At the bottom right of every page, you can click on the “Instances” button (or just go to https://lemmy.zip/instances) to see what instances your site is federated with/is defederated from. lemmy.ml is under linked, so lemmy.zip is federating with them.
What you may be running into is that on this smaller instance, you may need to discover the communities:
These previous ways [searching for instances] will only show communities that are already known to the instance. Especially if you joined a small or inactive Lemmy instance, there will be few communities to discover. You can find more communities by browsing different Lemmy instances, or using the Lemmy Community Browser. When you found a community that you want to follow, enter its URL (e.g. https://feddit.de/c/main) or the identifier (e.g. !main@feddit.de) into the search field of your own Lemmy instance. Lemmy will then fetch the community from its original instance, and allow you to interact with it. The same method also works to fetch users, posts or comments from other instances.

This whole website is great, thanks for sharing! Currently hooked on drawing a perfect circle
I believe it’s this issue for 0.0.36, where it will always use your account’s preferences: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/887
It looks like a temporary fix is already done, so it should be fixed when they make a new release (0.0.37). As a quick fix for 0.0.36, it looks like if you change your account’s preferences, quit the app and reopen, it’ll use those new settings (but that’s definitely a pain), you could also use the web version.
I am in shock, had to take a second to process that - Infinity Train blew me away and I’m beyond excited to see Owen Dennis leading another show! Never would have expected an Among Us show though - hope he has free reign to go interesting places with it!
Defunctland’s Disney’s Fastpass: A Complicated History is a fantastic dive into the logistics of managing a giant crowd over several years, from approaching it as an engineering problem all the way to exploiting the system for profit. It’s such a fascinating problem to me, and it’s presented in an engaging and fun way. The rest of the channel is fantastic too!
I’ll also recommend Fascinating Horror - these aren’t fictional horror stories, these are real disasters told in an incredibly detailed but highly respectful way. They don’t just explain the disaster and why/how it happened, but also the regulations that came afterwards to make sure these would never happen again. They’re all high quality, but if you want a starting point the Nutty Butty Caves will give you a good idea what the channel is about.
Manifest V3 will not prevent Brave from blocking ads. We built ad blocking into the browser itself so it will not be affected by Google changing its rules for extensions.
I’m really excited for what it means for the future! I’m not going to buy a first-gen product like this, but the fact that Google is making a foldable hopefully means that Android is going to become a better experience on devices like these, so when the technology does get cheaper the software will be ready for it. I’m totally onboard with having a larger display in a more pocketable form factor.
I’ve only been thinking about the implications of faking a celebrity’s voice - personalizing it like this makes me sick to my stomach. Had no idea it’s already that easy. I don’t think the voice would even have to be that realistic - if they’re faking a life threatening situation, my first thought isn’t going to be “Hey, their voice sounded a little off”. Absolutely horrifying.
I got a Supernote A5X to read papers - I’m very happy with it and wouldn’t want a tablet. I specifically wanted a dumb device dedicated to notes/reading that I wouldn’t connect to the internet, which really helps me focus. The eink display is easy to read and is a great break from screens, it feels natural to write on.
However it’s not perfect - eink has a small lag in turning pages, so if you intend on flipping through a ton of pages while coding that may be a pain. The searching experience also isn’t great, typing takes longer because of the lag. I use it as an advanced notebook rather than a smart device, and I love it from that lens.
