Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Goodbye, Reddit, for good. My requested data is ready for download.

Good morning guys, I don't have Facebook anymore so just wanna ask if Threads and Egg Party(which PaoLUL played) is popular right now?

[–] rman0159@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Threads is becoming popular among users because of Twitter's reading limits implemented by Musk. However, there are other users switching to alternatives like Blue Sky and Mastodon.

[–] decadentrebel@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I decided to deactivate my Threads account. Yes, I know it's still there and I can't delete it. But at least it's away from public view.

Nakakairita how the influencers/celebrities inorganically generate engagement by posting dumb questions... which then gets recommended to me. Balik Mastodon na lang ako where it's peace and quiet.

On the fence with deactivating threads, as (thankfully) influencers haven't spilled over their junk content threads onto mine.

But with the fediverse coming extremely close to threads, i might deactivate soon without even so much of a "hello who's there" post on threads lmao

Meta’s β€˜friendly’ Threads collides with unfriendly internet

β€œIf an account or server, or if we find many accounts from a particular server, is found violating our rules then they would be blocked from accessing Threads, meaning that server’s content would no longer appear on Threads and vice versa,” she said.

β€œWith federation, the metadata that big platforms use to tie accounts to a single actor or detect abusive behavior at scale aren’t available,” said Stamos. β€œThis is going to make stopping spammers, troll farms, and economically driven abusers much harder.”

I like how Meta (and an ex-Meta) is framing interoperability with the fediverse that they are the ones that's potentially going to be the problem, lol.

Surprised to see some activity on our Raddle sister community, albeit from non-PH posters that were amused by the MMDA's choice for an acronym. πŸ˜†

[–] megane_kun@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

At least it's not about MILF, again. πŸ˜‚

[–] decadentrebel@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Funny thing is, the next article I posted was about the MILF, completely unaware that it followed the MMDA one.

So Angat Dam is reaching critical levels with El NiΓ±o just around the corner.

Time to do the John Lloyd-Sarah Geronimo rain dance and let all the offkey singers belt out their greatest hits.

[–] megane_kun@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I sometimes wonder if desalination is a viable solution to our water problems.

But then again, it might be more cost-effective to just build more dams to store water during the rainy season.

[–] ExploringLiterature@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm not that educated on the subject, but last I've read (sparse and a long time ago), is that these plants cost a fuck-ton of money. We'll see how it goes. Now that you mention it, might as well watch a docu on this.

Crossposted from the orangered place:

It seems many of my workmates have resigned for greener pastures. Parang gusto ko nang mag-resign sa current ko dahil mababa yung binigay na salary increase recently. I've been looking for other jobs sa ibang companies, pero not sure kung saan ang better. Baka i-lowball nila ako sa offer hehehe

[–] SuperHumanNot@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

Hi, from lemmy.ml, a socialist planet, they say. lol

[–] sparkle@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Normal ba na agawan ng isang 13 yr old na agawan at itago ang mga laruan ng 2 yr old? Pag may bagong toy kasi ung kapatid nya, sinisira, tinatago o naagaw nung kapatid nyang 13 yr old.

[–] harry_nola@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Ah, oh. You need to give the talk. If you can talk to your thirteen year old in a way na hinde accusatory or pagalit.

Is is possible that she/he/they need attention, and maybe talk it out?

Why do websites insist on using this font (Roboto, I think)? It's very hard to read.

It's also the font on our ModMail, which explains why I often do not check our inbox.

[–] megane_kun@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've seen design guides recommending Roboto as a body text font for whatever reason. I'd admit it looks "good", but at the cost of legibility (same as Calibri). But if I want it to be "clean-looking" as well as legible? Good old trusty Arial is there. Though I would just usually stop thinking and just use Noto Sans, lol!

[–] starscar12@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I prefer using Inter for my projects since Roboto is getting dated in my opinion.

+1 for inter. Shet sorry I have had a weird fascination with fonts, and Gawt Damn you earn big bucks if you have good fonts in a font foundry.

I am not sure if I should be doing this, but hell....

For the handful of us who've moved (temporarily or otherwise) to lemm.ee, there's currently a consultation going on about defederation from Meta's Threads. Upvoting the post means you're in favor of defederation.


EDIT:

I was wrong in calling that thread a vote. Changed "there's currently a vote going on about defederation..." to "there's currently about a consultation going on about defederation". At any rate, it's not a vote.

Pro tip: Stay the hell away from lemmy instances that do not have the modlog feature.
