  I miss having a centralized community for Blender 3D modeling and sculpting like what Reddit has. I genuinely feel that this site has enough users to bring back a similar feeling community, but it seems that on Lemmy everything is so spread out. Seeing how I have finally visited the above communities and saw how sparce the content is I really feel we should/could condense the Blender topic down to one community, while also leaving a link in the about page of older lesser active places to take users to the most active location: ![email protected]. Is this something that the fediverse is also looking forward to accomplishing?

Edit: I am being told that one of these instances has shut down, so I feel that's just another good reason to consolidate these communities 😅

Edit 2: Not sure what the outcome has been since the most comments were saying was about the dead/inactive communities. So if anyone is looking for an active Blender community go to: ![email protected]

Have tried looking through the patches, and nothing seems to match my issue. There is a "hide shorts compontents" patch, but nothing in that setting menu worked. And i have also uninstalled, and tried over and over. So far this is the only issue i have, but because the user interface on shorts is hidden i cannot access comments :(

Anyone have a fix or share similar experiences?

There have been plenty of sites hosting horrible, and graphic content like the late LiveLeak site. But I've never heard of a good site for posting actual paranormal stuff.

Unless i am wrong.

Edit: I get it Lemmy, i might be asking for too much, but it doesn't seem too farfetched to have a dedicated site of actual video camera posts not edited tiktok or hollywood crap. I'm not looking for a movie, tv show, or a Halloween prank. I guess it does not exist because paranormal activity has been and always will be fake stunts.

Edit 2: dog sees something but they never show the floor. Could have been a spider.

Ghost car cop chase car "goes through fence" but it went out of frame before it went through. Either editing, or like the comments says, the fenced went over/under the car and this cop is just a pansy.

Edit 3: Skinwalker Ranch this was cool to start with, buuuuut again they talk of something blocking the airspace above but what they show doesn't match with their claims. The 3D animations explain what they see, but the actual footage has so many cuts it's obviously fake.

I have the T55 27inch curve monitor that randomly went to a black screen and will not display anything.

No built-in menu, no pop up saying searching for inputs like HDMI. Nothing.

I was playing "For the King 2", and my monitor just goes dark. My pc was still running the game and I could hear others in Discord just fine.

Right now i am unsure of what to do. I have tried the following:

• Unplug monitor for 30+ seconds
• Checked HDMI cable
• Held the Jog switch for 1 minute
• Plugged monitor into the wall
• Tried using the directional functions on jog switch (just cause screen to flicker on and off but nothing is displayed.
• Restarting computer (which obviously did nothing).

Am at a loss right now. Had this monitor for about 3 years so I think the warranty is gone. What do I do if it doesn't start working in its own again?

Edit: Imgur post showing the issue

Edit 2: I decided to contact Best Buy and see about trade-ins, and discovered I bought the 4 year extended warranty!! So i got it exchanged for a "different" model... Which turned out to be the exact same thing just called something else.

The past couple of versions i have used would only allow me to open the comments of YT Shorts one time, then it would load blank any time after until I fully closed the app.

My current version, 19.04.37 Non-root, will some times open a YT Short immediately when the app opens, and i have to quickly hit Home before it loads... Else the app will close when trying to go back.

So, I'm curious if others have had similar issues as well? And does each patch have its own quirks like these?

So this is something that I experienced with Boost for Reddit as well, but it occurred randomly: whenever I zoom in on a picture to see details, or read words better, within Swipe View I cannot simply pan the image around. The app seems to think I am trying to swipe to the next post.

So my way of getting around this is to basically tap the image lightly to get it to move around. Or to tap the post's icon/image preview to open the image ontop of the app.

🤔 Any way to get this fixed for us that prefer Swipe View?
