!ukraine@sopuli.xyz is the biggest on the Fediverse (see https://browse.feddit.de). Posts there come up on “All” very frequently.

Sopuli.xyz is a longstanding instance hosted in Finland.

Adding my voice to the chorus here… adopt from a rescue!

Nope. Not everything needs to be like Reddit IMO.

I wish we had universal links to specific posts! Glad you were able to find it. Link for others: https://lemdro.id/post/2022094 - seems to be a few updates since my last visit.

Some folks on the !android@lemdro.id post about this the other day cautioned about a tracker present in the app.

You wouldn’t have to go back that far to make $$$$. Just go back a week and buy the right stock options.

Awesome! Thanks for all your work on this :).

It’s a big problem in how Lemmy handles removals. I currently have to send a PM to each person explaining why and where they can post instead (e.g., asking them to post tech support questions to !askandroid@lemdro.id instead of !android@lemdro.id).

Thankfully Photon makes it easier to do this in one step, but it doesn’t support managing multiple types of responses.

Interesting. Thanks for this! Can it automatically post a reply or send a PM when something is removed explaining why?

Many are also Mastodon instances, which can be particularly troublesome.

That’s the beauty of it! Just like email, it doesn’t really matter which provider you sign up through. It gives you choice.

However, some instances do de-federate from other ones meaning you wouldn’t be able to see any content from communities hosted on them nor anything posted by their users.

I should probably specify that it does vary by jurisdiction when it comes to massage therapy. We have registered massage therapists here. Some massage therapists might employ some pseudoscience, but there’s solid evidence on the near-term therapeutic benefits of massage. For chiropractic, it’s pretty much entirely based on pseudoscience.

If you need to fix a problem, a physical therapist is the way to go. If you want temporary relief, a massage therapist can be helpful. There’s no good reason to see a chiropractor - and it’s unfortunate that insurance providers (including my own) don’t allow those funds to be spent on actual treatments.

The few things they do that work are still better delivered by physiotherapists and massage therapists without the pseudoscience.

Have you tried visiting a register massage therapist? They can provide even better immediate relief without the pseudoscience. It pairs very well with physical therapy.

The few things they do that are effective are better delivered by an evidence-based provider (e.g., physiotherapist, massage therapist) without the pseudoscience.

I’d just caution that coverage doesn’t necessarily mean effectiveness.

There isn’t much evidence there. There’s dry needling, which is the evidence-based alternative with different techniques - but much of that is built on the same evidence behind massage therapy.

Like anywhere on the internet, it really comes down to doing your best to exude the kind of energy you want to receive back (and moderation/filtering). There are all types of people around and the key is to just do your best to stay positive. Moderation tools are also more primitive on Lemmy, so, as traffic grows, users will have a larger role to play in reporting and manually curating their feeds via blocking.

If it ever feels like too much, I also recommend taking a break from social media. You may also want to consider other instances like beehaw.org, which goes to great lengths to maintain its particular atmosphere.

Weird!!

Hah! 🙌 what was your Reddit handle?
