There are dozens of us.

In all seriousness, I do occasionally visit select subreddits even though I no longer have an account. I’d like to think leaving reddit has changed my internet browsing habits in a good way.

Going for some locally adapted strains is a great idea. Thanks for that! I’m actually a terrible gardener so I hadn’t thought of it. I just used what little seeds my neighbour gave me, and in limited area because I tend to prioritise fruits over veggies and they are what dominate most of my garden. The little space I experimented with tomatoes on is currently occupied by legumes.

The tight temperature range is something I very much agree with you on. I think climate conducive to their growth play a big factor in disease immunity as well. I’ve seen them thrive like weeds in sub tropical regions. But for some reason, even in controlled conditions, they fail to do that well here in my area.

Exactly my thoughts. I have no idea where she got all that confidence from, though in her defence, she doesn’t have the power of hindsight here like we do. At least there’s no noticeable bend in the wrong direction.

This video was exactly what first came to mind when I read “badly understandable dialogues”! It bothers me that as we got better mics, the actors became more unintelligible instead of the other way as one would predict.

Somehow, I did not see that comment coming. I laughed out loud.

Das ergibt absolut Sinn.

It looks beautiful. Both man made intricate details and natural greenery in one place.

Agreed. The entire homepage being half ad and half shorts hurts my eyes. Good thing we have Revanced and such. I just hope Revanced doesn’t go the way of Vanced anytime soon.

31 grams of pure heroin. I think it’s worth mentioning.

While Singapore has doled severe punishments for possession of paltry amounts of cannabis in the past, the drug in this particular case is incomparable to weed.

Unfortunately, I don’t think employers seeing their employees as mere resources is exclusive to Japan. Though they definitely like to dial it up to 11 there.

I don’t think Reddit will feel a noteworthy sting anytime soon. But that’s okay. Like some here have already said, what matters is fediverse ultimately growing big enough for us to have a sizeable group of people to interact with regarding hobbies or any random topic posted here.

Although, I can’t move on without whining about the bug or whatever it was that prevented me from commenting anywhere for the last …almost a month! On rare occasions, I couldn’t even see anything on my feed so Lemmy clearly has ways to go in regards to matters outside of its contents.

I too was initially wondering that. A comparison with a similar camera to that of the Mars rovers would’ve been more interesting. We have much more capable cams here at home.

“Only” the first two apply to me as I blasphemously love Windows, but I somewhat agree with your observation.

In this day and age of worldwide financial morass? I applaud you for your courage (or affluence maybe), my friend.

That is the goal, yes. One thing I’ve noticed is that the relative scarcity of posts here, especially news, has me frequenting a lot of news sites directly. Which I think is a good thing. Of course, one can’t expect Lemmy to rival Reddit’s content and engagement from the get go. We’ll see where the platform is headed in the future.

I deleted my account so there’s no going back for me. Not that I would anyway. I’d be lying if I said I don’t miss some of the subs I used to lurk on there, but that’s not something I can’t move on from. I still have many informative comments and posts I’d saved up in RES though.

Speaking of which, I came to know way too late that the max number of saved items in Reddit is 1000. Does anyone here have a clue on whether or not Lemmy has a similar restriction? I lost many good posts and comments I’d saved up for years due to that limitation until I switched to RES saving.
