  • Wow, this looks beautiful! Love the selection of icons, too. It already feels great and I can tell this is gonna be stellar. Just being able to pin communities is something I really missed from Apollo/reddit so it’s rad that you’ve already got it in there! 🙌

    Edit: Any chance we can get rotation when viewing images so we can view them in landscape? As an older lady my close vision is going and I often need to go landscape to see/read things better. :)





  • I’ve been following H5N1 pretty closely for several months and one of the first things I did on Lemmy was set up a community to post news stories to. !h5n1_avianflu@lemmy.sdf.org

    5 more of the deceased cats in Poland were confirmed today to have died of H5N1 for a total of 34 now. There was a report that one of the owners provided a sample of raw chicken that had been fed to the cats, and it tested positive for H5N1. This was almost immediately followed up by a very defensive press conference with the Polish government insisting it wasn’t true; Poland supplies about 20% of the European market for chicken. Make of that what you will.

    That none of the owners got sick is great news, but no one should be breathing easy about what’s happening globally. :|











  • We didn’t get it until the beginning of the year and it laid the household low. The younger people recovered more quickly than us middle-aged ones did. I think it was about two weeks before I really had my energy back.

    It only took one person to take their mask off to eat indoors one time to get us all sick and he was really pissed at himself. 😐 We still mask because we have elderly parents, cancer patients, and a transplant patient in the family, and really don’t want to infect them.

    Glad you’re feeling better!
