1·1 year agoAh I see. I’ve never heard the term PWA, but yeah I did that as well for lemmyworld on iOS. My one complaint is there doesn’t seem to be a way to refresh the “app”
16·1 year agoNegative people are always saying we’ll never see anything like the early internet again with how everything is owned by corporations, but this last week on Lemmy has come damn close for me! Time to go be nostalgic about asking A/S/L in AIM chatrooms while watching flash animations on https://joecartoon.com/ eh @CoffeeBlood91@lemmy.ca?
(I can’t believe that site is still running!)
You and I both know your average Redditor isn’t going to stumble upon exploding heads, dbzer0, or some other niche instance. They’re going to end up at lemmy.ml, lemmy.world, shitjustworks, or kbin.social. If they don’t like what they see on one of the generalized aggregators, then how would a “default community” view be any different?
30·1 year agoMaybe I’m mistaken, but I was under the impression hexbear was a bunch of libertarian left lgbtq people doing a bunch of shitposting.
Hard disagree like others. Going to an instance already takes you to “Local” and “Active”, which is literally the “Default Communities” because it’s what’s active on that instance. Quit trying to fit Lemmy into a Reddit box because it‘s not always necessary.
0·1 year agoYSK: This doesn’t work in DuckDuckGo because I just independently had the idea to try this a few days ago and returned no results. I didn’t think to try on Google. I believe DuckDuckGo is running on Microsoft Bing so it likely doesn’t work there either
I haven’t seen it posted yet so here’s another place for memes if that’s what you’re looking for: https://lemmy.world/c/memes@lemmy.ml
As a matter of fact, we actually already have an introduction topic: https://lemmy.world/post/177286
We do have a General community
Welcome to Lemmy.World General! This is a community for general discussion where you can get your bearings in the fediverse, discuss topics & ask questions that don’t seem to fit in any other community.
For server-specific announcements & questions, please see Lemmyworld, and if you’re really new to all this, check out the Newcomers community, but anything else? That’s what General’s for!
It was created because posts like yours were getting locked in /c/lemmyworld. If you haven’t already, post this in https://lemmy.world/c/newcommunities
6·1 year agoI also pay the $10 a year or whatever to be able to store TOTP codes in Bitwarden. I love having them copied to my clipboard automatically while logging in! (Yes I know it’s less secure. I don’t care lol. I don’t feel like getting locked out of everything because I broke my phone.)
I can’t wait! I it’s almost impossible to browse All on New with the influx of content forcing everything down nonstop
Feel free to go post somewhere there and mention me, and I’ll make you a mod since @ruud@lemmy.world wants a few mods per community from a post of his I saw elsewhere. I’m sure your icon and banner can still be useful. :)
Can we hold off on this for a bit while things settle? I personally posted a story about investor concerns over Reddit’s blackout here because of the high visibility and because beehaw.org was blocking instances. Lo and behold they have blocked us so I guess it was a good call even though their Tech community would have been a better fit. I could have also made a new community here I suppose, but again, there’s no eyes on that.
Isn’t lemmy.world literally like 15 days old? Let’s not be too quick to turn this into a Discord server with 50 channels and 10 users. There’s nothing wrong with piling everything in one place when there’s barely any content to speak of anyways.
EDIT: I just created a new community to repost these locked posts in order of most comments:
We need to walk before we can run. The Active filter has been stagnant so we’re barely crawling. Since /c/lemmyworld is now off limits, hopefully this will suffice for now.
So I guess the next question is do we now recreate beehaw communities that were popular and fragment the community, or do we make accounts on a smaller instance that has access to beehaw.org and lemmy.world? I’m not about to start logging in and out of multiple accounts because beehaw mods are getting butt hurt…
Oh that’s a great one as well! The graph bottom right tracking individual subs over time is super helpful
A new blackout tracker just dropped on the Discord: https://darktotal.com/
Beehaw banned 5 users from lemmy.world of like 20,000 and decided to defederate (block) the entire instance (server). You’re posting on a copy stored locally and only other lemmy.world users will see your comments.
