth of PeerTube yet but I have heard that PeerTube is federated video sharing platform. I also heard it can’t hold much a load which makes sense as HD videos takes lots of load. That begs me the question why don’t we use it for small/short videos(not those vertical videos) to build...

For me, I’m nearly 40 and I really love Avatar the last Airbender, reading YA novels, and sometimes I make pasta with fun shapes, just because I can....

Today I was made aware that beehaw.org blocked my entire instance. I would be ok if I simply could not write a post/comment in beehaw, that would be reasonable....

This question is especially for people who have joined in the last week. Have you used other fediverse platforms or is this your first time really using one? What do you think of it so far? Are you aware that you can comment on Lemmy posts with a Mastodon account?

Im working up the courage to. Ill never go back, but it is also hard to delete that much history just for a statement

Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it...

Personally i’m looking forward to seeing twobestfriendsplay, arkhamasylum, whowouldwin, and respectthreads, on here.
