do you think lemmy will ever be popular?
  • It's just a completely different use case. It may or may not continue to exist on its own but it will never replace twitter because it does not have the core thing that makes twitter special among social media (the fact that it is essentially "public"). "A bunch of small communities of nerds talking about niche topics" is something you can find friggin anywhere on the internet.

  • do you think lemmy will ever be popular?
  • Honestly I find it a little weird that Lemmy is so pro-Mastodon. Like a lot of people when the twitter implosion started I went and parked a username on a few potential replacements. And like a lot of people, when I saw that mastodon was all little specific instances, I didn't bother because the whole point of twitter is that it's a big public thing with everybody and everything. I haven't really seen anybody outside of Lemmy mention mastodon in months. Everyone is going to bluesky.

  • Is there a way to hide the button bar while typing responses?

    I can't see what I'm typing in landscape orientation. I type in landscape 100% of the time.

    Does not make me sad he's gone, tbh.

    Any fast way to block a user's whole instance?

    Been noticing a spammer who set up their own instance and can't see a fast way to just block the whole instance, either from the user menu, or from navigating to the instance. I may just be missing it.

    Is there any way to not show posts from NSFW communities?

    I'm wondering if I'm just missing how to do this. I don't want to see posts from porn communities when I'm browsing sync in public. I'm OK with blurred NSFW posts from communities which are not marked NSFW. I would really prefer not to have to filter out every single one manually.

    key chain?

    Any recs on a BIFL key chain? Those rings always get bent over time, looking for something sturdy. Might just be a flaw in the design because if you can bend it enough to get a key on, you can probably bend it out of shape over time.
