I created https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/pkms but I honestly don’t know what I’m doing yet 😆

I think not because federation would make it easy to mirror.

Yeah I think they’re going to have to be more specific. I tried reading the first 1k bytes with Python and I don’t know what I’m supposed to be looking for.

He’s the only person I’ve blocked. I went on the other day and saw a tweet was hidden, clicked to view it, and when I saw it was him, I immediately closed the tab. Twitter is really good at providing me content that makes me want to leave 😆

Yeah, this is why I would prefer to remain on Lemmy unless there’s literally no content, which doesn’t look like it’s going to be an issue :)

• No IPO

I didn’t specify and haven’t heard anything back at all either.

Thanks! Interesting, it didn’t work when I first tried it, but trying again after refreshing the page and specifying “Communities” in the search it worked as expected.

What’s the… I’m not sure of the name of the !community@instant.blah is called. But how can I join your community? :)

Personal preference 🤷

If I had known Lemmy existed I would have been hear a couple years ago, but thanks to spez I’m here today!

The problem is that even though you and me are ok with not having an app, most people need an app 🤷

It’s not a 404 anymore and I was able to subscribe like expected 🤷 I’m on lemmy.blahaj.zone

I get a 404 from that link, and the /c/things above aren’t links for me, still learning Lemmy…

Hi, thanks! I’ve seen occasional Slack channels that are full of animated reactions and gifs, but Discord is so, so much worse.

I love forums because it’s hard to miss something. It’s easy to ignore subforums or mark them as read, and there’s no realtime pressure. With Discord, I feel more likely to miss than catch anything. I’ve had notification badges that after 30 minutes I still couldn’t figure out how to make go away. There’s a mode to disable animations, but you can’t see them again without disabling the mode (why not a button for each gif??). I tried joining a queer Discord but everyone’s pronouns are a different font in a different color in a different size, all the time, with no way for me to simply the UI on my end. It really seems to me like it’s only popular because of mobile apps.

Thanks for making this post! I (30NB) was diagnosed with cPSTD a little over a year ago and just this week my therapist is referring me for ASD screening. I find Discord utterly overwhelming and I like the reddit/lemmy kind of forum stuff over twitter/mastodon.

I’m looking forward to lemmy making progress! I’m a SWE and I wish I could contribute but I’m focusing on EMDR and general trauma processing right now 😕
