They’re so great!...

A great read+great magazine....

These candidates are really the only challengers to Biden in the primaries. All of their campaigns are extremely long shots (but not impossible in my opinion- if we decided we liked them more than Biden they could win). Let’s all have a civilized discussion/debate over them. Let’s try to not focus too heavy on their...

My personal favorites are steampunk, coming of age, and alternate history. How about you?

Anything new with beehaw and the lemmyverse? Are we still changing platforms? Things seem a lot more quiet now. Is that really a bad thing though? How are you?

I'm going to keep this short but I just fell down the rabbithole of crypto again and maybe it isn't as bad as I thought. Many of their ideas are very similar to the fediverse's. The idea of decentralized finance using a stablecoin sounds awesome to me. (though i'd much prefer to live in a world where money isn't needed) Maybe...

Here’s how it’ll work:...

Tangram is a browser for your pinned tabs. What this means is that I can put all my frequently visited websites in an app and have the ability to view them all with great ease. Before I was signing into everything each time I needed to check it but now I just switch to my workspace that has tangram open. I use mine for email,...

It seems like an actually good alternative to activitypub. What are your thoughts?

You compete against other real players to take over the world? You're a country and have to deal with logistics, military command, etc. It's just a map and a bunch of info, no characters. Basically risk but more complicated. I feel like i've seen this but I can't for the life of me find it.

Personally I find these both awesome ideas but I wonder about their scalability for larger communities. Does anyone have experience with them?...

This is the world I’ve been building for ttrpgs, fun, and eventually some stories for the past few months. Despite the constant procrastination it’s been a ton of fun. The is steampunkeque that is largely controlled by a trading group and culture called the Moche....

First off, I want to say that I love what the people here are doing but I do have a problem. There is never any conversation about posts. There are tons and tons of links shared but most of the time they're just articles that someone found interesting. I never see any true, meaningful discussion the way I do on reddit. Does...

I used to use obsidian but I found myself lacking motivation and becoming easily distracted when looking at the computer. Now, I do everything in a notebook. I find that my thoughts just flow far easier.

I have no idea why, don't ask :)...

I've been using lemmy for a little while now. I feel like one of the strongest attractions I still have to reddit is the ability to find posts via a search engine. Typically I can type in whatever question I have and add "reddit" and get a far better answer than whatever google will give. I understand that lemmy doesn't have...

Going to a few different servers to ask this as I think I’m going to create my own lemmy instance. Thanks! (love what you guys are doing here btw)

Is hexbear.net/chapo.chat federated? They seem very active but when I search for a community hosted there on a different server it doesn't show up?

Not just the recommended servers, apparently the whole thing as well. Any insight on why that is?

Mostly just curious, How come people can’t create their own communities here? What was the reasoning behind this? I’d love it if people could create their own communities and appeal to tiny niches. (i know I can find most of them via federation but some I can’t)
