Also non-cartel coyotes rest during the day. I lived in Nevada where coyotes are a given, but never in my life saw one during the day.

My brother had an orange manx cat when I was a kid. I can’t remember if it was a boy or a girl, just that it was the cutest thing.

Basically it’s a breed of cat with a very tiny tail.

Your little bobtail may be a manx.

Not yet. Keep waiting. In the quiet.

I have dearrow and I like it. I also installed Unhook, which “hides YouTube related videos, comments, shorts tab, suggestions wall, homepage recommendations, trending, and other distractions”.

Remember kids, don’t let the news tell you how to feel. Watch out for words in the title like “outrage” and “furious”. Anger increases engagement and they know it.

Our hero :)

Start posting. Really. I’ve been posting to keep communities I like going and others have started posting too. It’s slow growth, but the more content a community has, the more people will sub to it and eventually post to. Anyway, that’s my opinion.

Agreed. There is a snobbery to Apple.

They (my inlaws) are all on apple and they get these $2k+ Macs and they do less on them than I do on my non-apple laptop that I got refurbished for a few hundred, but I get a definite sense from them that non-apple products are beneath them.

One of the older family members sends emails and occasionally looks something up online. She often has to hunt down her Mac because she hasn’t used it in a couple of weeks. When she needed to replace it, I suggested something like mine and she got quiet and changed the subject. The next week she was telling me about her new Mac. It cost a fortune, but she didn’t tell me that, to her credit.

They all have iPhones too as if anything less would mean they were in a slightly lower class. I love them or I’d tell them to pound sand.

The person who downvoted you hasn’t experienced this snobbery. It exists though.

I had an older relative who thought that because my bubble was in green that she was being charged to see it.

That is…better. Hmm. We may have a winner, but I’m wondering how I might find a community that was never on Reddit.

Anyway, thank you so much. It’s not perfect, but it is substantially better.

Thanks for the suggestion, really. I’m happy for anyone trying to help.

Yes, I can look up a specific community if I know what it is and I can browse for communities also, but the current browsing method wrecks my brain because I’m neurodivergent.

I guess a good analogy would be suggesting to a low-vision person that they should face the screen. I can see it already, but it’s blurry and I’m asking for help to zoom in.

As long as you’re here, do you have a suggestion for a community? I’m definitely looking for interesting, niche spaces.

Like two different car horns.

One for, “Hey, I’m over here. Don’t hit me.” And one for, “HEY, I’M OVER HERE! DON’T HIT ME!”

What do you suggest for browsing? I think there are 20k+ communities. I know there’s something brilliant out there that I wouldn’t think to look for by itself.

If you don’t have a browsing suggestion, I’ll take a community suggestion. Maybe something niche?

Thanks. Good idea.

I did. It was buried in the post. Thanks anyway for trying. Anything helps.

You too, random citizen!

My philosophy on downvotes:

If I don’t agree with someone here, I upvote anyway. Not because I’m a Pollyanna, but because I’m happy they’re here and supporting Lemmy by posting and commenting. I really want Lemmy to stay up and stable for a long time and provide what Reddit used to provide for the wider community. Reddit still does, but hopefully we can too. I’m talking about political and health issues.

If it’s a mean comment, I do nothing and move on.

If something is just messed up, that’s a message for the mods. I’ve messaged once so far. Someone posted information about a person (image and real-life contact info) and said they were performing cosmetic surgery on puppies. The image was of the person flipping the bird, so it was clearly made as a hit piece. Mods got rid of it within a day.
