  • About time! I was using an Adobe suite program for podcast editing years ago (Adobe didn’t get my money :P) and switched to Audacity.

    I’d used Audacity fairly regularly for about 15 years and let me tell you; it was jarring how bad it was compared to modern software. I already see some UI/UX improvements that should make it much more user friendly.

    I remember reading somewhere that “we are the most exciting thing to happen in our pets’ lives”. It’s why I never get annoyed if my dog gets excited to see me.

    She’s pretty old now so no more jumping but every now and then lick or nip at my hands for a pat and it’s not because she’s being naughty, she’s just so excited to see me and wants some attention.











  • The breathing space between the constant fire hose of bad news is what I miss most from Reddit. Too many old (I assume) curmudgeons on Lemmy want this to be a 90’s Linux forum with a Politics discussion board and are hostile to any fun. So many times I’ve seen sentiment from users that anything mentioned should only be here if it’s going to lead to deep, informed, structured conversation. I always picture those people like Kyle’s dad from South Park sitting down at his PC in his office with a glass of red wine in hand (minus the vitriol that follows).

    While there’s obviously space for those discussions here it’d be nice to have more purely fun memes and discussions. Ones not about an ongoing genocide, or state run police crack downs, or companies invading deeply personal private information. More often than not Lemmy is deeply depressing with no respite.
