Beehaw defederating effective immediately from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works
3y 18d ago in lemmyworld from beehaw.orgReddit CEO Steve Huffman's letter to Reddit employees in response to blackout
3y 20d ago in lemmyworldMy notes:
- As expected, a blackout with a set end date is seen as toothless by Reddit leadership
- I hate when companies refer to their employees with some "cute" nickname, like "Snoos"
- He expects some Reddit users to actually resort to physical violence, painting them as the irrational bad guys in this whole situation?

Upvote/Downvote counts showing for some comments and not others.
3y 20d ago in lemmyworldI don't think the number of downvotes show up next to the comment score arrows until it receives at least one downvote.
In the meantime, you can hover your cursor over the score to confirm how many upvotes/downvotes a post or comment has received.
Trump arrives in Miami for arraignment on first-ever federal charges against an ex-president

Van posting
3y 20d ago in carsThe mid-engined Toyota Previa.
My family had one when I was a kid, the supercharged model, with captains chairs in the second row that could be spun around to face the third row to create a chill hangout zone when parked or for long road trips.
I grew up thinking it was normal to lift the driver's seat to access the engine. I was not a smart child.

Just replaced the spot where Apollo was on my phone homescreen with a shortcut to Lemmy
3y 21d ago in lemmyworldWell, with that recommendation, I'll definitely keep an eye on mlem.
In the meantime, I'm pleasantly surprised at how usable Lemmy is on mobile web, much more so than Reddit.
Thanks for the links. Hope their development makes it easier for Lemmy to grow.
That said, I personally prefer to use homescreen shortcuts to Safari on iOS to avoid having to download apps that can clog up my phone, use up its battery, etc.
So the fact that I was happy to have Apollo installed on my phone really says a lot about how much I loved using it.
We just surpassed Beehaw in total users putting us at the second most populated instance.
