What is your all time favourite movie?
  • I have to say, it took me a few mins to mentally get over the fact that these characters I’ve watched so many times before were now singing. Once I got over that, it was a blast for me.

  • What is your all time favourite movie?
  • It would have to be Back to the Future. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve rewatched those movies. I also just saw the broadway musical version of it as well. If I had to choose between the three, then it would have to be the second one. There is so much iconic imagery from those movies, and I loved getting to see parts of the first from from different POVs. It has a great mix of many things that people can enjoy.

  • /kbin Issues
  • My subscribed looks alright for the most part (even though I am getting stuff I did not subscribe to), but I also want to keep discovering new magazines/communities, so I go to “All” a lot. You may be describing what I see though in terms of how kbin sorts through content on All. It just makes Kbin look really empty to me compared to Lemmy. It’s rare that I will see something with hundreds of comments on my front All page.

  • /kbin Issues
  • Is it better for you now? I’m still in the same boat. My front page is full is mostly single digit comment stuff from Kbin. If I go to a lemmy app though, I will see more popular Kbin content on their front page than I am seeing while logged onto Kbin.

  • Okay, how do I block all this meme stuff?
  • While yes, you can block them like people have said (which I do) a new place pops up everyday. It’s like whack a mole. I would love to have some kind of filter that automatically blocks any magazine/community with the word “meme” in it. I would like to not always stay on subscribed so I can see more content and not create and echo chamber for myself.

  • [Rant] Completely burned out
  • I’m not sure how helpful this will be. But the closest person to me also has Austin. It also took them longer than the standard time to finish a bachelor’s degree in a science major. They even had to take a semester off due to similar issues. They ended up resorting to shop lifting, because they couldn’t handle having, going to school at the same time and family restrictions. What helped them in the end was a change in the people they were hanging around and eventually moving. Years later they now own their own business working 1 on 1 with people in an environment they control. Out of the people on my life they make some of the most money. The best advice I see in this thread is to take a break, focus on you and figure out what works best. The industry this person got a major in usually follows a specific path, but they ended up carving out their own little space of what they wanted to do.

  • Is there a way to subscribe to all communities with the same name?
  • I would love a feature like this, but for the opposite, so I can automatically block magazines/communities that have specific words

  • Can we settle this: how many holes does a straw have?
  • By the logic of most of the comments in here, does this mean most people are wrong when they say they are digging a hole???

  • Fediverse won't replace Reddit as long as Lemmy is the main platform being promoted
  • Agreed. I am very confused by most of these types of comments. “Why isn’t this newer thing with a smaller user base as robust and efficient as a 20yr old platform?” Things take time. Not to mention it SHOULD also take time, since these instances would not be able to hold the amount of users Reddit has. I’m sure many people complained about Reddit when they jumped from Digg.

  • Dystopian Reddit runs on fake content (must read)
  • This reminds me of an episode from the show Electric Dreams, on Amazon Prime.

  • Is anyone using Google search less than before?
  • Google search has been going down gradually year by year for the last decade for me. My searches have now devolved to just having google search Reddit, like most people now. I recently started using Brave and I liked that it was recapping information for me. DuckDuckGo has been hit or Miss. I’ve started seeing people me toon SearX, which I need to try.

    I wish there were a search engine that prioritized searching through places like Reddit, stack exchange, Quora, etc. vs the random clickbait websites trying to sell Amazon links.

  • How to block a domain
  • Blocking the feddit.de domain does nothing for me. I get daily new stuff from there on my feed. Blocking the individual magazines does help, but it’s now just become a part of my daily routine to block them.

  • Can I block posts about Reddit?
  • It will die down soon, once the main migration finishes.

  • Awkwardturtle The banned 1000 sub mod Talks about the admins after Ban and got a message "let all burn to the ground"
  • From what I’ve learned in the last week, it seems like they abused their mod powers in some of the subs they were on. Someone at Reddit probably used all the chaos to get rid of them now, when many people had been complaining about them for a long time.

  • What should individual communities on Lemmy be called?
  • Oh I would much prefer bins over magazine. That is a great idea.
