  • It’s strange, I downloaded a gif to my photo and selected it as an image for a Memmy post. The post worked and was upvoted so others must see it. But the actual gif is not visible on Memmy. The gif does play on a mobile browser though.

    I want to try posting a direct link to a gif and see what it looks like. Can you see the gif below?

    Nope

    It looks like you need to use the format:

  • I found beehaw first, so I started there but then discovered that the admins manage the community creation there. So I made a new account on lemmy.world to mod that, and most browsed with my beehaw account. But then beehaw needed to de-federate from lemmy.world, so I made a vLemmy and lemmy.one accounts so I could interact with both beehaw and lemmy.world.

    tl;dr As someone else mentioned, finding a smaller, low-profile instance to have your home account but interacting with other instances seems to be the best approach


  • That is odd. I used my vLemmy account and was able to search and find that community with wefwef and the mobile browser.

    I haven’t read the entire guide, but if no one from your home instance has searched for a certain community on another instance, it won’t find it until someone searches with the full instance name to initialize the connection. For example, if no one from vLemmy has done this for that Education community, I would need to go to Communities > select All > search “!education@lemmy.world” and wait for the spinning wheel. It’s not intuitive, but after a few seconds vLemmy connects with that community and can now be searched. So you delete your search text, keep All selected, but now can just search “education” and it should become visible with the option to subscribe.

    Let me know whether that helps or you’re still getting stuck.






  • So I worked at a plasma donation center and in a hospital. I will tell you that the training at the place I was at was very brief and you are somewhat practice for many new phlebotomists. I will also say I cared for at least two patients that were hospitalized after people missed their sticks at the donation centers and the patients had huge vascular issues after that.

    That being said many people do it and it turns out just fine. It’s easy money if you can tolerate it. But I would not recommend it, as it can eventually cause scarring to your veins and it may be difficult to start an IV when you are older and actually really need that access site.




  • I’m sorry to hear that; I hope everything turns out alright.

    I guess it depends on their type of humor. I don’t have memes, but I know a few dad jokes.

    Did you hear about that other guy that got all of those toy horses stuck up his rectum? …Don’t worry, they’re saying his condition is stable

    Have you seen that movie called Constipation? …It still hasn’t come out.

    Sorry, I have this illness that I make airplane puns. …Doctors say it’s terminal

    Speaking of doctors, do you know what kind of doctor that Dr Pepper is? …A fizz-ician
