She/Her
This is a great suggestion. It’s a very useful thing to have. People are always asking me for help with things, I’m the only one with tools I guess and I only have a small box, mostly cheap stuff from harbor freight. But it works!
I’ve relaxed with it quite a bit recently. But I still like having them on me at all times. There’s times I like wearing it. Especially certain places like the doctors.
I leaned no one on Lemmy are as helpful as they seem. Nor as nice… I gave up on trying to run my own instance… My life is too busy and hard to find time for this anyway…
Not quite. From what I’ve read, I think only text is downloaded, pictures and other media are just links. So not everything needs to be downloaded. Also to trigger/maintain this connection (federation) at least one person from your instance needs to be subscribed.
But you won’t find this community in the search bar because you’re not federated yet. So to trigger the initial federation you’ll need to search for the full URL, the entire URL including “https://” (https://lemdro.id/c/android) It won’t show up at first, so try again in a few seconds, and sometimes you’ll need to try a lot of times if the instances are running slowly. But eventually your instance will find the other community on the other instance.
But at the time I’m writing this lemdro.id is apparently offline so it won’t work at all right now.
I ended up just starting over…
I wish I could. The whole computer is completely frozen! Just the mouse will nudge a little very very slowly. I don’t think I can get another terminal open. And yes it’s very slow hardware. It’s a raspberry pi 3.
Why are you going to move? Genuinely curious.
I’m trying to figure that out actually. I think ideally end to end encryption is important. No mega corporations like Meta. Being able to send pictures, videos, and pdfs. Being able to have calls both voice or video. I’m not sure any messenger has all of these things, but I’m on the hunt!
Yeah, I mean on lemmy.
This is a missing feature. I think it’s going to come in version 0.0.35 but I might be wrong.
The Queen would like a word with you.
As someone that’s never used RSS, how does it work?
I might be wrong. But I think we lemmy. world users still see Beehaw because we have old versions of everything locally. But we can still interact with it. The example you shared is a local user so that kinda tracks?
I’ve done this using Google voice. But they’re probably other options out there.
Maybe Element is more your thing then?
Right! I’m enjoying all these FOSS alternatives lately. I really hope they’re here to stay.
Thanks for the thorough and understandable response! You wouldn’t believe how many responses aren’t even a full sentence much less an explanation.
Probably my wheelchair. It’s a pretty nifty little chair that has quite a few unique features. Also I would need it to get there anyway. Otherwise maybe one of my drawings.
