Always happy to see more RSS-related tools emerge!
But isopropyl alcohol and enough elbow grease will get it off, if it’s just a coating on plastic.
Do beware, however, that you may want to dilute the alcohol to some degree, or simply use a lower concentration form of it. Too strong and it may eat at the underlying plastic just as much as the coating and ruin it.
are you getting a cut from kagi for writing that instead of search? gimme the deets on that deal if so! 😛
If the Otterbox case had a rubberized coating on it to try to improve grip, and with it being 6 years old, there’s a possibility it’s the culprit. You could try ditching the case for a little while, and/or getting a new case and swapping them out, clean the surfaces again and see if you feel the stickiness again after handling your phone and other stuff.
However, often with those rubberized coatings, the degradation (when severe enough to feel sticky) is more immediately apparent and you’d be more apt to avoid touching anything else afterward. Also in my experience I don’t recall it transferring to other surfaces much, but then again when I dealt with it I noticed ASAP and cleaned my hands right away.
Delayed response, but there’s a few that I’m aware of that may roughly fit this interest.
Same idea but different instance:

Lastly there’s !recommendations@lemmy.world, but this is more for seeking product recommendations rather than providing reviews of products. However currently there’s nothing in their rules prohibiting product review posts, so you could always DM the mod to see if they’re open to them.
Edited & crossed out first couple communities as I reviewed the original thread and saw they weren’t what you were after. I also see that you’ve made a community tailored to what you were looking for via !product_reviews@slrpnk.net, which is apt. Best of luck with it!
Ride those celestial surfboards through the 'verse!
This is buried toward the bottom of the release notes so I’m bringing it up here:
Added instance-level default sort type
Any admins out there considering changing their instance sort settings or asking people on their instance if they’d like this changed, given that we can individually set sorting anyway? Taking into account the inclination of people to never adjust default settings (I remain deeply curious about this tendency, as an aside), I think it might be worth at least bringing up to one’s instance community.
If they decide they want it to remain the same, all good, and even better, it raises some people’s awareness that they can change it themselves.
I think while some of this may be people being people (i.e. tendency to only discuss issues/problems vs accomplishments/solutions), I think there’s also a technical element to it as well in Lemmy’s case.
Up to the latest release of Lemmy (as of writing this is v0.19.4), admins couldn’t adjust the default sort setting, which was Active. Read the docs on the sort setting and Active does what it says, surfaces those posts with recent commenting activity (taking into account score as well).
So you get this unfortunate mix of: people gravitate to discussing negative stuff, people tend not to change default settings (since despite defaults being Active, we can change these if so inclined), and the default sort settings surface whatever is being most discussed/commented on, resulting in this sort of negativity feedback loop you’ve observed.
I noticed and posted about this a few months ago, have tried to upvote and comment on less negatively-focused posts occasionally, but I think this may be an interesting example of a small scale systemic issue as it takes more of us doing similar to address what’s being encountered. However, as more instances update to v0.19.4, I’ll be interested in seeing if admins decide to switch away from the Active sort setting to try to address this in their own way.
I don’t know what sort setting may be better for instances to run with instead, but I’m glad they now have the option. In the meantime I think it’s worth reminding people that they currently have the option to change their default sort settings to something different to try to see different kinds of posts. Personally I switch between New and Scaled to see a variety of posts beyond many of the regular doom and gloom posts.
Appreciate the adjustments and responsiveness! Gave it another try after this and the different formatting hit the spot! Still need to use more to see more finely tuned results, but dig the idea.
Also as others have already said plenty, would be cool to see this cleaned up for an open source release. If you’d like to see how some others are handling a sorta similar idea but with RSS feeds, you might look to Nunti for ideas on how to approach it.
Little feedback on the UI from taking a peek at this.
When I went into settings and adjusted post display style from card to anything else, it wasn’t clear to me that this wouldn’t apply to the new For You feed, which left me confused and less inclined to use it. I still gave it a try to make sure I wasn’t missing anything and to see how much the feed seemed to change with some light interaction, but I think you’d need to use it more than I did to see an effect.
Problem being: display settings not applying to the For You feed means I’m not going to use it much with the default card view.
Second part is that there was some comment display lag as I looked through posts, so if I looked at a post about cats with cat-related comments, those comments would linger and appear for a moment under a different post about possums. It’s just long enough to be noticeable, so thought it worth mentioning.
Huh. I had to take a quick glance at the timestamp of this article to make sure it wasn’t old, as this was the same issue that inspired a short-lived fork a few years ago.
I get where this article’s coming from, as I got where the people trying to fork it under a different name were too, however for better or worse I think what matters even more to people is that the software works well and has a good UX. If I remember right, I think Glimpse intended to focus on improving the UX but it didn’t last long enough to do much in that regard.
Better than my memory though, here’s an article that gives some insight into what went into the cessation of its development.
It’s a fun way of saying be yourself more or less, and also that we’re in major industries and always have been and will be; plus that we’ve always been around regardless of what others may insist
Didn’t honestly expect so much advice, but appreciate all of it! Feel free to share some interesting stories as well though!
This is all just for hiking. For backpacking I have way more.
Is backpacking marathon hiking? 🤔
Tales from the Crypt for spookies.
Mentioning this in contrast with funnies got me thinking…And hey, they did meet!
“The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window” was a pretty good (non anime) series too. – It’s a kind of hilarious take on scary movies and the tropes within them.
I see they’re competing with some Japanese shows for long, descriptive titles! Jokes aside, this sounds up my alley!
Hah, yeah, I tried to mention a variety so people wouldn’t think any show was too old or too niche. I watch whatever manages to snag my interest in some way.
Some shows I check out simply from the sudden uptick in memes, which is how I found my way to Columbo.
Original article: https://www.reuters.com/world/biden-whats-happening-gaza-is-not-genocide-2024-05-20/
It’s pretty clear to me Biden’s trying to thread the needle on this in a gruesome way. The argument seems to follow the form of: civilian deaths are collateral damage, this is unfortunate but this is war and they are not purposely being targeted and so this is not genocide.
However that almost willfully ignores the denial and blocking of aid to the same affected civilians, which is a deliberate action that despite the cover story being to prevent it reaching Hamas, falls entirely flat as regardless, it results in direct suffering and death of the civilians. I say almost because some small efforts have been made to push back against the denial of aid, but as is evident to anyone monitoring the situation, these efforts are all far too small to address the widespread suffering and death of the Gazan people.
This whole semantics game around genocide is simply disgusting. You know those in government know exactly what people mean when they’re calling it that, they want an end to the killing and an end to the deaths of civilians, whether from military strikes or denial of aid.
I am very good at being online so I am definitely not just getting around to mentioning that I cross-posted this to our peer community !casualconversation@lemm.ee where some others have responded with some of the active communities they’ve found: https://lemmy.world/post/14734186
If you’ve any you’d like to add, comments are open here as well!
There’s also some of their business strategy, e.g. Super Mario 3D All-Stars limited release, low production runs of Amiibo, and so forth.
