Oh shit, so that’s what it was…

Oh shit, so that’s what it was…
Amen! I’m tired of these skinnies telling us what to do. Smh.
Using Jerboa at the moment! Not sure about moderation tools, but it feels pretty responsive and the overall layout looks quite nice in the dark theme.
Although it gets a tad confused when I’m logged in in occasion, so it sometimes thinks I’m not?
Still, you can use it without logging in, so it’s a pretty good experience that just needs some polishing.
Actually saw this in the “trending communities” section (For some reason lol)
(Don’t think it had an icon even)
you like boobs? smh
gonna downvote you, darn boob-lover
(If i’m not wrong, green-ish user here) When you click on “Communities” that’d be only the communities inside the instance that you made your account in.
I generally use this to look for specific communities: https://browse.feddit.de/ It should look across all lemmy instances to find the one you wanted
Jokes aside, it’s a bit of a shame, but it’s not like he’s gone forever, he’s just taking a (very well deserved) break. And if i may speak for most if not all of us, we’ll be waiting for his return!
I suspect my RSS feed will be oddly empty at jan 1st.
Oh well, back to watching citation needed
That does sounds nice, but on the other hand… i do like free stuff, instead of paying for subscriptions…
That does work to lower the strain in your eyes (coming a person that has had one in their phone for years now) but as far as i know, that is mostly meant to lower the amount of blue light coming from your display, as to not affect your sleep cycle
edit: typo
That’s fair, i’ve had used a few apps for long periods of time with light mode and it is pretty nice, although i’m biased towards dark mode. Maybe it also has to do with the enviroment around you? Since a dark theme while outside in a sunny day would surely put some strain in your eyes?
(Not to be that guy, the post just got me curious about it, so i looked up some more details) (Also, i rant a bit, so feel free to not read this)
Although in the article i checked, the American Academy of Opthalmology (AAO) doesn’t specifically mention Dark Mode as something that reduces or increases eye strain, it does mention that lowering the brightness (or setting dark mode in your devices) does lower the amount of blue light that the screen displays, allowing you to sleep better, by not confusing your brain into thinking that it’s still daytime. (Feel free to correct me on this, other places i saw about this mostly cite anecdotes about how well it worked for them, regarding their sleep cycle.)
It does later say that one of the ways to possibly reduce eye strain when using a screen for a long time is by lowering the glare and brightness, by dimming the screen or the like.
So my take would be that maybe a full pitch black/AMOLED theme could start putting more strain into your eyes, the regular dark grey-ish should be right, but eyes differ from person to person so it’d boil down to: Find a middle ground that works for you and doesn’t make your eyes hurt? (Also take some time to let your eyes rest, lookup the 20-20-20 rule in the 2nd article)
(Sorry about the wall of text, i might’ve gotten a bit too into this)

We’ve been living a lie…
Welp… time to move everything from authy to bitwarden looks like
Oh, didn’t know bitwarden also managed 2FA, could’ve saved the space from using authy. Is that a (somewhat) new feature or is it just me being blind and missing it?
Thanks a lot for the update and for the awesome instance! Signing up here was one of the better decisions I’ve made in a while.
Here’s to many more weekly updates!
Not as hard as the pedo man would, I’d imagine
That’s actually a perspective I haven’t seen anywhere else or thought about it, totally agree with it. We don’t really have the backing of a multi-million dollar company on our backs ourselves. (On that note, thanks dear admins, or whoever, for hosting this awesome instance, y’all rock lol)
If so, instead of waiting idly, I’d vote for going for the safer option and defederating. (Since imo, meta’s presence has more power to do harm than to do good)
I mean, that’s fair and i mostly agree, but i think it’ll stay around (for the better or worse) as regular vr headsets have, with them also being (somewhat less) expensive and not that useful beyond a handful of niches. Although to a lesser extent since it’ll be stuck inside apple’s ecosystem.
