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.

Over the past year, couldn’t be bothered to scroll more than that :)

The men around them.

Very reminiscent of the 2005 riots that happened for 2-3 weeks after the death of two young boys who had been chased by the police without reason in eerily similar fashion on the same religious holiday: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2005_French_riots

Communities don’t need to have a single specific language and being able to share in our own language in a general community, especially outside of English, would be amazing. I know I’ve posted some content to book-related communities in French and was glad not to post to an empty French community, and I got some interaction on this.

Agree with Flaky that we really need a default language choice to not have to set it up every time, though.

I’m committed to open source (or at the very least indie dev) more than to a single platform.

Well the good news if that with the literal hundred plums you have, you can afford to “waste” plums until you figure out how to make proper jam! :)

That’s an excellent question and I’m glad you raised it. I need to care more about accessibility and learn more about security in general :)

Not a moderator here, but in general, what annoyed me the most was people breaching the very first rule in the pinned post / FAQ / welcome post / etc.

Honeypots - ask a very easy question, but make it hidden on the website so that human users won’t see it and bots will answer it.

They shouldn’t. They should have a blog and share the link here and on Mastodon. Social media is not the right place for long-form content.

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.

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

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

Do you federate with Beehaw? I have a 404 every time I look for a blahaj.zone community from Beehaw :(
