Naming Objects Is the Opposite of Thoughtless Consumption.

When we christen cars, instruments, and the other important possessions in our lives, we interact with them differently—and we may be more likely to appreciate them.

Awww, thats such a lovely idea
I agree. Do you name household objects?
Some of them. I was gonna upload a picture but its gotten VERY difficult to do on mobile with either of my instances :(
My snake plant is named fettuccine, my car is named hornet after the character from hollow knight, and my ebike will eventually be named midna when I finish the project 😅
Shame about the uploading of pictures, I would've loved to see that!
Fettucine is a great name for a snake plant.
Thanks ☺️ at some point I need to find a good solution for posting from mobile cause I wanna contribute to content but not being able to upload to lemmy directly has made that so much harder. I was just hoping to only need open source stuff and I think I'll probably need to use the official imgur website or app, cause the only open source one doesn't seem to be working for uploading pictures. We'll see
Have you tried making your photos smaller before uploading? At least my instance doesn't let me upload photos if they're over a megabyte and the error message (if there is any) about it is not very helpful.
Oh, thank you for reminding me, I had actually downloaded the image toolkit app from f-droid but hadn't played with it yet. The limit for my current server is 100kb unfortunately. And last I saw, lemmy.world (where my previous account is) wasn't allowing people to upload media because they were dealing with people abusing the functionality to post child pornography or something like that
The image quality isn't great, but at least compressed I can still post things through the jerboa app. I had totally forgot I'd already found a decent Foss app to do image compression
Never mind, even after compressing down to under 50kb, it still won't work and although the error message in jerboa is cut off, it looks to be saying the image is too large 🙃
