Just a guy on the internet, totally a human and not an alien, if that’s what you were wondering.
What kind of psycho gets a knuckle tat on the inside of their knuckles?
You know if you block something you aren’t interested in you don’t even have to scroll past it, right?
Alt-text descriptions should clearly convey both the content and the meaning of the image, and should aim to use as few words as needed. Describe what’s essential to understanding (and enjoying!) the intent of the posted photo — you don’t need to add in a sentence for every visual element, but should include as much as you need to create an accurate portrayal of the image. Cut out unnecessary words and combine separate sentences as much as possible. One to two sentences is usually more than enough room to describe what’s going on.
As mentioned before, these photos convey information to the people scrolling your page, even if you are just posting them to brighten up your feed. They have a purpose, and for that reason, alt text should focus more on the image’s meaning than its aesthetics. This means you’re not focused only on what the object in the photo looks like, but what it is and why it was posted.
I was hoping to see a format that people can easily follow and just fill in the blanks, but I suppose this is the gist of it: Describe the main purpose of the photo succinctly rather than each and every individual thing you can see.
Blasting music/videos on their shitty phone speaker in public. If you really don’t have headphones, at least turn it down or hold the speaker closer to your ear so you’re not just annoying everyone in a 10-meter radius.

In a past thread on this topic, I’ve seen a few indie artists say that they benefit because Spotify amplifies their audience. They make crap on the streams, but a larger audience base is worth the trade-off since they’ll be able to sell more concert tickets and merchandise.
Thank you. The moment I saw it, I knew it would be appreciated in this shitposting community.
Out of all the most prominent streaming services, Hulu has the most content I’d actually watch. Unfortunately, they still show ads in their cheaper paid subscription, which is a deal-breaker for me.
Of course. In fact, the most addictive kind is sparkling water
It’s great. I get all of the access to the Fediverse without really any of the connectivity issues I experienced on my lemmy.world account
Dry goods that don’t need to be prepared. Things like crackers and beef jerky are reliable choices.
I saw those too at first but I’ve started seeing some normal ads more recently. The Sponsored Content box still shows up once in a while tho
So you bought something without reading the label, then got mad about it, and it’s their fault for making a scent you don’t like? 🤣
Cucumber scent is the shit. I’d take that over Mountain Spring any day
Practically every day. I take public transportation so when I get home I’ll use a disinfectant wipe on it to kill any germs. It’s a habit that’s stuck with me since the pandemic and it’s just nice to have a clean phone.
Wait you built it? With like a kit or from scratch?
I’ve actually noticed that too. It’s odd that anyone would go to/sub to a community for cat pics and just downvote whole threads of comments regularly.
When I see it happen I like to throw a few upvotes to balance the scales again.
Hot is the best way to see new, good content consistently. Sorting by top or active will show about the same posts, in my experience.
I typically sort by top + all, then top + subscribed to see the most-engaged posts of the day first; afterwards if I still want to browse I sort by hot + subscribed or new + all.
I recommend you check out TheFreePizzaDude on Imgur. There is a limit to how often you can receive donations (like once every other month), but they will help with getting you a pizza or even some regular groceries if you ask.
