That was what persuaded me to delete as well. I was supporting the mods in /r/gis and mentioned that they should strike longer, and some user called me "fucking stupid," and mentioned some bs about how the subreddit is important because people find answers there via google.
So I edited every single one of my 11 years of comments to some text pointing people to Lemmy, and nuked my account. Haven't missed it since.
I sincerely hope that toxicity doesn't find its way here.

Man! This is the first I head about the lead dev of Mlem leaving. I hope the project doesn't get abandoned.

I just hope we don't end up calling them "sublemmys" and whatnot, like what I keep seeing suggested. Let's just make a clean break with reddit and start something new and better.

Thank you @ernest! Please consider setting up a Patreon, or similar, account so I can donate monthly. I've bought you a few coffees but I'd like it to be automatic.
One of my favorite podcasts had an episode on ham radio, and I thought you all might find it interesting.

The tankie thing keeps pushing me away from lemmy, but lemmy seems to be the only software getting clients at the moment. So I'm torn. I want an iOS client badly, but I don't want to support tankies.
I suppose I shouldn't sell out for a nice app though.

That's exactly what they'll say.

There are a lot of subs on that site that have apparently migrated but there are zero posts here.

Can you post a screenshot or photo of your hamclock setup? There's a lot but I think I've got it figured out.

I know there are 288 microblogs, but that's not what I expect when looking in a magazine.

Ham radio. It's a lot of fun and has something for everyone. I like the outdoors, so I took my portable gear to a park and operated Parks on the Air today. There are all kinds of digital modes for people who love computers, there's morse code, there's using kites to hoist your antenna, hot air balloons, talking with the space station, etc. All kinds of stuff. If you're the least bit nerdy, it likely has something for you.

Thank you so much for this well written text!

@ThaijsClan I changed about 4500 comments to an edited one pointing users to lemmy and kbin, along with instructions on how to choose an instance. Hopefully it'll direct at least a couple people here.

I created the powerlifting magazine over on lemmy and have been posting into the void there lol. Hopefully some people move over and use it. Otherwise it feels like I'm just using it as a personal blog or something.

That's why I nuked all my posts and edited every one of my comments to point to kbin / lemmy before deleting my account. They may revert my changes, but I at least wanted to try to prevent them from benefiting from me in any way.

Right. I wasn’t entirely sure if it was supposed to work on Kbin or not. Hopefully one of these days we’ll have a client!

Should it work with Kbin? I get a JSON parse error.

I was thinking that too, but it has been this way for a couple days. I figure it would have caught up by now.
A couple lower popularity magazines I follow from lemmy.ml aren't populating with posts from those communities. Here is an example: [https://kbin.social/m/powerlifting@lemmy.ml](https://kbin.social/m/powerlifting@lemmy.ml) [https://lemmy.ml/c/powerlifting](https://lemmy.ml/c/powerlifting) I made a test post in this community at the lemmy instance to see if it would show up on kbin, and it hasn't. Is the syncing just lagging at the moment or is something broken?
Get ready for the powerlifting event of the year! The International Powerlifting Federation celebrates, for the first time ever in Malta, the 2023 IPF World ...
I've got one coming up soon and am nervous as hell, as usual.
Occasionally after refreshing, I'll see a NSFW post in the random post section of the sidebar although I have the option to hide that content enabled. Is there another way to hide this content?
When I search for a community that exists on lemmy.ml by going to Magazines\>Search, some of them aren't showing up. For example, I want to add gis@lemmy.ml. I've tried searching for just "gis" and for "gis@lemmy.ml". Neither show that community. The same goes for powerlifting and hamradio. The first two are newer communities, made within the last week. the hamradio community, I think is newer as there aren't a ton of posts. Is this just a case of the servers not being "caught up" yet?
