I've created an account with your referral thanks.

I'm checking out the service, but I'll probably self host if I like it since I already have a mini-PC i host stuff on.

I'm not self hosting at the moment, but looking at my options.

I have a mini PC with a terabyte of storage I might leverage.

 

I've switched my email etc. to https://infomaniak.com/

I'm planning on move all my media out of google photos but I really like the ability to search by a persons face, or to search "Dog" and then it'll show me all my pictures with dogs in them.

I have 100k photos, so having search functionality like this is curtail.

That's the thing, people don't think before commenting.

You can use https://old.reddit.com/r/Buy_European instead, the mods there are chilled.

The two party system needs to be fixed before a new party has any chance of success

That was my post, I'm having a chat with the mods now, hoping they can reinstate the post. a warning would have been nice before removing the post and banning me, but let's see what comes of this.

I still see Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/BuyFromEU.

You can comment but I think it's just "Hidden" idk

I was spamming that sub quite a bit to help guide people to lemmy. But a warning would have been appropriate, not a ban and removal of my post.

Aaaand it's gone, and I've been banned from the sub.

got 80,000 views and 1300 upvotes before is disappeared though, so I see that as a win, I'm sure a few people signed up.

To be fair, I was spamming should have read the rules better, a warning would have been nice.

Sadly yes, but they've been helped to see the light.

Let's keep guiding new users.

 
 
 

I would love to sometimes filter out any and all political posts, I think having this enabled as default on some instances would also be preferred by some users.

I'm a software dev, if it doesn't require a lot of work I'm happy to make a Pull Request for this feature, but do people want this? Is there anyone I should maybe talk to before starting, or anything I should know?

Edit: I realise it won't filter out ALL political posts, but even if it only catches half of the stuff, it could make the difference between being flooded with Trump/Musk news and not.

Some new users might turn away before knowing the can set filters etc. (which also aren't perfect)

 

piefed.social is a very popular instance, and I feel it's really beginner friendly, why isn't it an option on Voyager?

I found a super simple way to refer people to Lemmy.

One simple message:

Try out the Reddit alternative called Lemmy https://phtn.app/

It also has a mobile app: https://vger.app/settings/install

This way a user can just click, start seeing content and what Lemmy is about, and if they want to comment etc. they will be asked to create an account with lemm.ee selected as a default.

This should fix most of the onboarding UX issues, and eliminate the decision fatigue of trying to figure out which instance is best.

My girlfriend and I are planning to move in together in ~3 months.

I own a small apartment in Amsterdam, my mortgage, heating, water and electricity is about 2000 Euro a month, and I earn 30% more than she does.

Some context: Amsterdam is damn expensive and in an housing crisis, since living here she's been paying about 1000/m to rent a room. Both of us earn quite well and money isn't tight

What is a fair way to split costs? I've heard everything from she should live here for free because I was paying for everything anyway to we should split everything 50/50, and I'm not sure what is fair.

I don't think 50/50 is fair, because the way I see it, I'm going to get back a fair amount of the money I pay to my mortgage when I sell the apartment.

So what is fair? My gut feeling is something like we split the heating, electricity, groceries etc. 50/50. And she pays say 500 Euro a month for living here (less than half what she's used to paying in rent)
