They have a much bigger catalogue outside of English, I believe

!diy@beehaw.org !diy@slrpnk.net !diy@lemmy.ml etc.

Music: I have a few CDs that are in need of a CD player and also have Jellyfin (no server, only local) to listen to my downloaded music on my TV (which mostly comes from Bandcamp). For my phone, I have the Bandcamp app, it’s basic but it does what I need from it.

Podcasts: via Podcast Addict on my phone (unfortunately no browser version, but that’s gotten less important with the years as I spend less time on my computer and the time I do spend requires enough focus that I don’t listen to podcasts), during sports sessions (podcast for warmup & cooldown, audiobook for the session itself), commutes, walking, cleaning & cooking.

You should post here: !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

This is not a technical support community.

(but also i’ve had the same issue since the last lemmy update, i suppose a bug made its way in there.)

Sounds like an issue with Jerboa more than with Lemmy tbh if you can’t properly block a community. Log in to the website and block the community there.

My suggestion would be to back it up on the Internet archive manually once in a while.

The men around them.

I work in a tech role for a big tech company, so at first glance, not much. I like to believe that I’m good at planning stuff and figuring out how many hours by how many people it should take, which is a good skill for all kinds of issues.

As said above, likes are virtually useless. They’re more like “noticeable bookmarks”. Mastodon etiquette is to boost rather than like, if you enjoy a toot, and that’s also how it was when the Twitter timeline was chronological and didn’t include likes, a very long time ago.

The good: we didn’t have people constantly asking the same basic questions instead of opening the support/chat community and seeing that 4 other people had made the same post the same day.

The bad: we didn’t have people.

This question has been asked several times a day for the past week and I’d recommend using the search feature for the many answers that have already been posted.

The Wire

Being LGBTQ+, or not white, or not a man, or disabled.

I work in the capital of my country because there are more jobs there, but I don’t like big cities. I bought an apartment in my hometown, which is where I want to spend the rest of my life. I was told at the time of buying that I would be able to work fully remotely starting June, but now they say February and I’m moving next week, so either I’ll find a new job or they’ll make it work.

A fan with a damp (cold) cloth on it.

I bought an apartment 600kms away from my job two months ago.

I’ll report back on how it turned out when I move there and find out whether they decide to fire me.

That’s a good point, thanks for adding some nuance :)

Well:

• I’m annoyed at calling people who dislike an app and choose another website “refugees”
• I’m happy that we’re going to have more activity
• I hope more instances will be built and maintained, because I don’t think the large number of new members can be moderated effectively if they keep flocking to the same handful of instances
• When in doubt, I hope moderators will be too strict rather than not enough, especially in the beginning to make sure the behavioural expectations are very clear

That would be amazing!
