You have my Daily Bunnies community on your sidebar!

Unfortunately lemmings.world is closing next month, and it appears to have been down for the last couple of weeks - immediately before I announced that that community was moving.

As I think it's probably gone for good already, I'm trying to get the word out that the community has moved.

It is now at ![email protected]

Please subscribe to the new version!

Arqiva proposes slimmed-down Freeview network through to 2045

In evidence submitted to the House of Commons Scottish Affairs Committee’s inquiry into digital connectivity, the transmission provider proposed replacing the current six national DTT multiplexes with three DVB-T2 multiplexes after 2034 while maintaining coverage of 98.5% of UK households.

The proposal would reduce transmission costs and energy consumption by more than 40%, according to Arqiva, while preserving universal free-to-air television services.

McVitie's is launching its first-ever savoury biscuits in the UK

Brits will know and love the classic Penguin bar, which combines biscuit and chocolate-flavoured cream, with a milk chocolate-flavoured coating.

But now McVitie’s has unveiled brand new Penguin Bites, which are baked snack crackers that come in three flavours.

Shaped like little penguins, you’ll be able to choose between lightly salted, cheese, or salt and vinegar options.

[META] Lemmings.world is closing

Not sure if I should move this community or just let it close. Thoughts?

Original announcement below.

cross-posted from: https://lemmings.world/post/41938713

Hey there everyone!

It's been a nice run, but all good things come to an end as they say.

This nice thing comes to an end on Jul 2nd, 2026 which is when the domain expires and I've decided to not renew it.

It's been a nice run and I'm grateful to all the active users of our small Fediverse home!


::: spoiler click here if you're interested in the reason As for the reason for this decision, it's because Lemmy and the Threadiverse in general didn't turn out into what I envisioned it would be.

For a hot minute it was honestly great but eventually all that remained was tankies propaganda and depressing news. And probably a few non-political communities that sadly don't really offset it for me.

I was pondering on keeping it running even if I don't really use it that much anymore, but then Hetzner announced a significant price change (and you can bet that Lemmy is an unoptimized resource hog) which is not the reason on its own, but the proverbial last straw. :::


So yeah, that's it I guess. I promised that if the instance ever goes down, I'll let everyone know with enough time and I believe I managed to do it.

I'll maintain the instance until it expires and I'll keep on moderating it of course but it's probably a good time to start looking for a new Threadiverse home.


Yet again, thank you very much to everyone who has been part of this instance! And to many of the friendly admins of other instances!

A Jaffa x McVities digestive biscuit with orange caramel is coming

Introducing the brand-new limited-edition Jaffa x McVitie’s Digestives. The new launch takes the classic oaty digestive biscuit we all know and love and upgrades it with an orange caramel filling and a thick coating of smooth milk chocolate. It's important to note that early reviewers are saying the flavour leans much more Jaffa Cake orange than Terry’s Chocolate Orange, which makes this collaboration feel very authentic and true to the brand.
