Lemmy Reddit That

It has extensions support on mobile. I can’t live without uBlock Origin. I installed Firefox on PC because of synching between Firefox on PC and Firerox and Android. I now stopped using this feature, but I kept using Firefox. I only use Chrome when pages don’t open correctly on Firefox.

Please don’t say that. I bought Fujinon XT-4 and a kit lens last year. I hope I won’t spend too much on accessories. (But most probably I will)

I don’t think those things are obscure/quirky.

Weather prediction - Do you have any knowledge about how weather works or are you just random guessing? I would love to know more about how to predict weather, based on current and past weather.

Lockpicking - are you also trying to pick an actual lock. I am watching LockPickingLaywer on YouTube, it’s really fun to watch, because it’s really easy for him to pick a lock. But I don’t know where to start. I would love to at least try to pick some lock. Just for fun.

Gardening - that’s actually good experience to have. It’s not so easy to know how to garden and if you know that, good job. 👍

Just random thought. Sounds funny.

Yes, I do actually enjoy working out. I am a sotfware developer, but at the end of the work day, I am tired of developing, I am tired of computers, and I just want to go outside. Both cycling and hiking is my therapy and I clear my head when I do it. I like fresh air, nature and views from mountains. Also, I feel really happy when I finish working out, because I know I did something for myself. But it was not always like that. It was hard from the start, but step after step, it became easier and easier for me. Don’t start with too long walks/hikes/rides. Starts with smaller ones, and every few days add more and more. Start with 1km walk for example. Next week add maybe 0,5km more. Next week maybe add some hill or something. Just don’t overdo it. And find some motivation to do it. Do you like nature? Go walking into nature. Do you like dogs? Get a dog and go walking with a dog.

How did I start hiking and why? When I was hiking with my friends, I was always last, and I couldn’t keep up with my friends. Also, it was really hard for me. I was also overweight. So I had to do something about myself. I started walking, but with short walks. Really short ones (like 0,5km only). But every few walks I added more and more. Now I can do really long walks and hikes without any problem.

How did I start cycling and why? Well that’s another story. I really liked one girl, and she was cyclist. I was thinking it would be easier for me to hang out with her if I also start cycling. I would also have something to talk about with her. So I started cycling and cycling and cycling. Of course I was also talking with her, showing my results, etc. She was really big motivation for me. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out with her, we went on a lot of dates, but eventually, we stopped dating. But at the end of the day, she helped me becoming good cyclist and now I can do really long rides, without any problem.

So, moral of the story: I think the main key here is motivation. Find something that will motivate you. And it doesn’t need to be about walking or hiking or cycling. It can be totally different. This worked for me, but something else will work for some other people.

It’s strange, because from main menu, it works, but from this link, it doesn’t.

I am software developer and even I was confused with the choice of servers. At least at the beginning. Also, I dont think manuals (with explanations which server to choose) are great solution either. At least not when you start using it.

I agree with you. It doesn’t need to always be the same server. It could select randomly between top 5 servers like you said and I think that would be great solution.

Why can’t I access this community with Connect for Lemmy? I’m a little bit confused 🤔

I would say picking a server. Regular users shouldn’t be bothered with that. I wouldn’t say multiple server choice is a bad thing, it’s actually great thing, but regular users shouldn’t be bothered with that. Maybe hide server selection behind advanced section or something like that, so regular users aren’t bothered with that, but more tech savy users can still find that option if they would like to. And default option for server can be lemmy.world for example (or any other server). If using lemmy is too dificult for regular users and learning curve is too big, they will not bother with that and they will just leave. I am using Connect for Lemmy now and I think lemmy.world is selected by default. I am just using it and I was never bothered with concept of multiple servers, and I really like that I don’t have to worry about that.

I was not a hardcore reddit user. I made just 2 or 3 posts in those few years I was using reddit. I was mainly reading posts and comments. I was using Sync for Reddit and there I noticed Sync is comming to Lemmy, I signed up to get notification when it’s ready, but that’s pretty much it. But today I wanted to browse reddit and I couldn’t, and I didn’t want to use official app, because it’s just crap, so I registered on Lemmy, searched for Lemmy app, found Connect, installed it, tried it and I have to say I kinda like it. I really hope Lemmy grew up even more.
