  • Still have the first computer I bought with my own money, and it still works. It’s an Amiga 500 from 1991. I fire it up and play ancient games with it once in a while, on the ancient 1084s CRT monitor.

    Also had one of the super rare A3000T’s but unfortunately the battery corroded the motherboard while I had it stored away. I didn’t even learn about that problem until researching what had gone wrong with my beautiful Amiga tower. C’est la vie. At least I was able to get an image of the 120MB SCSI hard drive, which I can boot up in an emulator and relive the glory days of 1993.














  • Just happened to me today (not for the first time) when I questioned somebody’s idiotic meme with a post that just said “What is this slop?” which was apparently worthy of removal. Even mild criticism is not ok with them because their bubble is very, very thin.

    It’s fine, whenever it happens it reminds me to block the community and the author. I recommend you do something similar to make Lemmy a nicer place to be.

    I know better than to engage with those… people. But sometimes I don’t notice the domain on the community I’m reading from the All feed. Wish there was a way to just hide everything from those instances on my feed (without standing up my own instance).






  • +1. I’ve been using Voyager since it was called wefwef. It was the closest thing to Apollo I could find at the time and it has worked great for me for 2 1.5 years now. The team has done a ton of improvements over the last 2 1.5 years as well so it’s had great support.

    To be fair I haven’t looked at any other apps for Lemmy since I stumbled on this one in the early days after the first reddit migration due to the API fiasco, but that’s because this one suits me just fine.

    edit: Guess it hasn’t quite been 2 years yet.
