This could be niche, but I'm a fountain pen nerd. I love stationary, different types of papers inks and nibs and how they all influence the writing experience.

This is really unique, just take a peek at it and you will see what I mean.

I think the presently smaller user base makes it easier to feel comfortable posting and talking, plus I feel as if many could be motivated to participate more because of the ideals the community upholds through FOSS. It certainly feels good to post here, a more guilt free experience.

I just have NSFW turned off in my user settings.

Books in general. I get most things from them

Y'arr! I hope this shall be a safer port of call than Reddit.

Yes, thats why it's in the windows installation instructions.

Any love for Qobuz?

I think, at a fundamental level the Reddit I am mourning isn't Reddit as it exists now, but perhaps how I imagine it did ten or so years ago, the so called "Early Days". We're all here now because Reddit at is now is unsustainable and actively hostile against it's users. The contradiction between the need for monetization of the userbase and the userbases disgust at being monetized. This isn't a recent occurrence but sometimes we need to get a bit of a kick to realize how bad its been, in retrospect.

I do know, as many fellow tech people do, whenever I have to look into a problem I haven't encountered before, appending "Reddit" to the search often leads me closer to an answer. I will miss that, as it had become so well indexed. Lemmy isn't there yet in terms of being indexed.

Pictures you can hear. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

"Teaching sand how to think was a mistake".

6749 now, so the number is definitely going down. Hopefully some of the big fish still hold firm.

I'm on the mobile browser version, but click your profile picture, settings, and then go to the blocked tab. Should be a blocked communities subheading. Let me know if that works.

Oh nice, didn't know that was a community. I'll head on over.

Kon Peki has never let me down, though I have been enjoying Robert Osters Sea Green lately too.

Nalgene covered in stickers, as was the style at the time. Somewhere around 5-6 years old at this point? Been through quite a lot.

I can see your comment fwiw

Last time I checked, they were using DDOS Protection from Cloudflare which breaks all federation with them. Until that stops, it will not work.

Even though I select "All" as my default type, it doesn't seem to populate anything after the second page of results? But if I click on "all" manually, I get all the pages. Otherwise, I'm just discovering things still, and exploring - which is fun!

A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin. I used the first book as a palate cleanser after finishing Blood Meridian. It's very whimsical and playful in many aspects but also builds out a beautiful world that you can definitely lose yourself in.
