I can’t come up with a title

I have this trouble too sometimes. I figure just approach it like you would alt text. “a picture of a bunny I took today,” “bunny in the evening,” “bunny looks left,” might be boring but it’s accurate, and people are here for the cute animal pictures, not for my clever titling. Thanks for making cool stuff on Lemmy!

I am confused on if you would rather stay on .world or if you would like to move, or if you are ambivalent. (I personally favor moving and getting you installed as mod on the sdf community, but I’m also not the only user of the fox community, hence the thread!)

• Pinging !foxes@lemmy.world mod @mjokfox@pawb.social / @mjokfox@lemmy.world for input
• Pinging !foxnews@lemmy.sdf.org mod @Greyscale@lemmy.sdf.org mod for input
• Pinging !foxes@lemmy.world recent contributor @ickplant@lemmy.world for input, thanks for all the cute fox pics!

@Elevator7009@lemmy.zip, @Elevator7009sAlt@ani.social, hi! This is a comment mention.

Asked the mod of the bun alert system, conclusion is that we’re two different places and should not consolidate. Ah well, but hey, less mess on my end.

Oof, made a post about consolidating !bunnies@lemmy.world and !rabbits@lemmy.world, and saw this a few days later. Although since both are lemmy.world no big loss, and I did leave an option for people to vote for creating a new community and moving there.

So then I figured I was going to message the mod of !bun_alert_system@lemmy.sdf.org. Awhile ago I said it was good for us to stand on our own, make options, but combining our reach would probably be good if we allow the same content (I think they might be different in that the alert system is just pictures and videos of bunnies in real life, and my community also allows other bunny-related content like media about them, questions about taking care of rabbits, though in practice it is also mostly just pictures and videos of bunnies and any other content like links to video games featuring bunnies usually comes straight from me…). But lemmy.sdf.org is also one of the biggest servers (though smaller than .world), and I saw the discussion below about getting people off the biggest servers too, not just the single biggest one of lemmy.world.

Also, would probably be bad having just put out a poll on consolidating !bunnies and !rabbits, and then doing a second consolidation towards !bun_alert_system.

What is a bunny lover to do? I feel it is easier to consolidate towards existing communities than to get everyone to agree to move to a new one.

!linux4noobs@lemmy.world !linuxupskillchallenge@programming.dev

Every single time I have used the Lemmy Scheduler I did it from Safari or Firefox. I do not have a lemm.ee so I cannot test posting from there unfortunately. I’ll try to post TO lemm.ee and edit this comment with my result

Hey, would love if you could crosspost to !bunnies@lemmy.world. I mod it so it should be alright.

No 500 errors on my end. What instance was the account you were you trying to schedule from on, and what instance was the community you were trying to schedule a post to on?

Link you put says Feb 28 as did other things I saw. I imagine some people might just read your comment and not click the link so you might want to edit your comment

Oh boy. Well at least you can always obscure it with [text to click of a more reasonable length](the super long URL).

Care to repost to !hfy@lemmy.world?

I prefer the drip-feed as a regular user. Seeing a big influx of posts in one day from a community I follow tends to drown out other communities I follow, and feels intimidating. I’ve currently signed up to see bunnies, owls, foxes, and snakes. If I see mostly snakes at the expense of foxes, owls, and bunnies I’m not going to be too thrilled. (In practice, this doesn’t happen, !snakes@lemmy.world isn’t that active, if you like snakes please post! I do whenever I run across some pleasing snake content in my regular internet browsing, maybe I should put more effort into explicitly finding snake and fox stuff again…)

I am more willing to let it go if I followed some giant community with lots of subscribers, because what did I expect, a big community is going to have lots of people wanting to post stuff. But if it is a small niche…

As a poster trying to keep Lemmy active and as a mod, I find things in bursts. So I break them up with https://schedule.lemmings.world/. Post one thing right now, do all the rest on that scheduler so they come out a couple days from now. That way I still get to “post” all at once—just into the scheduler, which will actually submit the posts in a more spaced out manner for me.

Just the Lemmy website, iOS

I was about to say thank you because I have just been finding some random image downsizer online, then I toss it through an EXIF stripper app on my phone and post. But then I checked and found ffshare appears to be just an Android app :( I guess that is what you meant by “Android, at least”. I Lemmy from an iPhone and I’m not about to get an Android emulator on my computer just to use ffshare.

Self-plug: !bunnies@lemmy.world, also active, posts don’t overlap with !bun_alert_system@lemmy.sdf.org

Also !snakes@lemmy.world, though I don’t run that one.

I realize my wording “Gave up on All” probably came off as if I wanted to use it and was disappointed I couldn’t, so I appreciate you trying to give me advice on how I could still use it. I’m happy doing things this way though. I find Subscribed far easier to use than playing whack-a-mole with the many, many meme communities that inevitably have a “haha the world SUCKS” post, and then understandable but still-not-good-for-me-personally vents about the world sucking in the comments. Or news communities (not just politics!) that inevitably post something that could tie into politics, and then all the politics in the comments. You said it’s exhausting yourself, and I simply don’t have the energy to put quite that much effort into it. If you find it worth it anyways, more power to you, but I really don’t mind missing out on something I might like in exchange for missing out on 1) stuff I really don’t like and 2) a lot of stuff I’m ambivalent about and would rather just scroll past.

I do look at !newcommunities@lemmy.world, which is good enough for me in my opinion re: discovering new stuff, and although this isn’t really the purpose of !fedigrow@lemm.ee, it often tells me about communities I didn’t know about. And sometimes I click Communities on an instance and wander through the list.

I did take Algorithms.

The definition we learned (let me know if I am wrong) is that an algorithm is a concrete set of steps to accomplish some goal in a finite amount of time given legitimate inputs.

Although in practice we use this more for stuff with a math formula and/or stuff you code. “Given the input of the world, if your eyes see it is raining outside, grab the umbrella from your closet. If you don’t see the umbrella, search for it. If the search takes 5+ minutes, just go to your destination” is an algorithm for trying to not get rained on, but in practice nobody’s going to be using that word that way.

I think the definition used online today is “some computer code that I can’t reliably determine the input/output of, that is used to my/society’s disadvantage in an exploitative way.”

Words evolve, and the word you learn in academia sometimes also gets used in real life and its usage changes in real life from what you would use in academia. And sometimes academia keeps using it that way, and real life keeps using it their different way, and so you use the same word while talking about slightly different concepts. And sometimes people in real life use it the academic way, others don’t, making things even more confusing… you just have to be aware people are using the same word to talk about two different things (or in this case, one group uses the word to talk about an unpleasant subset of the thing the other group uses the word to talk about) and clear up that misunderstanding.

Leftist into tech.

My feed got very overwhelmed by depressing relatable memes that, guess what, had leftist views expressed in the comments, and posts that were not politics but ended up getting into there anyways.

I might be leftist but damn if outrage and despair isn’t exhausting, I come to social media for fun, not to be angry and sad and hopeless.

Gave up on All incredibly quickly, only use Subscribed (I explicitly excluded anything political from Subscribed). So much less outrage and despair, so many more cute animals.
