My oldest account is at 9 years 10 months at the moment. Was a lurker for a time before that too. I haven’t deleted my accounts out of concern of my comments reappearing, but I’ve kept any interaction with that site at a minimum.

Most of the time, I just check to see if any comments resurfaced, or if I’ve got a love letter from the admins. Neither has happened so far, but I’m not sure it won’t happen. Until then, I will keep scrubbing my accounts.

I don’t see myself returning there. I’ve lost any desire to do so, and my old, yet scrubbed accounts will serve as a reminder never to interact with that site ever again. Peek, if I must, but never interact.

That’s my Subscriptions feed, sorted by hot. This is the only post that’s about that orangered site.

PS: Oh, if you’re wondering, yeah, that’s from Lemm.ee I am using my lemmy.world account right now to make this comment though.

There’s also lemmynsfw for that kind of thing.

Wouldn’t that end up as porn?

Thanks for this tip. I’ll keep this in mind the next time I’d literally touch grass (like a camping trip or sth), lol!

If you’ve got a way to access your user profile via a browser (mobile works too), you can see your saved posts there.

On any page, click/press the hamburger icon on the top-leftmost part of your screen. It’d open up a menu (or an area) where you can see your profile picture and username at the very bottom. There’s a triangle next to your username, click/press that.

Another menu/area opens up that has options “Profile”, “Settings”, and “Logout”. Click/press “Profile” to see your user profile.

You’re then taken to a different page (which you can directly go to via https://your.lemmy.instance/u/your_username, for example:‌‌‌ https://lemmy.world/u/AllGoesUpMustGoDown). There, you can choose between “Overview”, “Comments”, “Posts” and “Saved.” That last link (to your saved posts/comments) won’t be visible to others (I tried).

PS: I tried looking for the same in wefwef, but I can’t find it as well.

PPS: Weirdly enough, it might be faster to just go directly via the address bar of your (mobile) browser if you know what you’re doing, lol!

Edit: Typos and shit. Added PPS part.

Yeah, I suppose it isn’t as crazy as I thought people would perceive it to be.

I’ve always used a Bluetooth speaker for listening to music in the shower. It’s much easier and doesn’t require me touching my phone.

Doesn’t this damage your Bluetooth speaker? Or is it, and especially its controls, waterproof/water-resistant?

Hahaha! Touché. I’ve had none. I’ve some weird thoughts as I drift off to sleep though.

I sometimes listen to music or watch videos in the shower. I double-bag it in clear plastic bags, and then put it in a safe location. When I change songs or videos, I‌ can interact with the screen like normal. Maybe it’s just my phone or the plastic bags I use–maybe both?

I use something like below, minus the ziplock:

I suppose there are actual products meant for making phones more waterproof in these situations, but I didn’t bother looking for those.

I’ve used my smartphone in the shower a handful of times already, but I usually take steps to double bag it (put it in a clear plastic bag upside down first, fold the excess, then put it in another clear plastic bag the right way up this time). I also just let it play music/video so that I can listen/watch while I shower.

It feels like a luxury to me when I do that.

My girlfriend’s grandfather decided almost overnight that he was an old man and suddenly began to act the part.

This has brought quite a funny mental image to me.

A man like this

suddenly turning into this

almost like magic.

No problem, glad to be of help.

I was wrong about it being a fork of the original, but it was a rewrite of it.

https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit

It has forks of its own too, but I haven’t really done much legwork on this. Also, the version I have is a bit behind (v.0.7.3). Looking at their more recent releases, the dev has added more features in response to the growing demand after the blackouts. I’m going to update to the latest version as well.

It’s one of the forks of the original. I’m not on the desktop right now, but I remember it being one of the forks that allowed me to download a packaged binary (too lazy to deal with docker, npm and the like).

Once I am back on the desktop, I’ll let you know the exact fork I got it from.

Coming from someone who was your age before you were born: you do you.

‘Age’ is mostly just a matter of experience and perspective anyways. I could be as old as earth itself but lack the experience to know any better. On the other hand, you could have a better perspective on things (compared to me) because you have been through a lot, or is more thoughtful and reflective about things.

Alternatively to keep on deleting my reddit posts every day ?

Late to the game here, but that’s the approach I’ve gone with. I got Shreddit, made a config file (containing the necessary detail for all my accounts), and made a shell script that I ran three times a day, likely until June 30.

Nowadays, my accounts look clean enough, and whenever some post or comment resurface, the next run of the script should take care of it.

And just on top of all that, I do check my accounts from a different browser I never use Reddit on. So far it’s clean-looking, no posts or replies showing on any of them. But whether or not Reddit actually deleted them, I’m not sure. I’m never sure.

Not visually impaired, but I thank you nevertheless.

But, yeah, this actually made me curious: image-based memes, how do visually-impaired people enjoy them? How different would it be to compared to how sighted people enjoy them?

I only wish I can actually go ahead and buy one; good pillows as well.

But then again, I’m just in a really shitty financial situation. Maybe when things turn around for me, I can invest on those.

Proper dental hygiene is something that one should make a habit from a young age. By the time one realizes its value, like I did, it might already be too late.

Ditto with sleep hygiene. Those two are habits that I think should be learned and reinforced from a young age.

It’s not just OPs strange and mysterious predicament that has made this thread epic, but also the genuine efforts of some of us to help OP in the midst of wild, off the wall, guessing.

And then there’s the misplaced reply that ended up in the perfect place.

And I’m glad to have seen it first hand.
