  • “sleep when the baby sleeps”

    Yeah because there’s absolutely nothing that needs to be done once I finally get my daughter down. No washing and sterilising, for prep for us or for her, general chores around the house which you can never do effectively one handed. And fuck me if I wanted to try and relax and have an actual evening after they’re down too.

    “Sleeping like a baby” had also never seemed like such a juxtaposition!





  • Agree. I find the slower pace or lack of an algorithm or whatever it is is leading to me opening lemmy, then kbin around once or twice per day (have 2 accounts and slightly different subs between them which is frustrating in itself).

    Then I find myself back on reddit for a bit more scrolling, particularly of the communities I haven’t found an alternative for or that are still more active on reddit.

    I suspect this will change come July when the Relay app that I use on mobile presumably ceases to function due to the API changes. And my routine will just be kbin/lemmy (hoping for a unified app soon on android). But I’m not sure that’s necessarily a bad thing and might reduce my overall screen time a bit.

    Still, I am sad the reddit golden age is effectively over at this point.



  • Thanks this does make sense obviously and you seem to know what your talking about so I’ll ask this:

    Am I right that searching for a kbin community/magazine on Lemmy, or vice versa, will only pull in new posts on that community as well?

    For example I just searched for the home assistant community on kbin and found nothing local, so it pulled up the lemmy home assistant community, “great!” I thought, but when I go to look at the posts it shows a number of posts,but not the actual posts, instead directing me to go to the original source to view old posts. In that instance then I am taken directly to lemmy from kbin and can’t post using my kbin account. This seems like a bit of a limitation of the federated community if you want to take part in historical/existing threads on another server.
