You can't block it for the search, but your instance Admins can. For example, sh.itjust.works defederated from hexbear.net, but I find many hexbear communities in Voyagers Explore page when sorting by top.
It is also measured in inches in Europe and it is weird. Electronics get sold globally and I guess nobody wants to discuss a "139.7 cm TV".
It's a magic number though and I cannot imagine the sizes. I just know that 55 is bigger than 49. It is the same with phones, where it is much less important as screen ratios "get improved" every year and the diagonal means basically not much.
Wow that was fast, but as the developer said himself, clickbaity YouTubers and news sites will have a co responsibility for that. The drop of 32bit us inevitable, and in my opinion it would be smarter to think about how to do this the good way better earlier than later. But probably these kind of discussions have to be moved from public to internal I guess.
We are on vacation right now and my SO actually wears only the bottom of the bikini and goes bra less to the beach, because she says it's unfair I can free my nipples and she can not. Well that's pretty fair I would say?
We are European though and probably a bit less prude than US Americans.
Most of the time one community comes out as the strongest contester and then that one is mainly used. But people can also use communities on others instances, for example if they don't agree with moderation. When I started on Lemmy 2 years ago I was also skeptical of this concept, but now I see it as a perk. Regarding the duplicated communities on lemmy.ml, just instance block ml and you are fine.
feddit.de is dead for more than a year now! The community moved to lemm.ee, but as that instance is dying soon as well, moist.catsweat.com is its new home!
I did this when I was around the same age as your son. I remember knocking very often for a certain period of time, then at one point I just grew out of it. I would not worry too much about it, if there is no other serious topic that could be a reason for the behavior.
It was asked before and it is not easily possible because of how Lemmy works. Your home instance only federates to communities another user from your instance has searched before and subscribed. If that didn't happen, the community is unknown to your instance and therefore can't be shown. You can of course get a list of communities when accessing an instance via Lemmy UI through itself, so by accessing https://lemmy/ world for example. To integrate that view into Voyager, I guess you would need to implement some kind of "guest system". AFAIK it is not implemented atm, but have a look on the repo, I bet there exists an issue addressing this already.
Switching to Linux looks like a monumental task at first, but once you establish a beginer friendly distro you'd like to use it's really straightforward.
When doing the switch to Mint a year ago after a lifetime of windows I was really underwhelmed. Like.. that's it? It was really unexciting and everything just worked out of the box
StreetComplete? I have 47 minutes running time with 5% battery use now, I think it's okay
