Today’s Ask PHlemmings: What is one conspiracy theory that you actually believe?
Na minahal nya din ako

Lol no, all he said was facts
So far his predictions have come true. We entered the “Malacanang shitty” in 2016, Mrs. Marcos is back in power, Noynoy passed away (albeit not by decapitation), and we can now fight Gosling after he starred in Barbie.
I hope I’m still alive when the magnafanta computer is finally introduced in 2046.

Good morning PHLemmies! Have a great sunday ✨
Good afternoon!
Lagpas dalawang linggo na pala ang community na ito dito.
I’ve been checking Lemmy almost ever since the weekend just before the blackouts, replacing Reddit as my addiction (of sorts). I’ve also managed to subscribe to a good number of communities, such that my feed is now quite healthy with content. I almost never get the urge to browse Reddit anymore, not even with all the mention of it in my feed.
How about you guys? Kamusta naman ang Lemmy experience ninyo thus far?
onga buti dumami na users kaya dami na rin posts+comments, sana dumami pa sa July 1
Sana nga rin. At sana yung mga matitino ang dumagsa dito. Lol!
Oo nga, guys like cheese_sticks and also those who appeared to have opted out a long time ago like GuitarEater2. Sana they end up stumbling here.
Ano nga ba nangyari kay Guitareater? Alam ko nadelete ang original account niya for some reason, pero yung second account niya naging inactive lang ba?
Judging from his semi-return last year, I think nag-decide siya iabandon yung r/PH voluntarily and just checked back in that one time. He wasn’t banned or anything.
Haha! Seriously hoping hindi pumunta dito ang feeling mod at yung mra na apparently conspiracy theorist din.
Ay, teka, anuyan? Hahaha! Parang nakakatakot mag-usisa. Blissfully ignorant ako sa mga kaganapan dun sa kabila eh.
Don’t worry about it nalang hahaha. Pero matagal na sila sa r/ph and sa opinion ko super problematic sila.
si pobautista ba ituu? Hahaha
Uy chismis 👀👀👀
I still go to reddit for some of my interests that aren’t here yet, but for news, I use Lemmy na.
Ayun lang. Ayaw kong tignan yung mga subreddits for my interests na ala dito. Natatakot akong maging marupok at magbalik-loob kay Poong $₱€Ƶ eh. HAHAHA!
But i need my news about wrestliiiiing hahaha. Seriously though, I’m trying to limit my usage na. Siguro pag nagupgrade na ang Lemmy World to .18 mas magagamit ko since wala na dapat yung autopopulation ng bagong posts sa All.
But i need my news about wrestliiiiing hahaha.
I know, right? Not about wrestling, pero may ganyang itch din ako kahit papaano. Laking tulong ng Teddit at yung Privacy Redirect for those times na talagang di ako makapagpigil na sumilip (at di naman kailangang makihalubilo dun).
Lagi kong nakakalimutan na may Teddit nga pala, will try to use that nalang. Salamat sa reminder.
Try mo yung Privacy Redirect na addon para di mo na kailangang isipin. Meron siyang option to replace Twitter, Youtube, Instagram, and Reddit (among others). Para pag may ma-click kang link to any of those you opt to replace (say, Reddit) i-eedit nya yung link.
Now, I have to specifically temporary disable redirection for Reddit, to go to Reddit (if I am checking my accounts for any comments/posts for anything na nag-macArthur).

Ay! Thanks for reminding me of that. Tagal na rin akong may Mastodon, pero sobrang hirap makahanap ng PH content, lalo na yung news and current events. Umabot sa point na recently nag-iisip ako kung kakayanin ko bang gumawa ng bot pang-repost galing Philippine news sources as well as PAG-ASA and Philvolcs. Kaso may nag-remind sa akin ginto na pala ang API access sa Twitter.
Mag-tatanong-tanong nga sana ako dito kung may alam silang magandang i-follow for PH-related things sa Mastodon eh. Forgot all about that tho until your reply.
the search function of mastodon is easier to use than lemmys but i find conversations easier here. mas may community na vibe dito that is missing in mastodon. am now using this community more than reddit. edit: thanks for the news bots.
wanted to support the federation so after setting up mastodon, i also created a pixelfed account. i like the instance (pxlmo.com), just people sharing their photos and art. sa mga nagbabalak iwan ang instagram, join us.
Ever since the blackout, I barely go back. The only times that I do is 1) to look for AskReddit material for the RD thread, 2) when someone links to juicy content, 3) close down r/thevisoria, and 4) peek at r/PH’s frontpage occasionally, particularly nung polling.
But I stopped posting and likely never will again. Wala rin ako itch to do so.
Thank you for the effort maglagay ng content dito para maengage ang members.
opening an OnlyFans account
Uhm… 👀
You know what, after reading some of the replies here, I’m starting to think of this place as some kind of a safe zone, a lounge where people can just relax and take a break from all of the havoc happening elsewhere online.
Okay naman. Kaso ung dose of irl drama ko wala dito kaya I use libreddit for offmychestph and rel advice ph HAHAH
Hahahaha! Ang sama ng mental image na na-imagine ko! Parang pinapanood natin sila from a secure location, parang massive multiplayer online version ng Big Brother house, tapos tayo ang audience. 😅
It’s been slow for lemmy communities to form. Partly na rin siguro madami parin fence sitters sa reddit debacle up until July I suppose. Kaunti palang nasasalihan kong communities tho.
Pansin ko lang, nag nose dive na moderation sa rph. I don’t know if it’s just me but the posts are all over.

Not wanting to toot my own horn but some of this is me, I think. I’m very unforgiving of low-effort posts that could be answered with just one reply. Tipong topics that belong in the Help Thread or already been asked/addressed several times before. Makukulong ka ba if hindi mo binayaran yung 800 pesos na balance sa PLDT or takbuhan mo Anytime Fitness membership. Best earphones for 200 pesos na goods na goods. IT o Accounting, ano kukunin ko na course? Innova o Avanza?
Karma farm or redundant threads bwisit rin kami. Yung mga “Ako lang ba naiinis sa utang na loob”, “What’s your favorite pancit canton?”, “Toxic Filipino Culture”, tinatanggal ko na lang without any explanation, lol.
The last month or so we were very consistent with this to the point na yung mga threads na otherwise matatabunan papunta sa third page, get a chance to shine. A good example was DENR planting the wrong Mangrove specie — it only had 11 replies on its first day and mushroomed to 195 in just a few days.
“What’s your favorite pancit canton?”
LMAO. I had to stop myself from flaming the Piattos flavor thread. If the mods really are quietly stepping away, I fully support it. We didn’t get the chance to troll protest like the other cool subs. I guess this is my consolation.

r/philippines is no longer a valuable place for anything Philippines. Some PSAs, natatabunan na rin dahil sa mga bwisit na imported socmed dramas na wala naman tayo, mga Redditors, walang pake.
Karma points instigate how good or bad you are on Reddit, so kung negative karma ka, they’ll proceed to call you as “troll” lol
What’s your favorite pancit canton?
Bruh…
Yeah, r/ph is kinda shitty now. Sana ni-utilize nila yung other filipino subreddits instead of just lumping it in one place. There’s AskPH, CasualPH, PHGaming etc. and if you like shitposting, there’s 2philippines4u but because r/ph is the biggest filipino subreddit they flocked to it and posted there because where will they get their sweet, sweet karma? And then there’s the screenshot posts. If screenshot ng news, sana man lang kahit dinagdag nila yung source instead na nagmamadali silang ipost para sa kuhhhrma. 😑😑

Karma points are no different to YouTube’s and Facebook’s Internet points.
I’m still LMFAO when most kakampinks migrated from Facebook to Reddit, dahil “walang peknews at mindful” ang mga Redditor. Oh boy…
deleted by creator
Yeah, bruh, those “points.” Kung wala kang trillion Internet points, kawawa ka. lol
Lemmy consists of 80% literacy and 20% of photos/GIFs. I love reading, especially the thread na pasok sa niche ko. Reddit was once like that, but now it becomes “hieroglyphic” and full of “imported stuffs.”
deleted by creator
Akala ko ako lang. I’m not even subscribed to that.
Meron ba ditong mga childfree? Yung r/ChildfreePhilippines more than 1k pero di naman active lol
Baka nag-quit Reddit na, haha.
Hahaha. Pweds. Yung r/childfree nga wala na daw eh. Lumipat na dito.
Saan instance sila?
deleted by creator
Hindi yung PH sub yung sinasabi ko. Hahaha. Sorry ang gulo kong kausap.
Childish, meron! Joke!
Used to regularly take a peek at /r/childfree years back, pero di ko na rin kinaya yung tone nila dun. There’s only enough ways to say “being childfree is a choice!” “It’s a sin to make another soul undergo torment in this world!” or other stuff.
I get it, it’s difficult to live a childfree life, especially when surrounded by the conservative, religious-minded. I get the need to rant about it, pero susmiyo… Like, uh, parang ang hirap mag-tambay dun nang matagal.
Sorry for the rant ah.
It’s okay. I get what you mean. Medyo ganun nga doon. Naging lurker din ako. This year ko lang nalaman na may mga ganun palang sub. I remember months ago someone posted sa r/ph asking if may childfree people ba doon and their reasons why they chose to be so tapos ang daming nagreply. Napaisip lang ako kung andito din sila.
Ok this is just hilarious. It’s funny how some subreddits are being clever with their protests. r/dndmemes is just straight up goblin rule 34 now.
deleted by creator
Yup. Buried underneath most of the “ReTiReMeNt PlAn nG mAgUlAnG” circle jerk is the sad reality that retirement homes are not a thing here, and that it costs upwards to 1 million annually per person (looking at RainTree at least).

Protip: for those who use Dark Reader add-on/extension change your contrast to 115 and brightness to 85.
tinry ko din yan sa Firefox for my work, kaya lang bumabagal or nagha-hang habang tumatagal
Nakaka-bagal/hang pala yung Dark Reader?
I’ve been having some random slowdowns and the occasional hang the past few days eh. Kaso di ko na masyado inusisa since wala akong mapansin na commonality other than a slowdown, tapos hang.
how is it that both Black Mirror S6E1 and S6E2 are dogshit? :((((((( this is the kind of dread i can only get from the show that i’ve been longing for, but this time it’s from the show dying :((((((((((((((((((
My speculation: I think the creator, Charlie Brooker, intentionally made this show worse because they don’t own or don’t have massive creative control on this show anymore. They made a nod in S06E05 by introducing a new label, “Red Mirror,” focusing on horror-themed stories rather than sci-fi/techno-themed. “Loch Henry” and 'Demon '79" are clearly not belong to Black Mirror, and are uniquely made.
I don’t know what happened to Charlie Brooker with Mazey Day. That was straight-up C-grade movie. lol
well i guess i’ll just follow where they end up going when they get their creative control back. Netflix just fucks wth
Netflix has nothing to do with this. Charlie Brooker himself wants to reinvent the show. Kung napanood mo na ang Demon '79, yun na ang simula.
Yo… I fully agree with you this season has been meh. Episode 6 nalang hindi ko napapanood.
Lumang theme naman na kasi yung episode 1. Social media bad, internet bad. Rehashed over and over again every season.
Wala na yung moral dillema na nagpapa self reflect sa viewer. It’s more on shock and awe now for the sake of it.
Me and the wife have been huge fans ever since nasa BBC pa siya. While the tone shifted drastically with the move to Netflix, I can sorta see why they nearly pivoted away from it completely this season by going absurdist and meta-humor. There’s only so much you can do with “technology is bad” and being known for twists e.
BBC
It wasn’t aired on BBC. Black Mirror was first aired on Channel 4, counterpart ng BBC. Black Mirror is the reason I gained knowledge of Dogme 95 (typically an ultra-guerilla style of filmmakimg) from S01E01.
Yeah, I missed the vibe of S01 and S02 na napaka-bleak ng storytelling, and thick UK and Scottish accents. Haha
Channel 4 pala sorry, haha. Basta around 2010-13 we were binging British shows hard. Nagsimula sa Sherlock, napunta sa Happy Valley, The Fades, Utopia, The Shadow Line, and so on.
Black Mirror is also what got me into looking for similar shows, to no avail. People always recommend anthology shows, but it’s a different type of anthology. There’s nothing quite like it. It did get me into Jam, which was a series I never would have come across.
Love, Death, and Robots
I recommend this show for its innovation. The animations are state-of-the-art. Be warn: intense graphics, flashing lights, explicit sexual content.
and hindi lang siya diverse sa themes and genres. pati art style din. if you like animated movies, you will be spoiled by the variety. ganda ng art, ex- Jibaro.
Jibaro is a chef’s kiss. I was astounded how “ultra-realistic” that episode.
I recently played Hill Climb Racing 2 on my smartphone and these Coin Master and TongIts Go whatever extensively popped during gameplays, and I never turned on my Google’s personalized ads settings. I can assume our geo-based Internet ads are filled with gambling-themed
It’s been awhile since I fully disconnected to a VPN tunnel, and I thought chocolate ads from EU and mobile plan ads and skin care products from JP and SG were shit. May mas malala pa pala… haha.
I have a ton of basil and no idea what to do with it. Any suggestions that’s not pesto?

Nagluto akong lasagna kasi birthday ni papa tapos ang funny ni mama, sobrang fineflex sa mga tita ko yung lasagna. Hahaha. Masarap naman daw.
