  • Good luck it’ll be a blast!

  • Are there any negatives to using a different instance. Does it require work and hoe do you do it?

  • I just blocked Politics.

    I felt that politics posts and discussions on reddit led to a separation of communities and echo chamber when platforms like that an Lemmy would ideally, be politics free.

    It leads to a more friendly positive and inclusive place to be.

    I think it would be impossible to keep politics off Lemmy so best I can do for now is filter it out.

  • Isn’t this the opposite of the guy who said he needed to survive 3 days without pooping?

  • I see your point but There’s no clear answer here.

    The article raises a valid point that Cambodia has extensive history from these weapons spilling over from the Vietnam war and causing civilian fatalities way after the war ended.

    My point here is that just because a war crime(s) is committed one the Russian side, that doesn’t give free reign to the Ukraine side to do the same.

  • Yes but the people who suffer the most with these weapons is the civilians.

    Just because they are already being used, doesn’t mean more should be used.

  • Yes 100% need this but even better would be the swipe to clear above.

    Something I used on Apollo all the time and saved me coming back to posts I’d already seen if I closed the app and reopened it later

  • Are you using wefwef? Maybe try Memmy as I found the ordering of posts varies a lot from app to app

  • Surely the final tyre would have gone further if the ramp did t break?

  • Here’s the book I mentioned. So much love for this book, taught me loads. And if you get it 2nd hand it’s cheap.

  • Cinematographer here. It is a very expensive industry but everybody starts somewhere and the technology has improved so much that even no money productions are doable now.

    Shoot on your phone. Shoot outdoors. Use your mates as actors. Writing a script costs nothing but bare in mind everything you write could cost you money to acquire. The clever bit is how to write that without it costing much.

    Above all story and characters are the most important so focus on those rather than expensive gear.

    There’s also some great books out there. The guerilla filmmakers blueprint helped me out a lot when I started out.

  • This maybe a wefwef thing but most posts atm are just hyperlinks. Some have thumbnails but most don’t. It would be helpful if thumbnails always came up but again not sure if that’s related to wefwef

  • Because this information is very valuable to advertisers who want to target to customer base. If Meta sells them the users who happen to be X, Y, and Z and also happen to be searching recently for a similar product, Boom they’ve got themselves a likely customer. Much easier than advertising to the masses and hoping 0.1% will bite.

    It’s all about discreet money making. The advertisers and Meta only care about how to make money off you.

  • I’ve found it’s a lot easier to get your head around with wefwef on IOS. It’s basically simplified everything into an app I’m used to using with reddit

  • One of my favourite things about early days Reddit was it’s growing community of positivity. There was actual encouragement to be nice to each other and subreddits were built around celebrating stuff.

    Negativity was downvoted into oblivion so you never saw that stuff on the All page and popular pages.

    I’m seeing the same thing with Lemmy right now and hope it continues long into the future. The lack of profiteering should really help with this.

  • I’m not sure how much there is too explain beyond what you saw. But maybe that you’ve only seen one other Anderson film makes you think there’s more to it when rather it is what it is.

    I personally was disappointed, the Wes Anderson style was driven so hard it took away from the movie and waaaay to many characters. All these amazing actors and they had so little screen time they were barely utilised. Tom hanks and Steve Carrel had barely 10mins of screentime. What a waste!

    Less actors would have led to a much more concise and engaging story, like Grand Budapest, Moonrise Kingdom and Darjeeling Ltd IMO. I’d be interested to hear what other people thought of it.

  • Why not get ahead of the curve and start moderating/start a community here already?

    The positivity and enthusiasm on lemmy is so refreshing and each community is growing quickly. It’s like the days of Reddit when it was young.
