Ooh, this looks cute.

I’m hoping this’ll be funny/wholesome like an anime that hits the same vibes as the movie: “While you were sleeping”

The rest of the comments are jokes. But this is really great news.

Taylor Swift is one of the most influential people on this planet. And she sings Country music—which often has fans that skew conservative.

When “The Dixie Chicks” spoke out against George W. Bush 20 years ago, it tanked their singing career.

Even Dolly Parton takes what happened to the Dixie Chicks as a sign that she has to be politically neutral.

Taylor Swift taking a stance is a huge win.

Reading the quote, It doesn’t seem like that huge of a win.

Trump lies so often that him accidentally telling the truth seems like random chance.

The best example of good manliness in media I can think of is Bandit from Bluey.

The options are pretty slim if a cartoon dog from a children’s show is humanity’s best example of being a good man.

Is it too late to avoid perpetuating the Reddit culture of adding “Porn” to titles of Fediverse communities?

As you can see in your title and description for this post, you have to stop and reiterate every time that your community is safe for work. It’s just bad branding.

Why not:

sublimeguitars

stunningguitars

pureguitars

guitar-awe

Woah, imagine niche communities of incredible photography that all use -awe, as a suffix. And then there’s an accompanying sister community with -aww as a suffix.

Could have everything cute that features a guitar and a puppy or whatever in guitaraww. And stunning guitar gear and photography in guitarawe.

I do like this idea! Cheap too!

Some annoying neighbor kids keep ringing our doorbell and running away. I’m hoping getting one of these will stop all the ding dong ditching :/

I hate needing to buy one though. It doesn’t feel good

Genuinely a strong argument to allow work from home.

Umm… weird question. I guess I still don’t “get” the fediverse. How do I click on the link to view and join your community?

It isn’t marked up by a link in my Memmy app and I’m not sure what to do with it.

Standard wedding photography is set up to make photos look “old”. And it’s so hideous and awful. Most filters used for wedding photography look atrocious.

Let major moments in time look like they were experienced at that time! I’m looking at you, black and white photograph from 2016. Artificially making something old, when at one time they were the present, gives so much incongruity to the experience.

Let something as important as a wedding day look like it’s a product of that time. Not from decades previously.

They’re trying to solve one of the hardest problems in Computer Science: Naming things.

What do you call the framework, or design system—that thing that’s not quite a glossary of the terms—we’re going to use to describe the meta conversations around design?

“Design language” encompasses the colors, spacing, tokens, typography ramps, general rules, and all the other fiddly bits to unify on so that the more interesting parts of design and user experience can happen.

Naming things is hard :/

That’s a good question. I don’t know.

Just speculating, the upvote/downvote does help a user know what is expected behavior and some understanding to build from.

It also provides a rich incentive to post because “number go up” feels good.

I’d love to know YouTube’s data on hiding the dislike button. It wasn’t great for viewers, but it may have had an effect on creator satisfaction. But I don’t know for sure.

I can strike up a conversation with most strangers in real life pretty easily.

But online? There’s almost zero context. Even something as simple as the weather makes a load of difference for the small talk that can develop into richer conversations later.

Online social anxiety, especially forums like this one where you get a grade (the upvote/downvote), is very understandable.

Genuinely, life has only gotten better each year. All that time I wasn’t in my 30’s was pure horror. 40’s are looking even better too.

I tried all kinds of things to get Stardew Valley on my Mac to work with an XBox controller, and just gave up eventually.

The XBox controller works fine for everything else, just Stardew Valley doesn’t work with it :/

Gonna follow this thread in case you find someone with a solution

Yeah! It’s what makes being an adult great! I can choose to spend time with my friends.

Do you go to the movie theater by yourself?

The comment does not miss the point. You’re thinking from the perspective of a consumer, not a business.

Without Epic, World of Goo 2 would not exist.

If I was World of Goo’s developers, I would much rather have a job than not.

I find it so frustrating you’re being downvoted for a sane opinion.

I want Lemmy to succeed, but the userbase can be so mean :(

It’s just a tv show. I went to watch parties for Legend of Korra, anime, movies, and board game nights.

I’m not sure there’s much more to get
