  • If you've been considering deleting your social media accounts, now is probably an excellent time.

  • What? Because of the elections? I feel like it's always been an excellent time to delete social media accounts haha

  • How do you write a lengthy, informative comment/post?

    Jump

  • Not the best? I like high effort posts and comments...

  • What news sources do you follow that offer different political perspectives from your own?

    Jump

  • I used to follow /r/Canadianhousing2 on reddit. Very right wing, conservative, simplistic views on the housing crisis in Canada. I realized eventually it was a cesspool of hate and racism and stopped.

  • Some setup notes for self-hosting a Lemmy instance

    Jump

  • Funny enough I never used Lemmy without a private instance, so I wouldn't know!

  • Removed

    Underrated benefit of lemmy is like minded people will tend to join the same instances and if I don't want to interact with those groups I can just filter the whole instance.

  • I think it attracts a certain type of person to Lemmy in the first place; someone who would have probably used the original Reddit back in the day

  • I'm doing my part!

  • That's awesome! I'm glad it mostly all works for you. I was looking for an OS for a TV-gaming setup sort of thing and it might be Bazzite now. I use Lutris/Wine for most of my games instead of Steam, I find it easier to troubleshoot. Also lol @ so many games with "2" in them haha.

  • I'm doing my part!

  • Hmm, I've never tried Bazzite. Have you tried Ubuntu/can you offer a comparison to it? I play only on Ubuntu and games compatibility is like 80% hit and 20% miss.

  • What uses less power for a mouse, USB dongle or Bluetooth?

  • Less power on the side of the host computer or the mouse?

  • Super-lightweight operating system boots off a 1.44MB floppy disk — KolibriOS lets you do simple tasks and even play games on your legacy PC

  • Idea: install this on some old laptop/tablet or something. Open Doom. Enjoy a retro wallpaper as Doom plays itself.

  • In addition to what everyone else has said in the comments, I find that the posts on Lemmy are far more creative. It's akin to browsing people's blogs vs Medium articles.

  • Do any non-corpos actually like AI slop?

    Jump

  • I ask it a lot of technical questions that are broad and non-specific. It helps to quickly get a gauge on what is the correct way to implement something.

  • How do adults find happiness in life?

    Jump

  • Motorcycles. No kids. Enough sleep. A good partner. Music. Videogames. Good friends (who know each other). Lots of projects.

  • How do adults find happiness in life?

    Jump

  • I find happiness getting lost in projects

    I relate to this on a visceral level

  • PSA: Test Your Server SSH Access

    Jump

  • Yeah that sounds pretty bad. Is there a quick way to disable ssh keys to test?
