Personally, I wouldn’t mind if Beehaw changes forum software. I first came here to check out Lemmy on what looked like a safe instance, yes, but I stayed because I appreciated the calm community. I stopped participating when the Reddit migration happened, however, and Beehaw got more attention than before from other instances, and posters who don’t appreciate Beehaw’s policies. TBF however, recently I’ve gotten into more traditional forums, so perhaps I’m biased. But I believe that Beehaw is more than a Lemmy instance.

Welcome to Beehaw!

Ding, ding, ding! 🎉

Yes, I was thinking of The Sims.

Live out your fantasy life.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but people on Mastodon can follow Lemmy communities and create or comment on posts. The reverse can’t be said for Lemmy.

Take my upvote!

I got my laptop back from the repair shop. They said I really needed to replace the internal keyboard and touchpad components, but I just disabled them and stuck on an external keyboard and mouse.

Then I played Sims 4 for about four hours. Fun!

kbin is fairly new and just has one developer working on it, who’s also the sole admin of an instance that’s constantly under heavy load.

A little wait will not hurt you.

Late to the thread, but Sims 4!

I have 68 games in my Steam library that I haven’t touched.

On the other hand, I just finished Monument Valley 2 this weekend!

Cozy endless games like Minecraft, Stardew Valley, or Sims 4, where I can just get lost in the gameplay and don’t have to stress out over objectives or missions.

I like being ace. It does suck that in my home country, most people think that asexuality doesn’t exist.

A friend of mine asked me to take a Kinsey scale quiz for fun, and the result was that I was asexual. Then my friend said that didn’t seem right, so I retook it and it said I was bisexual.

It ws only when I met my boyfriend and developed feelings for him that I figured out: A) I think people are sexy, regardless of gender (hence my initial confused identification as bisexual); and B) I don’t need or want to have sexual intimacy with anyone, ever. Physical intimacy is fine, though.

Lemmur’s been abandoned, so as far as I know, Jerboa is the only option on Android right now 😢

No, I just got confused with the wording OTL

Oh… the wording confused me. Whoops!

I don’t think lemmy.one is deferated from Beehaw; I’m subscribed to one community there.

1st edit: I forgot this community isn’t on Beehaw.

2nd edit: Here’s a link of all the instances that Beehaw is federated with, and lemmy.one is one of them. sopuli.xyz and feddit.de too.

3rd edit: Apparently, I’m Jared, 19, and I cannot read. Sorry about that!

I’ve been wanting to try Ironsworn since it launched, but I always get distracted 😅

Ever since I took on a new role at work, I’ve been busy attending more meetings with Very Important People than before. For someone like me who prefers not have the attention of Very Important People, it’s nerve-wracking.

TL;DR: an app won’t solve your problem, but learning to organize yourself will

At the risk of overstepping, I’ll say this:

If you have a problem with organization (or lack thereof), a calendar app will only help you so far. You can still miss an appointment by swiping away a notification or neglecting to jot down the appointment in the first place. Software are just tools: they won’t magically transform you and your habits.

(Disclaimer: I’m not a productivity expert or anything; I’m just applying what I’ve learned so far in life.)

First, think about your current internal system of keeping track of things. How is information getting lost? Why is it getting lost. From what I’ve read, disorganization is just a symptom of a deeper, underlying issue. In my case, I just didn’t like thinking about things I didn’t want to do or didn’t consider important, so I didn’t bother noting them down. So how did I remedy that? I have a notetaking app (Simple Notes or Markor) that’s empty by default and placed in my phone favorites bar/dock. As soon as I need to jot down something, it goes there. Once I can take my time, I review what I’ve jotted down and decide my next steps. When the tasks are done, the app gets cleared.

Second, think about what has worked for you in the past. Are there things that you managed to remember, and what helped you remember them back then? Personally, I remember things when I see them often, so writing down tasks in my notetaking app already works. However, for things that have set or faraway schedules, they get moved to apps with persistent notifications (Tasks.org and Simple Calendar, synced with EteSync).

Third… rinse and repeat. You may find that your new system still has gaps. That’s just part of learning how you best organize. Don’t be afraid to experiment, but don’t forget, and I cannot stress this enough, that SOFTWARE ARE JUST TOOLS. If an app doesn’t work for you, then it just doesn’t fit you, period. It’s not a failing of the developer or you. Once you find an organization system works for you, you’ll find that it’s so natural that it’s just second-nature. What apps to use will come after.

I’m sorry for the long comment and that this wasn’t what was asked, but I felt that this needed to be said. I do hope it helps you in some way.
