Ah, I see. Yeah, I thought I was misreading it, thanks for the clarification.

I have felt a similar thing with friends drifting apart, although in my case I think it has more to do with age and being busy than corona.

> but I often wish for more connection with other people

~~The fact that that's not ok in your relationship sounds pretty bizarre to me. I am in a monogamous relationship, and I have both male and female friends. My gf also has both male and female friends. When she wants to go have some personal time with her friends, I'm supportive of that.~~

~~I'm likely reading too much into this, so I'll apologize in advance, but not being ok with your significant other spending quality time with people they care about seems jealous and insecure to me.~~

EDIT: My reading comprehension is apparently trash tier.

Right now, there is no import/export. It's a known useful feature, but the devs have no time to work on it (I've been following all the optimization work they've been doing on github, I don't know if they sleep). You'll have to start over atm, sorry.

Hi all, wandering around random small Lemmy servers seeing if I can be of use. To pull communities into your instance, you need to first have someone subscribe. Useful picture in this comment, but basically you go to "Communities" at the top, and start a search with the full URL of the community you want (https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy, for example) and change "Communities" to "All" in the search options.

Once you've clicked through to the community and subscribed, it'll be pulled in forever. If you want to dig around for communities to subscribe to, go to the community finder.

Good luck, and see you around Lemmy :)

Nope. You can subscribe/post/comment on any community on any instance. There is one small seam though: if you're the first person to subscribe from your instance, you need to put in the full URL of the community (https://lemmy.ml/c/gaming, for example) to pull it into your instance.

After that, everybody on the same instance as you will see it when searching for communities just like it was local.

EDIT: Oh, forgot to mention: make sure the search is set to "All", not "Communities" when you do this.

 

How are people liking the new update? I'm a huge fan of the exile system even if VotP was a disappointment

Having understood the fediverse on a theoretical level but not ever actually stepping into it, it's really amazing to see the interconnectedness of it in real time :)

I am definitely a hard-liner when it comes to meat. I do find it harder to be such a hard-liner with other animal products, even though I'm aware of the conditions in dairy factory farms. I do agree with you, I'm just saying it's difficult.

I guess by that definition I'd be an aspiring vegan :))

The issue isn't access to raw ingredients, when we have the time my gf and I do cook vegan food (we made a vegan butter "chicken" just a few days ago). The issue is when we go to a restaurant or order takeaway due to work obligations and being super busy, there are no vegan options and normally 1 vegetarian option laden with cheese.

I tried being vegan, but it's basically impossible in Eastern Europe. I settled for just being a vegetarian trying to reduce my cheese & milk consumption and made my peace with that.
