Hobbit Art
!hobbit_art@hobbit.world
I love everything about the Middle Earth legendarium. The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings have resulted in countless pieces of art for us all to enjoy. Please join me and the rest of the hobbits in celebrating the artwork of the best works of fiction ever created!
The above picture comes from Courtney Myers Art. (I am not affiliated with the artist.)

I have the same problem even after unchecking read posts. Of course, it's a bug either way. In the meantime I just always click the save post button so my posts show up there instead.
The real reason was that Gollum couldn't fly. If they flew there, Frodo would have claimed the ring and that would be that.
The explanation for why Gandalf chose not to fly is up for question, but ultimately irrelevant.
Can you clarify? If my instance doesn't have custom emojis, it's safe?
Planetina from Rick and Morty would just straight up murder the biggest offenders.
Well, I just made hobbit.world and intend to only have Tolkien related communities there. So block away if that's not your thing. However, the only way to block an instance is to defederate and that's kind of harsh. Hopefully the feature of blocking communities by instance is added.
This sort of stuff is crucial and needs to be built in.
Most instances are one user's whim away from going away. This isn't a problem as long as clients back things up and migration is easy. But, that doesn't happen right now.
Guarantee we'll see some big news at points in the future when a big instance goes down because the owner died or just lost interest.
Again, these are easily overcome, but they are issues right now.
Actually, clicking those links actually works! Hooray!
I was under the impression that you were supposed to be able to search for "!hobbit_art@hobbit.world" in the community search bar and find things there. Now that I know it works, I've found that simply modifying the community url also works. So going to: https://lemmy.world/c/hobbit_art@hobbit.world actually jumps me right to it.
So, looks like it was already working. Thanks!
Everything works great there locally, but I can't subscribe to communities on other instances and can't see my instance from lemmy.world.
I see no setting for this in the console other than "Federation enabled" which is enabled, and allowed and blocked instances. I added lemmy.world to allowed.
For example:
!hobbit_art@hobbit.world
(If it matters, I have new user accounts disabled until I figure things out.)
Agree about the comparison with music. I wonder why we didn't see balkanization there like we do for video.
Awesome! I was hoping this would be possible. I plan to host my own instance hobbit.world and would need to migrate everything.
Also, I'll defederate any corporate instances. No need to encourage bad actors.
Cable cost well over $100 a month many years ago when I cancelled it. And 1/3 of the content is commercials.
Pretty sure you could subscribe to every major streaming service for less than that. And as long as you avoid Hulu, you won't see commercials.
Things are WAY better now, even though it was better a little while ago when there was just Netflix.
Whoa, that shrug guy loses his backslash arm in Lemmy too? It's a reddit flashback!
If we're going to ignore societal norms, can we please bring back 80's hair? I fucking love 80's hair.
It starts a little slow as Boromir makes his journey, but things pick up later as more people start moving around.
If nothing else, I learned a ton about what was actually going on.
Kind of crazy how much Gandalf moves around throughout the whole thing. Eru really should have given him wings.
You can see the bits moving around inside when you use it.
Can you repair Curtas? I think there's a niche market demand for that. I'd certainly want it if mine ever broke.
The Connect app allows you to hide posts based on keywords. Maybe add "reddit" to that?
I don't actually think I've heard a story of someone getting a domain back once it is lost. Glad this worked out.
Their history with Facebook does not engender confidence they are capable of that.
If the lying thing was universal, I'd go with that. The world would be better if the powerful couldn't lie.
But just lies to me personally? That'd barely change my life at all.
Seeing anything in history though? That'd be amazing. It'd be work, but I could probably witness events and then work backwards and publish papers on it using publicly available information. Knowing the answer to start with would certainly make that sort of thing easier.
Walkabout Golf in VR. Simple enough for family members, but challenging even for gamers.
I bought both domains, but can't decide which to use.
For me, in no particular order:
- Firewatch
- This War of Mine
- What Remains of Edith Finch
- Gone Home
- Papers Please
- Doki Doki Literature Club
- I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream

I've tried Jerboa and Connect. They are ok, but there are features I'd like.
Biggest feature is account backup and transfer. If I switch Lemmy instances, I don't want to have to sub and block all the same channels and people. Heck, maybe keep two accounts always in sync, just in case my initial instance goes down.
Instance blocking. Basically individual defederation by hiding posts and users in the client.
Blocking all subs of a name regardless of instance. If I don't want to see a sub about Foo on one instance, I probably don't want it anywhere.
Keyword blocking. There are public figures I am tired of. Don't need to see any post about them. (Connect actually has this, although I haven't tested it yet).
Really easy channel blocking. Just swipe and it's blocked.
I have tinnitus and could never stand CRT whine. But I'd like to get one for classic gaming if there was such a thing as a silent crt.
I have found that painting fluffy white clouds or shadows or gradients is highly dependent on brush type, type of paint, how dry the paint on the brush is, how dry the paint on the canvas is, etc.
I am trying to figure out how to do this consistently. Is there a type of paint best for this? Maybe one that is chalkier somehow compared to most paints that are heavy bodied?
