For us all get anything off our chest, no matter how small.

It's cathartic!

What's been twisting your nips this week?

To my toddler who I love deeply:

Please sleep. You're almost 18 months old now and you've not come close to sleeping through the night once. We don't even mind that you've taken the bed and forced Daddy to sleep on the sofa for the last year.....just sleep through.

With Love

Your exhausted parents.

Its hard being a parent. Hopefully it doesn't go on for too much longer!

A small one for me. I've tried so many Lemmy apps, none of them have all of the features I want, and I end up switching between them and never really settling.

I greatly enjoyed Sync for Reddit. Sync for Lemmy is in the pipeline, if it gets anywhere close to Sync's previous customisability, it will be a great app. What exactly are you missing? I'm kind of inexperienced with Lemmy apps, but I can tell you if Reddit Sync had them.

I liked Sync when I used it. So looking forward to Dync for Lemmy. I ended up on Infinity, which I believe someone is recreating for Lemmy as Beyond. So really looking forward to that.

The kost obbious missing feature for me at the moment is Moderation tools seems to be lacking from all the Lemmy apps I've tried.

I can Feature/Unfeature, or Lock or Unlock posts etc. On any Ivetriedd so far.

Some just dont feel good to me (sorry Thunder).

All the instances defederating from exploding heads, has been both entertaining and frustrating at the same time, because literally all they would have to do is block maybe two or three communities on exploding heads to not get all the edgy content on their feed. That and I have a zit right behind my ear that just doesn’t want to go away

I think the problem is that there's not much non-edgy content on Exploding Heads.

[–] Wigglehard@exploding-heads.com 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Anytime I post regular material or Normie material. It just goes nowhere. I’m a huge dragon ball Z and no one is interested in the community I set up for it. I tried setting up a farming community for a small scale projects, and I’m the only one that posted in it. I tried setting up a men’s community to uplift other men and everyone hated on it lol maybe I just fucking suck lmao even when I do simple things like the Friday night music playlist no one contributes, when you’re a right wing shit poster the struggle is real

it's funny that you're learning why most social media sites get rid of extremists, they don't produce anything of value.

[–] Wigglehard@exploding-heads.com -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I would say on a level of extreme I’m about a five out of 10, I know plenty of people that are way more fucked up than I ever could be or would want to be. I remember I would regularly get into arguments with all the white supremacists on gab, i’m going to undertake a great journey of making all sorts of regular style communities, even though that’s not really my style, truth be told I was actually hoping that people would debate us on certain things so that maybe we could find common ground, a lot of people confuse what I am, which is a civic nationalist with what I hate which is ethno-nationalists, truth be told I don’t really don’t feel that I’m all that extreme because 20 years ago the stuff I talk about would be considered pretty normal, I feel like the world changed, all I ever really wanted to do was make music, play every game of the total war series like it was going out of style and make funny comments on YouTube, I don’t know, good talking to you to take care

[–] goat@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I can debate you if you want it. Not on this instance though.

[–] Wigglehard@exploding-heads.com -1 points 1 year ago

If you’re ever interested, feel free to debate anyone in the dank microwave taco community and although you may see stuff that will offend you there feel free to say whatever the hell you want to us basically and debate us because honestly when I first opened up my community three years ago, it was great because it was loaded with people from all walks of life, agreeing disagreeing and debating on everything all while sharing the same community, knowing that I wasn’t going to ban them. I think we had 400 members. Up to you but you would definitely be welcomed there to post and say anything you like
