Multitasking is the name of the game 😎 (i have untreated ADHD please send help)

Too bad Kbin didn't last, so your postcount isn't quite accurate.

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 32 points 2 months ago

RIP. A lot of the best material I've reposted/been reposting though.

I'm OOTL, what happened to Kbin?

[-] jqubed@lemmy.world 37 points 2 months ago

Kbin was a project from a solo developer who also ran the main instance but had his real life (health issues, IIRC) demand all his time in the past few months. He had to abandon the project and the instance. Since it was open source it got forked and is continuing under the new Mbin project.

[-] tpihkal@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

This is one of the crazy parts of the Fediverse that I don't understand yet.

I am aware of Kbin and was under the impression that it was very popular. I haven't been there but how would I know when an instance disappears or where would I be able to find out where it's been picked up later on?

[-] Rolando@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

The email analogy kinda works here.

  • Imagine an email server dies forever. All of the email that it sent is still out there. If you are on another server, any emaills to/from people on that server are stil in your local email storage.
  • Likewise, a post that was made to kbin.social is still out there, if someone outside of that server was subscribed to that kbin.social community ("magazine") when the post was made.
  • To find out the "new" server... well in an ideal world the old server would at least have a notice to that effect. But this case involved a medical emergency, so that didn't happen.

Click here for an additional detail which may be amusing

  • See: https://lemmy.world/c/13thFloor@kbin.social This is the copy of the kbin.social community "13th floor" that was made on lemmy.world to show people on lemmy.world.
  • Now look at: https://lemm.ee/c/13thFloor@kbin.social This is the copy of the same community, but made for the lemm.ee instance. You'll note that it is missing a post that was made on July 6th. That's because the July 6th post was made by a user on lemmy.world. Because kbin.social was down by then, the post didn't "federate" from lemmy.world through kbin.social to lemm.ee.
  • See https://lemmy.world/c/synthwave@waveform.social for another example. waveform.social was an instance that died, but people were still posting to the lemmy.world copy, but only lemmy.world people were able to see those posts because they were not federating. So in comments we just decided to make any new posts to another community on a "living" instance, and we put a notice to that effect.

Pretty sure this is what my issue is. Hyper focus on work for an hour or two at a time; 10-15 mins of memes. Rinse repeat

Somehow I fell into the routine, motivated by wanting to see communities grow on lemmy, and I've just kept going.

You'd be surprised how quick I am at it now. The actual posting probably only takes 5-10min per day, and then whenever I have time to check my phone, I'll catch up on my inbox.

[-] sag@lemm.ee 24 points 2 months ago

I want to learn that power.

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago

I mostly post from my phone, using the Voyager app. You can star a handful of communities as favorites and keep them at the top of your list, so it doesn't take a lot of scrolling to find the right one.

Do that a few thousand times over the past year or so, and you get pretty fast at it!

[-] sag@lemm.ee 12 points 2 months ago

Thanks for sharing technique.

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

You're the George Washington of the fediverse.

Or its Karl Marx, considering it's the fediverse.

[-] Granite@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

But what goldmine do you use to find content?

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago

God, all over. You name it, and I've probably found content there. Random stuff from my Google recommendations, topic searches, reddit (rarely), Twitter/X, Tumblr, imgur, memes my wife sends me, YouTube (some people actually post memes there), etc.

Pretty much anytime I see something that makes me laugh or I think Lemmy would enjoy, I add it to my (now massive) vault of memes and images.

And if I'm feeling inspired (or bored), I'll sometimes make my own.

When I first joined lemmy I thought they were bots

[-] PumpkinEscobar@lemmy.world 42 points 2 months ago

I used to think they were bots. I still do, but I used to, too.

I too quit my job to post on Lemmy. In retrospect it was a poor life choice.

[-] GluWu@lemm.ee 24 points 2 months ago

I've almost quit Lemmy because I got a job. I hate my life more than ever.

Congratulations, I’m sorry for you!

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 45 points 2 months ago

It's easier when you didn't have a job when you joined and you still don't.

Originally due to illness, but at this point also by choice since a parent is required to be at home in order to help my daughter stay on track with her online (public) school work.

Still got waaaay too much time with nothing to do.

[-] franklin@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Thank you for your service.

Everyone knows that there is know known defence against The_Picard_Manoeuvre

[-] Toes@ani.social 21 points 2 months ago

Well then slap her into warp 10 and eject all the cargo to save weight.

[-] remotelove@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 months ago

Sorry to fuck a joke up by being a nerd, but I don't think weight (mass) matters much in a ship that could travel warp 10. The ship wouldn't have enough momentum to matter all that much.

All you did was give your cargo to someone else, I think. I mean, I'll take it if you think it would help.

because The_Picard_Maneuver can be in two places at one time.

Every time I go to the bathroom, I make a comment.

The trick is to get to a job that runs itself or doesn't care if your in or not.

[-] lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 2 months ago

For more information read Bullshit Jobs by David Graeber

[-] Furbag@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago

I feel like I'm good friends with The Picard Maneuver, Flying Squid, and Kolanaki, just because they're in all the same threads I am.

I don't even consciously interact with specific people on Lemmy, but sometimes I just happen to be paying attention to the usernames and I do the Leo pointing meme like "Hey, I recognize that guy!"

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

One of the things I love about the fediverse is it's not too busy for me to recognize usernames. Feels like an old phpBB board.

I love how this post has been up for six hours, nobody has tagged them, and they haven't found it on their own yet.
