Lemma seems to be pretty smooth. And Arctic is being updated pretty frequently with nice features.
Sweet lord baby Jesus, I freaking turn off Show Read Posts for the feed. I didn’t realize it would hide my own posts. I feel like an idiot haha. Thank you
What app are you using? If you’re on iOS, I know the Voyager app allows for selection of filtering your search to Communities, Users, Posts, etc. and Lemma has a pretty good smart search that has found the communities I was looking for.
As far as I am aware, at least one user on your instance needs to be subscribed to a community on a different instance or at least specially searched for it to be searchable. In your case, if no one on lemmy.world is subscribed to or specifically searched for lemmy.radio/c/amateur_radio, you wouldn’t see it on a search from you lemmy.world account. Otherwise you’ll need to use a browser to find the community and seek it out on the web. Not super streamlined yet, I agree.
The only other more functional browser searches that I know of are:
I’m definitely going to start using Usonian. It seems the most natural. We probably can’t use Colombian because… you know…that’s a country already haha
I don’t see that as an option in the beta Voyager. Do you mean another app like Avelon?
Alright thanks for that. Sorry I did a ban without warning. Still figuring out the whole modding thing. I think I’ll need to get back to a desktop to see the unban option.
edit: Alright it shows on my end that you are now unbanned. Remember not to iron any four-leafed clovers (don't press your luck!). Happy dad-ing out there.
I’m sorry I didn’t list a reason for the ban. It was your comment that “I had married someone who stayed hot and wasn't a dominating bitch.” It didn’t seem appropriate for the community that has a pinned message about keeping the jokes appropriate enough for a kid.
It had nothing to do with any interaction on a different community. Ain’t nobody got time for that.
My God, I couldn’t remember what that scene that dialog was from. I finally found it and here you have it posted already. 😂 Golden scene
That’s a creative idea. I would read it. But if the goal is to reach and engage more people, then it needs to appeal to them. Like previously said, most people just don’t seem to care about privacy. So what do they care about? Getting likes/approval from others? Networking? Following popular channels? It’s kind of a catch 22, because celebrities won’t go to a platform without potential followers, and followers won’t either without someone to follow.
I can definitely relate on seeing the potential of the fediverse. I even told some of my friends, “This is the evolution of how the Internet is going to work. Isn’t that exciting??” And I’m usually met with blank stares.
I think the social media giants will slowly continue to become less relevant and there will be a natural shift toward alternatives. The more polished the alternatives become and the more the communities will prove valuable with actual human connections, the more they will slowly appeal to the masses. I think many people are sucked into the world of consumerism and cannot imagine an alternative.
Thanks for the suggestion. I am trying it out now and it seems pretty solid. I’m not sure the customization features are worth a subscription yet for me, but if they end up adding moderator functions, that might make it my new favorite.
I started with Mlem, then Memmy, tried Thunder, Limbo, the Voyager web app. The new Voyager app definitely seems the most polished. I will say though, a new discovery and my primary lately has been Avelon. It is buttery smooth and many options in the settings. One that was missing from Apollo was the “mark above as read” option for posts, which is present on this app.
Definitely give it a try: https://testflight.apple.com/join/IzB0ZiBO
I know back in the old country (blueit er redhat or whatever it was) there was a rule for waiting a year or some time before reposts were allowed again. Should there be something like that here?
On an unrelated note, I got my friend the other day with a zinger. They were recovering from surgery and said they were moving up their diet and the nurse was getting them a liquid menu. I said, “LIQUID MENU? HOW ARE YOU GONNA HOLD IT?” …I think I could hear eyes rolled over the phone.
That makes sense. Thanks, I wasn’t aware of that before
That’s what I kind of assumed too, but everything appears to be working
Has anyone else tried finding a lemmy.world community on lemmyverse.net? I don’t see any results for known communities that exist. I’m not sure if that is intentional or overlooked or what. The last I checked, that search was still being used to find communities that maybe haven’t been connected yet to a user’s home instance.
Your submission in "{{post.title}}" was removed for That is pretty funny. This joke would be great for c/unclejokes, but the suggestion of an erection probably shouldn’t go in c/dadjokes. .
No problem. As much as I hate having to rely on G products, the image search usually finds things best
I tried a lemmy.world account and lemm.ee account, each with the username and then the email. The accounts work fine on the Voyager web app, just not the native iOS app.
Please see the updated sidebar. Do not post external links to websites such as Facebook and Instagram.
of when I handed my dad his 60th birthday card.
He told me, “You know one would have been enough.”
Does anyone know of a Fediverse alternative for Snapchat?
I know of Friendica, but it looks more like a Facebook. Not a Fediverse option, but so far Signal’s stories look to be the closest option I can find. Any input is appreciated.
I know customization comes after functionality on the priority list, but I would love a few color options in the Appearance settings to replace the blue. Purple, orange, and turquoise would be at the top of my list.
I prefer a dark background anyway, so the background would be less of a worry, but a graphite grey and beige would be nice eventually too.
Thanks to everyone that is working on this.
I just updated the sidebar. As a rule of thumb, if you cannot tell this joke to a 5-year-old, you should probably post it to the new community !unclejokes@lemmy.world
One community I mod is primarily for sharing images. I initially required uploading to services like Imgur or PostImages and post the link to Lemmy, to decrease hosting demand, but it’s much easier to simply upload it to Lemmy. Does it make sense to re-require uploading elsewhere? I don’t want to contribute to hosting overload, but I’d like an easy user experience.
@ruud@lemmy.world, if you can weigh in, I would appreciate it too.

It is listed as “true black” but I don’t actually have an OLED phone, so correct me if it is not OLED true black.
I know everyone may be interacting with Lemmy in different ways, but the sidebar mentions the guidelines for the community. From the limited feedback I got, crediting the artists was valued, so I would like to continue that.
I know it is not as convenient to search, but the artist or source took the time to create or capture the image you are enjoying, so we can take 60 seconds to search for their name.
If you run it through Google Images or any other image search and cannot find an artist or source website, you can simply put “artist not found” or something to that extent.
Please let me know if these seems unreasonable or you have a different suggestion. Like many of you folks, I’m adapting the best I can to develop the community environment.

I want to help make this Lemmy community the way you all want it to be. Please tell me what you think:
Do you want certain rules more enforced? Do you want resolution in the title? Do you care about the source/artist? Would you rather just upload the image to Lemmy in the post and see if we soak up too much hosting space? What do you guys think of having a day we share whole albums? What about a weekly challenge to post wallpapers using a random word generator to give us a two-word theme?
