Also, https://startrek.website is a whole instance for Star Trek. Having multiple communities about the same thing is good for redundancy in case one goes down though.

Yours also allows me to open it on Mbin.

You would be 100% correct. It was for long-form high quality writeups of drama in a hobby, not looking at drama specifically on Reddit.

Really wish people used !hobbydrama@lemmy.world, from a quick look the three you put seem to be about specifically Fediverse drama

Mbin user here, link in the OP kicks me to lemm.ee while originallucifer’s link lets me find it on Mbin

Solved! Thank you so much!

Wish Lemmy Scheduler worked with Mbin, because I found a lot of good posts for !digitalgarden@lemmy.world that would best be spaced out to avoid spamming and to keep the community active for a decent period of time.

Curiosity made me check if !femalefashionadvice@lemmy.world existed and it does but it is not very active—I’d imagine any not-man looking for fashion communities on the Fediverse might not bite on male fashion advice lol. Now I am also wondering if just plain “fashion advice” exists, or anything for nonbinary people. Back when I was on Reddit I wasn’t aware of such a subreddit, I was only aware of malefashionadvice and femalefashionadvice.

I’ll be honest, I am not even qualified to advise on fashion. I am sure I am not colorblind but things like “oh, that color washes you out” or “that color flatters you” have never been something I am able to see. I feel I’m missing a lot of knowledge like this, but I get by because none of my clothes cause me trouble in daily life—no pain, unexpected restricted movement, or general discomfort; people compliment my outfits sometimes; and I’m happy with what I’m wearing.

Also, good luck with the community and I hope you find posters, as someone who is also one of the primary posters in some communities I’m in and hopes others would interact sometime.

I look for things to post on some of the communities I follow. Unfortunately I cannot commit to doing this regularly for all communities I follow.

Also, your icon need not be made by you, so even if your art skills are as mediocre as mine it is fine! Grab some Creative Commons thing, slap it on your community, and attribute it. That is what !newcommunities@lemmy.world did.

I do like fashion.

I always thought “streetwear” implied a certain kind of style that is not my cup of tea, and I am very uncomfortable posting a picture myself online, even if I censor my face out.

This is exactly why I chose Mbin: to help diversify Threadiverse software.

Always wonder how many people actually click these links when they are spammed somewhere they do not belong. Data on that would be cool.

I think I tried this out back in the day when searching for what I would use for PKMS! Don’t remember why I didn’t settle on it. I like FOSS stuff but the switching cost from Obsidian would be high—even if there was something to auto-move everything over I always like to manually move things so I can strike out unused things, improve existing notes, restructure my notes, etc. but maybe to support FOSS I should just find an auto-import if it exists and do it anyways.

Not sure if this would be considered off-topic for !obsidianmd@lemmy.world but you might want to crosspost there. I would welcome it. !FOSS@beehaw.org and !opensource@programming.dev would also like this.

Also, the name for this community (which I did not create and which I am not a mod of) is

Personal Knowledge Management Systems (PKMS)

Thanks for backing me up :)

I am not the one with an issue with the acronym. I am just a nobody trying to be polite to the person who made the comment, especially since I am really not in a position to fix their problem. It feels really weird to have something as call-out-y as “excuses but no solutions” said to me as if I’m personally responsible for the concept of Personal Knowledge Management. I like it and I post stuff about it on the Fediverse. I’m not some big authority about it.

And finally, my biggest reason not to is that I don’t personally believe the acronym needs to change, so I’m not going to begin to make an effort to get it done. I don’t have any investment in accomplishing that change. The commenter who pointed it out is welcome to take steps towards making it happen. I said what I said because I thought that would be a better and friendlier reply than a politer version of “lol idc about this”, while still being my honest thoughts on the matter.

I definitely did not make this acronym and I am not sure how I’d go about taking your advice besides making an entirely new community that I have to moderate, further splitting this community where people rarely post. Maybe making a separate post asking about better names for it? Unfortunately sometimes acronym name collisions happen, and I bet whatever people choose, inevitably some field will have an acronym with the same letters that has been around for longer.

I appreciate people like you.

Is that still good? I heard about some old music piracy sites now being flooded with viruses and the like. I don’t feel like having to be careful with what I download so I’ll probably resort to a YouTube to mp3 downloader since most of what I have is probably posted on YouTube, and I am not one of those people who can detect a difference in audio quality with different file types. I appreciate the help!

Younger person in my 20s. Most of my friends use Spotify. I grew up buying music on iTunes and will continue to do that. I also have little interest in discovering new music and a preference for straight-up owning instead of streaming something I do not own. (Yes, I am aware I should probably go reread the TOS to see if I actually own or if Apple can remotely take my “ownership” away and back up the files like mad.) But I know my approach is uncommon amongst my social group.

I do not have CDs and will not buy one. I know of their use for backing things up. I keep external hard drives but otherwise do not really like physical media and want to keep the count of physical things I have down. Another thing to collect dust, to have to try to keep nice because I like things to look nice, and to be heartbroken about when I inevitably spill something on it/scratch it/otherwise break or damage it, whether in a “it will lose functionality” way or just a superficial way. I’ll avoid the pain and just go digital.

I am also just not much of a merch person. I might donate money to support musicians but please don’t give me a T-shirt I’ll never want to wear (they are not my style, I might buy clothing if it actually fits my style but merch clothing almost always doesn’t) or a poster I’ll never hang up. If I like your music I might buy sheet music to play it myself. Better be accurate though, not a simplification, or I’ll turn up my nose and transcribe it myself. Can’t guarantee I’ll have perfect results, but I will be closer to the original than the simplified piano/vocal/maybe guitar scores that are often put out.

I also don’t know what skibidi toilet is, besides a meme that really belongs to people a decade younger than me. I don’t care to find out but I am happy to let them have their fun.

The reason I want it to grow is because I want to talk to other people about my interests without having to use Reddit. Not just me being the only poster about it.

I did say that I wondered if I’d accept bots if I was guaranteed the above outcome, with other humans, not with it being overrun with bots. I also don’t want to talk to LLMs. The reality is we do not know for sure if botting the place up will help it grow, and botting it makes it unpleasant for users now, so I am against it.
