I remember being a small child posting to forums I had no business posting to, asking obnoxious questions about building websites or talking in IRC.

I remember always expecting a response that wasn't very happy with me. You have to start somewhere right?

Nope and never did.

This is awesome. Choice is always king! Competition means better products. This is going to be fun.

I've seen you pop up twice now in the verse and I had to stop and tell you your username is awesome!!

Is anybody else running into this problem?

My federated posts are appearing in my timeline quite well, however I've noticed that significant portions of the comment section are not being carried over.

For example, I'll see a post on my instance with 13 comments. I'll click on the fediverse icon to take me to the original source and that has 43 comments. Where did those 30 comments go?

The worst part is, I can't seem to figure out a way to "force sync" or refresh the page to make sure all the comments are carried over. Because of this, I feel like I'm only getting part of the conversation and I'm unable to reply to comments that don't appear on my instance.

Does anybody have any solutions to this problem? It's literally my one huge issue I have with my own instance.

I used to occasionally watch reruns on Fox when I was a kid, but I never have taken the time to watch it fully like this. It's fun trying to predict what year the episodes came out by the pop culture references :)

Right now, I think Season 4 came out in 1994. Haven't looked it up and won't until I finish watching the season.

I just watched Mr. Plow!!! Loved the story between Homer and Barney and found it hilarious that Marge wanted Homer to keep the jacket on in bed

Happy to say I haven't come across them yet

Are you talking about, subscribing? Subscribe to all of the communities you want and then sort by subscribed on your home page. If you want to folow a community that isn't on your instance, copy and paste the link to that community in your instance's search box and subscribe to it from there.

I'm totally with you. I feel as lemmy develops, we'll start to get more QoL. I've been having the same issue with not being able to post comments on random posts, and I have my own self hosted instance. I think it has something to do with the instance the content is hosted on being overloaded? Not sure how the backend works, truly.

What would also be kinda neat, is if I could eventually transfer my instance over to a kbin instance. I quite like the idea of being able to track my thoughts and experiences via microblogging, and I'm not sure if I want to have a seperate mastodon account for that.

Homer's Triple Bypass. Got it. I'm making a list of episodes to pay extra attention to, as recommended by ya'all here on lemmy. Great recommendations so far.

haha I'm gonna have to remember this one when I get to season 8. Thanks for sharing!!

I'm all for this bit. How dare they misconstrue the vast complexities of a xylophone?

 

I think I've finally gotten to the point on here where I'm following all if not most of the communities I'm interested in that are poppin on Lemmy right now.

Currently just hanging out on my couch, re-watching early episodes of The Simpsons, and reading articles online like its 2009. There's something about browsing nothing but people speaking with no ads, no boosts, just all genuine conversations.

Anybody else feeling satisfied with their fediverse instances? Any favorite epsiodes of The Simpsons? :)
