I’m letting them all bloom. There are even more now and there are still new ones popping out. My floor is covered in pollens. I don’t know if they do a deathbloom but I’m starting to fear this might be it since the flowers keep coming and no new leaves.

Yeah they get really big but I’ve got the room. I would’ve added more photos but it seems that at the moment you can only add 1 to a post.

I recently repotted the beast and am now propagating the corms I found. 1 of the 2 zebrinas in the pot has some mild variegation and I’m hoping that one of the new pups will have a more stable variegation.

 

My huge zebrina is popping out lots of flowers

That’s pretty damn close if you ask me. I would be happy with that.

If she has any smarts she would’ve talked in a lower or higher voice to avoid any chance of recognition. Although those sunglasses are a dead give away.

I’m missing a houseplants community and a jig saw puzzle community

Although lots of tapwater around the world is safe it might still be a good idea to boil the water or buy bottled water when your on holiday in another country. There are different bacteria in different water and if you’re not used to those bacteria you could end up with diarrhoea during your stay.

I’m from Belgium myself and when I go to Spain I never drink from the tap, bc I found out the hard way once. But water in France and the Netherlands are safe for me.

Wait you can hide read posts? How do you do that on the website?

The account name is just bot or lemmybot and I saw lots of the posts you describe in explainlikeim5 for example, but I don’t remember from which instance this community was. Not the one on Lemmy.world. But there were more communities with lots of bot posts like that.

And I do put my app when I open it on all. So I can see the other instances and find new communities I want to join. I also put my weblink on all. So that can’t be making te difference in why I don’t see any bots on the weblink and almost only botposts on my Mlem app.

So I can just block it? It’s not like real people also post in that community that could be of interest? It’s just a bot community? And how do I block it? (Haven’t tried it or looked for it myself)

You’re probably right that the problem will get worse. So maybe we need to decide as a community if we want to let things like this happen.

Thanks for explaining, I agree. Just copying Reddit isn’t going to enrich the fediverse. On the contrary. We need to make our own posts, our own discussions, useful information and our own databases.

Bot infestation? (self.nostupidquestions)
 

So I was on the Mlem app and I see post after post made by bot. I’m assuming this really is a bot? Some new communities only seem to have posts made by bots, and in the text it says that they copied a post from Reddit. What’s going on? I don’t see the same thing when I’m on Lemmy through the weblink. Is there something I should do with those posts? Ignore them? Is there something wrong with the Mlem app?
