Thanks for posting, however this has been already shared here and is linked in the community sidebar already.

But since this community could use more activity and reminders are not too bad I still find it useful!

Uups sorry, I like it so much that It is the first thing that comes to mind when someone asks for some alternative in digital!

[โ€“] Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

No worries! And yeah, when someone posted this for the first time I was incredibly happy that we have such a website since I was also looking for digital alternatives!

But no worries, all acitivity is good in this community right now :)

I think it might be good for mods if they could pin this one or the other post that shows this website in community so that it's easier for to see that website. Idk not a mod so not sure if that's possible currently.

Yeah we did put it in the sidebar for that reason but I know that especially in lemmy apps access to sidebar is quite hidden.

Thanks for the suggestion, maybe we could make a permanent sticky post that gathers popular resources.

Without this post I would have never seen the list, nor browse to this community.

[โ€“] Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 4 points 3 months ago

Yeah that's a good reason to not mind reposts. Lemmy is still small and activity beats everything else right now.

Nice!

I'd love something like this for the non digital things in my life. I know my country doesn't import THAT much from the US but I'm sure I don't know what things are and aren't from there, apart from the obvious
