That’s definitely not true. Just yesterday I was eating a salad (with chicken and bacon and cheese even) and I had an older coworker pass by and grumpily tell me he didn’t eat rabbit food.

Is this the first time you’ve ever been exposed to humor?

The good news is neither do they.

I don’t think the world needs to be that black and white. You’re basically describing the opposite extreme to one where only boys can play with boys toys and only girls get the frilly pink stuff. Life should always been about compromise and meeting in the middle. I don’t think there’s inherently anything wrong with having something that is traditionally thought of as masculine or feminine. The problem arises when you have someone who doesn’t fit in that box and you force them to conform to that standard.

Plus, gender issues aside, there just aren’t that many kids who would be equally exited to get a doll as they would to get a toy truck. Kids have preferences. And preferring one type of toy over another isn’t always going to be because someone forced them to like it, it could just be that they legitimately like them more.

Yes and no. On the one hand, it would be bad to say something like, this is a doll and girls and only girls can play with it, and this is a tractor and it’s only for the boys. At the same time, it would be nice to have some sort of idea if you’re getting a “traditional girl toy” or one aimed at more masculine thought of activities. I don’t know how you would separate those into categories without assigning gender to them though even though that’s outdated by today’s standards. Maybe something like putting “doll” or “truck” or “sports” or something and let people choose from those regardless of their gender identity.

The Nintendo Switch Pro was sent back to House of Fraser in January

Dude had the only Switch Pro in existence and he got rid of it? He deserves the pants.

I hate it when my job gets loose.

Wouldn’t that mean it’s a popular opinion and the downvote was warranted?

Don’t make it weird, man, just fume without trying to work out whatever sex kink you have going on. This isn’t the place.

Stay mad, little guy.

And you won't even know when or even if you succeed

The book reports you keep throwing up in response beg to differ.

I saw this post which references a 2nd picture in the body of the post, but I can’t, for the life of me do anything to get it to display within Voyager.

If I click on the link button, it opens up in my browser and I can see both pictures. I was wondering if this is a bug in Voyager or if there’s something on my end that’s borked.

 

Right now it looks like this community is nothing more than alien.top bots reposting Reddit threads. I get that this place needs content, but this is absolutely not the content that I am looking for. Are these posts mod approved (aka can I go ahead and add this community to my block list) or are the mods unaware that literally all of the content here is being copied word for word from Reddit?

Edit: Just saw the mod here is the same guy who set up this abysmal experiment. Looks like I’ll be adding this one to my blocklist after all. Oh well, nothing of value was lost.

 

So, I don’t want to block all NSFW communities. However, I do want to pick and choose which ones that I see. As a result, I end up blocking a lot of them, and each and every time it asks me if I want to block that specific community or all NSFW. Is there a way you can add a “don’t ask me again” option for this, or maybe only ask the first (2-3?) time(s)? It’s also pretty easy to accidentally hit the block all NSFW option since it’s the top one and then you have to end up going to the settings and turning it off again. I feel like it would be a lot more user friendly if it only asked you this once instead of every single time.

Thanks.

 

So I was just browsing Lemmy using the web version of my instance and noticed that when I clicked on a user it took me to a page that looks like they have customized it with profile banners, info, links, etc. I have been using Voyager or Memmy for 99.999% of my Lemmy usage up until this point, and literally didn’t even know this profile section existed for users.

Is there a way to access this page within Voyager? Because if so, I can’t seem to find it.

 

It’s becoming increasingly necessary to be able to tell what instance a community is being posted to.

 

I realize this might be a huge/impossible ask, but I figured I’d try anyway. I would like to be able to see comments posted in communities that I have blocked if I click on someone’s profile. Especially if I click on my profile. I know they right now blocking is done through Lemmy and it’s probably a lot of work to go through and change that, but I really wish it behaved like Apollo did with Reddit. When you blocked a subreddit it wouldn’t show up in your /r/all feed but you could still click on someone’s profile and see posts and comments that they made in those subs. I really liked that and wish there was a way to make that happen here. I just made a comment in a community and then blocked it, but I still want to be able to see replies to it and check how many upvotes/downvotes it received. Any chance of making this happen in Voyager?

 

I’ve encountered this several times now, and unless I’m missing something, I can’t find it. I’d like to be able to select a portion of the text from the person I’m replying to from within the reply box. If I hit reply to someone and start typing out a response I should be able to select portions of their text to copy into mine. I know there’s an option to select their text from the comments page, but once I’ve already started typing a reply I’ve either got to abandon it to be able to select some of their text, or copy my reply to another window, then go and copy their text and blend them together. Would be great if we had the option right there on the reply page. Thanks.

Edit: Also, I just remembered the function in Apollo that gave you the option to save your reply every time you chose to leave the reply window. That was amazing, but I have no idea if it’s something that could be added to this without major hassle. But as long as we’re making requests…

 

Really getting tired of seeing references to everything here being a repost from Reddit. We get it, this place needs content and posting old stuff is a quick and easy way to do that. Maybe you don’t need to point that out in the title of every single post you make?

 

So I replied to a comment in a thread the bot posted over in one of the television communities, but I noticed tonight when I was viewing that community in Memmy all of the threads the bot was posting appeared to be empty. Just the title, and the info about where the original post came from and who posted it, but otherwise, pretty useless. I wondered if it was a mistake from the bot or the client I was using, so I tried it over on wefwef, and I saw the links there.

So I guess I don’t know if there’s a bug in how Memmy displays the content, or a bug with how the bot posts, or if it’s just an inconsistency or whatever, but I thought someone might want to know to make some changes.
