It had nothing to do with the last supper.

True. I guess I enjoy giving/getting advice. Parenting is hard and, as they say, “it takes a village”!

A lot of the communities I miss from Reddit exist here already, but they are mostly dead. Daddit; parenting; communities for my favorite sports teams; the community for my current city….

The news, general discussion, and memes are all here. But the really niche stuff that I used to enjoy discussing with strangers are all gone.

He’s…. Passionate. I have no ill will toward him, but I also don’t watch much of him.

I like olives.

For sure. Responding is the natural thing to do. But, for me at least, I end up reading every response and deciding if I’m safe to just remove the first reported comment, or every child comment, or a mix.

Maybe some mods just delete the parent comment and all children to keep it simple, but I try to weigh each response fairly.

You’re probably better off not interacting with the content that you’re reporting.

I’ll second this. Responding to the problematic content usually just leads to a lot more problematic content that the mods need to sort through.

I think !casualconversation@lemm.ee is high up on the list. Pretty good activity there.

Did you take that? Looks awesome.

I started college in 2007, and I only had a laptop.

The worst I’ve seen is some spam and some petty name calling.

Aw shucks

I was never a mod at Reddit. But I’m a mod here for a few communities. I try to be as “hands off” as possible, and step in only when needed. It’s been 7 or 8 months as a mod, and I have not yet banned anyone…

I believe it’s a Lemmy 0.19 thing.

Oh, who are you?

This may sound cliche, but practicing meditation and mindfulness. The key is to be able to acknowledge and accept that you’re having a thought about something, but then divert your mind to the present if it is not a “now” problem.

This is the answer for me too. I don’t really use the salt shaker at restaurants. But, more often than not, we cook our own food at the house and use salt as necessary.

Dad of two kids and two shedding dogs here. Following because I, too, could use some advice. Thanks for asking the question.

I’d love to spend a few months at a time living in many different states/countries. I think that’d be awesome.

Oranges and collared greens, I suppose. Could be worse.
