But in the other hand, look at how much the lemmy and kbin user base has grown. The blackouts had a significant impact in increasing lemmy adoption and usage.
Prior to the announced blackouts, I had no idea Lemmy even existed. Now here I am running my own instance.
Also, advertisers Reddit sells to have halted their campaigns until “next week.”
I think while on the surface it might feel underwhelming, it had more impact than you think. And now mods are discussing extending the blackout too.
Hello, this is Lenny!
Have you tried contacting the person who initially created the community? If you click on their name you can see their profile and send them a message directly.
Otherwise click on one of the admin names in the sidebar and send them an message asking about it.
Blood… reaching… boiling point…
Wait, the advertisers have campaigns to take over subreddits? What?!
I never said it was a good idea, and I pointed out the major security concern.
Just be aware anyone can access it if they figure out what address you used.
Plus, you could use it to sign up, and then remove the email address completely in lemmy.world settings once you are logged in. The advantage: no need to sign up for any mail service.
The iOS mobile app, mlem, handles multiple accounts fine in the app. If you are on iOS you can try it via TestFlight. You can switch between accounts easily on the account view.
I think the preferred android app is Jerboa.
You could use mailinator.com which allows you to create a free public mail box you can access. Just be aware anyone can access it if they figure out what address you used. Once you get in, go into your settings and then remove the email from your account (should still be optional in settings).
I alternate depending on my mood. Mostly I read it as shhh it just works.
When that happens, I copy my post text, refresh the page, and submit again. Usually works. If it doesn’t, try selecting a language before saving.
You are welcome!
