sorry, I don’t log into my .world account often. I used a script that was floating around during the original drama. I’m not sure if it’s still possible to effectively delete all your data now.

What are you using to track/control the screentime?

I do, and YouTube is my primary Media consumption for both video and music.

That said, I have the family plan which went from $15-23 back a few months ago and it was difficult to keep. I actually cancelled it and used Spotify and some of the available ad-blocking apps, but ultimately didn’t like Spotify, so I came back.

If it were to go up again anytime remotely soon I’d be gone.

Had an account since about 2010, looks like I stopped using it around 2016. Just logged in to see what if anything was left. A few notes, nothing important.

Tried closing my account instead of just leaving it hanging out there and it fails. Guess I’ll try later

I’m trying to support the change. I joined 6/11, I stopped visiting the other site the same time.

I created a community that didn’t exist yet here (in the fediverse) and am trying to post /comment more then I would normally. I wasn’t a lurker over there but I am more engaged here.

Long live the new(ish) fediverse :)

Edit: I also removed my content and deleted my 12yo account on 7/1

There are zero “principles” involved in that sign. It’s one ass trying to piss off other asses.

I quit artificial sweeteners last year. Just use real sugar in moderation. Seems to be working for me. Biggest change is switching to water to drink. Once you conquer that the rest is cake.

Ya, I’m not going back, I wrestled with deleting my content or not for weeks. Decided last night to wipe my history and today I deleted my 12yo account.

Good riddance, not gonna browse in any fashion logged in or not. No clicks from me.

I can’t imagine owning a business and actively promoting your willing to give up sales because of some random person’s beliefs.

I fully understand consumers not shopping at a store that puts up signs you disagree with, you can just go to another one.

Nothing wrong in believing in and supporting the good things. I just think I’d not agitate customers if it were my business.

My reddit average daily traffic dropped 100% 😀

Backblaze, move everything u want to an external attached hdd and then back that up with the backblaze client

I discovered top and think top/day is good for any of the subscriptions, local or all. At least compared to active/hot

I hear a weekend project brewing :)

I do this and even have a card on my tablet/dashboard with how many days left on the filter! Tag is down on the furnace.

I ran across a yt video that lead me to this page. I took the info/ideas here and built my kid chore system. With a dashboard that tracks what he did and total points that is tied to his allowance. Built in some anti-gaming stuff by day/time locking some things. He can only collect most trash cans on trash night. He can only empty the dishwasher once a day etc…

One cool thing, when he scans the trash cans to bring them in. If it’s on trash day and between x-ypm it opens the garage door for him.

He’s at camp this week so they’re now my chores <sigh>

I installed Jerboa earlier today and it is decent. And as I said I’m giving this a real try. I feel like all this place needs is people!

Ive spent 98% of my time here in Lemmy vs. 2% since last night. I’m not deleting my reddit account just yet, but, overall like what I am seeing here. I’m also just trying to figure everything out here.

There are issues/worries about what happens when an instance goes away, where’s that content go? Duplicate/fragmented communities on multiple instances.

I’m more worried about losing the CONTENT that we created on Reddit, etc as a historic/research tool if reddit fails completely. Lot of content with people helping others.

I see/saw a lot of talk about wiping your data before leaving… I’m sure if that happened in larg volumes, they have backups of that content. No idea what legal ramifications there are with restoring them though.

I’m in a wait and see, but w/o RIF I’m gonna be hard pressed to use reddit on my phone, and if old. Goes away that might end it for me.

Correct, and unfortunately it will fragment those users into silos I believe. I saw in one of the stickies, for new users to search for communities before creating duplicates.

I’m tracking my HVAC filter and rest it’s 90days with an NFC tag

Loosely followed an online how-to to create a tracking chore list using NFC tags for my son’s allowance. Automations to nag him on trash night to gather/take out the trash.

A simple Automation that turns on a fan in the basement when the outside temp is above out AC setting to help distribute cool basement air.

Outside security lights on/off at dusk/dawn

House auto arms/disarms (Alarmo) when everyone leaves or someone arrives (via life 360 integration)

On trash day, after noon if my son scans (NFC) one of the trash cans, the garage door opens to let him in/put them away.

My son gets a notification when he comes home from school if we got mail (aka the mailbox was opened that day)

Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

I figured out how to subscribe to communities, but not sure how this works. Like I wonder if when a community is created if it propagates to the federation, or if you can have multiple “XYZ” communities.
