I see no use for the numlock key, I'd rather just have the numpad on the whole time. Are there actually cases where it is useful or people who for some reason prefer their numpad turned off?

I know this is not a feature oficially on lemmy as of now (at least the github github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2397?ref=privacy… the issue is still open)...

So considering there’s a substantial push to get away from places like Reddit and Twitter, as an outsider I’m wondering how the fediverse is going to actually provide solutions to some already bad problems within higher resource platforms:...

I can unsubscribe to many communities, but one: FOSS for [email protected] it tells me I’m not subcribed, but it’s in my list of communities. So I have subscribed. Reloaded the page. Unscribed. Reloaded and it’s still there? It’s only this particular community…

I’ve replaced my old laptop with a new one and I have over 350GB worth of data to move over, moving all of it to an external drive and then moving them to the new laptop doesn’t seem efficient and it seems like it’s gonna take forever...

I just switched over to feddit.uk to reduce the strain on lemmy.world. Either I’ve forgotten or am doing something wrong, because I can’t seem to subscribe in what I thought was the right way....

It seems you can’t list all communities on a remote instance. But it also seems like going to that instance won’t necessarily show all communities unless you log in. Am I missing something for how this is supposed to work?

Just as the title suggest. Is there anyway we can prevent Lemmy from being such a giant sphere of political annoyance just like Reddit? No matter where you go on reddit before the API changes and even now, someone has to bring politics into it. Even in post or subreddits where it’s not needed....

I’m trying to create a community on Lemmy.world but it seems to not want to let me click the create button after filling in everything, Is this a error or is it because I am new to it?

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?...

A bit of context....

Does a search in Lemmy return results just from the local instance my account is on, or all communities I subscribe to?

Sorry for asking it here, but I don’t know which communities can help me with some tech problems.

How so?

Hey folks!...

I love catbox.moe it’s really really handy but sometimes I need to share multiple photos at once and I was just wondering if there’s a solution to that…...

Hey, not actually my garage, I’m at my parents house and I have 2 days before they come back. I would like to advance them a bit before they arrive homes and start the cleaning of the garage (we had people in winter putting all their gear here and stuff to rework the house) The picture is the ground after I passed the broom,...

Aside from WWII, which wars were a threat to our country? I hope I don’t sound disrespectful to veterans, but when we thank them for our freedoms I am a bit conflicted. Thank you.

So, coming from the world of RIF where downvotes haven’t been a thing for quite some time: what are downvotes for in Lemmy?...

I don’t get it and I see weird bean posts all over.
