At least for me this is what I get when trying to install it. I have to request free access manually. I don’t like that business model.

Wow! I didn’t know such an extension exists! Thank you! Searching for “DeArrowing” instead of “DeArrow” threw my results off.

Edit: On second thought, it’s a paid extension… meh

Please help me as a non-native english speaker out: What is DeArrowing? Or what do you mean by it? Google turned up nothing helpful.

I really hope that major parts of the anime community switch to lemmy. Of course so that I can enjoy the view, but also because I feel the missing Karma feature discourages bot content and the fediverse nature makes it hard for bad players to actually achieve anything. Commercialisation is also hard, as anyone can just switch instance if they like.

Anyway, we need more Waifus here.

That weird need for content gets to me as well. I went looking for meme sites and… well, what I found cannot be described as the bottom of the barrel, but more like the rotten carcasses of barrels in an old disused moldy cellar. My god that was horrifying. Even 4chan feels better in comparison in that regard.

It sound weird, but give reading a try. I went for Mangas using the Tachiyomi-App. Whenever I feel the need, I just read a chapter or two and that is all I need. Most will want to read books or articles, whatever helps. I also discovered news.google.com to be a great alternative for getting news, once you put all the bad sources on “do not show” one by one. Local news are often more interesting than you might think.

Go ahead, look for such things. Reddit was a giant tent you let into your life and now that the tent is garbage and gone you have a dead garden to replant with things because if you don’t plant what you like, wild groth happens and you won’t like most of it and then you’ll be unhappy all the time.

I give you that. However, I feel like the amount of times this happens here feels far more natural compared to reddit before the APIcalypse. Like, depending on the community, visiting a bar can be either peaceful, fun and full of interesting conversations or end I a bar fight at worst.

Reddit felt more like a completely overcrowded mass bar full of assholes in comparison. You had to actively look for the nice circles usually and hope they don’t implode quickly.

Me too is not that interested in most communities here. All you have to change is the default setting in your profile to “subscribed” instead of “local”. That’s the same mechanism as reddit had.

But yes, the amount of discussion here is limited. But not in a bad way. More like, concentrated rather than spread out. If you want to give it a try, go here:

Just look up the most active community for your specific interest and hope for the best. Worked for my few interests.
