I understand being skeptical, but there’s no reason it should be hard to believe…

You can have a healthy dose of both being informed and practicing self care. Being empathetic is also a good thing, actually.

I really thought this was fake. Wow!

I like the term “zero-prep campaign”. I think I want to use that now. I’ve also had the most fun with those, although planning ahead can be very rewarding in its own right.

This is awesome. Thank you for sharing! I love the tripod fish.

I honestly can’t choose. I love too many of them. Some of my favorites are clefable, pikachu, vaporeon, palafin, armarouge, absol, meowscarada/sprigatito, grovyle, corviknight, ampharos, wooloo… just too many!

They are both good. Obviously more work went into the realistic frog, but 40 hours is a stretch. It was probably more like 1-4 hours (saying as someone who’s studied realism). The charming quality of the doodle frog is what made it stand out. It’s smart.

Tumblr is only good for extremely small and niche fandoms similarly to reddit. If I could mass exodus everyone from some of those smaller fandoms to an alternative like the fediverse I would, but most of them aren’t techy (or stubborn) so it’s difficult!

This seems quite useful. I’ve always been bad at setting up stores and picking prices for things. Thank you!

That’s awesome! What a cutie!

Not surprising. But still, ew.

She’s putting up with it, haha. Happy pride month, Lyra!

Hello Ziggy! Great silhouette you have there!

That’s sick. Not quite the same but reminds me of these two albino squirrels that lived in my childhood neighborhood. They stuck around for a surprisingly long time.

Preferably staying here. We need to keep growing Lemmy.

I haven’t seen anything like that, personally. I stick to my own communities and have had no issues so far. If anything it’s been leagues better than reddit because it’s so much smaller.

Yes, pretty much like /r/ShinyPokemon. I loved that place.

Awesome. Hoping for a shiny Pokémon community soon. I thought about making my own.

I gotcha. I think currently, you’d only get banned if they found out (which they can’t currently). If the app ever becomes more invasive client side, I’m certain it would cause a ban wave (and maybe a small riot) but for now, it’s not that risky.

You can get banned for third party clients? I’ve been using BetterDiscord for years now with no issues. I hate the direction of Discord though, I agree with everything else.
