If LED bulbs are supposed to last for 10 years, why do I still need to replace them every 9 months? in c/[email protected]

Don't recall the brand. Threw the remaining ones out.

shitty bulbs.

+1 on that as a potential issue. Don't recall the brand, but I had bought a pack of light bulbs where the whole pack was having issues, to the point I called an electrician to check. When the electrician came and saw the brand he told me "those are garbage" and that he had seen plenty of people having issues with that brand.

I threw those away, bought some other brand. The exact same places where I was having to replace light bulbs often no longer had any issues.

What content do you miss on Lemmy? in c/[email protected]

I think in general we just need more people.. There are communities that exist in Lemmy which are basically empty / inactive that used to be active in Reddit (i.e. Datatabases, Postgresql, FreeBSD subreddits). Perhaps as more people discover Lemmy those smaller / niche communities will see more traffic.
