I remember using an app that blocked spam calls using a collaborative database. The one I use now is Truecaller, but it's always trying to get me to subscribe. I liked the one I used before better. What is the best caller ID app that can block spam that you know about?

Hey fellow Lemmings,

I've been thinking about how we measure the liveliness of our communities, and I believe we're missing the mark with Monthly Active Users (MAU). Here's why I think Posts + Comments per Month (PCM) would be a superior metric:

Why PCM is Better Than MAU

1. Quality over Quantity: MAU counts lurkers equally with active participants. PCM focuses on actual engagement.

2. Spam Resistance: Creating multiple accounts to inflate MAU is easy. Generating meaningful posts and comments is harder.

3. True Reflection of Activity: A community with 1000 MAU but only 10 posts/comments is less vibrant than one with 100 MAU and 500 posts/comments.

4. Encourages Participation: Displaying PCM could motivate users to contribute more actively.

5. Easier to Track: No need for complex user tracking. Just count posts and comments.

Implementation Ideas

• Show PCM in the community list alongside subscriber count
• Display PCM in each community's sidebar
• Use PCM for sorting "hot" communities

What do you think? Should we petition the Lemmy devs to consider implementing this? Let's discuss!

Yeah because first of all, content had to be spread out across 562826 different communities for no reason other than that reddit had lots of communities, after growing for many many years. It started with just a few.

Then 99% of those were created on Lemmy.world, and every new user was directed to sign up at Lemmy.world.

I guess a lot of people here are younger than me and didn’t experience forums, but we had like 30 forum channels. That was enough to talk about anything at all. And I believe it’s the same here, it would have been enough. And then all channels would have easy to find content.

Hey everyone! I'm curious about the number of communities on Lemmy and the activity levels within them. Specifically, is there a reliable source where I can check the total number of communities and the average number of posts per month? It seems like the number of communities might be quite high, but I wonder how low the post activity is across most of them. Any insights or links to resources would be greatly appreciated!

I often find myself browsing videos on different invidious instances or posts on various lemmy instances, and I would love to be able to create a "watch later" list or a "favorite" list that works across all of them. I don't want to have to manually import and export these lists between different instances, either, like I have to do on lemmy, invidious, etc.

I'm currently using a single bookmarks folder to keep track of everything, but I don't like this because it's a mess. I'd like to be able to create two or three different lists for different groups of websites, so that I can easily find what I'm looking for. For example, a favorite list for reddit, tumblr, etc, another favorite list and a watch for later list for invidious instances, and other lists for other sites.

Is there any way to achieve this? I'm open to using browser extensions, third-party apps, or any other solutions that might be out there. I would prefer a free solution, but I'm willing to consider paid options as well.

A bookmark can only exist in one folder at a time, whereas I want to be able to add a single item to multiple lists (e.g., both "favorites" and "watch later").

I believe the closest to what I'm looking for are Raindrop.io, Pocket, Wallabag, Hoarder, etc.

Hey Linux community,

I'm struggling with a file management issue and hoping you can help. I have a large media collection spread across multiple external hard drives. Often, when I'm looking for a specific file, I can't remember which drive it's on.

I'm looking for a file indexing and search tool that meets the following requirements:

• Ability to scan multiple locations
• Option to exclude specific folders or subfolders from both scan and search
• File indexing for quicker searches
• Capability to search indexed files even when the original drive is disconnected
• Real-time updates as files change

Any recommendations for tools that meet most or all of these criteria? It would be a huge help in organizing and finding my media files.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
