It's so good. Truly impressed with how well it works on mobile, too!
Evolone
I've seen this recommended several times...I think I should give it a go!
I was deep into Genshin for a bit, but fell off the wagon a few months ago. I download Star Rail, and dug it! But time got away from me and I haven't returned for a while. Maybe I'll dive back in!
I’ve online been able to listen to it once but it absolutely slaps.
1Password is a genuine life saver.
I've noticed similar stuff. My home page / active feed stays the same pretty much all day. I'll check it the next day and see some new content refreshed; probably a symptom of kbin being relatively "new" in terms of an influx of activity, so it likely won't be cycling through content as much as, say, Reddit may have been.
Who knows? Still, I'm happy to be here and looking forward to seeing this place grow more!
I'm excited to be here too. I love the UI, and I'm still trying to figure out everything. Still trying to subscribe to the correct magazines to hone in my interests and still trying to interact with users as much as I can. I haven't seen my notifications working very well, though? I had a few replies to some comments earlier and wasn't ever made aware of that...
Also: is there an iOS app/beta for kbin.social yet? Or is the plan to just use the mobile site going forward?
Excited to build this community with everyone!
I’m a lawyer. If I had a dollar for every time I have heard “oh you’re a lawyer? You must have been good at arguing when you were a kid”…or that I must be “good at public speaking”.
It’s funny cause I do commercial real estate contracts and business law…I don’t ever go to court. Most of my day is spent staring at a computer and trying to figure out the best way to change three or four words in an obscure contract provision to best protect my client’s monetary interests. I don’t really ever argue in a professional setting, but I have learned how to think differently, how to see things from various perspectives and anticipate all sides of a negotiation and how I’d best respond.
I also can’t stand all the constant “hey can I ask you a legal question” from friends and family. Or friends and family sending me random contracts and asking me to “look it over for them”. It’s like they assume that just because they know me, I can do that for free, when I spend 10-12 hours a day billing large commercial clients for that same type of work.
That leads me to my next pet peeve: people in my life assuming that my “office job” is a simple nine to five. No. I represent clients all over the world so sometimes I am up at 4:30am to get on an international call at 5:00an. Sometimes I’m working late into the night to finalize a big land purchase contract or commercial office lease; sometimes doing that after putting in a full 9 hours at the office. I don’t get paid time off; I can work at my own pace, sure, and take “days off” here and there, but the work and business and the need for legal advice is constant and I have to catch up somehow, sometime whenever I take “time off”.
I know I’m in a privileged position so I feel kind of shitty about complaining about this, but it gets pretty old. I also recognize that I definitely need to figure out a better way to improve my work/life balance…because this won’t be super sustainable for much longer.
What’s your reasoning behind avoiding lemmy.ml? Just curious as I’ve been trying to find my landing place. I’ve enjoyed kbin but have found it a bit difficult to navigate, whereas lemmy.ml and beehaw.org both seem pretty straightforward.
Love StS…it works so well on mobile!
