Is there a community for finding communities? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] hsl@wayfarershaven.eu 2 points 11 months ago

Please see the sidebar, third link in the section about communities. Removing per rule #3.

I read before bed but am unsure if I should be using a no back light Kindle or if the Kindle app on my iPhone is ok? Anyone have experience with sleeping quality after reading using either of these? in c/literature@beehaw.org

What's your preferred app for the text-to-speech function?

Whats a stupid ritual in your life that makes you happy? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Eating M&Ms by color - it has absolutely no purpose and they're bad for me, but oh so satisfying.

Why not call this board, "supportlemmy"? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

@OriginalThinker@lemmy.ml, I'm responding to your DM here.

We don't move posts to the correct community because Lemmy doesn't have that option - and I'd rather you got to choose where your content lands.

As for why we don't reach out and tell people - this is a volunteer job on a big community. We rely on the mod log and allow this kind of meta post to stay up for transparency and discussion. Otherwise, we focus on following the rules laid out so that this community can stay within its intended scope. This is a community for open questions and discussion - not support.

I'm sorry you don't feel welcomed - that's tough. However, communities come with their own rules and mods will make sure they're enforced. I'd recommend checking those rules carefully before posting in the future as that will help the reception of your post.

How come it didn't accept my previous post? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

This is more of a support question, related to using Lemmy. Please see the sidebar for a list of communities that offer support. Removing under rule #3.

What Lemmy Client(s) Do You Use? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] hsl@wayfarershaven.eu 7 points 1 year ago

I access Lemmy through the browser all the time. The experience is solid and consistent across devices and I need access to both mod and (occasionally) admin tools.

What's the best Android/iPhone app for Lemmy? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] hsl@wayfarershaven.eu 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We could - but we're still getting comments here. Why not continue to use this thread and sort by new?

Also - this topic doesn't even really belong in Asklemmy per the rules. If anything, I'm more inclined to unpin it and return to dealing with posts as needed.

How is Lemmy so good and you guys all so awesome? FUCK! in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] hsl@wayfarershaven.eu 17 points 1 year ago (3 children)

It's not just the mods but the admins going to lengths to keep their instances clean. The awfulness outlined in that post means I'm not sure I should keep hosting my own instance.

Please check the sidebar for tips. Closing per rule #3.

Is it legal to create a bot which copies and posts every question there is in forums and on Reddit into lemmy.ml? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] hsl@wayfarershaven.eu 1 points 1 year ago

Removing per rule 4 - we've have a few similar questions and this doesn't cover any new ground.

Locking this thread per rule #2; we don't have the bandwidth to moderate political discussions.

[Meta] Added a search link to the community sidebar (wayfarershaven.eu)

I added a search option to a community's sidebar - this will be helpful to find past answers but also to check and see if someone has already asked that question recently.

For example, here are the latest posts on password managers: https://lemmy.ml/search?q=password&type=Posts&listingType=All&communityId=8&page=1&sort=TopAll

I've set it to search through Lemmy.ml - this has the pro that it will be able to find all content because it's a local community. It has the con that most people won't be able to interact directly with the content as they are not subscribed via their own instance.

I was hoping to use a relative search URL and search through the user's instance. This won't work as each instance numbers the communities differently: the communityId on Lemmy.ml is different than on my own instance.

Is this helpful for anyone? Do you have any suggestions on how to improve it further?

What's your best recommendation for sharing images on Lemmy? (wayfarershaven.eu)
 

We can upload images directly to Lemmy but that does increase the load on the instances. What other services do you recommend? Do you have a go to?

Digital Nomads - for those who work and wander (wayfarershaven.eu)
 

You can find us at:

I know that we have a few other digital nomad communities around but none of them seem to have taken off. Given that wayfarershaven.eu is also home to communities like !heronebag@wayfarershaven.eu and !solotravel@wayfarershaven.eu, I'm hoping to build the digital nomad community here on Lemmy.

Sticky so that we have one place to discuss.

Worth upgrading from a Logitech F710 to something better? (wayfarershaven.eu)
 

I've just pulled the trigger on a dock and I'm thinking it may be time to upgrade my external controller. I have a Logitech F710 which has been pretty decent for PC gaming and has worked well on Linux. I'm seeing the Xbox XS as a top recommendation. Is it worth the upgrade?

Cozy Fantasy community! (wayfarershaven.eu)
 

I know it's still early days and we may not have the userbase yet, but I wanted to make sure it exists for those who may want it.

Cozy fantasy is a term to describe lighter fantasy fiction that focuses on warmth, comfort, and a sense of belonging. If you’ve ever wanted to lose yourself in a magical fantasy world but weren’t in the mood for dark themes and stressful, epic quests, cozy fantasy fiction is exactly what you need.

Fountain pens (again!) (wayfarershaven.eu)
 

We had a thriving community at fountainpens@sopuli.xyz but it has been steadily more challenging. As the mod, I've decided to move the community to my own instance.

I look forward to continuing our discussions!
