Used to play on PC but rarely have time to do so now. So now I play Zelda on Switch while commuting :D
Oh, I'm sorry. I guess I have to tell them they are not allowed here now 🥺
Never had any pets growing up because of my family but considered myself a dog person for some reason.
Then hubby's family got a small dog AND a cat. I kinda liked both for some time but then I found out that I'm allergic to pets. There was a very bad case of bronchitis when I would sometimes be unable to breathe at all. Started to keep my distance from both, especially the cat, because I had less of a reaction this way.
Then I had to take care of both because of family problems (some people dying, some living away for a long time). During this time the cat started to socialize with me more, demanding pets 50 times a day and I just couldn't say no :3 I started to really love this little girl and I even have less allergy now.
Today I visited my best friend in her new place for the first time. She has a GIANT FREAKING DOG. He's a good boi but not very polite, and as he put his paws on my shoulders and pushed me with all his 20+ kilos of weight and put his toothy face into mine the first thing that crossed my mind was "well, I didn't have to lie to myself that I'm not scared of big dogs, because I am :("
So, I guess I'm more of a cat person (easier to maintain, to get some personal space, blah blah blah) but I love our doggy anyway :D
Oh, thank you, today I learned something new :3
Oooh thanks, didn't realize it was possible
I've tried several apps for Reddit on android over the past few years and this is what I'm currently finding uncomfortable using Jerboa for Lemmy:
- the numbers on the top right corner of the posts are confusing. Like right now they are saying "24 13". Based on the upvote behavior I think 24 is rating. I'm guessing 13 shows how old is the post but it looks counterintuitive without a measurement unit. Is it 13 mins or 13 hours or 13 months or what?
- is there a way to collapse comment threads?
- on some of my previous apps for Reddit there was a way to hide read posts. I don't really want to scroll past everything I've already seen every time I open the app.
That said, I really like Lemmy and hope it'll get the fanbase it deserves.
I'm enjoying it! Smaller community feels cozy, I even started commenting (was a lurker on Reddit). Although there's always a room for improvement. I occasionally lose comments because of some bugs or server issues, sometimes opening things just leads to refreshing of the main page and you lose the post and so on
