Reddit Refugees on Lemmy, how are you guys liking lemmy so far?
I'm really enjoying it. I feel way more inclined to post here, I very rarely did over at Reddit. People seem a lot more receptive and willing to participate.
Only downside is that it doesn't have the history Reddit has, so I still find myself using Reddit's history for research. I haven't installed the new app though, and I haven't looked at /r/all since the API changes went into affect.

Reddit mods are calling for an ‘affordable return’ for third-party apps
It seems like this is the only way that Reddit can slow the rise of the Fediverse to me. All of their official access channels (web/official app) pale in comparison to the usability of third party apps.

What made you pick the Lemmy server you are on?
I don't think it really matters, but I picked vlemmy.net because it wasn't too big. I figured that the bigger ones were staring down the barrel of a huge influx in traffic, so I wanted to avoid them.
I didn't see any evidence of the admin being shady, but also wasn't too hasty with the defederate button.

Has anyone watched S6 of Black Mirror?
Yeah, I bailed on the final episode because the rest was so underwhelming, and the last episode was bordering on feature length.
It's a shame because I'm a big fan of Charlie Brooker, I loved the earlier seasons.
I thought Joan Is Awful was alright, but too much time was spent on the premise and the twist felt rushed. Loch Henry was good, but not the "what would happen if was real" type premise that I've come to expect from the show. Beyond the Sea was about 40 minutes too long. Mazey Day... I have no idea what they were thinking.
I genuinely wish I liked it more, but this is two underwhelming seasons in a row for me now 😕

Apple’s Strange Planet animated series starts streaming in August
Could be interesting, I enjoy the comics when they pop up on social media. Not sure how it's going to adapt to something longer form but I'll keep an open mind.

I've not come across Prowlarr before... What's it for? I've had a glance at the homepage but I don't really get the purpose?

Rick & Morty Will Return This Year With a New Voice Actor
Obviously Justin Roiland can't continue in light of the allegations levied against him... But I can't imagine this is going to feel the same.

YSK: Your Lemmy activities (e.g. downvotes) are far from private

I'm no expert but I believe comments are pulled down by an instance when a user requests the information and is then cached in the DB. So not everything is, but content that's viewed by a user on the instance will be.

Memmy Version 0.1.0 - Here is what is fixed, changing, and being added to the upcoming App Store release
Is the TestFlight build still the one to use for bleeding edge, or are you migrating everything to the app store release? I'm not really sure how it works, this is the first TestFlight app I've used 😅
Great work on the app though, I've said it before but it's really fantastic!

Streaming PS5 locally to my iPad - laggy?
I had horrible issues with mine, even though the PS5 was right next to my router and I was on my iPad in the same room. What really improved things for me was connecting the PS5 via ethernet.
