autumn

People are trying to seed new communities with content, but i think they overdo it by copying too much stuff over at once

I use paprika 3 to extract and save recipes - works well enough that I eventually sprang for the paid version

Implementing something like that for something as open source and decentralized as lemmy sounds tricky. People can already donate directly to both instances and the lemmy project.

What a surprise

Too Good to Go - buy restaurant surplus food for cheap

Ride share availability of any kind is light-years better in urban areas, as is public transit.

Any secondhand shopping like craigslist or Facebook marketplace will also have much better stuff.

Isn't FBI too high level to prevent swatting? Seems like if the local police are getting sent out, any solution would have to happen at that level instead.

Like if the local PD couldn't figure it out with 43 reported swattings on the couple mentioned in the story, how is a national database going to help?

What was their reasoning? It wasn't as if you were writing other students' papers. What's wrong with some notes?

I find that swype (and other similar typing apps) make the small keyboard on portrait mode an asset. It doesn't always guess perfectly, but it does so enough for my writing needs.

I'd give the split keyboard a try if i saw a demo.

Hope you feel better soon, scibot 😔

Unfortunately, there is very little research that has evaluated the efficacy of any of these approaches in reducing the risk of burnout. Especially rare are studies modeled even loosely on randomized control trials. More common are studies with a single intervention group of volunteer participants for whom there are rarely follow‐up assessments after treatment has ended78. It is not yet clear whether burnout is generally susceptible to a range of strategies or whether it is crucial to fit the strategy to the specific context of a workplace to be effective.

OP why would you do this to us 😭

Definitely agree that lemmy has a wild west feel to it right now, and like you, i love it.

But most people have very low tolerance for interruption to their experience and just want it to work, no matter who is running it. For my part, I'd like to see the process of searching for new communities and accounts get smoothed out, and maybe process of linking to a post on another instance.

On the other side of the coin, a lot of the tools needed for effective moderation on a large scale are still in the process of being made. Beehaw defederating from 2 other large instances threw a wrench in the works, but hopefully they'll refederate once better tools are added.
