Cute! Looks like that lion is ready to give somebody a fist bump.

Urban exploring (for lack of a better term) with no purpose other than to discover. I live in a city and I’m constantly just wandering around going down streets I’ve never been down or into alleys I’ve never been in or checking out stores I’ve never been to. This is my approach when I travel to other cities and other countries too, I often don’t have a plan for my trip/vacation, I just arrive there and then start to wander and see what I find.

Where are my fellow Giants fans? We need a place too! I’m a total newbie to all this I have no idea how to create one myself :(

Yeah I haven’t seen the movie, so I’m looking forward to experiencing the story as brand new.

I read The Road and it just didn’t click with me, I finished it feeling like it was just “ok.” I think part of the problem was how much it had been hyped up by other readers and how famous it was and I went into it expecting to be changed when I came out, though I wasn’t. I’ll give McCarthy another try though, I have both No County for Old Men and Blood Meridian sitting on my bookshelf and I’ll get to them eventually.

String cheese, piece of fruit, some nuts, beef jerky, all are convenient because they don’t need refrigeration or preparation to eat them.

I hope that button gets implemented, that would be perfect!

Give us “normies” a little credit. I’m not technical minded AT ALL and I’m still willing to stick around and figure out how this shit works. Do I understand it? Hardly. Does the app I’m using (Jerboa) work? Barely. (Although today’s new release has improved it greatly, thanks guys!). But I’m still floundering around here and it’s a bit frustrating. I’m still going to give it a go though. I’m confident that improvements will come that make it easier here for everyone like me that uses the internet a lot but doesn’t really understand the internet that much.

But maybe I’m just willing to stick it out because I was only looking for an excuse to leave Reddit and the means to do so. I admit I don’t really care about the recent debacle, I just miss the old Reddit of 10-15 years ago and I don’t like what it’s become (a place full of memes, TikTok videos, dumb jokes, and hardly any real conversation anymore). It took this most recent fiasco for people to start talking about alternatives and that’s when I finally learned about the fediverse and made the move. It has been a lot easier to leave when I knew where I could go.

Fellow plant enthusiast here, thanks for the link to your instance!

I would love to see GolfGTI spring up over here.

Woohoo, another SD local! I’ll definitely join in the Padres community, just as soon as I figure out how to find it… (I’m still learning and still a bit confused)

Neat link, thanks!

This is my first experience with fediverse, I had never even heard of it before. So far it’s going okay, there are some things I wish were different or easier, but maybe that’s just because it’s new and feels clunky because I haven’t figured it all out yet.

In general though I am enjoying Lemmy so far, it feels like being on internet message boards back in the old days (20-25 years ago)!

In a way I’m a little sad but I’m also hopeful. I started on Reddit 13 years ago and it was a very different place than it is now. I liked it better then, and I think I’m sad and will miss it for what it was, not what it is. I’m hopeful for a fresh start here on Lemmy where it feels like I’m getting back to the actual conversation with other users, which is what I miss about the current Reddit. There’s very little conversation there anymore, so much of it is just pictures and jokes and bots.

This is my first visit so I’m still trying to figure things out. I’m on the mobile website right now because I haven’t been able to figure out how to log in on the Jerboa app. Can anyone tell me what “instance” means on Jerboa when you’re logging in? I tried a couple different ones from the dropdown menu but they all said " incorrect login."
