Community consolidation is antithetical to how the fediverse works. If you want to increase the number of users in your community then work on increasing the number and quality of posts, and mention the community in related spaces. Please don't attempt hostile takeovers of communities on other instances just because they have the same name.
Missing the most important spec for me: weight
There can't be much brain there to rot if it's still using Microsoft products.
Was Eminem preaching hate against schoolchildren?
No, Lynx is a text-only web browser that runs in the terminal.
special CSS styling so you can’t avoid seeing it
you can't set your client to plain-text only?
We need to talk about videos titled, "We need to talk about..."

Most people know at this point that when searching for a popular software package to download, you should be very careful to avoid clicking on any of the search ads that appear, as this has become an extremely common vector for distributing malware to unsuspecting users.
If you thought that you could identify these malicious ads by checking the URL below the ad to see if it directs to the legitimate site, think again! Malware advertisers have found a way to use Google's Ad platform to fake the URL shown with the ad to make it appear like a legitimate ad for the product when in fact, clicking the ad will redirect to an attacker controlled site serving malware.
Don't click on search ads or, even better, use an ad-blocker so that you never see them in the first place!

[SOLVED]: The issue was caused by having "Show read posts" unticked in Settings. This will hide your own posts from you!
I recently made a post^[1]^ to this community about a bug that I experienced and reported.
The post does not appear in the New feed for /c/lemmy_support nor does it appear in my user profile under Posts ^[2]^.
However the post does have 3 replies (from users on multiple different instances) which means that other users can see it across the fediverse, so it's not a federation issue. (Also, my account and the community are both hosted on the same instance - lemmy.ml).
I was not subscribed to /c/lemmy_support at the time I made that post, but I am subscribed now to see if that affects my visibility of this post.
Is this a bug, or am I misunderstanding how lemmy works?
Interestingly, if I view my profile while logged out, it does show the posts that I made, but when logged in it shows zero posts in my profile.

No thank you. Consolidation is antithetical to how the fediverse works. I would rather just have a new active mod(s) in this community.
