What is the long-term storage plan for Lemmy instances? in c/[email protected]

Not a fan of any monetary way to give extra visibility or attention to some comment. I think there's a kind of slippery slope involved in such dynamics. Just my opinion though, nothing wrong with yours.

I'm all for donations, but comment awards just sucked tbh. Opening Reddit felt like opening some microtransaction-ridden mobile game.

What's the point of buying new phones every years? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I've been getting a new phone every 4 years, but it isn't hard to answer your question tbh. New products feel amazing. Companies invest millions if not billions of dollars in marketing to make you crave the newest device, even if yours is quite decent. I think that's also the reason Apple pays so much attention to the packaging and their setup wizards so that getting a new product is an almost magical experience you want to relive. Ask any person with a shopping addiction, they'll explain to you the rush of a new product like no one else.

Bier ohne Alkohol wird zum Massengetränk in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Es gibt sicher eine Erklärung dafür, aber viele Leute haben echt Probleme mit einem breiteren Angebot von Produkten..? Ich kann mich an ein Werbungsvideo für Alkoholfreien Cider auf Instagram erinnern, welches dann nur mit Kommentaren der Art "Ist doch nicht Bier sondern Saft", oder "Alkoholfrei? Das will ich nichtmal gratis xdxd" zugespammt wurde.

Women (or fashion-attuned men) of Lemmy with huge closets, how many of your clothes do you regret purchasing/would you return for the money if you could? in c/[email protected]

I'm learning drawing from drawabox.com, reading and playing some video games. Might do a vitaparcour later.

Sorting by new on Lemmy isn’t a dumpster fire experience like it is on Reddit in c/[email protected]
What OS are you using? in c/[email protected]

MacOS, yes I'm happy. Due to my job in IT I lost all interest in tinkering with computers in any way, shape or form.

Listening to internet radio is great and free! (lemmy.world)
 

So I've been enjoying listening to different radio stations all over the world for the past month and have never felt the need to open Spotify. Might be cancelling my subscription soon. It's also pretty cool to listen to a radio program that's been hand picked by a radio host. Of course that doesn't count if you're an audiophile that needs the best quality, or really want to pick every single song yourself, but for me it's more than good enough. radio.garden has a pretty fun way to discover internet radio stations with an interactive globe you can spin around in your web browser or in app.

Is a Ktipp subscription worth it? (lemmy.world)
 

Hi, I've been wondering if any of you are subscribed to Ktipp? I've read that on top of the great consumer product reviews you also get free law advice if you're in need, which sounds pretty good for 8.- a month. Any thoughts?

What are your favorite Life Hacks in Switzerland? (lemmy.world)
 

Any cool life hacks to save money, have fun or anything that others might not know about, except the SBB half-fare ticket? I'll start with the TooGoodToGo app, which basically gets you restaurant food for much lower prices that you can pick up short before the stores close.
