Just checked instances after the hack and noticed that lemmy.world is federated with all of the Lemmygrads. Was it always?

I can’t help but notice most (all I’ve seen anyway) of the federated projects are hosted on GitHub. GitLab is also not federated, but can be self hosted and has at least discussed it....

I know this is going to sound like some clickbait bullshit title, but I’m genuinely curious, asking in good faith. My two oldest sons are enamored with him, and he seems like a genuine guy, so I’m asking - is he a nice guy? If you google the question, you get a bunch of reddit hate, which I don’t always trust,...

Even when I was living in a very liberal area, there were only a small handful of stores that advertised as worker co-ops. It’s funny too because those co-op stores were all incredibly popular and successful, so I don’t understand why they are so comparatively rare? The organizational structure seems simple to maintain, and...

I only see a handful of communities posts, but miss a lot from smaller communities that aren’t as active but do get daily posts. Reddit blended in smaller communities really well and it’s something I’m struggling with here.

I found a helpfull post last week and forgot to save it, is there a way to search for a post? All the app that i use only have search for community

Is there any hope? Or is it inevitable that big corporations will take over what started as a way to escape big corporate platforms and to focus on real communities and discussions and replace it with a toxic shithole pumped full of ads?

I would like to know what template would people prefer....

I’m a righty but hold my phone in my left hand. Works best for writing things down while holding it or typing on the keyboard

Ever since LemmyWorld went down in the hacking, I haven’t been able to log in using the account I created there. I do the login thing, and the little pop-up says “Logged In” but I’m not. I can’t see my Subscribed feed, I can’t comment or post. And I couldn’t ask this question! I also couldn’t start fresh because...

Is it worthwhile to try to get mods to combine them? It just seems like a bit of a waste when trying to grow a community and its split in two....

When I was a teenager, I used to recall my earlier childhood memories being rose tinted and almost dreamlike, now that I’m in my early 20s, my memories of my early to middle teenage years are also becoming dreamy and rose tinted in a way. Does anyone experience this? Is it possible that I will I remember my early adult years...

What are cis and trans alternate types of? I don’t think it’s “gender identity” because wouldn’t that just be man, woman or nonbinary regardless of whether they’re cis or trans? Cis/trans just being a qualifier?...

Do I need a 3rd party website like Strawpoll to do polls? If so, which one do you think would be the best for polls for music (maybe something that plays a sample of the song?)

The title says it all. If qubits can be in the position of a 1 and 0, why can’t multiple computers using 1s and 0s accomplish the same thing?

In the last year or so I started to see so many people of my age that have done truly incredible things and still doing more....

I have two blankets I really like and use frequently, but I don't like having on my bed (due to them being too warm). If I had them on the floor overnight when I don't need them, would it damage the blankets?...

I’m using Firefox on an Android phone to view Lemmy. When I click a post at the second page of posts and go back after reading, it takes me to the first page of posts. Am I doing something wrong?

I use this account for normal user things, but I want to auto-post social media content in a community I’m in (!taylorswift) which I own. (The content will probably just post 0-3 times a day)....

Obviously, most social networks have some sort of engagement button for liking/up voting/promoting a piece of content. As well as helping users feel like they’re participating, rather than just passively consuming, most networks also use the likes/ups to filter or promote content to other users....
