The one center frame is suspiciously round. It’s going to go places!

There’s this for corporations across the board:
!fuckcorporations@lemmy.world
For Nestle specifically:
!fucknestle@lemmy.world
Edit:
For the occasional venting there’s also:
!vent@lemmy.world
If this idea was successful enough, I think I’d like to see sets from other scenes, like the fight upon the cliff, and going through the deadly swamp.
Always happy to see more RSS-related tools emerge!
Yeah, Belgium has its own sordid history for sure. Frankly I wasn’t aware of the extent of the abuses by the Catholic church there until reading this article, and unfortunately I suspect one may readily find similar in other countries that have had any major Catholic presence.
then some steam games would theoretically also be exempt because they don’t use steam drm.
I think the main difference that would arise between these and GOG would be the provision of installers. Even though some Steam games don’t use its DRM, they’re still reliant on Valve’s servers and an online connection for installation. GOG games are reliant on CD Projekt’s servers and an online connection for installer downloads, but upon download completion, one may install and reinstall games even while offline.
That’s a critical difference in digital distribution, in my opinion.
But isopropyl alcohol and enough elbow grease will get it off, if it’s just a coating on plastic.
Do beware, however, that you may want to dilute the alcohol to some degree, or simply use a lower concentration form of it. Too strong and it may eat at the underlying plastic just as much as the coating and ruin it.
are you getting a cut from kagi for writing that instead of search? gimme the deets on that deal if so! 😛
If the Otterbox case had a rubberized coating on it to try to improve grip, and with it being 6 years old, there’s a possibility it’s the culprit. You could try ditching the case for a little while, and/or getting a new case and swapping them out, clean the surfaces again and see if you feel the stickiness again after handling your phone and other stuff.
However, often with those rubberized coatings, the degradation (when severe enough to feel sticky) is more immediately apparent and you’d be more apt to avoid touching anything else afterward. Also in my experience I don’t recall it transferring to other surfaces much, but then again when I dealt with it I noticed ASAP and cleaned my hands right away.
As noted, seeing as they’re neither consistently active nor terribly large (Adulting is the largest of the two with any posts), building them on other instances now would probably be just as well. They’re decent enough topics to try to build communities around imo.
throwing knives (which just seem to breed like rabbits and accumulate in droves)
Every time they’re thrown, even just into storage, another emerges from the Forge of Being.
This may be related to the version your instance is on and Thunder adjusting to accommodate different vote display options that your instance version allows for. You might look through Thunder’s settings regarding display and see if there’s an option to restore the display of vote counts.
Hope this helps!
Delayed response, but there’s a few that I’m aware of that may roughly fit this interest.
Same idea but different instance:
!buyitforlife@sh.itjust.works
Lastly there’s !recommendations@lemmy.world, but this is more for seeking product recommendations rather than providing reviews of products. However currently there’s nothing in their rules prohibiting product review posts, so you could always DM the mod to see if they’re open to them.
Edited & crossed out first couple communities as I reviewed the original thread and saw they weren’t what you were after. I also see that you’ve made a community tailored to what you were looking for via !product_reviews@slrpnk.net, which is apt. Best of luck with it!

This is buried toward the bottom of the release notes so I’m bringing it up here:
Added instance-level default sort type
Any admins out there considering changing their instance sort settings or asking people on their instance if they’d like this changed, given that we can individually set sorting anyway? Taking into account the inclination of people to never adjust default settings (I remain deeply curious about this tendency, as an aside), I think it might be worth at least bringing up to one’s instance community.
If they decide they want it to remain the same, all good, and even better, it raises some people’s awareness that they can change it themselves.
I think while some of this may be people being people (i.e. tendency to only discuss issues/problems vs accomplishments/solutions), I think there’s also a technical element to it as well in Lemmy’s case.
Up to the latest release of Lemmy (as of writing this is v0.19.4), admins couldn’t adjust the default sort setting, which was Active. Read the docs on the sort setting and Active does what it says, surfaces those posts with recent commenting activity (taking into account score as well).
So you get this unfortunate mix of: people gravitate to discussing negative stuff, people tend not to change default settings (since despite defaults being Active, we can change these if so inclined), and the default sort settings surface whatever is being most discussed/commented on, resulting in this sort of negativity feedback loop you’ve observed.
I noticed and posted about this a few months ago, have tried to upvote and comment on less negatively-focused posts occasionally, but I think this may be an interesting example of a small scale systemic issue as it takes more of us doing similar to address what’s being encountered. However, as more instances update to v0.19.4, I’ll be interested in seeing if admins decide to switch away from the Active sort setting to try to address this in their own way.
I don’t know what sort setting may be better for instances to run with instead, but I’m glad they now have the option. In the meantime I think it’s worth reminding people that they currently have the option to change their default sort settings to something different to try to see different kinds of posts. Personally I switch between New and Scaled to see a variety of posts beyond many of the regular doom and gloom posts.
Appreciate the adjustments and responsiveness! Gave it another try after this and the different formatting hit the spot! Still need to use more to see more finely tuned results, but dig the idea.
Also as others have already said plenty, would be cool to see this cleaned up for an open source release. If you’d like to see how some others are handling a sorta similar idea but with RSS feeds, you might look to Nunti for ideas on how to approach it.
Little feedback on the UI from taking a peek at this.
When I went into settings and adjusted post display style from card to anything else, it wasn’t clear to me that this wouldn’t apply to the new For You feed, which left me confused and less inclined to use it. I still gave it a try to make sure I wasn’t missing anything and to see how much the feed seemed to change with some light interaction, but I think you’d need to use it more than I did to see an effect.
Problem being: display settings not applying to the For You feed means I’m not going to use it much with the default card view.
Second part is that there was some comment display lag as I looked through posts, so if I looked at a post about cats with cat-related comments, those comments would linger and appear for a moment under a different post about possums. It’s just long enough to be noticeable, so thought it worth mentioning.
If at some point Lemmy.zip gets a wiki (if it doesn’t already have one), I hope one of the urls for it ends up as xyz.lemmy.zip
Huh. I had to take a quick glance at the timestamp of this article to make sure it wasn’t old, as this was the same issue that inspired a short-lived fork a few years ago.
I get where this article’s coming from, as I got where the people trying to fork it under a different name were too, however for better or worse I think what matters even more to people is that the software works well and has a good UX. If I remember right, I think Glimpse intended to focus on improving the UX but it didn’t last long enough to do much in that regard.
Better than my memory though, here’s an article that gives some insight into what went into the cessation of its development.
There’s also some of their business strategy, e.g. Super Mario 3D All-Stars limited release, low production runs of Amiibo, and so forth.
