Hobbit Art
I love everything about the Middle Earth legendarium. The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings have resulted in countless pieces of art for us all to enjoy. Please join me and the rest of the hobbits in celebrating the artwork of the best works of fiction ever created!

Well, I just made hobbit.world and intend to only have Tolkien related communities there. So block away if that's not your thing. However, the only way to block an instance is to defederate and that's kind of harsh. Hopefully the feature of blocking communities by instance is added.
This sort of stuff is crucial and needs to be built in.
Most instances are one user's whim away from going away. This isn't a problem as long as clients back things up and migration is easy. But, that doesn't happen right now.
Guarantee we'll see some big news at points in the future when a big instance goes down because the owner died or just lost interest.
Again, these are easily overcome, but they are issues right now.
Actually, clicking those links actually works! Hooray!
I was under the impression that you were supposed to be able to search for "!hobbit_art@hobbit.world" in the community search bar and find things there. Now that I know it works, I've found that simply modifying the community url also works. So going to: https://lemmy.world/c/hobbit_art@hobbit.world actually jumps me right to it.
So, looks like it was already working. Thanks!
Agree about the comparison with music. I wonder why we didn't see balkanization there like we do for video.
Awesome! I was hoping this would be possible. I plan to host my own instance hobbit.world and would need to migrate everything.
Also, I'll defederate any corporate instances. No need to encourage bad actors.
Cable cost well over $100 a month many years ago when I cancelled it. And 1/3 of the content is commercials.
Pretty sure you could subscribe to every major streaming service for less than that. And as long as you avoid Hulu, you won't see commercials.
Things are WAY better now, even though it was better a little while ago when there was just Netflix.
Can you repair Curtas? I think there's a niche market demand for that. I'd certainly want it if mine ever broke.
The Connect app allows you to hide posts based on keywords. Maybe add "reddit" to that?
Walkabout Golf in VR. Simple enough for family members, but challenging even for gamers.
No different than email. That's why domains should be displayed in clients for users.
Is there a stallmanwasright community here yet? This would fit in there.
The real reason was that Gollum couldn't fly. If they flew there, Frodo would have claimed the ring and that would be that.
The explanation for why Gandalf chose not to fly is up for question, but ultimately irrelevant.
