i’d like for this too. i know a lot of people in general have pretty eclectic music tastes, but i only really like a couple genres, and would rather just be able to only listen to new music from those genres if possible

i’ve been playing a khajiit in my current run through and have been really heavy on the rp, using khajiit speak mods and such. khajiit likes this, [character name] wants that, “this one”, the works. it’s gotten bad enough that i’ve caught myself almost replying to people in real life with khajiit speak rather than using “i” pronouns on multiple occasions 💀💀

the content in larger subs has gotten significantly worse. like i said, i only really browse a niche hobby sub, and the content there has remained just as good as ever.

i think that most people here (myself included) really like that lemmy is so small, though i can see why it could feel like a problem to fix. it doesn’t have the advantages of infinite content like other services do, but the smallness means anyone here really wants to be here and is interested in discussion. it’s tight knit! i feel like people who actively want a reddit alternative have searched and already heard about lemmy, and i wouldn’t exactly want the general user base to be here considering how bad they can be haha.

what kind of content is there? memes mostly?

like i said, niche interest. i still browse reddit, but it really is only 1-2 subs i spend time on now, really just the one. as soon as battlejackets become an interest with my fellow lemmiers (??), i’ll be out- but that’ll probably never happen lol.

honestly. i’m still stuck to reddit because of the content only, and if i found a suitable alternative for that niche i’d finally be free to leave. i hate reddit- i hate the app, the “features”, the admins, all of that, but i LOVE the content itself

excuse my ignorance again, but how would monitoring software use in real time be different than how they currently monitor it? what would it really entail? serving more accurate ads and collecting/selling that more invasive type or information?

i haven’t looked into privacy much prior to joining lemmy, so i’m not very knowledgeable, but i’m very interested in learning more about it.

excuse my ignorance, what is DRM?

maybe less, though i’ve also been spending less time on social media like that lately anyways. though i do like lemmy, reddit has a lot more content in general and subs for my more niche interests (mostly battlejackets), so i do find myself scrolling there a fair amount. it tends to be a more conscious decision though, which is good, and i tend to stick to only a few subs that i really like. less mindless scrolling, more hunting for inspiration and conversation.

wtf this is actually true though 💀💀💀

man, i remember when the original of this came out. i was pretty young and thought jinx was SO cool, loved everything about her. i like this cover a lot :) thanks for bringing back good memories!

wait what 😅 context?

get scared has been one of my favourite bands lately. i’ve been loving their mix of singing and screaming, the singers voice, and the use of instruments like guitars and drums. i definitely prefer rock over other genres, so the instruments are super important to me as both a backboard for vocals and a catchy break between verses, and i think they do a great job of both.

the lyrical matter can be pretty edgy (for lack of a better word) at times, but most music i listen to tends to be like that anyway, and i don’t personally mind.

for anyone interested in more, i recommend Don’t You Dare Forget the Sun, Voodoo, and Suffer.

seconded! this one was excellent

all of spirit phone is really good! love neil’s stuff :)

hahaha i always think of him too when i hear them!

wasn’t expecting to like these as much as i did! taking back sunday is a band i’ve been meaning to look into for a long time, but have never really gotten around to. and blackwater holylight, while a little bit low energy for me personally, has a really lovely laid back sound that i like too!

your ghengis khan suggestion reminds me of this ghengis kahn which is a pretty different genre, but pretty catchy nonetheless

i like the melody, and while i see what they’re doing with the mix of a higher female singer and lower, more gritty male singer, i don’t think that works for me personally. i also tend to be really picky about singers’ voices in what i listen to haha :)

thanks for sharing!

thanks so much! this looks super awesome :)

hi, do you think you could walk me through how to download something like this or point me in the direction of a guide or something that could? i’ve been using lemmy just on browser but would be interested in something like this, i’ve just never installed anything like it before and don’t quite know what to do :) thanks!
