It’s always awesome to see the community I created mentioned in the wild!

I also created !dullsters@dullsters.net as an independent alternative.

I also mod. !dull_mens_club@lemmy.world There’s no difference between creating a community on a big instance and hosting a small one in that regard. The costs would be the exact same. I’m taking administration into my own hands and taking that load away from them, and decentralizing which benefits users. If Lemmy.World goes down or defederates from another big instance or makes up some weird rules, then my instance isn’t affected and users have continuity even if they have to make a new account elsewhere.

The way Lemmy works that media is stored on their instance, not mine. The only thing stored on mine are posts and whatever I upload. It costs $5 a month for a cloud server. I could host from home but I don’t feel like messing with it and it’s cheaper than setting up a server.

Without users the hosting cost is very low. I suppose it could go away if something happened to me I guess. The point is that it’s a community which is completely decentralized.

Feel free to visit. !dullsters@dullsters.net a completely independent and topic focused instance with no users. I created it so that the community would not disappear if an instance closed down or defederated from another big instance.

!dull_mens_club@lemmy.world and

!dullsters@dullsters.net

I just launched

!flipping@lemmy.world

Which is not active yet, but I’m trying to post a little bit to get the ball rolling.

!dull_mens_club@lemmy.world and. ! dullsters@dullsters.net are getting regular activity, but few new subscribers.

I started !flipping@lemmy.world which is a place to discuss the various ways of selling things online whether it’s for personal stuff or to make a profit. Off to a bit of a rocky start as some people take issue with making money from reselling.

Bitwarden does all that. If you pay the subscription you get a GB of storage and delegate emergency access to other people.

Problem being that someone else asked the question 10 years ago and the answer is now irrelevant due to version changes. People with high scores are just early adopters who answered all of the easy questions. Hostile users generally can’t understand the question. The issue with llms answering your question is that they are going to be stuck in the current time period. In the future their answers will also be irrelevant due to version changes.

A used ps4 is probably the best value in gaming right now. For ~$200 you can get the console and a bunch of games.

I wouldn’t care if I had to use multiple messanger apps. There used to be a pc program that let you login to msn, irc, and yahoo messanger all at once and manage your accounts in one place.

i have dissasembled batteries to recharge the 81650 cells inside then reassemble. If they drop below a certain threshhold then the protection circuit won’t charge them. I have a special charger/tester for lithium cells and a battery tab welder. It’s only worth it if the replacement is unavailable and it’s for something very rare.

Connect for lemmy it’s on android.

Also on the connect app. It has had so many great updates lately.

!dull_mens_club@lemmy.world got a flurry of posts after nearly two weeks of inactivity. !dullsters@dullsters.net has been getting regular posts and we’re at over 500 subscribers.

I’m considering a safety focused community called “safety” or likewise to promote safety where people can post about near misses and lessons learned and have a monthly or weekly safety topic.

!dull_mens_club@lemmy.world !dullsters@dullsters.net

There’s a bunch of places if you search. Facebook doesn’t give a crap about it.

You can buy accounts.

I have an axiety disorder, so I’m suing for discrimination.

What’s with all the downvotes? I swear there has to be vote manipulation going on with some of these threads.
