  • Occasionally find myself envying people with faith and wonder how my life is different than theirs.

    The thing is, there’s nothing stopping you from having faith. But do keep in mind that you want to have faith in something that is not shitty.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falun_Gong this one seems nice. Promotes meditation, physical exercise, as well as peaceful civil involvement in society helping others and doing good, which will help you reach spiritual enlightenment.

    So while I personally like and prefer having a yawning void where some other people have faith, I generally recommend this religion to people who prefer having faith. If this one isn’t to your liking, perhaps research what other non-shitty options are there.

    And as a general pro tip when going with the faith option: please, no fanaticism.

    Edit: I’ve read some more on this, and this religion has some shitty postulations too. Well, keep looking out.





  • Nice.

    How is this not a solved problem?

    Tradeoffs I’d imagine. Lemmy devs need to prioritize between lots of things that absolutely need to be addressed first (like the recent vulnerabilities), and as a result relatively “minor” issues like this gets stuck on the sidelines. In addition to that, “beauty is in the eye of beholder”, so spending development time on this stuff when it might not even be acceptable to people is… well, wasteful.

    That being said, the code is open source, so anyone can help and contribute improvements/fixes.

    Am I the only person who cares about seeing the image at a larger resolution?

    Definitely not. I didn’t quite realize just how much of a difference this would make, but now that I’ve added it to CSS overrides it does make a huge difference. Thanks for pointing it out.
