Yeah but if this is what it takes to get a recipe search result that isnt 50 ads and a 5 page essay before the actual content, I ain't going to complain.

Yeah this is the main reason I won't be giving up reddit 100% once the 3rd party apps go down. I definitely won't be doom scrolling on my phone like I used to, but I 100% will still use reddit on my desktop as a research tool. There's just nothing else like it for the amount of quality niche information atm.

Beautiful! I'm curious, how much carpentry and plumbing experience do you have? Looks like a pro job from here :)

I saw how long the list is and got kinda concerned I might miss out on content since I'm on beehaw, but now it just sounds like I'm getting sheltered from all the internet wackjobs lol

One instance might have separate rules than another, so you can use multiple to get around that. Also if one instance gets shutdown for whatever reason you'll need another instance to browse through.

Generally though, no. One instance is fine and helps keep the system from getting overloaded with users.

I've been slowly switching away from google products the past year or so. Switched from chrome to firefox, and google search to duckduckgo, but maps is one I couldn't give up. It's just better than all other competitors IMO.

 

I was trying to access !trees@sh.itjust.works through beehaw as it seems to be the largest related community currently, and I can't seem to access it, I just get a 404. I am able to access other communities on that instance, but not this one. Is it considered NSFW and thus blocked?

edit: working now. Tried it earlier and then tried again a few hours later and it was still not working. Looks like the solution is searching via beehaw itself with the full community address. going there via URL doesn't work to make beehaw recognize it.

There are a couple now, but still very small, like 3 posts a day small
