Hi! I'm British, I like music (grime, garage, hip-hop, R&B, and more!). I like art, culture, history, politics, & doomscrolling memes.

Also a touch of programming :)

  • What should the subset of the Fediverse that is Lemmy + Mbin + PieFed be called?

    Jump

  • Gonna be the odd one out here and say that all of these names are kinda stupid, but Lemmyverse is probably the best of the bunch.

  • Google’s dominance on search is declining – for the first time ever!

  • In Ecosia's settings you can set it to primarily use Google results instead of Bing. Makes it a lot more enjoyable to use.

  • It's still worth posting, a lot of people browse Lemmy only using the /all feed.

  • What features are missing from piefed, or, why aren't we reccommending piefed instead of lemmy?

  • I've only used Sync for Lemmy. What am I missing out on?

    Jump

  • Sync is outdated and will be broken in a future Lemmy update, some features already don't work (such as hiding read posts, they're meant to stay hidden but they don't in Sync). I'd suggest trying out Boost for Lemmy, Summit, Thunder, Jerboa, Eternity - roughly in that order.

  • TIL there're hundreds of recognised sub-national monarchies all across Africa. While no longer sovereign, these monarchies retain political, cultural, and religious influence in their communities

  • People are losing their minds over this title but the content itself isn't that big of a deal. It's a completely optional and ignorable feature that's tied into something you probably won't be clicking on anyway.

  • oh there's uh, lots, lots more than just 2 groups fighting it out in Myanmar. It's a really complex conflict that'll probably never fully resolve.

  • Qobuz reveals how much it really pays per stream, and I want to see more of this transparency to help us spend money more ethically

  • Apple Music in its current form is basically a direct evolution out of iTunes. It's a very old feature.

  • Is there any way to mark a post as "read" simply by scrolling over it instead of clicking on it?

  • Boost for Lemmy does this.

  • Sync is broken in this regard, it doesn't permanently hide posts anymore.

  • Passwords

  • My absolute favourite is when your password is too long but they don't tell you that, I guess because they weren't expecting it. It only causes a hitch when you later try to login and it doesn't let you ....
