Hello, all! Longtime lurker on Reddit and now on Lemmy. I’ve tried looking into getting out of the US as things aren’t looking too great as I’m sure many of you know, but wanted some tips from those of us who have gotten out. Where did you decide to move to, and what were the things you looked at when deciding to move...
I'm a white male living in Alabama, and I'm very sorry to hear of this. I'm really sorry and I promise you I'm doing my best to vote in a way that makes life better for you (far above and beyond the current climate). You're all loved.
This has already been happening. I can't count the times I'm told to use Google Chrome or Firefox because Safari isn't supported. This isn't a new thing.
I'm with you. I'd so much prefer to use Safari. Safari 17 is so, so much better than prior releases. But the amount of stupid compatibility problems with sites that keep cropping up drives me nuts.
I can't believe no one else has pointed out the little icon that is added to filenames on the desktop. If you drag an attachment out of Mail, it will add a little email icon to the file name. You can click on the email icon as part of the filename and it will shortcut back to the mail message that has the attachment.
Has anyone done some testing/validation to see if we should be using Chrome's battery/power management settings or Arc is doing their own thing? I noticed the settings from Chrome are disabled.
I love Arc and loved the new features and approach they've introduced. It's pretty solid. But I do wonder, for the last few releases, why they're so infatuated with adding features and ignoring obvious bugs....
I’d like to settle on a distro, but none of them seem to click for me. I want stability more than anything, but I also value having the latest updates (I know, kind of incompatible)....
I do, but as more people join I’m also feeling a little republican - i got my spot and this is good; everyone on the outside can go fuck off now. I don’t want it to get so big that it’s what we left. No intended disrespect or lack of acknowledgment to those who were here before.
I like the fediverse. It reminds me of the old school Internet days - IRC, usenet, etc., before all the corporate tech bros muscled in. I'd prefer for it to stick, but I have some fears about it. I hope everything will be ok.
I do feel a little lost looking for my old Reddit communities, but I keep hoping we'll just cross paths again. For now, I'm just sitting back and enjoying the firehose.
The movement reminds me of the old school BBS days. People devoted their computers and mountains of phone bills to provide a place for people to gather and communicate, play some games, etc. etc. What's old is new again. It's actually a pretty good feeling, and the correct response to capitalists run amok.

Should we be using the Chrome power management settings?

Well, it's finally gone.
Boost for Reddit is finally down. Can’t wait for Boost for Lemmy to launch. So far I’ve enjoyed my time here. Thanks for keeping it going everyone.
Do you find that you're on the fed more than you were on r/ just because you're really really excited to watch your favorite communities become more active?
