I only wish it was easier for me to find people to follow, really wish more people I knew IRL joined PixelFed

Been wanting to make one of these so bad, anyone know of a goode guide that a beginner can follow along?

I’m in the same boat. But as time passes I figure if I keep telling myself it’s too late instead of just doing it, I’ll regret it so much later on life. Because what I’ll gain from it at this age, I will be so proud of when it’s all said and done

Never say never, maybe a scout is watching us to recruit us as we speak. Then we will finally know

Just one, I’m glad I’m able to interact with all instances from this account, I think if I felt I had to make so many accounts I’d get overwhelmed and quit lemmy

A true hero

It’s honestly heartbreaking considering how much work it must be to write a book and how scary it is especially with so many influencers and celebrities in the market now already making it harder for real authors to get noticed

AI was a mistake

Ive used AdBlock for about 15+ years, at first because YouTube was getting a little overboard with their ads. Now I’ve kinda became a privacy nut and still use stuff like UBlock Origin but more for stopping weird trackers and cookies that invade my privacy and sell my data

EDIT: I’ve since learned to allow just ads for certain cites to support others as long as it’s for content creators or small business. I also enjoy donating to FOSS creators when I can afford it, which is something we should all consider doing to help support FOSS that doesn’t really on our data to pay the bills.

I was a straight up lurker on reddit, I feel like this environment makes me wanna be more active, reminds me of the old days before websites were a cash grab and there was true communities

Meta is that annoying little sibling that wants to be a part of everything when nobody wants them around. Except instead of a sibling, it’s more of a disease.

Thank you!

I’ve reread so many pages and chapters because of this, sometimes even restarted books entirely
