One of our (friends’) plants is suddenly dying for no apparent reason, please advise.
  • Please note I'm not a horticulturist! That plant (at least the one in good condition) looks like an Impatiens to me. According to https://www.thespruce.com/shade-tolerant-impatiens-flowers-2132141 you need partial/full shade. That wilt does look like sun damage to me, so that's my guess. It also needs well-drained soil, so maybe also check how it's been watered recently.

  • r/iPhone will be going private indefinitely (3.82 mil subscribers) - joining r/videos and many other subreddits
  • I definitely agree with you and didn't mean to imply that the reddit community should just roll over. I was simply inquiring why so many think it'll be different now when there is history of Reddit not giving a duck, removing mods, and reopening.

    Hopefully it will be different this time, but with Spez's focus on IPO and AI, I really don't see much going well for anyone right now. Tomorrow is just a day away, so we'll see where this roller coaster ends up!

  • Ahoy to those who went overboard from the S.S. Reddit!
  • Been lurking for a long while now, so it’s really cool to see so much more activity around here now! Yay (thanks Spez! Lol)

  • Did me and my girlfriend in Lego!
  • Aww, cute!

  • r/iPhone will be going private indefinitely (3.82 mil subscribers) - joining r/videos and many other subreddits
  • This scenario has happened before, has it not? Why would anyone expect that Reddit will respond differently this time and walk back their plans?

  • Hello, fellow nature nerds! I will introduce myself with a cute pic of a lace bug I saw a few days ago.
  • Aww, that lace bug is adorbs! I finally found one of these a few weeks ago after literally years of trying! So cool; thanks for sharing that!!

    • searching for and sorting communities by some metric (like most subscribers)
    • ability to acknowledge pinned posts and fold them up or remove them from view (tired of scrolling past them)
    • a Share feature of a sort? I'd like to be able to "Share with..." and open a post (say, from a web browser) in Mlem.
    • more descriptive error messages when trying to log in (did the login fail because u/p is wrong or the server is fubar?)
    • filtering (blocking) communities should allow me to show either posts with those word(s) or posts without those word(s). As of now I think it's just posts with the defined words. Regex would be super!
  • New official /r/piracy fallback community
  • This is my biggest complaint with Lemmy — I’m exhausted having to join the same communities over and over again. I wouldn’t doubt this could be a huge barrier to incoming refugees. Multi-Lemmy can’t come fast enough!

  • Are VPNs still useful for privacy when torrenting?
  • It’s not obvious to everyone though! VPN adverts make their services sound magical.

    I think the most important behavioral change takeaway is not logging into services or doing the same activities while the VPN is active (if being anonymous is your goal). I do all my VPN torrents stuff through a Docker instance to avoid those pitfalls.

  • Reddit refugees, has your favorite sub migrated already?
  • I miss /r/AppHookup. Everything else already arrived!

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Duuuude, it's such a huge time saver! RSS is how I've used reddit for years. It's also how I use Lemmy.

  • I like this significantly better than Mastodon
  • lol, yeah! I hated posting an even slightly unpopular opinion on reddit. Just downvotes and insults returned.

  • Are VPNs still useful for privacy when torrenting?
  • I feel like this article has as much fear-mongering as the adverts it's railing against! I agree with the article in that there are two big issues with using a VPN: 1) Cruddy VPN services that aren't worth the money, and 2) Users connected to a VPN don't change their behavior and give themselves away.

    For #1, use a service that's been well vetted (handles DNS, IPv6 properly, doesn't keep logs, anonymous payments, killswitch, etc). ProtonVPN, Mullvad, iVPN are good choices imo. For #2, ah, see https://mullvad.net/en/help/first-steps-towards-online-privacy/

  • Trump’s 2024 GOP opponents rush to his defense, post indictment
  • Makes more sense if you look at it like they know he's sunk and they want his supporters.

  • How's the censorship around here?
  • Oh, I gotcha! I thought you had some immediate knowledge I didn't -- the reddit thing has me a bit jumpy I guess. lol. Lemmy.ml seems pretty chill, that's what I joined here, so I hope it stays sane!

  • How's the censorship around here?
  • Are you referring to physical issues with Lemmy.ml, like staying reliable, or some future philosophical changes?

  • Major Reddit communities will go dark to protest threat to third-party apps
  • I was dabbling in Lemmy before, but now have fully moved!

  • rlhe raesin @lemmy.ml

    It's me. Hi! I'm the problem.
