  • I bought a Tesla because I wanted an electric car with certain features and all the other brands, sold thru dealerships, insisted in charging a ‘low stock’ fee of $6-$10k that I wasn’t willing to pay, even though I prefer some of the other options.

    If that makes me a tool… well, ok I guess. I’ll be in the shed if you need me









  • It does, to a degree.

    One of the ways Lemmy sorts posts is by local. being on a bigger/busier instance will return more stuff there. Also ‘All’ will return stuff from communities that at least one person from your instance have subscribed, so same thing, more users more results.

    Another thing to look for is instances position on defederating other communities, requirements for email/application, etc…

    Ideally you will find a community that appeals to you.

    I picked lemmy.fmhy.ml without knowing much. I did so because they allowed NSFW without being a NSFW community. I couldn’t be happier with my decision

    Good luck and enjoy the lemmyverse


  • There are things like grammarly to help you with your grammar (and a tiny bit of style)

    Many writers and copy editors have YouTube channels and tiktoks with tips and tricks. For example, you can look for how to show instead of tell on YouTube and you’ll see a few.

    Brandon Sanderson has a whole bunch of them on wold creation

    If you decide to ‘train’ with fan fiction, you can give wattpad a try to publish your stories and see how people like them
