Professional fundraiser, having worked in non-profit my entire career (and my university degree was in a social sciences field). I wouldn’t call myself technically proficient, but I’m technically savvy - I was an early adopter of the internet as a teen, and have been online in some form or another since the mid-90s. Fuck spez.

Yeah, this is pretty much my standard now too. I was in hospital for a day surgery recently and was more than a little taken aback at the fact that I was one of the only people masking.

A wise choice, it’s a time-suck for sure.

Ahhh good ol’ FPS death. I never make it that far, mainly because I love to embark somewhere with a waterfall.

Dwarf Fortress, been playing it off and on for many years now. I happily bought the steam version when it came out!

My Reddit experience over the past few years has been primarily focused on smaller communities, so I’m finding Lemmy somewhat similar. But I am definitely enjoying being more active and engaged on here (as I slowly overwrite and delete all my old comments on Reddit).

You’ve already gotten advice on preserving, but what about sharing/donating the bounty?

Some cities have public portals where you can post the location of your fruit tree and indicate people can help themselves. There’s also this webpage. And failing that, you could reach out to a local foodbank - they may be able to have volunteers come collect the fruit?
