  • The vast majority of those are useless animations. Some are even a much worse implementation of something done much simpler with JS and requires significantly more code weighing down the page speed. Some examples of this are the cursor tracking examples which use hundreds of divs in a grid.

    While there are some useful examples, it seems like this repo is more of a list of to show off advanced CSS, fancy animations, and designs.





  • First, Lemmy is not reddit. They are similar platforms, but they share still drastically different. More importantly, I’m specifically talking about the platform, not the general idea of managing a “community” in the broader sense.

    For example, knowing modlogs exist and understanding the modlogs and that they are public. Also understanding how users from different instances interact with other instances. Where to find the moderator tools and information regarding moderation.

    It seems you want to run a community entirely off of a mobile device using an app, but none of the apps are really fully compatible with moderation tools. The best way to moderate is via a browser.

    There’s just more to running a community than just clicking the create button, deciding on a name, and posting content.


  • Since you got the answer you were looking for. I’d like to address this:

    My doctor said if I have ADHD, that it’s not bad enough to do anything about.

    That response is just awful. How would they know? If they knew the bare minimum about these types of conditions, then they would never say anything like that (i.e. masking symptoms to try to ‘fit in’ and such). Otherwise, if they don’t know enough about the subject, then they shouldn’t be acting like they do. A doctor should be familiar with saying something like “let me look into that more.”

    Undiagnosed and unmanaged ADHD (and/or autism and general anxiety disorder, which are comorbidities) leads to a drastic increase of the likelihood of developing drug abuse and addiction, and even an increase in mortality rates and decreased life expectancy (link) among other issues.






  • Two years for me, too. But I disagree that it’s nicer than on Reddit. The way Lemmy works fosters the development of cliques. Also, with much fewer users it makes it so that ‘power’ users wind up having a weird cult-like following that boosts their posts/comments and suppresses anyone who dares to point out when those people mistreat other people and/or break the rules that are clearly applied selectively.







  • I’m glad it helped you understand!

    It might also help to understand that’s already a big problem that the whole LGBTQ+ community has to deal with, that people don’t understand and say/do very nasty things and then we can’t know if there was nefarious intention or just a lack of understanding/experience/knowledge. Then it gets really exhausting to try to handle every situation as if the person just doesn’t understand, responding earnestly to try to explain and then it just turns out they were intending to be a shithead in the first place. So, I wouldn’t blame whoever banned you for just not having the energy or bandwidth to try to explain at that time.

    Just try to remember and understand that people may not have the battery level to handle a situation like that perfectly every time. Especially considering that LGBTQ+ people have to constantly live very moment of their life like trying to swim up a waterfall of hate against them while everyone else only has to deal with a river or a creek with less resistance and even places to take a break and not have to fight a current at all.

    Not that it’s great to experience a person with a drained battery, but it’s definitely worse being the one with the consistently drained battery when you seldom get a chance to recharge it.
