i literally JUST installed fakespot lol

Gonna be the odd one out here and say that all of these names are kinda stupid, but Lemmyverse is probably the best of the bunch.

In Ecosia’s settings you can set it to primarily use Google results instead of Bing. Makes it a lot more enjoyable to use.

That’s cool man, big up.

It’s still worth posting, a lot of people browse Lemmy only using the /all feed.

Well, go on, don’t tease us, what are you after?

aw that’s a shame, I was hoping this would actually be a decent romp.

Piefed is another federated social aggregator https://piefed.social/ akin to Lemmy.

This is a popular claim but dubious and probably not true https://skeptics.stackexchange.com/questions/40275/do-elephants-see-humans-the-same-way-humans-see-puppies

It’s better if you untick “show read posts” in your lemmy settings.

I made a list of casual communities on Lemmy awhile ago https://lemmy.world/post/2216085 just subscribe to stuff you like and curate your own feed. Block the politics subs. Boom.

Lobsters has blocked the Brave browser since a scam in 2019. We still block it because they lie about following standards so they scrape and sell copies of websites. I’m sorry for the inconvenience, but they have previously targeted Lobsters by name and have a years-long pattern of bad behavior.

Well, that’s a new one. What you see if you visit it via Brave Browser.

I think maybe they’re testing things on a regional basis and it just hasn’t hit me yet. I dunno, either way I’m happy for now lol

Excellent answer :)

I did play the original many, many years ago. I was thinking of trying it again recently…

Unrelated to this but worth noting that Sync will be broken in the soon to come 1.0 update for Lemmy. The dev for Sync is awol. Might be worth checking out the other apps like Boost for Lemmy, Summit, Thunder, Jerboa, etc.

XManager stills works fine for me, to be honest.

Sync is outdated and will be broken in a future Lemmy update, some features already don’t work (such as hiding read posts, they’re meant to stay hidden but they don’t in Sync). I’d suggest trying out Boost for Lemmy, Summit, Thunder, Jerboa, Eternity - roughly in that order.

Lemmy users try not to be insufferable when Windows is mentioned (Challenge) (Impossible)
