Nice. My pocket knives are Opinel, love those too.

Holy shit. I should know. What did i do, haha. But it is knives, right?

Haha, yeah I guess me too.

I don’t know, maybe by crudely cutting some real old bread, haha.

But yeah, that’s why i said that probably any bread knife is a bifl item, just this knife is hands down the best bread knife i have ever used, so i thought i’d recommend it.

I remember being a bit turned off when they recommended it to me in the shop, because of it being a Victorinox, but they told me it’s the standard bread knife for all the restaurants etc, so i thought why not, it was also only around 20€ or something. I bought it for my parents too, they somehow lost their old bread knife (how can you lose a bread knife?), they also like it a lot.

The bread is from a bakery.

It is delicious, it’s a 100% wholegrain rye bread from a very good bakery.

needs more active users ☞ !stick@sh.itjust.works

Really like that one. Yeah there are more communities that i really like but they hardly have any activity:

!camping@sh.itjust.works
!pizza@lemmy.world
!desire_paths@sh.itjust.works
!raining@sh.itjust.works

Nature is often odd & that’s great:

!mycology@mander.xyz

Also !mushrooms@lemmy.world

!birding@slrpnk.net

I like !birding@lemmy.world way better, much healthier community.

Communities where there is an actual community interested in a topic and people are posting mostly OC.

I think !birding@lemmy.world is my favorite community. It is positive, mostly OC, somewhat active and about a topic i am also interested in.

That user still made this post right here, and also they made up the fact that Lemmy is gaining in popularity.

as they are more prone to censorship

More prone than who? ml?

Pretty sure i have seen you say this explicitly at some point, but i’ll just take these easy to find snippets from 6 days ago, where you talk about what you’re up to outside of hexbear, although tbf you were talking about slrpnk users here:

I’ve spoken with a few users, carefully pointing out how by being anti-Marxist but not also being anti-liberal, and further having no links to theory of any sort beyond aesthetic choices, opens them up to opportunism. They seemed to vaguely accept it, hope it can get through to them.

I am trying to convince individual users when the opportunity arises.

You’re doing great! Also with your “reasonable nice guy” facade!

The hexbear cowbee. But let me rephrase. Are you not engaging in world communities to act as a missionary among the non believers?

Are you not using this alt account to act as a missionary among the non believers?

Thank you, I guess I had a couple upvotes too but I was ratio’d pretty hard, for a small generally positive low traffic community I had like 20 down votes or something, people really did not like this. So I thought if it’s a real serious community about growing vegetables, it’s not for me, I don’t do that, I just do lighthearted wild flowers and bird stuff.

Awesome that you got these doves around and the owl! I have a kestrel cruising around my yard too. The pigeons make themselves all slim and starved looking when they hear it 😆 It’s tough out there for the birds, including the kestrel.

So that should be a “no” really :)

For me it’s a no, but looking at my subscribed communities, i don’t have all that many ml communities in there tbh.

The ones that i like best and that don’t have a better alternative elsewhere are !crows@lemmy.ml and !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml and i guess the ones about lemmy itself and jerboa.

The way they seem to be banning people is worrying to me, the ml users i generally don’t have a problem with, but i’m avoiding politics.

That is just the reality on lemmy for people interested in niche topics. If i see a community where different users posts something once a month and there are even replies, that is more appealing to me than scrolling through three pages of content posted by the same person.

If a billionaire buys LW tomorrow

lol that is a new one.

concerning behaviour from LW mods

Would you look at that, a mod of a big community for heated discussion said or did something that people took offence to. Surely must be the instance’s fault, would not happen anywhere else.

!movies@lemm.ee is more active than !movies@lemmy.world in monthly active users.

You are doing a good job there, also with advertising the community, but I’ll say again that the world community looks more healthy to me, it’s a variety of different users posting there, while the ee one consists half of emperors and your effort to try and force this, actually it is only three topics that have been created by non moderators on the first page.

That is a software problem, I thought you guys were all computer experts.

If world wasn’t so big, it would have probably not even been noticed, now it is hopefully getting fixed with the next update, if I understood that right.

Federation works waaay better than when the big reddit influx happened, that was kinda disappointing and I’m glad Lemmy will be prepared better for the next wave.
