Hi! I’m British, I like music (grime, garage, hip-hop, R&B, and more!). I like art, culture, history, politics, & doomscrolling memes.

Also a touch of programming :)

It’s better if you untick “show read posts” in your lemmy settings.


I made a list of casual communities on Lemmy awhile ago https://lemmy.world/post/2216085 just subscribe to stuff you like and curate your own feed. Block the politics subs. Boom.


Lobsters has blocked the Brave browser since a scam in 2019. We still block it because they lie about following standards so they scrape and sell copies of websites. I’m sorry for the inconvenience, but they have previously targeted Lobsters by name and have a years-long pattern of bad behavior.

Well, that’s a new one. What you see if you visit it via Brave Browser.


Don’t let imperfection get in the way of progress. If you move slightly towards the left, you’re opening doors for more left ideology.


Without electoral reform, there’s no functional reason to. The lesser evil of the current system is Democrats. If you want to enact change, push support for the progressive wing of the party and push for electoral reform.


Change sorting to “Top 6hr”. I browse by Hot sometimes but that’s my primary sort atm


You’d be better off posting this on a Malaysian community, like !cafe@monyet.cc


They made a announcement here on Lemmy https://lemmy.world/post/3234363

The original was posted on discord. It was:

Removal of Piracy Communities

Earlier today, after review, we blocked and removed several communities that were providing assistance to access copyrighted/pirated material, which is currently not allowed per Rule #1 of our Code of Conduct.

The communities that were removed due to this decision were: !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com, !piracy@lemmy.ml, !steamdeckpirates@lemmy.dbzer0.com.

We took this action to protect lemmy.world, lemmy.world’s users, and lemmy.world staff as the material posted in those communities could be problematic for us, because of potential legal issues around copyrighted material and services that provide access to or assitance in obtaining it.



lemmy.world hasn’t defedered from lemmy.dbzer0.com entirely, they’ve just blocked the piracy community.



Yeah it’s weird I know but I’ve wrapped around to liking it lol


I mostly listen to varieties of British music (shoutout !britishmusic@lemmy.world)

I love R&B. I’ve been exploring British country music lately (surprisingly is a lot of it).

Massive fan of grime music (!grime@lemmy.world) (similarish to hip hop but with electronic beats) and its predecessor, UK garage (summery dance music vibes). UK rap in general is a big thing for me. I listen to drill music on occasion but not super often (modern gangster rap basically, although there’s a lot of commercial drill nowadays). Been really into jersey club music lately - I think the beats are really cool.

I have some fondness for dancehall (!dancehall@lemmy.world) and afrobeats music as well.

Other than that, I enjoy (but don’t listen to actively) baile funk, some varieties of house music, deep/original dubstep music (not the screechy dubstep most people think of), reggae, lofi-hiphop, the underground NY hip hop scene
