My primary concern with the dongle is that I’ll have it plugged in and my dog jumps up and yanks my cord and damages the charging port on my phone.
Do you have experience with these? Do you know if my fear is unfounded?
Mostly harmless.

Do you know if that type of dongle is built into any phone cases? I tried searching for a phone case solution and couldn’t find any either.

It seems so strange to me that there aren’t a lot of people like me who really like the headphone jack. I assumed solutions would come out after they started to phase them out of phones, but it seems like that’s not happening…
I definitely like the more personal nature of smaller communities, but for the sake of sharing information it’s not as good.
I enjoy some niche video games, and a centralized place to share information is extremely helpful for that. But also having smaller communities for more generalized topics is nice because you’ll actually get to know individuals.
Thank you again for the thorough explanation.
There are definitely pros and cons to having everything be decentralized. The fediverse seems a lot more like a thousand different forums with the same login.
Question - how are bad actors dealt with? If someone has their account banned on one lemmyverse, does it ban them for all?
Extremely helpful, thank you.
So if I’m understanding correctly, each lemmy instance is effectively it’s own forum/reddit, and being part of a lemmy instance gives us a passport to visit and interact with other lemmy instances, yeah?
And after us as individuals are more established and connected, we’ll naturally start to join and “import” communities within our home insurance and other Lemmy instances.
So, one final question, won’t this model lead to like, heavy fragmentation of communities? There’s pros and cons to that, but if I’m a fan of d&d, there will be a d&d community on many lemmy instances, and each of those would only be connected by visiting lemmy users that join multiple instances of the d&d community on different lemmy instances, right?
I was just going to say this! I follow a few subreddits that involve a lot of theories and sharing of video game information. Those would be absolutely gutted/non-existent with a small community because discoveries would be too slow to maintain interest for most.
I’m brand new and I have spent ~~almost a week ~~ a few days trying to log on for a second time (first time worked great, always timed out after that). But I’m here now!
One thing that has been frustrating is that 90% of the time I’ve seen someone say that it’s confusing, people just say IT’S SO EASY, TRY LEARNING and then the learning materials describe the concept of the fediverse and Lemmy but not how to use it.
I still don’t really understand. I’ve used a hundred different forums and forum-adjacent type services, and Lemmy seems to be similar enough to Reddit, except that each server is it’s own reddit, but if anyone on the server is connected to another server, it’ll pull in communities followed by anyone on the server?
Again, I don’t really get it. I’m trying, but it’s a bit confusing. I get that it’s decentralized and all the servers are unique and it’s one login, but I don’t get how the communities fit together between servers, if they do at all. Would this mean that we can have duplicate communities on different servers?

Gosh dangit you’re right. I checked into Xperia and apparently the singular model I checked doesn’t work on Verizon but many others do. Thank you so much.
