Doing my part in c/fedigrow@lemm.ee
[–] Emotional_Series7814@kbin.melroy.org 1 points 1 week ago

I posted a comment on YouTube exactly once in my life (providing the lyrics to what the person sang), and plan to never do it again. I usually scroll through others' while watching.

I cannot possibly be the only person who does this, especially since some peoples' comments garner a bunch of thumbs ups and actually coherent replies in addition to the usual trash you see on YouTube (spam or totally out-of-pocket insults).

NiceMemes – fun memes and images without the risk of getting sad! in c/communitypromo@lemmy.ca

Wow, you identified the entire reason I have avoided meme communities online. Glad to know I wasn't alone in that. Thanks for making this! Now I can add some online humor back into my day.

Anyone know of a community where moderators can get support moderating? in c/fedigrow@lemm.ee

Idea: Allow community mods to edit post titles of other users? in c/fedigrow@lemm.ee
[–] Emotional_Series7814@kbin.melroy.org 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

"Please edit your post title to [whatever it should be edited to to reflect community standards]" in the comments from a mod would also resolve the problems you have. In my opinion looking anal about rule enforcement > potential for abuse.

Although I do think if flairs are implemented, mods changing flair would probably be a good option—far less room to change what the original poster is saying to make them look bad.

What is the biggest point of friction in your PKMS right now? (kbin.melroy.org)
 

In other words, the biggest bother, the most annoying annoyance. Maybe it's something you wish your system had a nice dedicated tool for but it doesn't, so you have a clumsy workaround. Maybe it's something that your system would work well for if it weren't for this one little thing. Whatever it is, talk about it here!

(article from 2024) French seniors keeping healthy with e-bowling in c/upliftingnews@lemmy.world
[–] Emotional_Series7814@kbin.melroy.org 1 points 3 months ago

More used to seeing articles panic about video games, so it's nice to see a positive article about them. Especially with a demographic not really known for playing them. I'm not the eSport type but this is going to be me when I am old, playing games while the kids yell at me to get off the ancient PC and get with the VR2000 times. It's just nice to see people being happy and healthy.

Chappell Roan Gave the Speech of the Night at the 2025 Grammys in c/upliftingnews@lemmy.world
[–] Emotional_Series7814@kbin.melroy.org 1 points 3 months ago

Thanks for the description. I don't follow award ceremonies so just going by the title it is really unclear why is this supposed to be uplifting, and comes off as just typical celebrity news. The description tells me neatly, and lets me click on the article if I want further elaboration.

How is keeping a PKMS different from journaling, if at all? (kbin.melroy.org)
 

Figured it might be a good discussion question. Originally posted to our friends over at !journaling@sh.itjust.works.

I think of what I have far more as a Personal Knowledge Management System than a journal. I spend far less time on personal feelings and thoughts and “what did I do today?” and a lot more on making it a knowledge repository for Future Me.

Forever ✱ Notes (www.myforevernotes.com)
 

Designed for Apple Notes but I have heard of people doing this in Obsidian. I like looking at different knowledge organization systems, so I'll be looking into this even though I'm definitely not going to use Apple Notes.

How do you handle your To-Read/Watch/Play lists (for media consumption, not for tasks)? (kbin.melroy.org)
 

I thought I'd ask, since I have an organized method for some forms of media (things you watch, which is ironic given I spend much less time on watching tv/movies/videos than I do on any other form of media consumption) and for others… not so much. And I probably should organize the other methods and implement a system I'll actually use, instead of just tossing them on the To-Watch/Play/Read list and never actually consuming the things on the list.

Cataloging, Classification, Information Science, PKMs and YOU! (forum.obsidian.md)
 

Links to Obsidian forums, but the information here is applicable for any PKMS, not just one using the Obsidian software.

Hi y’all— I’m here today to talk about library and information science (LIS), personal knowledge management (PKM), and YOU.

Since this whole PKM/B (base) thing has taken off there has been endless endless endless discussion on how to organize things. Systems seem to pop up all the time ranging from PARA to Johnny Decimal, to folksonomies, etc, etc. This is a really fascinating and interesting time to be around and also very exciting to see this developing. however one thing that gets lost in all of these back and forth and arguments is that there is an entire field dedicated to the representation organization cataloging and classification of knowledge, a field that has been around for hundreds of years & has the experience of thousands of people involved: library and information science.

As far as I’m able to discern, almost none of these novel PKM or PKB organization systems have benefited from the input of library and information science. There are a lot of things that the LIS field can provide to help all y’all PKM folks. I’m going to talk about that a bit…

AppFlowy, an open source alternative to Notion with AI (github.com)
 

Found out about this. I'm already on Obsidian but I might check it out. Very not interested in the AI, but since it's open source you can definitely try to remove it instead of having it forcibly shoved onto you with no way to try to turn it off like with Notion.

Professor’s Discrete Math Notes in PKMS system (Obsidian) (publish.obsidian.md)
 

Originally posted to !obsidianmd.

This is absolutely gorgeous. I take academic notes in Obsidian and am going to take several cues from this professor’s notes.

I may have also been trying to make a similar thing for math in general, including discrete mathematics. The professor’s turned out prettier than my own. Still going to make my own, taking/making the notes myself will reinforce these topics, but this is definitely a handy reference.
