Gotta actually link things if you want people to find them, my friend! 😉

For the Mastodon users among us, obligatory plug https://streetpass.social

Whining and whinging are definitely not the same thing, but I’m struggling to articulate why. Just something British (and I guess Australian, judging by this thread) folks grow up with and intuitively understand.

And from lemmy.world 👋

Truly you are a master of disguise

Remember to make your intro post! Tag it with #introduction plus the tags for whatever else you’re into. Let the people come to you! 😄

I think their point is, if you’re correct and this is to protect people from unexpected NSFW content, viewing through the app would still just expose them to the unexpected NSFW content anyway.

Not to be harsh, but you’ve asked this question a few times in different ways over the last few weeks. My suggestion and advice is, download Godot and find a tutorial and give it a try. You can’t find out whether you’ll enjoy something by reading about it, only by doing it.

Last time I had this problem the thread was started by someone on Kbin. This time it was someone on Mastodon. I’m wondering if there’s some weirdness between community settings and external posts, where certain combos just don’t quite work right.

I’ve had the same problem trying to search for other smallish communities from Mastodon (although not all, can’t actually figure out the pattern just yet).

What I’ve found is that after searching for them (format @simpleliving@lemmy.ml) and getting no results, if I come back a few hours later and searching again they then do seem to show up? Almost like Mastodon just has a really long delay for pulling in new communities.

It’s not much immediate help but it might be worth checking again in a bit.

Edit: for anyone else confused, this seems to be one of those threads that only lets you reply if you explicitly select a language

Given that one of those resignations talks about Beehaw like it’s a separate platform entirely, I think it’s just some good old fashioned misunderstanding. Looks like they’ve set up separate user accounts on Lemmy and Kbin too.

That’s the number of subscribers from your instance, not the total. Weird, I know.

There’s also the issue that during the first big influx, Kbin turned off federation while the dev tried to fix things up. It was off for days, so any fledgling magazines there couldn’t take advantage of Lemmy traffic, we couldn’t sub to them and made our own communities instead, and by the time they turned federation back on a lot of Lemmy communities were already pretty established as “the main one”.

We’ve been doing one called CityStrides that similarly has us exploring places we’ve never set foot before in our town. There are some issues with the data it uses from Open Street Map on occasion so the community are pretty good about getting things fixed up on the OSM side so they can get their completions on the CS side.

We’ve got a full-size arcade cabinet in our kitchen. Was a DIY passion project of my husband’s before we met, and it was fun for a while because the various niblings would play with it when they came round for the big family breakfasts we used to do. Sometimes if I was alone in the house I’d leave it on demo mode just to have some comforting background noise.

Niblings grew up, I got used to the quiet of a small town, and I don’t think it’s even been turned on in about five years because we’ve also got way more portable options 😅

If you understand the code and are able to adapt it to for your needs it’s no different to copy pasting from other sources, imo. It’s just a time saver.

If you get to the point where you’re blindly trusting it with no ability to understand what it’s doing, then you have a problem. But that applied to Stack Overflow too.

There’s a lot of truth to this. My life is currently not “simple” as such but it’s also not something I feel the need to run away from, and as the OP said it’s all a matter of prioritising.

I’m a big fan of knowing your core values, precisely because it helps to you make these decisions and prioritise what’s actually important to you versus what you wish was important to you.

My most important value, for example is freedom. I sometimes wish it was something that would lead me to a stable well-paid career, but it’s not. So I’m self-employed and definitely not rich, but much much happier.

Next up is creativity, so as well as going down a creative path for self-employment I also make sure to schedule in plenty of time to just…creatively play. Crafts, drawing, generally making a mess, etc etc.

TLDR work out your core values and everything follows from that.

Probably Marble Madness. The NES version was half my childhood and I love to seek out the arcade version at retro gaming expos, although my wrists are really not up to all that frantic trackballing these days.

(This thread is only allowing people to comment if they explicitly set a language from the dropdown. Not sure if that’s a setting OP has chosen or what, but PSA for anyone else getting the spinning wheel of death)
