Nobody on Lemmy is under the age of 30.

Although I might feel 30 sometimes, I’ll have you know I’m a ripe 28 & ¾

If I don’t get a text or voice-mail right after the missed call, that’s how I know it was a scammer. If someone really wants to contact me they’ll try option B

I think the egg is supposed to be boiled, but the rest looks great

What a champ. Halfway through, I was sure he’d end up in a doctor’s office getting a minor emergency surgery.

In a past thread on this topic, I’ve seen a few indie artists say that they benefit because Spotify amplifies their audience. They make crap on the streams, but a larger audience base is worth the trade-off since they’ll be able to sell more concert tickets and merchandise.

Thank you. The moment I saw it, I knew it would be appreciated in this shitposting community.

Imo it feels like the reddit migration has died down, but a good chunk the users that have stuck around are actually engaged in their communities. I’ve been seeing more instances created too, which is cool because it means people are hosting their own.

More recently I’ve noticed that Sync actually plays embedded videos now, which is probably the best update since its release. It’s feeling a lot more user-friendly and that should help it keep growing organically.

The only times I use reddit anymore is browsing with old.reddit a couple times a week. I don’t even login to that site now because I don’t engage with anything, I just check the news and stuff then come back to Lemmy.

This is effectively making him pay for it, quite literally, for the rest of his life. Imo that sounds like a more severe punishment than if he were actually rich enough to pay all at once and just end it early.

I don’t see how this could have even gone right. Wtf was he trying to do?

You can put them in a microwave and watch cool designs appear as you destroy them. I remember my siblings and I used to do this with old demo discs that were destined for the trash anyway.

Rent goes up? Looks like I need to figure out what necessities can be put off.

Whenever I hear people say “money can’t buy happiness,” I think they’re forgetting that sometimes happiness is just having all your needs met.

Out of all the most prominent streaming services, Hulu has the most content I’d actually watch. Unfortunately, they still show ads in their cheaper paid subscription, which is a deal-breaker for me.

I usually see them while browsing Imgur

Your concerns are valid. That’s something to be expected as the platform grows, but it’s alarming nonetheless.

I like to use old.reddit when I browse it now. I saw others mention it, and after giving it a try, I can see why people like it more than the ‘updated’ reddit.
