Huh weird. I’ve got an account on .world and if I use that with Sync, posts don’t show get marked as read for me. Wonder what I’m doing wrong.

Really? Do posts show as read for you? Maybe Lemmy.world is still running an old version of Lemmy. Once sh.itjust.works patched to a new version 8 or 9 months ago, Sync became completely unusable for me.

Not gonna lie, it brought a smile to my face when you were sitting in your house on a cool spring day, reading a somewhat plausible but lengthy story about a captivating subject. Then you got a slight suspicion that this story almost seemed too good. Too perfect for the situation. How could this random person on the Internet have such a great story about being a snake charmer, a stunt pilot, or whatever. Then it hits you just like when back in nineteen ninety eight the undertaker threw mankind off hell in a cell and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcers table.

I’ve been on sh.itjust.works for the last couple of years. The admins are cool as hell. Highly recommend.

I know right?!

my neighbors are trekkies and Linux, as a fan of windows and star wars

Made this a couple weeks ago for you

Glad to be of assistance, homie

Lol one of the comments was:

first day on lemmy, and this is the shit i see right off the bat. I found my reddit replacement.

I felt exactly the same way

Lack of sports content is a bit of a rough spot for Lemmy. This is one of the few places where Linux memes get substantially more engagement than a super bowl thread.

Side note, the superb owl community here is pretty great.

Lol same here. Jesus that whole site is atrocious now.

Someone else suggested saying when all the 3rd party API supported apps stopped working - but there’s only so much room on a meme text box, ya know?

I remember 2 years ago trying out Lemmy and getting a few laughs about beans and trying not to poop. I thought “this is ok, but I don’t think this will ever replace Reddit in my day to day.”

But I stuck with it and have come to love and appreciate Lemmy. The number of users has continued to grow and I feel like there’s enough content here now that I never feel bored. Plus I feel like even small posts and comments get attention and we’re not just screaming into the void.

So happy cake day to all who did the same thing!

Honestly, if my PM never pestered me about the status of my tickets, I would never close them. Some of us need the pestering!

Yeah I regularly spend hours here every day with no lack of content. For example, did you see the guy with the thermal camera a couple days ago? Facisinating.

Doesn’t seem to work. Clicking search just opened a full screen as on mobile with no close options.

Can we also get a MIDI file to play at full volume whenever I open Lemmy?

I just finished listening to Duma Key by Stephen King. For some reason, the narrator thought it was a good idea to lower the volume of their voice and nearly whisper the really dramatic parts. It’d be like “**Her father was a **^smdfprhfjs”

I had to rewind so many times that I was ready to quit. Fantastic book otherwise, but having an option to jump to text real quick would’ve been a life saver.

Are there ads on Sync? I’ve been using it exclusively for the last week or so and haven’t seen a single one.
