Didn’t know about that, now I’m gonna research it. And thanks!

I just made my first post, chose asklemmy 🤷‍♂️

It went ok so far, testing the waters, you people have been nice and helpful 🙏

Mastodon is single developer? 🤔

And thanks for the list, a question I should post on “no stupid questions “ I need to create a new account on every instance I want to explore, right? This is a rabbit hole inside a rabbit hole 😂

We’ve evolved technologically, not psychologically

I have an office account for work. I don’t happen upon the troubles people report here. I couldn’t leave MS as I basically use all their stuff for work (and so do the several other hundreds of employees here). But teams does work well: texting, videocalls with 100s of participants, recording meetings, file repositories

I use teams every day. My only gripe recently is the messages like “look the wonderful things we did to improve it” that I didn’t need and will probably never use, but I press the little X don’t know don’t care

I don’t know what you’re on, but could you hook me up with some?

I’m using discovery in ios phone mostly. It works nice once you learn how (I’m starting to sound like my old man)

But thanks for the help, you’re in my christmas list now

Ive been using descovery for a while. It works mostly great. I have to learn a bit better how this works as instances and filters go, but I think I got it figured out for the better part

I love the helpful feeling you get from people responses here, not those snarky one liners replies that add nothing (but I’ve done plenty of those on reddit, don’t want to bring that vibe here, although I might have failed already)

I’ll be better, I promise

People think humanity is so much more evolved now but it has been actually the same shit from thousands ago or whenever recorded history goes back.

Also: portuga was here

I had a great time being 15. Back then I couldn’t even fathom being twenty, it felt like being old and I was never getting old (or so my 15yo self thought)

That joke was funny when I first heard it, 20 years ago

No. Just the same shit with less users. Let it grow (by the millions as lemmy is trying to convince us) and you’ll see. I say we get back to smoke signals

Every fruit from big supermarkets tastes like chemicals, looks shiny like you say and they’re all the same size. Also they pick them when they’re not ripe a refrigerate them, so an apple lasts like 3 days outside the fridge before you open it and it’s rotten inside. The good fruit and vegetables come from local markets. It’s less convenient and sometimes even more expensive but you get to taste and benefit from the better nutritional content.

These news are becoming tiresome

Well thanks I’ll try your suggestions. I tried a portuguese instance but it was really slow going, maybe I should check again. Truth is I haven’t entirely figured how this works and to be truthful staying out of social media as whole has been refreshing. But I find the lack of users and memes from 10 years ago kinda charming, being a decades old reddit user, lemmy holds some of the niceness of reddit in the old years so I’ll stick around. Would mastodon be any better? Have no interest on xitter clones like bluesky

Yeah I can live without bananas. They’re not indigenous* to where I’m from (Portugal) so it makes little sense for me to pay for shipping from other countries while inevitably letting some go to spoil. There’s plenty of other fruit I can eat without making a bigger carbon footprint

*actually we have a variety of bananas from madeira island which is Portuguese. They are smaller than your regular banana but make up for it in taste cause they’re delicious (regular imported bananas don’t taste like much)

Yeah, but it tastes like ripe bananas with cinnamon. I also tried making banana ice cream (only ripe bananas, and stir it while it freezes. Didn’t become a fan. I just opted for not buying bananas

I have a female friend that just sprinkles cinnamon on it and mashes them with a fork and says it’s delicious. Yeah she’s crazy. I suggested putting some palm olive on it so it would make easier to scrape it into the garbage bin

What if horses are instead giraffes with short necks? Checkmate atheists

It’s funnier this way?
