Risa is already here! I wish I knew how to link other communities 😅

Yea, I usually tell people to watch this episode then jump to season 3. If they love the show they’ll obviously go back to season 1 out of a curiosity

Hope your day improves. Never a good time for a flat tire

A thread is a Reddit equivalent and a microblog is a Twitter equivalent. So it really depends if you’re trying to start a discussion or just want to put something out there in my opinion

Yea, I’ve been enjoying Bookwyrm. Crazy how the fediverse is capable of providing everything. We just need more people willing to donate interested

Same. If I wasn’t still getting Hulu for free I’d be out

I’d recommend an RSS Reader. For example if you use Inoreader and subscribe to “tech” you’ll get a folder of a bunch of popular tech websites. Obviously you should get them yourselves too. But RSS is a great way to get a lot of news quickly and see consensus

This was my thought. First major outlet I’ve seen to even acknowledge Lemmy/Kbin…even if it’s to say they suck 😂

Check out Bookwrym. I’m currently maintaining that and Goodreads, but can’t wait until I can drop Goodreads

It seems like there’s going to be a super premium tier for power users to cover that cost

That’s correct. Kbin offers both an ability to “toot” or an ability to create topical threads through its magazines

Mlem is basically Apollo for Lemmy. I’m enjoying Memmy too. Honestly the only value Reddit has is the user base. The diversity of apps and the lack of corporate ownership already make this space far more exciting than Reddit

I don’t think Reddit is going anywhere. It has too much market share. Everyone keeps predicting the death of Twitter and yet it’s still going despite letting go a large part of its workforce. I don’t see Reddit being as incompetently run in comparison

Look into the about page of whatever instance you signed up for. Most of them list the ways to offer support there through monthly Patreon’s or whatever

It’s also a good idea to throw a little money towards the project if you can. Some people are finding Lemmy a little controversial and throwing money at Kbin while using it hoping kbin can get up to speed quickly.

But if you can only support one your insurance admin is more important

I’m still checking Reddit. I think once Apollo goes my usage will really drop, but unfortunately Reddit was the one social media I really enjoyed and as much as I’m liking Lemmy/Kbin the communities just aren’t here yet. I hope that changes

If you want the most “universally enjoyed” I’d say start with TNG season 2. Then once you’re finished maybe check out DS9

Good to see this place is going to be about as conspiratorial r/privacy 😬

I would either use a hacked Switch, or a Steam Deck. What about the Deck isn’t selling you? It’s a wonderful emulation machine, although definitely a bit pricey if that’s going to be the majority of your usage

First go with an anti-inflammatory for a few days. But you may want to try PT. If insurance doesn’t cover it you can find a lot of videos on YouTube by PTs to address back pain

Don’t understand how people can still use Reddit and ignore all the ickiness.
