A place for former Sharp Shovel Society members (& friends) to keep sharing links, stories, art, and internet oddities. To help keep the feed organized, posts can include simple tags in the title using square brackets.

Tags are optional.

***# Most posts use 1–2 tags to keep titles clean and easy to scan.

If you want to add more detail, feel free to include extra tags or context in the post body.

Extra tags that are added in the post body, still show up in search without cluttering the title.

Think cross-posting without muddying up the post titles & the post feed.

Suggested Tags(feel free to suggest more):

[news] [tech] [science] [art] [projects] [internet] [video] [offbeat]

Tags are optional, but they make the feed easier to scan.

**#Searching Tags ** You can view posts with a specific tag by using the community search.

Search for the tag including brackets, like:

[tech] [art] [offbeat]

**#Optional: If you’re sharing a YouTube video and want a thumbnail to show, you can add one when posting. ** Not required at all, but if you like the look, you can grab the video’s thumbnail using: https://img.youtube.com/vi/VIDEO_ID/maxresdefault.jpg

(Replace VIDEO_ID with the part after youtu.be/ or v= in the link.)

Totally optional. A good title and link is all you really need.

Just checking in: anyone from Digg still here using Lemmy/Piefed, or did everyone go back to the R site?

I only saw this once, googled the answer, and never saw it again

I guess I typed in a server URL and it took care of it?

I really wish I could have found a local server and all. Instead I think I just somehow mapped to a popular one.

Also, this is a web client. Is my computer pulling from the 2nd server somehow?

AMD upgrade is BACK BABYYYYY!!!

For our first upgrade in 2026, we let Nathaniel run wild with $5,000 which he spent on a new PC (Powered by AMD), some 8TB drives for his NAS, and a freaking 4HP router spindle.

Check out the official featurette for Ready or Not 2: Here I Come starring Samara Weaving

Photographer Marcos Alberti snaps portraits of people after one, two, and three glasses of wine.

Brazilian photographer creates a unique experience among friends. Marcos Alberti decided to put together some of his passions in this project, friends, photography, wine and also a good old talk.

There is a saying about wine that I really like and it’s something like this “The first glass of wine is all about the food, the second glass is about love and the third glass is about mayhem”

I really wanted to see it for myself if that affirmation was in fact true says Marcos about his latest project.

Welcome to the World’s Highest Website! It’s 18.94 kilometers high (about 11.77 miles), and an enormous pleasure to scroll. Enjoy.

Draw a horse and let it run free in the parade.

#Welcome to Digg Diaspora.

The goal here is simple: keep the old Digg spirit alive. Share interesting links, projects, art, news, rabbit holes, and the weird corners of the internet.

#Title Tags

Lemmy does not have built-in tagging like classic Digg, so we use simple tags at the beginning of titles to categorize posts.

Just put the tag in square brackets at the start of the title.

Examples:

[News] Major scientific discovery announced [Tech] New open-source browser engine [Art] Mechanical sculpture made from bicycle parts [Projects] My retro LAN party setup [Internet] Weird website I found at 2am

Common tags you can use:

News Tech Art Projects Science Internet Video History Gaming

You do not have to use a tag, but it helps people scan the feed quickly.

#What Belongs Here ?

Basically, if it would have been fun to post on Digg back in the day, it probably belongs here.

The goal is not perfection. The goal is a living river of interesting things.

Jump in and start posting.

In 1995, director Terry Gilliam released one of the strangest sci fi movies ever made.

A bleak time travel thriller starring Bruce Willis, Brad Pitt, and Madeleine Stowe, 12 Monkeys blended paranoia, dystopian sci fi, and psychological mystery into a movie that confused audiences but ultimately became one of the most beloved cult films of the 90s.

But behind the scenes, the film had a chaotic journey to the screen. From studio skepticism to Brad Pitt’s career changing performance and Terry Gilliam fighting to keep his bizarre vision intact, the making of 12 Monkeys was anything but straightforward.
