Like Lemmy or any social media really, you get out what you put in. If you just follow the generic feed without following anyone, yeah it’s going to suck.

You can make lists, so one for your friends, one for news, one for a hobby. Or you can filter hash tags to really narrow in on a topic. People also make “starter packs” of who to follow for any topic you can think of.

This format is also unbeatable for breaking events.

My tip is: Beacons, beacons everywhere </Buzz meme>

I guess that’s one perspective. Another one might be that their marriage wasn’t as great as they thought it was in the first place.

Kids are stressful, no argument there. But blaming kids because their marriage buckled under the added stress just feels like an easy excuse. I suspect there were deeper issues that those people weren’t particularly interested in exploring.

They bring happiness, and a lot of other things too.

Yep, just like how every single other answer in this thread isn’t universal.

Kind of surprised no one has mentioned it… But kids. Kids bring a lot of happiness.

Shh, don’t brag about it

Canada: we’re the best at being annoyingly modest while simultaneously feeling smugly superior.

I don’t do anything too sophisticated, just something like:

Scan this image of a recipe and format it as JSON that conforms to the schema defined at https://schema.org/Recipe.

Sometimes it puts placeholders in that aren’t valid JSON, so I don’t have it fully automated… But it’s good enough for my needs.

I’ve thought that the various Nextcloud cookbook apps should do this for sites that don’t have the recipe object… But I don’t feel motivated to implement this myself.

I take pictures of my recipe books and ask ChatGPT to scan and convert them to the schema.org recipe format so I can import them into my Nextcloud cookbook.

I’m debating getting this on mobile or steam deck, is it largely the same experience?

If you give me cash, I’m probably just going to be boring and invest it.

Some people rarely prioritize fun things. Gift cards force them to.

Because users value usability over privacy.

The major thing that make Mastodon unusable is lack of users. That and lack of algorithmic feeds.

That’s a good point. The original question was why would someone pick blenny Bluesky over mastodon? You just hit the nail on the head.

It’s because the vast majority of users value features and usability much higher than privacy.

But only if the refund window has passed.

Everyone pays for not using nuclear too, a thousand fold more so.

I just bought a drive from them last month (from Canada) and just received a $60 duty bill. The time before that I got nothing. YMMV

I think you touched on how to make pay it forward work: make it as low effort as possible.

In this case, while you had lots of work, the people “paying it forward” had almost none. Thus the chain was able to go for as long as you were willing.

Wanted to see if I could do anything exciting with the new Satisfactory dedicated server API. There’s no documentation of it anywhere online, but there’s a random markdown file documenting it in the installation directory. Got it working but turns out it can’t do much. Oh well
