Just ask them if they are a bot. Remember, you can't lie on the internet...

Yes but you can't edit other people's posts...

I think that if there is no one from your instance (which also happens to be my instance) is subscribed to a community on an instance other than your own then you have to search for it in the search bar (using the url or !community@lemmyinstance) before you will be able to interact with it. Lemmy doesn’t synchronize everything between all instances by default, only what is needed to save on resources.

As far as I can tell, Lemmy server update 0.18 will improve upon relative linking of instances so that a link such as /c/community@lemmyinstance (or the even simpler !community@lemmyinstance) will take everyone to their own instances' version of community@lemmyinstance (see this comment for a more detailed description)

You could always change your name to Lemmy?

I can confirm same on my fold 4 also.

I used to browse /psychedelicrock , /krautrock and /nearprog fairly often as a source for new music and I haven't found anything to replace them yet.

I have not. I thought about finding one of the fan edits that remove a ton of filler and so cut the 3 movies into 1 very long one but the pacing of the films wasn't my main complaint with them. There are totally scenes I would have been happy to have been cut and whilst that would have been an improvement, I just disliked so much of the actual movie part of the movies and I don't see how any fan edit could polish that turd into something I would happily re-watch over and over again like I do frequently with the LOTR movies (and don't get me wrong I still have some minor gripes with those movies too - such as how Faramir's interactions with Sam and Frodo differ from the books and how they turned Gimli into comedic relief for most of his scenes). But (despite being high fantasy) LOTR always feels real. The characters aren't just flanderised and walking one-liner machines. The battles are brutal and grounded in reality and don't feature any of this cinematic bullshit (goatshit?)

Decided to re-watch the hobbit trilogy to see if they were as bad as I remember them being. Whilst there were some scenes I thought were well done (Bilbo's conversation with smaug for example) the films just aren't good in the way the Lord of the Rings movies are. The LOTR movies feel properly epic and the hobbit movies just feel so "Hollywood" for lack of a better term. All the fight scenes are stupid with excessive cgi but the worst part I feel is the acrobatics of them all with characters leaping off scenery and twirling around whilst slicing up enemies. None of the battles feel "real" or realistic in the way they do in LOTR. The dialogue in the hobbit movies also suffers from what feels like Joss Whedon-esque script writing with tons of witty quips and "humorous" observations on the situation.

Yes! I love this album and have shared it with many people. I'm always so impressed by the sheer energy of the drumming on this record.

Yeah I'm currently waiting for lemm.ee to update to 0.18 so I can use jerboa again to access it instead of having to use a web browser.

The main concern with diastaticus yeasts is a lower than expected terminal gravity. Diastaticus yeasts are capable of producing amyloglucosidase which can break down the unfermentable sugars that contribute to final gravity in beer. Since mead and cider (and other fruit wines) are mainly fully fermentable sugars to begin with, diastaticus yeasts aren't really a concern.
