I use the native app. I follow #tags rather than people. So i often go on public view to do some exploring. I am noticing a lot more products/service for sale images is there a way i can filter them out? I like it here as i know its generally not add based but pixelfed is starting to feel when small business inserted themselves into insta.

As above, I am looking for something discovery focused. I have the usual streaming catalogs Netflix/prime/apple/Disney. In addition to the popular/featured however they get repetitive.

I do like more 90s-early 2000s movies but find they don't really pop up as they don't fit really into the streaming categories...unless someone dies and people start watching their old stuff.

I kinda like to think i wanna watch a few arnie movies, or i wanna see some 90s serial killer movies.

Second ask, is there a way to reorder the ui sections...like move netflix further down?

This is not a facetious question. I know I can technically ask AI but i don't think this is a simple answer TBH, as I am confused about process, and I do not know enough about US politics.

All my life when observing US politics (which I don't really do for fun) there has generally been a very visible opposition leader, you know their name their stance etc. It's the same for most major powers. But for the USA I simply do not know anymore. I get the jist there is only 2 parties but the democratic party seems like its just disappeared. Previously there was news of candidates etc but that's just gone.

What is happening? and who is the leader of the opposition now?

I am not looking for a bunch of FTrump answers, it would be great to have a discussion that's rational and not about him.

One of mine is potato salad. I always add a good splodge of french dressing

Anyone got a secret ingredient for vegetable soup? ...mines always a tad bland. good chance to add requests.

As above switched to Linux and i am enjoying it i picked Ubuntu as TBH it was the first I came across. The last two times it has prompted me to update has caused a drama. First would only give me a black screen of text so I did a reinstall.

The latest one went fine it updated to 6.17.0-94 but i lost all networking no wifi By the looks of it the problem I have is i have an older device that has nvidia 580 graphics card. I have rolled back for now but questions are;

Is there a way to pre-emt this, as i feel now as soon as i restart it will jump back up and leave me without networking to resolve. its quite a faff trying to find out what to do on my mobile and typing it in the terminal.

Is it better to fix or try another distro?

Inspired by a few other posts and memes flying about. When I was young movies and tbh real life you would come across old people telling you that can’t trust the gov. To keep your cash at home etc. tell em nothing.

I am feeling it. I always assumed maybe about 60 it will happen to me. I kinda linked it to idle minds or a cognitive decline but lack of trust for me has arrived a lot earlier and I think I can rationalise to myself it’s more based on the gov actions rather than my circumstances.

So wha do you think in the magic age number that trust in the gov erodes? I’ll start. 42.

In particular Veg, I am thinking of trying the budgets, Aldi, Lidl, Wilkos etc any suggestions or am i better getting big brands etc?

Trying to cut down on my social media so going back to rss. I prefer web-based to self hosting and i am looking for an EU/UK/Canadian/Aus option.

What ya got peeps?

Hi all i am new to self hosting, I have everything just about set up. I am on linux server (docker host). I am good with movies/tv VPN Jellyfin etc. For music I have llidar and slskd setup and both running. I have tinkered Wireguard and Finamp and had it working.

So i have these 2 problem/s I could do with some advice/opinions on if you guys would be lovely enough to help.

1. I am currently using SLSKD more as I like partial albums. I then do a manual import via Wanted...this is cumbersome as i have to then add the artist etc in lidar, then go import the tunes.

2. I have a ton of old spotify playlists for example 80s etc. I would like to be able to bring them in and automate it somehow rather than finding them one song at a time.

I hate AI but its somewhat helpful in these situations. It suggested adding soulmate (docker) that has been slightly problematic, i also saw tubifarry and another plugin.

What are your suggestions of a route to take for my problems...should i faff about further with soulmate or another option? Nice to meet you all 🙂

Im going back to old albums and this week, the mood is poignant Tracy Chapmans Fast Car.

Wheatstitch beanie. My wool was too chunky resulting in a bulked up hat. Lesson learned.

Hi all, I used to garden years ago, and the didn’t as i was in a place where a garden wasn’t an option...But i have one now.

So i am excited to meet others gardeners and see your projects, have a community to ask questions with.

My next few projects are to get some concrete planters filled with veg. Build a wood storage Replant some acers from pots into barrels.

A community for gardening in the UK (just a bit local due to the climate and local based fauna, not trying to exclude anyone). It would be great to see your personal projects on design, seeding, planting, or just chatting about your latest garden activities.

No Selling or Promoting. This is a hobby community this isn't a spot to promote your product or grow your brand. If you mention tools or plants, that’s ok, we all use them and are often curious of results, but please ensure it helps the the community. Show Us Your Stuff: Pictures and tips are very welcome. Don’t be scared to share your guides. If posting pics maybe create a post with many rather than an image a post.
Let’s keep the discussions easy-going and respectful. Privacy matters and what we share here should be supportive and encouraging. Grow flowers. Grow others!

What you all got on the go?

I try to buy based on reviews. Not insta influence or amazon reviews. I like to hear real people’s opinions, and one that isn’t being paid for. And it needs to be something I can purchase local.

So I was thinking maybe we could pick some products maybe common stuff, hot items etc and maybe all chirp in.

It could be from reviewing tomato sauce from supermarket to supermarket, or let’s compare cardboard cutters.

Anyone fancy it?

What are you proud of this year? I don’t wanna hear i ran 3 marathons.

I want to hear the crazy awards stuff like…I drove the same road 438 times and exclusively listened to Fleetwood Mac.

Common share your special skill or unique achievement this year.

I am big into spending some time doing crafts with family. Ideally for me it’s got some recycling. I’ll be making cardboard houses this year, some paper chains and likely I’ll make some candle holders from clay.

What your craft project to escape the big world this year guys?

I’ll start. Chuck Norris jokes!

I am trying to ween of insta and social media. More towards genuine content so does anyone have any good gardening blogs? UK based (or similar climate at least) please.

I am not looking for curated style content. I am not wanting boxes of here’s the best 25 flower beds etc.

I have tried llm but it’s been sending me to non existing blogs or reroutes to compilation sites.

Thanks in advance.

I will start by saying I am trying to consume a lot less in my life, but due to circumstance I need to start again in my life. I am also trying to degoogle not use Amazon etc.

With this in mind I prefer to buy a decent value product and look at the options however I have noticed that I keep coming across comparisons and over and over it’s driven by ‘check price at Amazon’. Amazon has ruined decent reviews for me. All anyone wants to do is sell Amazon tat at me. Anyone else have this problem of too much chafe when trying to research decent products?
