Ooooh, nice! Thanks for the information!

I see. Thanks for the recommendation!

Oh, that’s an idea… I wish I could write scripts myself.

As I identify as ace and don’t think highly of communism, I doubt it.

I’m guilty of not commenting much here on Beehaw, or on Lemmy in general. As a long-time lurker on Reddit, I’ve seen too many examples of pointless arguments in comment threads, with real jerks throwing around fallacies. As someone new on Beehaw, I didn’t want to start any fights in the comments, and so I didn’t reply to any comments to my posts.

Then I realized that someone had deleted their comment to one of my posts, where they asked a genuine question, and I felt awful for not replying to them sooner.

I think some of us here have been burned by Reddit, either by reading a long thread full of awful people or by arguing with the wrong person. So we forget that this isn’t Reddit anymore… it’s Beehaw, where the mods do an excellent job of keeping people on topic and keeping jerks out.

Personally, I’m going to try and reply to commentors more. I apologize if sometimes I think I don’t have anything meaningful to say, so I don’t reply to your comment.

Piped and LibreTube were slow for me when I tried them recently, but that’s probably because I’m using the main instance. Which instances do you recommend?

Yeah, I’m giving the commentor above you the long side-eye.

You can ask the mods to create the community for you.

SchildiChat is a fork of Element that changes how chats look so they’re in message bubbles.

I use RSS.

The adverb is not your friend.

It probably means, “don’t use adverbs all the time.” (I’m guilty of too many adverbs in my writing.)

Thank you for the link to the GitHub issue! I’ve found that the article I’ve linked has also been updated with mention of the issues with the search filters.

The existing communities here on Beehaw have broad topics anyway, and cross-posting isn’t allowed, so you can just choose which one is the most appropriate for your post.

If you think none of the communities here apply, maybe you can try posting to communities on other instances? (Someone correct me if I’m wrong here and it’s not possible: I haven’t actually tried this.)

Please consider that Lemmy is fairly niche already. Unless the topic of the community you want to create is popular enough to gain interest, it’s more likely to end up dead in months.
