  • It'd be cool, and fun, if all of Lemmy had a certain no-politics day.

  • Fediverse enshittification

  • Which monthly subscription service do you highly recommend and why?
  • What’s wrong with paying a subscription for a service that requires resources to continuously operate, such as email hosting?

  • What are your favorite statically typed, compiled, memory safe programming languages?

    One-thumb layout

    The current layout seems to be designed for optimal use with two thumbs. However, I use only one thumb when typing on mobile. Would it be possible to design a layout that's optimized for one thumb?
