Are neurodivergent people more attracted to alternative spaces like this one?
  • Wanting to use Lemmy (or knowing about it at all) is pretty much a symptom of us thinking about the platforms we use, not just their content, which we tend to do much more because we usually dive deeper into subjects than the average neurotypical person. Plus, a lot of autistic people tend to have stronger moral principles since we tend to see things more black and white.

    There’s also the fact that in smaller communities, minorities tend to feel safer. The chances of seeing people being openly ableist here is almost none compared to Reddit for example

  • I used to blindly believe that but man, it’s just impossible sometimes. And I started thinking about how we don’t hold a lot of other industries to the same standards. It’s tough to think that the same person who can’t fill a basic online form is allowed to operate guns or heavy killer machines (cars) daily.

  • I’ve watched the first episode and while it’s definitely not a contender for best show of the year, it’s not bad… it’s a feel-good show with some jokes here and there, perfect for when you want to wind down a bit and don’t want anything too serious or that demands too much attention

  • “Apple Music launches a Discovery Station to help you find new songs”
  • Yeah, the “Love” only affects future recommendations and you can’t see songs you’ve loved (except if they’re on your Library and you use the Mac app). I lost a really great song that I just Loved instead of adding to library and could never find it again :(

  • Is there a way to manually choose the app language?

    I’ve been loving Memmy so far, but recent versions have brought the Brazilian Portuguese translation and my app has automatically changed to that. However I cannot find a way to revert it back to English!

    I’ve tried looking in the app settings and also on the iPhone settings app, but no luck. My account on Lemmy is set to English, but my phone language is set to Brazilian Portuguese. I’m using the App Store version.

    As for the reason I prefer English: 100% of the content I see here is in English, so having the UI in a different language makes my head have to constantly switch between both which can get tiring. Not to mention there’s a ton of overflowing text issues as it’s understandably not been tested as much.

    Thanks!
