I get the majority of my son’s stuff on Vinted and sell on stuff that’s still decent quality, the cost of new clothing for kids just keeps sky rocketing and they only fit into them for such a short time anyways.

I also go to local kids’ clothes and toys charity sales and find so much for him, especially barely used books for mere pence!

That makes so much sense. I’m gonna start doing that myself. Thanks for the tip!

That’s interesting, what are the benefits of having a different app for different servers?

I’ve been using Voyager (or wefwef as it used to be known) since day one here at Lemmy. Moved over from Reddit when the API changes were announced, and then any potential negotiations with Reddit and third party app developers broke down.

All the time! I studied Latin and Classical History for years so it’s a deep interest of mine. I often reminisce about the trip I took to Italy with my Latin class to visit Pompeii and Herculaneum.

This is so wholesome. I love finding hand made knitted/crocheted items for my toddler when I’m shopping second hand. I always like to think that their creator would be happy to know that they’ve kept another little one looking cool and keeping warm ‘n cosy with their labour of love. :)

I’m listening now and enjoying it! I feel like these would be a great soundtrack for an indie game :)

I challenged myself one night to record myself improvising on my piano, after a few glasses of wine. I ended up lost in some kind of trance pouring my heart out into the keys. I’ve never been quite able to recreate it again.

I still enjoy listening to it from time to time, it’s a shame I had let a friend borrow my studio mic and just had my phone to record with at the time. Although perhaps the grainy phone recording quality is what adds to the timbre of it.

Thank you again, yes hopefully this might be something that is a future problem as lemmy grows, at the moment everyone seems pretty alright on here. My worry is that if/when lemmy becomes easier to access to non-techies and more people (looking at you Threads ugh), then we will start having problems. I hope we defederate and do it soon.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment, it’s certainly given me a lot to consider. I suppose it’s deciding now whether to be in the safer space or have the outreach to be visible to more people who need the support. I might be wrong but I’m assuming that Lemmy users currently don’t have a huge percentage of women who are child rearing at the moment. But then again, I’m here, so who knows. :)

This is amazing, thank you!

Hi there. Thanks for making wefwef (soon to be Voyager!), I am loving it so far and you’ve done so well in such a short time.

I’ve got a feature request that I think would improve usability:

Currently, if I’m browsing all via Hot, and then find an interesting community and visit there and sort by Top (All Time), when I’m ready to go back to all, it keeps that Top (All Time) sort enabled and I lose my place and the post I was looking at. Sometimes I remember to reset it before I go back but not always. Often I end up having to scroll way back to the top to begin again looking at recent Hot posts as the order has changed and it’s kept me scrolled X amount through the post timeline.

I think it would be great if the sort option didn’t persist and instead reverted back to what you had selected when you were at that point originally.

Thank you, Obscura :)
