Anyone else thought the title was referencing to the book of George Orwell, Animal Farm?

“Four legs good, two legs bad” - Snowball, Animal Farm.

They recently (two days ago) did a massive revoke on the paid certificates. All known sellers got hit with the massive revoke and it is at the moment a bit of a mess.

Rumor goes that Apple also hit actual developers with the revoke hit. So curious how that goes.

Jeez this is insane. US has some weird laws. I hope the children got quickly better and the school got fined or something.

Thanks, going to try out LibreOffice. Does it has same (or similar) functions as Word itself?

[–] ModernRisk 3 points 3 weeks ago

Thanks, I’ll look into Markdown!

Or is it about saving notes to cloud?

No, that’s not it. I just want a Word-alike thing that allows me to put a password on it and use it as a ‘modern diary’ (like how you can make chapters and such in Word).

Not sure if I explained it well, English isn’t my native language. So wasn’t sure how to explain it

I have a Word document saved into my ‘personal account vault’ which is for personal thoughts (like a diary). Does this mean, they’ll automatically upload this too into their cloud?

If that’s the case, not sure what to do. Tempted to go back to old school diary but risk the chance of my family finding it.

Israel will claim “it is Hamas fault”. Seriously I’m immensely perplexed and devastated that the world leaders are allowing this to happen.

My comment might get removed (like it did a year ago) or banned but whatever. Israel government is basically just Nazi 2.0. Their whole ideology, behavior, racism, superior complex and hatred is the same if not worse than Nazis.

Not only that, they’ve been doing this stuff for decades. Longer than Nazi-Germany.

Thats going to be a day-one purchase for me.

Meh. Honestly don’t believe it. Stuff like this was before too and it was apparently fake.

I used to be a social smoker (cigarettes, shisha and randomly a cigar). However, I quit years ago with it.

I once had a thought “we are like a lucifer lighter, isn’t it? We smoke, smoke and smoke. Get all burned up and then throw away our lives because of it”.

At that moment, I told myself; no more. Quit cold-turkey. I never drink alcohol (due to religion).

For a while I had been using the “To Do” list that’s built in through Hotmail and the iOS app.

But nowadays I’ve been using TickTick app for the to-do’s.

Your account is 1 day old and making such a comment. I get what you are trying to do but it won’t work. I’ll just… you know, block you. So I won’t see your comments.

I was not sure where to post this, so apologies if this isn’t the right place and would like to know where I should go.

For a while now, I cannot see my own posts. Despite having made 33 posts.

It will show up as if I have never made one

I have this particular problem with several Lemmy apps: Avelon, Memmy, Mlem and Voyager.

I’m curious if other people have a similar issue or what I can do to fix this. I tried to log in/out & delete and reinstall app. Doesn’t work unfortunately.

I attached an image of what it shows me when, I try to check my own posts.

 

Title basically:

Is there A way to download all my pins on Pinterest?

Because I want to save all of the things I once categorized and then leave the PoS garbage app and its company with its BS ads.

Anything that would just download everything in one Zip or Winrar and put it into one big folder would do it.

Apologies if this isn’t the right place to ask.

 

Do you buy physical books you have already read?

For example; I have read a book named “The Words We Keep” digitally. I loved it, it really resonated with me because it’s about something - I personally have and struggle with as well.

Thinking to buy the book physically but feel like, I can’t justify it due to the fact that I’ve already read it.

I don’t really re-read books either.

Might be a stupid question actually however how do I import Lemmy’s RSS into an RSS-App?

I’m using “Feeed” RSS app on iOS. I downloaded the RSS-Feed link of for example Books.ml but when I try to import it into the app, it says “No data”

I have added an image of what, I mean.

Am I doing it wrong?

EDIT: This might be the wrong community, I have realized. But not sure which community, I should go to otherwise.

Why does the world, mostly Presidents (and Redditors apparently) condemn the Hamas attack but never condemn the killing of innocent men, women and children in Gaza by Israel (government)?

The death toll of Palestinians apparently seemed to be on 8K(?). And still counting up.

But the Presidents seems to just seriously not give a fuck.

Has the world not learnt from the past?

  • WW1?
  • WW2-Nazi war?
  • Srebrenica massacre?

Why is Israel allowed to basically do what the Nazi Germany did and calls it defending themselves (of innocent men, woman and children) but normal civilians protesting, asking for ceasefire or chanting an sentence is “immensely hateful and must be prohibited”?

Has the world gone nuts?

  • Had to just lose my thoughts. Been really nagging me.
 

So, I’m trying to make the switch from Pinterest to Pixelfed.

However I’m curious if there’s a way to instant migrate all pins to Pixelfed. Yes, it is more than 10K pins.

Bonus question: How to hide NSFW content on Pixelfed?

How has it been for you? Do you get FOMO feeling sometimes?

I use Reddit less and less but haven’t fully quit yet. Always have this odd feeling of FOMO regards content.

Not only that, some subreddits haven’t migrated to any other platform unfortunately. Or they have but the content is very little compared to Reddits content.

Note - wasn’t sure where to post this. So if this wasn’t the right place, apologies!

The issue I have with Reddit - it’s full of hateful people and most content is just bots karma farming.

EDIT: Thanks for all the responses!

EDIT 2: Thanks for the ones that mentioned RSS-Feed. Just got it and it’s amazing. Still manage to only follow the subreddits that I like without crapads.

 

Really like the new Memmy, feels overall smoother. However, I was curious what happened to the Saves posts and comments section.

Did the location change or removed and reimplemented later on?

Take your time though. Already happy you’re back.

 

Quite much the title but is it possible to implement FaceID or Pin lock?

 

There’s a bug when you edit your comment, to correct a spelling mistake for example.

It either works and ‘saves’ - it doesn’t save. Or it does not work at all.

Great App! (self.avelon)
 

So, when first Avelon was released it was rough just like any new app will be.

I kept it on my phone and was wondering how it would develop and it didn’t disappoint.

Love Avelon looks, feels and works. Especially the grouping of communities.

Keep it up!

Just curious, has the development stopped for Memmy?

It’s my favorite app for Lemmy however there are some small issues and it’s been quite a while since an update.

Just hope everything is okay.
