https://lemmy.world/c/mildlyinteresting They are way ahead of you!

I hadn't even heard of Lemmy until a few days ago. Maybe it'll ride the momentum. End of the month there will probably be another influx, considering the reddit changes.

Let's hope so! Some of the communities are a bit empty still. Hopefully it'll change. :)

I certainly hope so. While I can't look into the future, I haven't been feeling the need to return to reddit at all, and I have hopes for Lemmy - if it continues to grow without devolving into some bot-infested, right-wing mess or something.

For now though, I'm definitely hopeful. The announcement of the Sync and Slide apps gives me a positive outlook here!

I agree. Been using Jerboa as well and it's nice and usable enough as a placeholder, but I'll be watching the Sync development. Can't wait!

Quite a slim majority, but stil great news! Hopefully it'll become more normalized and accepted a bit faster now.

Really happy for everyone finally being able to marry their partner. :)

I've used Slide too. It was super intuitive and I've never had any issues with it at all!

I have already uninstalled my reddit app from my phone. Now I just need to stop myself from automatically hitting my bookmarks on pc all the time. After years and years of reddit, it's hard to break the habit, lol.

I just checked if this was real (yes I do that a lot :D) and omg, it is! I had never heard of it.

The wiki showed another version of this, called Orchis simia:

Orchis simia, commonly known as the monkey orchid, is a greyish pink to reddish species of the genus Orchis. It gets its common name from its lobed lip which mimics the general shape of a monkey's body.[1]

Look how adorable!

I am rereading Malazan Book of the Fallen. Just started the fourth book, House of Chains.

The start of this book is the hardest for me to get through. The first couple of chapters are really boring to me and it's only after ::: spoiler spoiler Karsa is captured and Torvald Nom is introduced ::: that I start getting into the story. The rest of the book is phenomenal, of course.

Edit: damn, is there no other spoiler option that just greys out the words? Edit2: Geez, I only just now realize this is not c/books but c/sciencefiction. Sorry if this post doesn't belong here then, haha.

I believe instances can block other instances entirely, right? Or have I misunderstood that? This would mean none of those bots in there could ever post in our threads here. I'm sure there will be cooperation between the instances on this.

Besides, as long as you're using adblock, you're already limiting what they get from you anyway.

Purple broccoli? I didn't even know that was a thing! It looks like.. I don't know what it looks like, but I wouldn't have the balls to eat it.

Recommendations from people I know. Depending on who recommends them, I'll pick them up. I also search for lists on google or "favorite book" polls/list on reddit. As long as I like the premise I'll try it. If the first book in a series is a good read, I'll continue the series, if not then I won't. And of course books from authors I already knew when I liked their books.

Wow that's awesome news. Thank you!

Ah yes, I am familiar with that. Honestly, so beautiful!

I don't think so.

But there's also the Mlem app, I believe that one is for iOS.

I have 2 accounts, lemmy and kbin.

There are probably many people with multiple accounts, for example due to reasons like UI-preferences. I prefer the lemmy.world one.

Just fyi, there is an app already, I've been using it. It's called Jerboa. Not as good as Sync, but still very usable and it looks great (the dark version anyway :D).

He looks so relaxed in it too! My cats hate having to 'wear' anything.

Not as far as I know. But you could use something like PowerDeleteSuite to delete/edit all your comments before deleting your account. That's what I plan on doing. Just turn all my posts into Lemmy advertising, or just to tell Spez to go fuck himself. ;)

Edit, whoops, didn't see how old your post was. But hopefully it still helps!
