Appa! Yip yip!
(Ok, it’s a yak not a sky bison, but it’s still who I saw first)

I don’t know if or when it came back (there seems to be a 30 year cycle for fashion where everything old is new again) or if you are just your own individual who doesn’t care if it’s in, just doing it because you like it.

Or maybe you’re rockabilly. Or too punk to care.

Or maybe I stopped noticing it and it never actually went out of fashion - it was me who went out of fashion!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Tight-rolled jeans with rolled-down socks.
Also, aforementioned backwards clothes - even trained my Grandma to reply “jump, jump?” 😁

Like the Santa maggot guy

I kinda like the idea of it being Santa instead of Satan 😁

PAX - before there was PAX Prime or PAX East.

This is what my family (and a few friends) use. We have been using it for a while now because it just works. Also, the kids have never complained about using Conversations, or about using it only for us (like if you have that one family member who won’t leave SMS behind - we’re that guy, I guess), and we can make as many channels as we need for the house, the kids, with each kid individually, for our MTG cards, with our couple of friends that use it, etc…

I don’t personally do the hosting, so I can’t speak to that. That’s the hubby’s thing
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The thing that gets me a lot of the time is falling up. I would trip while running or riding a bike, and lose contact with the ground. Soon I’m beyond any trees that I could grab, and just falling. Up. Until it wakes me up.

I’ve had nightmares about it since I was a kid (I don’t know when “old” starts, but I’m probably closer to that than to being a kid. Well, in age - I’m still pretty immature 😅)

I have had quite a few nightmares about not being able to find my kids during zombie apocalypses.
Same basic thing tho: the scariest part wasn’t the setting or scenario, it was not being able to save my kids from harm.

That’s at least part of what is exported as JSON from the settings menu (afaik, you get there from your regular settings menu in the web interface and it’s at the very bottom)

I think you can then import to the new account?

I always feel bitey after my visits to the vet, too.
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ rrraaaaarrrh!

• Pet an animal friend, or a friend’s animal, or a friend. Probably ask the friend first, or maybe don’t.
• Don’t be afraid to hug your mom/kid/cousin/friend.
• If animals and friends elude you, find a stuffed animal/monster/alien/person that will let you cuddle if for no other reason than because it has no choice.
• Watch cartoons or sitcoms or romcoms, and deliver some good feels into your brain.
• Look for eyebleach (not literally bleaching your eyes!), and try to put the terrible thing behind you.

Good luck!

The options I’m aware of are A) that spot to block/filter instances in Sync (which you’ve already done), or B) going to the web interface with a browser, going to your settings page there, and there’s the tab for Blocks. That page has ways to block a person, community, or (at the very bottom of that) instance.

I can’t help you with getting the filter to stick, but at least there’s another way (which should end up being client agnostic)

It’s tea. Or maybe a cold soup, in the way that a taco is a sandwich.

(Preparation and ingredient rebels can make anything tea.)

Yeah, tested on that post and this one, and it at least works in each post and comments. Good luck!

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Like this, maybe?

(May not always be useful?)

That’s fair - I had just thought it must be the new normal, if it had trickled down to our city (city, but not big city).

The whole business of blaring ads at a captive audience is bs, either way!

I don’t live in a big city, by any stretch - but I guess it’s not the sticks, because we have that shit around here. And not just the busiest gas stations, by the highway. I hate it.

They’re “Community” on Lemmy, and “Magazine” for kbin. I don’t know about elsewhere…

What navigation style do you use? It’s probably the same, just how you get to the view that shows the list of Local, Subscribed, and Everything. Left drawer navigation will look like this

Long-press the three-dot menu next to Subscribed for the option

My experience exactly when I tried mentioning the spoiler problem (there’s a markdown-specific post here if you wanted to add anything else, btw)

I think there are 3 ways of marking spoilers and Sync only recognizes 1 of them or something. Even on this community’s about section there’s a spoiler that doesn’t work in the app.

the spoilers are a mess.

Yup. They are (for now)!
