It used to appear in the “all” feed like every fourth post a while back. Dunno if it still does.

I blocked lemmynsfw so that I don’t see straight up porn in my feed but can still see posts labeled nsfw from other instances because a lot of posts that get labeled nsfw are just things like explicit text or the OP labeled it nsfw because it’s not exactly nsfw but also not completely regular either.

What is the difference between “active” and “hot” when sorting Lemmy? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Sorry for digging up an old post lol. For active, is that the score of the latest comment or the score of the post?

For people who like to go to thrift shops, flea markets, etc., what was the last interesting thing you found? in c/casualconversation@lemm.ee

I found some board games. I bought a Monopoly board game, and a Risk one for $2 each!

Always rubbing their hands together (lemmy.ca)
 

Alt text: Meme with a caption at the top saying “No one: Flies:”. Below, there is an image of Patrick from SpongeBob rubbing his hands together with a grin on his face and an eyebrow raised.

What’s the best way to discover RSS feeds? (lemmy.ca)
 

I’m new to RSS and I’m trying to get into it. I don’t really check out news all too often, so mostly the other parts of RSS. Thanks.

Why do people look at sunsets? (lemmy.ca)

I thought you could go blind looking at the sun.

Edit: My title was worded badly. I meant how people don’t go blind. I understand why people look at sunsets, just not how they do blind. That’s my fault.

Edit: Thanks for all the replies and clarification!

Here’s what I learned incase anyone else has had the same question as me, the reason we don’t go blind is that we’re usually looking at the colours of the sky during a sunset and only some few second glances at the sun.

Looking at the sun also doesn’t make us go blind during sunrise and sunset because the light rays have to go through more atmosphere, so by the time they reach your eyes, the rays are weaker. It’s fine to look at the sun for a few seconds when it’s more red than white or yellow.

Again, thanks for all the clarification.

Why should I switch? Just curious.

Is it just me or is it lemmy shit? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I see you’re on Lemmy.ml. It’s PROBABLY because of that. That instance is really big so it causes posts to not load and what not . Go to a smaller one. Like in the ~1k range or something and I’m SURE all of these problems will go away. It was the same for me when I first joined Lemmy and picked Lemmy.ml. The following day I switched to Lemmy.ca back when it had ~40 users.

What from reddit do you hope to never see on lemmy? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
