Ham radio! It's relaxing. My favorite activity is to take my portable gear to parks and operate Parks on the Air.

We have a similar one here in the US. People think if you go outside when it's too cold, you'll get sick.

But the forgiven PPP loans are A-OK, right? Fuck this shit.

Yes. It’s far less hostile here and I don’t fear getting downvoted to hell for asking a question.

It's near enough the big city that I can go do fun things when I want, but it's quiet here and not a lot of traffic.

Wasn't The Donald originally a subreddit making fun of trump? I saw that TD was created here but my assumption was they wanted to restore the original purpose. I haven't looked at it since then though.

Edit: Nope. It is in fact a pro trump community.

Look at that rating distribution lol

I think he mentioned that the app stopped working before the deadline, and then he deleted the token at that point. So Reddit disabled his app early because they’re assholes.

I'm so excited this bot is here now!

That's already happening here in AskLemmy. 90% of the posts are support questions, and there's a sticky and a sidebar rule specifically banning those.

Most activity, I've seen here: !amateurradio@lemmy.ko4abp.com but there's a lemmy bug that's not showing a bunch of posts. That should be resolved soon.

These are good cheaper radios (The price has gone up a bit)

I was on the fence about it until the Spez AMA. Then, I decided I'd be leaving on the 30th.

Then, I had a user call me "fucking stupid" for supporting a sub shutting down, and that was the final straw for me. I had seen how friendly people on Lemmy are and this showed me how toxic Reddit is by comparison. So I immediately nuked all my comments & posts and deleted my account. This was around two weeks ago and I've been much happier here.

Take my upvote /s

I think that's the one I saw originally.

I'm into

• Ham radio

• Powerlifting

• Books

My life is pretty chill at the moment. Got laid off last month and am still on the job hunt.

Plus, think of the constant noise pollution.

They are fine for starting out with, but you'll probably want to upgrade soon. There are better radios for around $75 if you can afford it.

They need to be called out, wherever they are.

I agree. It may help send a message that the community isn't tolerated, hopefully getting it removed.

Gentoo

For example, I tried to recreate the Powerlifting community here and it's completely dead lol. It's just me posting a couple times per week hoping someone else joins me. There are around 50 subscribers but they only upvote my posts.

Edit: looks like the curse filter Broke that link. Just google “mtg called Biebert a little” and you’ll find it.

I grew up going to On The Border and Olive Garden, and thought they were good.

I put on ska on easy days sometimes. Today I listened to Supernothing by Streetlight Manifesto like 3 times.

There's one on lemmy.world I believe, but it's not what you're expecting.

They’re pretty much baofengs with much better filtering, so you don’t get front end overloading which can be frustrating.

Chicken fried steak

Is it a YNAB replacement? It would be nice to drop that annual cost.

Spreading this around when I can. Here's how you can personally block threads.net:

Yes. I think it's because I'm a monthly supporter though. It seems to have a big psychological effect in that I want my money's worth, and I want Lemmy to succeed. So I comment and post quite a bit to help keep communities active.

Fucking beans

Using lemmy is well worth the $5 per month I give them.

Did I ever say OP is one? I said they sound like one due to their behavior.

I've been here 1 month and haven't logged into Reddit since then. I vastly prefer it here. People are friendlier.

• Stuff You Should Know

• Barbell Medicine

• Ham Radio Crash Course

• 2 White Lights

That's a classic!

You want the support community, not this one.

Fair enough.

This is precisely my experience. I am a recovering big L Libertarian (in the USA sense). Now I'd say I'm liberal, slowly moving more left.
