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 …

It’s also worth ensuring you have at least both “Undetermined” and “English” selected as your languages in your settings.

I find Lemmy isn’t super at pushing newer content at the top, and you have to just mix between the different sorts. The content is definitely there. The alternative way to mitigate this is as follows:

• In my settings I have “show read posts” unticked. This ensues posts I interact with (e.g click on, vote on) with disappear from my feed afterwards (upon refresh/reload, of course). I don’t think it clears posts that have appeared in your feed but you haven’t interacted with. This is extremely effective in keeping your feed fresh.
• When browsing on my phone (Boost For Lemmy), I make frequent use of its “hide all read” button to quickly gut anything on my feed that I’ve seen before (no interaction needed).
• You can, of course, just manually hide posts as you go but uh, the above methods are better at automating that process for you.

I used to get really annoyed with stale feeds but upon doing the above it’s pretty much always fresh content.

That said, it won’t hurt to subscribe to more communities!

Sure.

In the UK we had to be told explicitly not to move before or after the bell rang, until the teacher said we were allowed to (which usually wasn’t long after to be fair). Wed all been conditioned by American movies were they just get up immediately to leave, lol

Recently a teenager on lemm.ee was banned from .world for being underage.

Probably not. There are kings and other such traditional rulers all throughout Nigeria, if you’re doing business there you’ll know about them.

One of the mobile apps has this feature, might be summit or connect. but otherwise no.

If all you need is a plank then a plank suffices

young padawan, the first lesson you ever learn on the internet is never admit your age until it no longer matters

Yes, but its maintaining support for these extentions… for now at least.

p.s. although it’s now out of date, as some instances are no longer around (RIP Lemmy.film), this post is still a pretty useful resource for a broader range of communities than those listed here.

Hey! Just a note: I have updated this post :)
