For us, we have to watch the unskippable ad during Star Trek Picard, then it jumps back 10 minutes in the episode so we need to fast forward to get back to our place. This has been going on for several episodes.

---In 2013, the median age of burners was 32, and in 2022, it was 37.

My take away was that it seems like it is the same people going every year: they are getting older and richer, because that is what happens over time.

I have noticed this too. I was very excited to have the “mark read on scroll” option added with the update yesterday.

However, as I am scrolling and marking posts read I have noticed that a lot of the posts that were marked read keep reappearing as unread. Not other instances, but the same posts.

Hard to capture this in the wild, but I will try to get images of this happening.

Self awareness

I hid read posts and found out that that includes my own posts. I kept wondering why my posts disappeared.

I get the impression that the preference for dark mode tends to be more common in Millennial/Gen-Z men.

As an older Gen-X, I cannot stand having dark mode on during the day or light mode at night. I use auto whenever it is available. I don’t know why!

My daughter and her female friends do not have dark mode during the day. My younger coworkers often have dark mode at work, but only the male ones.

I’m curious about those who use dark mode all the time: were you born after 1980 and male?

Isn’t that a snail?

Was pretty painful to recreate my account on Lemm.ee, but I think that I have it mostly recreated. I am wondering if there is some way to automatically download a full list of subscriptions so that I can either sync up a backup account or at least have a file that I can import with a new account in case Lemm.ee blows up.

Fortunately, I had manually exported the list to sync it up with my Kbin accounts about a week and half ago, so I did have some of them tracked. Exporting into Excel was not easy!

Another user here that had set up VLemmy as primary instance. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to back up subscriptions and how to do due diligence on an instance to make sure that it is more credible/stable?

I have relaunched on Lemm.ee, and want to make sure that I am prepared for this happening again!
