Well…it can be an long conversation but the TL;DR is there were several space communities and it will help lemmy grow to consolidate. Mander was chosen because they are science focused and LW holds ~40% of all lemmy users. To avoid one community from dominating lemmy we need to spread the usage to multiple instances.

Seems like you’re on the west coast (USA). Me too.

I’m hoping I get to duck out for a bit and take it all in after bedtime and chores. I won’t be able to pull out a telescope tonight, but sometimes binoculars surprise me.

Where are you located? How harsh of winters do you get? How wet is your spring?

I’ve always been interested in doing this. Winters are fairly mild here in my part of the PNW, but have doubts that I wouldn’t just have a mud pit in the fall/spring.

I was waiting for this to be busted out reading down that comment chain. Surprised it took so long.

So you’re saying they are similar in some ways. Good. I totally agree. Yes, they are different in many ways, but I’m glad you abandoned the claim that they aren’t similar.

Start reporting them when you see them.

How many subscribers do you have?

Wild stuff!

Yay!

I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this as my desktop background this morning.

Do you think deepseek is “on top”?

None of the photos are loading for me…even when I visit slrpnk.net

I haven’t done that since I was 6. I made an eagle, then painted and fired it. I still have it. It looks nothing like an eagle.

I actually just repleace mine. I found that it was actually getting pretty slow at browsing the web. Websites have so much garbage code running on them these days. Funny that the new Samsung phones have the same amount of RAM and storage.

Also, the security updates thing was getting to me. I have way to much banking info exposed on my phone to keep using it out of security update window.

New property so planting blueberries, grapes, raspberries and a couple fruit trees.

It’s so good!
