Is there any more ethical solution to our current circumstances than "murder all billionaires"? (kbin.social)

Does it matter if I skip sponsored ad segments in YouTube videos? (kbin.social)

As in, would the channel be losing out on money? Because I don't want to take away from small creators if there is a retention rate for viewership of that exact segment, but I would prefer to skip any of the "but first check out this shitty mobile game".

I understand it's normal to want to be in a relationship, but how do you feel happy when you aren't? (kbin.social)

I'm 36, and while my love life has been varied and interesting, over the last few years I've started to want to settle down. I know it doesn't happen overnight. But recently it's been weighing on me more and more. I reminisce about past relationships. I feel hopeless about meeting someone in the future who shares my values....

Can slow songs be a banger? (kbin.social)

My understanding of the word banger is it's reserved for good songs. There are many good slow songs as well, but the word banger seems to imply something more intense and bombastic. So, is it appropriate to describe slow songs as a banger?

Isn't technically everything open-source? (kbin.social)

I don't know (but wanna learn) programming, but, for example, can't you inspect the code of an app if it's installed?...

Why does it seem different platforms of the fediverse are not so good at communicating with each other? Is this something that will eventually improve? (kbin.social)

I have an account on kbin. Recently I saw a post across my feed in which a magazine that I follow (that's based on a Lemmy instance) was celebrating over 1k subscribers. When I visited, I saw only 240 or so....

Is it just me, or are conspiracy theories trending right now? (kbin.social)

I'm using instagram to browse the discover feed mindlessly sometimes. I know, it's stupid, but I'm bored....

How are people taught if they are born blind and deaf? (kbin.social)

Why are Americans so obsessed with dentistry? (kbin.social)

The dental industry in America is massive. Why is it such an important part of the American lifestyle?

Is Wealth University job application process a scam? (www.wealthuniversity.io)

I just had a inquiry call with the person in charge of the site and it all seems to good to be true. 1,000$ and they handle the workload to get you a job offer you like. They apply to 30-50 jobs a day on your behalf until you have a job. They also mentor your through the entire process. I can’t find any reviews of comments...

[SOLVED] How to run Lemmy Account Migrator? (github.com)

I’ve heard about LASIM a few times now, this great tool for migrating Lemmy subscriptions from one account to another. I downloaded it from Github recently to try it out… only problem? I have no clue how to get it to run. All the instruction I read online just say “run LASIM” as if it’s that trivial and leave me...

[US] Looking for some ideas for freelance work / "side hustle" (fedia.io)

Title. I found out recently that I need some major dental work in the near future and I don't have a damn clue how I am going to raise the extra money.

Is it okay to leave blankets on a basement floor if it's right next to your bed? (kbin.social)

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?...

How does this federated forum / site work? (kbin.social)

I migrated from reddit like a lot of folks. I'm using kbin.social, but it seems I can also see posts from people at places like lemmy.world. How many different instances are there?
