Their sidebar appears to be intentionally vague. It is overwhelmingly low quality memes.

This may be more of an “out of the loop” thing, but I’m new to this site and I’m noticing that lemmy.world seems surprisingly bereft of any substantial NSFW content. I’m surprised! Isn’t the adage that porn motivates technological progress?...

In the profile settings (direct from website browser, not app or app affiliate) it states “show bot account” and then right above it it says “bot accounts” with check marks for each much how we select if we want to see nsfw posts....

Assuming he doesn’t have a red phone line directly to Batman like in the old TV show, obviously.

When looking at a post in wefwef it shows upvote downvote and then a symbol like a flag (the save icon I assume) but I click it and nothing happens. Is there a way to save a post?

Isn’t this a very common phrase? Surely, someone already thought about this?

I’ve created and account in programming.dev. When I search for a community, sometimes I don’t find in when I search in programming.dev but I find it in lemmy.world

Do we at this point have any substantial data on just how many users Reddit actually lost due to this?...

TLDR - Why don’t Lemmy instances use methods like affiliate links to increase their funding?...

I’m in Lemmy.world, but I’ve seen there are others. Do I have to switch in between them (if so, how?) or is it fine the way I have it?...

I have seen several of my image posts (and several other posters pictures) become turned sideways after posting even though the image is right side up before posting. How do I ensure my image won’t get rotated once posted?

I know that users from different instances can have @instance after the user name, but what does it mean when the username is @username ?

I don't remember what caused the Voat's origin, except it involved Reddit HQ. And then it went under in 2020....

I don’t want to block all nsfw content but I really don’t want to have to block every new porn community that pops up on lemmynsfw. Is there a way to block all the communities that originate at lemmynsfw?

I am still learning this whole thing and I ended up creating accounts here and on Mastodon. Is that necessary or do I automatically have a Mastodon username with my Lemmy? I used the same stuff on both accounts, can I merge them or something?...

My understanding is that favorites are equivalent to twitter likes, and boosts are equivalent to twitter retweets, but on twitter people like way more then they retweet, so why is it different on mastodon?

A lot of these people are boomers. Rushkoff is much younger and I think Gen X. Where are the Gen Y/Z versions? Are there more Gen Xers to check out?...

Probably more stupid than most questions here, but Lemmy seems to have a learning curve. I’m using Connect to access the fediverse....

I’ve been on Beehaw and Lemmy.world for the past two weeks now and while people seem to be posting content that isn’t about Reddit or Twitter or how great federated platforms are, such content does not receive as many comments/discussion as topics about the Reddit API controversy, or the current Twitter controversy, etc....

First post. Majorly a lurker on reddit, and now that I’ve switched to Lemmy, most likely will continue to stay a lurker....

In our backyard, we don’t have to worry about it because our backyard is fenced, and the dogs keep a tight perimeter. However, out front I’ve recently been spooking cats hiding in the bushes beneath our bird feeders....

This is my ‘Hello Lemmy World’ post!...

I’ve seen the app Apollo as the center of the reddit protest (it was mentioned and cited more than any other app in relevant posts). I’ve also seen many Lemmy clients in development taking inspiration from it....
