Hi! I'd definitely appreciate if you could still mod, but I do not mind helping!

Semi-recently took over [email protected], run [email protected], and previously ran its predecessor [email protected] before Kbin unexpectedly died.

 

[email protected]

Thought people might want to know. I literally just found out about this community. It currently has been inactive for 2 years, but if anyone finds void bunnies…

 

It's active.

[email protected]

I'll be giving this community a shoutout in the sidebar.

The mixing of the themes with an owl on a football is delightful.

Not a sports person myself but I can see why people like them. I have also accidentally fallen into the baseball video pipeline on YouTube.

Clicked a related link in that article.

"Just take a walk in nature, especially at dawn and dusk," they said. "It's currently [article posted February 11] flirting season for owls. So there are a lot of them out there making a lot of noise, either looking for love or trying to defend territory."

I've been taking my walks midday-ish, to coincide with the hottest part of the day. It is winter, after all. I guess that's why I haven't seen any owls.

Probably good to note dawn and dusk are good times for [email protected] too. Guess I should alter my walking patterns.

Unabashedly exploiting the treasure trove of this man's wildlife content on YouTube for Lemmy posting material. Thanks Robert E. Fuller

I know enough Japanese to know うさぎ is "bunny". I do trust Google Translate enough to show me "bunny" in other languages too. If I can find bunny videos in every language that would be amazing. People of all cultures and races just posting bunnies online because their cuteness is universal.

My recommendations get the same bunny videos over and over because I keep clicking them every time 😅

Is this from something?

My brain instantly went to the Great Pumpkin…

I see you have been taking a look at the Japanese side of bunny YouTube. Looking for foreign language bunny content there usually tends to turn up new stuff I haven't seen before a lot easier for me than English searches, perhaps because I make English searches a lot and I'm too eager to click on bunny videos I have watched before…

Bunny's environment looks nice and bright and happy!

Hey, thanks for taking me up on posting here! I was trying to prop up this place for a bit back when kbin.run wasn't totally dead and I still checked r/HFY. I sort of gave up around the same time kbin.run imploded, which was about the same time I think I stopped checking into r/HFY.

Oh boy. Well at least you can always obscure it with [text to click of a more reasonable length](the super long URL).

Find a bear to sublet to. Call it the owlbear brewery. Rake in the nerd money.

I prefer the drip-feed as a regular user. Seeing a big influx of posts in one day from a community I follow tends to drown out other communities I follow, and feels intimidating. I've currently signed up to see bunnies, owls, foxes, and snakes. If I see mostly snakes at the expense of foxes, owls, and bunnies I'm not going to be too thrilled. (In practice, this doesn't happen, [email protected] isn't that active, if you like snakes please post! I do whenever I run across some pleasing snake content in my regular internet browsing, maybe I should put more effort into explicitly finding snake and fox stuff again…)

I am more willing to let it go if I followed some giant community with lots of subscribers, because what did I expect, a big community is going to have lots of people wanting to post stuff. But if it is a small niche…

As a poster trying to keep Lemmy active and as a mod, I find things in bursts. So I break them up with https://schedule.lemmings.world/. Post one thing right now, do all the rest on that scheduler so they come out a couple days from now. That way I still get to "post" all at once—just into the scheduler, which will actually submit the posts in a more spaced out manner for me.

 

I would expect it to reduce the list of communities to just those I moderate, so just to [email protected] here. Instead it looks just like the Local list of communities for me. It occurred to me I could be very wrong about what Moderator view is supposed to be. How does this work?

 
 

I personally found this entertaining, but if stuffed animal bunnies are not what [email protected] wants to see, let me know and I'll delete this

 

Thought I'd change it up a bit from the pictures and videos I have been posting.

For many, having a rabbit occasionally hop through the lot is a valuable experience.

I've never felt more validated by an academic article in my entire life.

got it from here

spoileractually expressing happiness? probably not. will i willfully misinterpret this as a smile because snake cute? yes. yes i will

 

Pleasant narration in my opinion, but can just be watched as cute bunny footage without audio.

Probably worth mentioning bunnies can sleep with their eyes open.
