Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

I’d like there to be a balance. The memes are a good way to get more eyes in the community initially, but I’d like to slowly switch over to focus more on music as the community grows. Right now, I’ve got a featured song of the day, we just finished making an introductory folk punk playlist, and we’re getting started on a deep cuts list.

Me too! I got her after the bank I was working at got robbed. I had just moved out on my own and the house was way too quiet. I’ve had her for almost three years now and I’m convinced adopting her was the best decision I’ve made in that time period 💜

Callie the calico kitty :)

It does do that. I was thinning a little on top before I started and now I’ve got luscious locks!

I remember the first Voat exodus. It became a Nazi shithole soooo fast. Glad it’s gone now.

Everyone here is either a Linux user, Trekkie, or both.

Good mods/admins are worth their weight in gold.

Awww, thanks 💜

Oh gosh! Last time (above picture) was fine, zero burns. This week was different, haha. I sure learned my lesson. Definitely wearing sunscreen to the next protest.

Gender crises are some of the worst experiences ever. They’re especially difficult when you’re in an environment where you can’t talk to loved ones about it.

It makes me very happy to see how trans-friendly Lemmy has remained even while the rest of the Internet caters to bigots.

I could have sworn I watched a video by FediHost about that, but I either can’t find it or it never existed in the first place. I have seen some places move to Mastodon, so I edited my initial comment to be more accurate to my current info. Sorry!

How disappointing. Expected, but still. We ban all sorts of other harmful medical or practices, but this gets a pass because the stranglehold religion still has on the US.

My heart breaks the kids who will experience abuse because of this.

Good. I’m curious to see where they land. Most likely Bluesky, but I’ve heard of some local governments moving to Fediverse instances, whether they’re Mastodon or local.
