I’m physically here. Mentally…I’m running a little late LMAO

Sir, this is !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com.The meme was just a cover, we were never going to pay anyways LMAO

I am not aware of any comm here yet, but please be sure to sure anything of interest you find at !diyelectronics@programming.dev I welcome everything DIY and electronic over there to include robotics :)

NGL, I’ve seriously thought about it, but my AI skill set is very much still “in development” and I have tons of other projects to get done on my projects list

For all this AI BS we’re going through, why is there not one to actually automate budgeting. Of all the fucking apps they’re shoving down people’s throats, the one thing I’ve been waiting for still hasn’t come. Wtf.

I really need it, anything that doesn’t automatically pull in transactions reliably, between multiple accounts and reconciles transactions between them (matching a 10.39 transaction on one of my privacy cards to the corresponding bank pull transaction) is just gonna fall apart for me in a matter of months. (At best)

Envelopes, spreadsheets, YNAB, Quicken all have been tried, all got forgotten about -_-

Lol don’t forget @LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone! 😂

You’d think, but from what I understand the Invidious/YT cat and mouse game is rather intense so the larger public instances often don’t work and it’s better to use smaller private or personal instances instead

So most who care have opted to just set something up to handle YT links on the fly

Idk, I don’t keep track of it I just click the links lemming give me lmao

I do think the last one I tried was peertube.wtf a couple days ago

Videos without audio? Imgur can handle mp4s and imgur links autoplay in the Lemmy apps ive used (Boost and Voyager)

Videos with audio, well really YT is the best place, pretty much anybody who cares about YT tracking/ads/views will have processes/plugins in place to handle YT links. Like there are plugins that will automatically modify a YT link to a designated invidious instance or whatever

If you really really don’t want to upload to YT, a Peertube instance is your best bet, unfortunately just don’t expect it to be particularly…fast. Every Peertube video I’ve tried to watch buffered every 10-30 seconds, but I don’t blame them, video is very intense, expensive and difficult to handle compared to every other media type

We can actually talk about things without overwhelming censorship, strange algorithms, or ads.

think the biggest instance, lemmy.world, not being operated by the Lemmy devs is also a good health indicator

Doubly so considering how the main devs manage their instance according to their highly controversial political views LMAO

Ah I get it now, you’re most likely a .ml alt account, so goodbye!

Tankie definition: "authoritarian communists, especially those who support acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof.

You would warn newcomers about the Tankie Triad too if you had repeatedly seen all the stories of “I tried Lemmy, but it just seemed like a bunch of tankies, turns out it was just because I was on .ml when I tried it again”

There’s tons more that never came back and go on life thinking Lemmy is Voat 2.0. I know this because there’s plenty of comments on Reddit whenever Lemmy comes up about “it’s just Tankies over there”

Yes, how dare I try to protect Lemmy’s rep, I don’t want to see this place become Voat 2.0

It’s not a straight deal breaker for me, but it’s a pretty big barrier, I just can’t leave Boost lol 😔

Sounds like it’s coming along

Heh I’m finding out so much about how inadequate the blocking system on Lemmy is the past couple days. I’m not a conspiracy theorist type of person, but it’s so bad it almost feels… intentional lol

Welcome happy you’re here! We’ve got memes on deck at !memes@lemmy.world and if you’re a programmer of some kinds we got !programmer_humor@programming.dev to scratch that itch and be sure to drop a shit(post) off at !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world or if you want SCIENCE and memes head over to the wonderful !science_memes@mander.xyz or if you just want regular SCIENCE mander.xyz is full of sciency comms like !science@mander.xyz and !astronomy@mander.xyz. !onehundredninetysix@lemmy.blahaj.zone is also nice this time of year, but you’ll have to post before you can leave.

We’re not without our cons though, biggest problem we have are probably the Tankies (Authoritarian “communists” who will overlook any wrong doings of China, Russia, NK because they think their governments are the “gold standard”), but here they’re mostly on the Tankie Triad lemmy.ml, lemmygrad and hexbear. You have a Reddit.org account so iirc you only need to worry about .ml, but on Lemmy you can do a personal instance wide block if you’d rather just not deal with them. If you want to see what they get up to from a safe distance check !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works

YEA!

Please send help

It wasn’t my intent to criticize Piefed either, just trying to not over sell it to new users, I’d rather not them be thinking it’s a perfect drop-in replacement, and then have a sour taste in their mouth when they run into an issue

Np! If you have any specific interest, feel free to ask and I can probably find some good comms for you
