I'm trying very, VERY hard to pound the correct knowledge into my brain to be able to switch my freelance business services away from Google to something like Proton Unlimited.

Leaving the Google ecosystem will literally make me lose work, but man, this shit has gotta stop

... I literally used this for the first time today. Sorry everyone!

Way ahead of you, AI, I'm broke

Just followed! I've mostly switched over to this from Boost and Sync in the last couple days; you're doing really great work!

I have a small, totally unsolicited idea/piece of feedback (please feel free to utterly disregard it):

The logo and the name are both really cute, but they don't immediately make me think of Lemmy. I've had a few moments in the last two days where I've blanked on the name of the app while looking for it in my app drawer, which might just be my memory fritzing out. But here's my thought: the UI design in-app is really lovely in a kind of wintry way, and kind of makes me think of an arctic tundra, which is where Lemmings are typically found.

Tundra would be an absolutely killer name for this app, as it would evoke a place for Lemmings, and it would fit the kind of lunar/cold theme you've already got going.

I realize this suggestion could easily feel very presumptuous, or even unwelcome, so please forgive me if that's the case. Just a thought! Regardless, this has quickly become my preferred app, so I'll definitely keep using and supporting 🖖

That worked like a charm, thanks!

Two good ideas in one thread? Fuckin nuts!

 

I have an MSI MAG x870e Tomahawk WiFi mobo, and the temperature LED is just, like, SO bright.

I don't see an obvious way of changing its brightness or turning it off in the BIOS, so I'm thinking of cutting a 1"x0.5" rectangle of ND-8 photo gel and electrical taping it to the light.

Anyone know of a better way?

I didn't know he and Robert had fallen out; do you know what happened?

My brother animated this moment from Morrowind as part of the Chasm's Call 3D challenge. I did the sound edit/mix/design.

This 5-second clip took over a month to make, but it was worth it.

We've been slowly putting together ideas for a Morrowind film for years. Maybe we'll get lucky.

 

This is the text of the "Thank You" email that I, and I'm assuming every other supporter, received:

"Two months ago I stood by a dead van in the middle of the night on a windy French highway after leaving behind the life I had lived in the United Kingdom for the past six years. Freezing, sleep deprived and dead-broke, a terrifying realization dawned on me as I looked at my partner and our three cats waiting in the van: I put us all in this horrible situation and I really don't know what to do next. Fiasko after fiasko that led to this moment crossed my mind and filled me with the kind of cold fear I thought only accessible to children. The fear of being helpless and small. This was the absolute low point of my life since I can remember. I came very close to regretting standing up to the mighty and the corrupt, since it was now my most beloved who were paying the price.

I will never forget that moment cause without it I would've never experienced the love and the support you wonderful people have shown me. We don't ask for help in the Wild Wild North. It's easier to just curl up and die than to admit that I am not enough. It's not strength, it's fear that isolates us from love.

This morning I woke up to a notification that the fundraiser had reached its goal. It feels surreal. Unbelievable. In less than two months?! Get outta here, it can't be...

Thank all of you generous, compassionate people who have not only saved me and my family from financial ruin but also given us the means to continue the fight I came close to abandoning on the side of that highway in France. I cannot even begin to tell you how moved I am seeing how people who themselves have almost nothing still find it in their hearts to help someone they've never even met. From the bottom of my heart, thank you all for your donations, both small and large! Thank you for the love and the support, your kind words and the time you have given me! Thank you for restoring my faith and resolve! I'm not scared anymore, I know what I have to do."

Sorry, I wasn't clear - I meant the actual separate accounts in the account sidebar, where it says "other accounts"

This is pretty nice so far! It's scratching an itch left behind by the abandonment of Sync for Lemmy

I think the hitboxes on the account switcher need to be horizontally larger. Right now I have to carefully tap directly in the center of the tiny profile picture in order to switch

EDIT: Also, I'm hitting a bug where one account's subs aren't refreshed and reloaded when switching from one account to another. I need to force close the app and re-open to get it to refresh properly

I produced this video for The Gravel Institute a few years back before the organization folded.

It’s popped off again recently for some reason. Maybe because everything has gotten worse?

SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT

 

When making a post, please format your submission like so:

MainArtistName - TrackTitle [genre/genres] (year of release)

That formatting should read like this:

Haddaway - What is Love? [dance/electronic] (1993)

This makes it easier for people to identify the track, and see if it's even in their realm of interest before listening.

Keep making things!
