  • I think that if there is no one from your instance (which also happens to be my instance) is subscribed to a community on an instance other than your own then you have to search for it in the search bar (using the url or !community@lemmyinstance) before you will be able to interact with it. Lemmy doesn’t synchronize everything between all instances by default, only what is needed to save on resources.






  • Decided to re-watch the hobbit trilogy to see if they were as bad as I remember them being. Whilst there were some scenes I thought were well done (Bilbo’s conversation with smaug for example) the films just aren’t good in the way the Lord of the Rings movies are. The LOTR movies feel properly epic and the hobbit movies just feel so “Hollywood” for lack of a better term. All the fight scenes are stupid with excessive cgi but the worst part I feel is the acrobatics of them all with characters leaping off scenery and twirling around whilst slicing up enemies. None of the battles feel “real” or realistic in the way they do in LOTR. The dialogue in the hobbit movies also suffers from what feels like Joss Whedon-esque script writing with tons of witty quips and “humorous” observations on the situation.
