cute animals
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 !bunnies@lemmy.world 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!
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, !snakes@lemmy.world 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 was asking specifically about Communities > Moderator view in the title, not your feed > Moderator view. Viewing Moderator view on my feed shows just things from communities I mod as expected. I’m concerned about Moderator view on the community view, after you click the hamburger menu, hit Communities, and see a list of communities.
All communities I mod, I mod with an account local to that instance, so that isn’t the issue.
Barn owls do have a use, yes, but it is nice to see that people still have room in their hearts for a bird even when things are going poorly.
Checked on 0.19.8 on ani.social with @Elevator7009sAlt@ani.social (mods one community on that instance) and Moderator View did not match with Local. It showed me a bunch of lemmy.world communities, none of which @Elevator7009sAlt@ani.social mods. What version are you checking on?
I wonder where you get all these high quality owl pictures. Yes, you post the source, but that is not what I mean. Do you seek them out specifically to post? Are you already such a huge owl fan that they just naturally show up on your regular internet browsing, and you decide to share some with us?
I’m a mix of both. Sometimes I specifically browse the internet for cute animal content to post on Lemmy, sometimes I just am browsing for cute animal stuff on my own and think “huh wait, Lemmy could use this.”
I was about to say thank you because I have just been finding some random image downsizer online, then I toss it through an EXIF stripper app on my phone and post. But then I checked and found ffshare appears to be just an Android app :( I guess that is what you meant by “Android, at least”. I Lemmy from an iPhone and I’m not about to get an Android emulator on my computer just to use ffshare.
Self-plug: !bunnies@lemmy.world, also active, posts don’t overlap with !bun_alert_system@lemmy.sdf.org
Also !snakes@lemmy.world, though I don’t run that one.
awwwww baby bunnies
I have entered “cute bunnies” as a YouTube search term way too many times. I always appreciate people posting a bunny video I have not seen 382838 times, although that is probably my own fault for clicking the more popular bunny videos every time they come up.
