Every morning I grab a coffee and either sit outside with the fluffy butts or I bring one inside and read Lemmy with them on my lap. Best start to the day.

Typing this from my phone as I'm out cruising on the bike :) it's gonna rain soon so planning to do some updates when I get home later today.

I'll upgrade to latest Lemmy, I think we are 2 versions behind.

I'll also relax the image dimensions and movie size restrictions for the image proxy which I've noticed have prevented some image posts from working.

I don't know exactly what time it'll be but sometime shortly after 1300 UK

Update 2025-09-14 10:01: Real-life got in the way of the update yesterday. Updates have now been applied and we are now on 0.9.13. Also updated frontends and added blorp at https://b.lazysoci.al/ (thanks @nord@lazysoci.al)

Update 2025-09-14 10:29: Removed additional restrictions on dimensions of video uploads for the image proxy, this has resolved at least one example of the "too wide" error received for some images. It is now using the defaults, will see if there are any other examples and adjust if needed.

Does anyone else use a flowerpot?

What temperature do you use? What glass would you recommend?

No I'm not affiliated. Weed is new to me and want to explore how best to use this.

but @LadyButterfly is killing it in my feed.

I just wanted to tell you how great you all are.

I moved to Lemmy shortly before the mass exodus from Reddit in 2023. I eventually created an instance of my own and to begin with, leaving Reddit felt like a mistake.

I could browse Lemmy's equivalent of /r/all top-last-24-hours in about 15 minutes, so my doom-scroll time plummeted. I was better for it. However, I still yearned for the meme laughs and thought provoking comment threads of Reddit. Lemmy had them, but they were much fewer.

Fast forward to today. My instance is hosting a popular up and coming community, of which I'm honoured, even if I'm not welcome. The top-24-hour of all posts is now more than enough to satisfy my needs. I laugh at memes, I get to share posts I found on Lemmy with friends and family, I'm exposed to more cultures than just American which is a real refreshing change.

It isn't mainstream, and I think its better for it. It has its own culture, and we are beginning to get all meta with Lemmy in-jokes which I think is both annoying and awesome at the same time (ie. Hussain memes).

Overall, I am just really happy for Lemmy and am glad to be sharing it with all of you. May the good times continue.

The shield is a great device, but I'm starting to notice some considerable lag at times.

Before I factory reset it, is there a good alternative?

I have an older Apple TV I'm going to try but I'd prefer to stay Android.

Features I'd want are

• Android TV
• Netflix and Jellyfin support
• Powerful / fast
• Similar codec support, however only for compatibility. I'm not needing HDR or Atmos etc. Some of my family are deaf so we watch with subtitles and have a simple speaker setup.

At least 28 people!

I love this guy with every fibre of my being. He is 14yr old and starting to show his age. He has had a great life but I get all teary knowing that I'll out live him.
