  • 1 occasionally the user base freaks the fuck out and starts spamming the same thing, like this. I don’t like Nazis, but that also means I don’t want literally everything on my funny picture site to be about keeping them out. 2 increasingly all the popular stuff isn’t memes at all, but shitting on trump and musk.

    Doesnt sound all that different from here especially on #1, case in point beans, jeans and more recently corn for some reason









  • When Twitter went downhill, we got bluesky and mastodon. Bluesky works as a decent Twitter replacement and Mastodon is smaller and more fediverse-focused. Lemmy and Piefed are alternatives to Reddit but I wouldnt really say that Lemmy fully replaces Reddits functionality in terms of niche subs. That’s why I’ve always been in favor of explosive growth here with each Reddit exodus, to have a forum within an order of magnitude or two of the size of Reddit to properly become a replacement.






  • So I created an account over on piefed.social and was browsing by /all and saw some communities I have no interest in ever seeing. I navigate through to the community and there’s no “block community” function? How am I to browse by /all as is my wont, without seeing furry porn? Nothing wrong with it but it’s just not my jam.

    Honestly /all is the best way to find new active communities to join and it’s worked here at Lemmy just fine. Or maybe I missed the button on piefed, or devs are adding it as you read this.




  • Not sure if this is true but someone once told me that using hydrogen peroxide on wounds of a certain size might lead to a bubble of gas appearing in the bloodstream, which would be undesirable. I dunno, I rinse my mouth with diluted h2o2 occasionally and might put it on a small scrape but I’m a little leery after hearing that. Also the “cauterizing” effect seems like it might slow healing or cause a more notable scar.
