  • In all that is wrong with recycling to begin with, do I even need to put cardboard and paper into recycling; or does it just break down easily in all the garbage?

  • That was my take away with what they were saying in a broad sense - making more and more and more paper is unsustainable not matter what. Reforestation is still hard on the creatures dependent on the original environment...monoculture destroys economies (only for poor people, obviously) - in the end, no matter what, creating new paper products on a whim is selfish, greedy and avoidable

  • Thank you - I knew there would be more pieces to investigate but I wasn't sure what questions to ask - based on the price ($.07 each) I thought they might be a little too good to be true....I'll see if they still hold up!

  • Is there any evidence that Reddit has suffered at all from the exodus to Lemmy?

  • I had finally joined Twitter to see if there was anymore political people to find out about. Something like a week later Musk bought it and I deleted it.

    I'm not even this huge like omg I hate musk. I don't think I even have musk related comments. I just don't trust big loud billionaires. Especially ones that made big deals about being too broke to help out with internt for Ukraine much longer while flying to moons and buying soapboxes and just generally being shitty

  • I go back for /nosleep all the time - the quality of the rest of the site has frankly dropped drastically.

    People are still rioting so to speak, content just seems weak - as in I haven't been on popular really since I joined lemmy, certainly not in weeks. Who can really trust those that didn't care to be all that interesting?

    The politics page is boring. The headlines say nothing. Seriously - maybe subtle now, but clear enough for a good chunk. At the very least, this didn't just go away

  • Oh for sure, anti-consumption is always important to remind. The packaging is out of control...and what paper does in terms of pollution - well I've simply had to come to terms I can't control these garbage bags at the top, I can only control myself and do my best.

    One thing I have found that I love is land-fill biodegradable bags for my customers. Paper, as meantioned, makes me wary, so when I found these I was pretty happy. They seem legit and they're inexpensive

  • I never even considered that in the first place, so thanks for speaking up anyway:)

    I wonder if that has anything to do with the methane torches that burn from the landfills

  • YSK: there's a type of common hallucination (often scary) that happens shortly after waking up. You can move and talk while seeing it and it can last between a few seconds up to a minute

  • Two words hold a lot of weight these days it seems... Fake News

    If need be, God need not die, it's all just Fake News. Heck one day it might even just disappear.

  • Is it a good idea to enable "show bot accounts" on lemmy?

    Jump

  • It's right under "bot account" on my screen....I'm on the desktop site though (thru my phone but still)

  • Is it a good idea to enable "show bot accounts" on lemmy?

    Jump

  • Yep, just found it the moment I realized it was a thing in this thread - go to your account settings and you'll find an option to unselect bot accounts

    I wish there was a way to just mark bot accounts...like finding out it's a bot doing most the posting in TIL...wtf is that? If the community needs a bot to grow it, perhaps it's not an important community on Lemmy at this time? Perhaps there's another sub that's going to grow more organically? In which we will infact learn something today?

    Just want bot-less communities (other than fun/helpful ones that aren't Grond) that aren't headed by greed. Jfc.

  • People of Lemmy, what’s your horror story?

    Jump

  • I have two! I'll stick with the quick gross one for now.

    I work on a farm and typically walk around barefoot - it's just easier to get around in general. So I'm in our greenhouse dedicated to tomatoes. It's pretty big, about a hundred feet long and fifty feet wide, and it's late July so this thing is just overgrown with huge tomato plants. But we're a fairly small operation so while there are many plants - about 700 - they aren't exactly strung up neatly. Just a veritable jungle of leaves, branches, green, ripe and rotten tomatoes everywhere. Including the floor.

    So I'm in there pussyfooting and tip-toeing through openings of plants trying not to smoosh plants - or significantly worse yet step square into a rotten tomato - when it happens.

    SQUISHHHHH

    "BLECH!" I spit out recoiling my foot, scrunching my face and looking down, my disgust morphing to horror. Oh, if only I had stepped on a tomato and not a bloated, dead rat.

  • Is Lemmy THE reddit alternative for you? Are you thinking about moving somewhere else?

  • Brooooooooooooooo

    Thank you. I've been letting the instance concept just kind of float by undetected figuring I didn't need to understand it to navigate it I suppose. But I much prefer to understand :) thanks for the concise wording
