Tomorrow many subreddits will open up again, will you switch back to Reddit or stay on Lemmy (or use both)
I plan to stay on Lemmy/Kbin and abandon reddit for the most part

Confession. I wrote a lot of fake stories on Reddit.
I always felt the rise of fake stories came with the change to karma for text posts. It used to be that a text post gave no karma and so there was no incentive to karma farm that way. Once the change happened, many text-based subreddits had their quality drop dramatically.
Did you post to r/amitheasshole? I used to love that one

What would YOU like to see in the next Zelda game.
All I want is to go back to the classic Zelda formula of a linear story with dungeons. BOTW and TOTK are great, but I miss the old games. I miss getting a new item that suddenly makes new parts of the world accessible.
I'm afraid, however, we won't ever see this type of Zelda again. BOTW and TOTK have sold an insane amount of copies. This may be the new normal for Zelda.
Also, please let there be more 2D games.

Yes, a magazine is just a community or subreddit. I prefer the UI of Kbin but the terminology takes some getting used to. There's also regular posts and microblogs.

Redditors, how do you like Lemmy?
The learning curve is steep but I'm feeling very optimistic and excited to be a part of a new community. Reddit had been going downhill for years ( I joined in 2010).
I plan to stay no matter what reddit does next.

Seeking Advice Choosing Native Plants
I'm not able to double-check for you (I probably can later), but I would first verify everything is native. You can use sites like USDA plants to find range maps for individual species.
I like to buy from opnseed and their woodland edge mix sounds like a good fit assuming it's all native.
I would also evaluate the moisture conditions of your site. Some plants like it drier, some wetter.

Any native plant enthusiasts out there?

Awesome! I'll have to check it out

Which GW2 community is going to be the ONE?
My preferred account is on Kbin.social but I can't view this community through Kbin. I get a 404 error. I wonder if lemmy.wtf isn't federating with kbin?
Are there any other kbinners here? I really would prefer to subscribe to all GW2 communities under one account.

That's a baffle on a bluebird house. It keeps predators out.

It probably had desodding in the title. Or desod. It turns out I do have the photos still and I could recreate the post if necessary. It is very likely that I deleted the original post because I used to purge my accounts regularly but have slacked on it in recent years.

That would be sheet mulching. In my experience it works better with plugs than seed. I could always create a guide on that but I hope someone else does that is more into the method.

If money and time were not a problem, what would you do to make your dream yard?
If money was no object I would buy up all of the houses around mine and turn them into native forests.
When ever I see land being cleared for a development, I wish I could just buy it up and preserve it.

That's awesome! Every year I have to do a sweep for invasives. It gets easier but they always try to creep back in.

I'm glad you restarted the community here. I used to post on Reddit under a different name. I had posted a step by step on prepping a site by desodding as well as other advice.
I hope to start taking photos of my own yard to share and contribute to the site.

Yes, I have found a lot of value in Facebook groups for niche hobbies.

Oh my! Personally, I stay away from all herbicides. It is certainly a method though. Solarizing is also an option I haven't tried yet but appears to be relatively low effort.
