Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

I’d like there to be a balance. The memes are a good way to get more eyes in the community initially, but I’d like to slowly switch over to focus more on music as the community grows. Right now, I’ve got a featured song of the day, we just finished making an introductory folk punk playlist, and we’re getting started on a deep cuts list.

Me too! I got her after the bank I was working at got robbed. I had just moved out on my own and the house was way too quiet. I’ve had her for almost three years now and I’m convinced adopting her was the best decision I’ve made in that time period 💜

Callie the calico kitty :)

It does do that. I was thinning a little on top before I started and now I’ve got luscious locks!

Sorry! Still getting used to the Threadiverse. I’ll be sure to remember to do it in the future, thank you.

You should totally join us! Tomorrow we’ll be making a beginner playlist to introduce newcomers to the genre. We would love more input :)

I remember the first Voat exodus. It became a Nazi shithole soooo fast. Glad it’s gone now.

Everyone here is either a Linux user, Trekkie, or both.

Awww, thanks 💜

I was really surprised when I saw that flairs weren’t widely adopted yet. They’re super useful for community filtering.

ATProto is what Bluesky is built on, right? How does it differ from Activity Pub? Are there difficulties with bridging the two protocols?

Would you mind elaborating on the Peertube instance? How does it integrate/what benefits are there to integration?

Gender crises are some of the worst experiences ever. They’re especially difficult when you’re in an environment where you can’t talk to loved ones about it.

It makes me very happy to see how trans-friendly Lemmy has remained even while the rest of the Internet caters to bigots.

Heck yeah! I’ve been trying to actively make the switch too. Getting away from big-tech algorithmically-driven social media platforms feels very nice. I do miss a few of the communities I was a part of that don’t have a counterpart here, but I’ll get used to it eventually.

The community here is much nicer than reddit currently is. It feels more tight-knit. Almost like reddit was twelve or thirteen years ago.
