I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.

Note: I’m moderating a handful of communities in more of a caretaker role. If you want to take one on, send me a message and I’ll share more info :)
No problem!
It’s hard to tell what the community is about from just the name alone
You could try posting in [email protected] as well!
For sure! Sorry for the delay, I wanted to sit down at a computer to make the changes properly and check over all the links, and then kept procrastinating.
They should be updated now, thank you for making those!
St. John’s Wort
if you take literally any other medicine, please do not take it. It interferes with basically every other drug out there
Thanks for including that! The link below has some more information on common interactions.
The list below includes some recognized interactions. However, other drugs may also interact with St. John’s wort. Check with your doctor before using St. John’s wort in combination with any other drugs, especially prescription medications.

We’re the giants in their ‘Human and the grass-stalk’ story
Thanks! Added it to the cross-post in [email protected]
Wow this is a cool photo, do you have more details for it?
edit
Actually the reverse search got some more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helen_Konek
Konek is an elder,[7][1] and lives in Arviat, Nunavut.
Very cool, thank you for sharing!
Research and organized information on a topic, however obvious it might be, is an important step towards policy changes. We also see those changes from time to time, for example some recent EU decisions
This could be a Goosebumps cover if it had slightly different styling
That sounds good! I’ll tag @[email protected]
Thanks for letting us know! I’ve just made you a moderator there :)

Is this related to the new laws in Europe? I remember seeing something about Facebook introducing a paid tier
Taking a look at the current sidebar, it might be nice to reorganize the stats section completely
What I’m thinking is:
By default it will only show some stats, where users can select what stats they want displayed in the settings. This way I can hide the stuff I don’t care about, instead of having to look through the already busy list.
**Statistics:** [✏️edit]
- Monthly Active Users: 4,000
- Total Subscribers: 30,000
[ v see all v ]
Then expanding the box will give the full list of stats:
[ ^ collapse ^ ]
**Statistics:**
Active Users:
- By day: 800
- By week: 1,200
- By month: 4,000
- By year: 24,100
Subscribers:
- Total: 30,000
- Local: 12,000
Comments:
- Total: 81,000
- Today: 510
- This week: 1,315
[... etc]
It opens up the possibility of including more items in that list. We could also replace the expand
option with a link to a full statistics dashboard page.
Creating a bunch of accounts possibly to manipulate votes
Looking from the admin level, doesn’t happen that often. Vote manipulation is already something we keep an eye out for, and usually it’s done to highlight certain content (ex. pushing some political angle) rather than boosting one community over another.
you can stop seeing by adjusting your “Show Bot Accounts” setting
I like some bots, but I only subscribe to a bot-only community if the volume of posts is reasonable.
Alternatively, I think both metrics are helpful in different ways
- Quality over Quantity: MAU counts lurkers equally with active participants. PCM focuses on actual engagement.
- True Reflection of Activity: A community with 1000 MAU but only 10 posts/comments is less vibrant than one with 100 MAU and 500 posts/comments.
I’d say votes are also an important part of engagement. It helps differentiate between good and bad content. I’m more likely to join a community with a few good posts a day (or even a week) than a bot community with many posts a day. Going by how the subscribers counts change over time, I’d say this is a common experience.
- Spam Resistance: Creating multiple accounts to inflate MAU is easy. Generating meaningful posts and comments is harder.
While any abuse is bad, spam posts and comments are a bigger concern right now. AI generated spam / link spam is obnoxious and we deal with it often (as admins/mods). While someone could make lots of accounts to inflate MAU, it only really affects the community ranking against other communities and not day to day usage. Lemmy is already considering removing the trending section, and admins usually step in if a bunch of similar accounts are created at once.
- Easier to Track: No need for complex user tracking. Just count posts and comments.
I’m not sure I understand this point. Are the vote/comment/post calculations very resource intensive?
All that being said

I wonder what happens if a comment is deleted
Maybe Fossify Gallery?
I see this issue requesting Ultra HDR instead of regular HDR
https://github.com/FossifyOrg/Gallery/issues/166
So it might have regular HDR?
I loved the plant unit in elementary school. We had a planter with glass on the side, and for the first week or so everyone would rush to check how the seeds were doing. Then we got bored until the first seed sprouted.
This channel can be fun, it shows a timelapse of how different plants grow: https://www.youtube.com/@Boxlapse
Thanks :)
