10 days after 3rd party reddit app shutdown, Lemmy's top 10 instances combine for a thriving userbase of 234,000 in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

I'm guessing most of the Beehaws at least have duplicates since they cut themselves off.

It's weird that there isn't a US-specific Lemmy instance in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] Knoll0114@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago

Yeah I assume the reason there isn't is because the general ones are US-centric by default and then everyone else has to have somewhere specific to go. But I guess if they want their own dedicated place too why not?

We're paying them to produce this pollution.

Australian Teen Locked in Solitary Confinement for 500 Days in c/world@lemmy.world

That should definitely be illegal.

Five Palestinians killed as Israel launches air attacks on Jenin - Developing story in c/world@lemmy.world

I don't think they'll stop until they have the whole historic area of Israel (which includes more than just Palestine.) Crazy that this is allowed.

Anyone have trouble getting into Oathbringer? (lemmy.world)
 

The WoK was a 5 star read for me, WoR a 3 star and now I'm struggling to get properly into Oathbringer. I think I'm on chapter 10. Anyone else have this problem? Does it get more interesting or am I just not a Sanderson person?

Asking non-Americans to pay in USD (lemmy.world)
 

Currently in Egypt and they just asked us to pay in USD cash for an added activity but, not being American, we don't have USD. We have the local currency and the ability to get that out at ATMs, but no way to access foreign currency. So annoying but they accepted local in the end.

New Gold Pass in c/clashofclans@lemmy.world

I don't think it's worth it tbh. Already spend too much on this game and subscription models in general wear thin.

AITA for buying my wife chocolate? in c/aita@lemmy.world
[–] Knoll0114@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

NTA she's probably just insecure about having eaten the chocolate faster than she thought.

I'm thinking we should have a central post for all the book sublemmys so we can easily find them. The ones I'm aware of are: Lemmy:

Fediverse:

Sublemmys in other languages would be great to add here too! I'll keep adding more as I find them.

What do people think of vegans like Saudi Prince Khaled bin AlWaleed? in c/vegan@lemmy.ml

I don't think it's fair to say OP has 'obviously' been distracted by it but I otherwise agree.

What do you think of r/books silence on the API changes? (lemmy.world)
 

Unlike many other large subreddits r/books has not made any statements about the API changes. I did try and post something about it but it ended up getting deleted. At 22.1 million users this would be a pretty significant addition to the protest.

Does anyone know why there hasn't been anything official?

How many of you are using Bookwyrm (federated alternative to Goodreads)? (lemmy.world)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/42666

I recently discovered Bookwyrm and am really liking it. It's not quite as full-featured as The Storygraph or Goodreads but it covers all of the most important functionalities and it's federated which I appreciate. Something that it is missing Vs either The Storygraph or Goodreads at the moment is volume of reviews (ie. Volume of users.) However, your review won't get lost in the sea so much and I've found that it's been quite easy to find readers with similar interests.

Anyway, who here is using Bookwyrm? What's your account so we can all follow each other? (Mine is Unfreeze4257@books.theunseen)
