Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️

An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­

Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Today’s Ask PHlemmy: What’s the most overrated tourist destination?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Not exactly "tourist" in the strictest sense but I still hear people treating Gilmore as the go-to place for PCs when that hasn't been the case since 2005, and even moreso with the advent of online shopping and mom-and-pop stores.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Boracay

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I would say Baguio but that's mainly because I'm not a tourist here.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Same sentiments, but then again we are residents. The weather is nice, other than that, there's really not much.

Troooo? Jan pa naman gusto pumunta ng parentals para magbakasyon

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

you will enjoy it if you come during non holiday weekdays

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Baguio. Man, that city was crowded as fuck, terrible traffic situations. My first and (maybe) last visit was with my family back in 2012.

Good morning ✨ kumusta kayooooo

When my smallest of dreams won't come true...

Gusto ko lang naman tumira sa maaliwalas na bahay πŸ™ƒ

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I had a nightmare of being stuck in a toxic relationship. Ending: naki-pag bargain pa ako sa kanya para makuha niya na lahat ng gusto niya sakin, so I can finally be free and off myself kasi wala na nga siyang makukuha and there's no advantage of keeping me around. Naka-smile pa ako nun, and then I woke up. Mabigat sa pakiramdam 10/10.

I think if I were to categorise my bad dreams na naalala ko it would either be someone dying or me being in a toxic relationship and trying to get out of it so badly. Other kinds of fears, I can usually overcome them in dreamland pero yung dalawang yan it does reoccur.

Makes me feel anxious. Wooh! Gusto ko na lang mag therapy. Lol.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

yung nightmares ko naman ay habulan scenes. either ako yung hinahabol o ako yung naghahabol. kapag ako yung hinahabol, kadalasan hindi ko kilala yung pursuer. minsan humans, minsan monsters.
pero kung ako yung naghahabol, kadalasan, mga taong kakilala ko, yung mga taong gusto kong kasama. at bihira ko sila maabutan.
for both scenarios, i usually wake up tired, as if i did run for miles in real life.

Can you feel me inside your heart

As it's bleeding

Why can't you believe you

Can be loved

I forgot na ngayon pala magiging effective yung price increase sa LRT.

Edit: LRT 1 and 2 lang pala ang nagtaas, hindi MRT 3, though they're considering it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Test post using Sync for Lemmy.

Edit on desktop: Post went through but I can't view the comments as I keep getting 403.

Naka-maintenance mode LW dahil sa DDoS attacks ulit. You can see and open threads but no commenrs.

Sinabi sakin mabait raw ako kasi wala akong kaaway / nababangga sa work. Idk if I'd call that mabait tho. I just mind my own business, try to do a decent to good job and don't take anything personally.

What I do take personally ay si ateng sisingit na nga sa harap ko sa pila siniko pa ako. So siniko ko siya palikod. You don't do contact sports with me like that, pumapalag ako 😀 chz. Yung totoo, kung peaceful yung pagsingit niya I would have just shrugged it off, dadating naman din yung turn ko eh. Mabilis lang naman yung pila, what's one person more.

I guess ang ayaw ko lang ay to be seen as a pushover. Hmph.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lemmy I’m sorry I have failed you. Yesterday I opened Reddit because of more content.

Fuck spez…

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's alright. I open Reddit every so often, but I stopped posting altogether. They don't need any more content.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Huh. Just received a Flash SMS message from Smart that sort of looks like an ad. I remember it says for more info, visit their website or something.

I thought that this message should only be used for emergencies.

May bago na naman nauuso na double feature:

SAW PATROL!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sync is officially available! Browsing through the app via lemm.ee right now. Need ko pa timplahin best settings but so far so good. Mukhang may mod tools din.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's so goood!!!!

mod tools

I can't find it. Enabled naman sa settings, but no mod tools button on posts

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm trying to slowly de-google, but not in an unrealistic way. I'm still using an Android phone and I'm subscribed to YT Premium for my family, but I'm migrating critical things such as email and accounts I've registered using that email.

I can't believe the amount of accounts I've accumulated over time. It's such a pain to move, especially when the site or app doesn't have a self-service feature for changing emails.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I maintain a domain for my personal usage. With domain, I can easily jump from one email service to another. Currently, naka-MS Outlook ako, because... lulz.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Yeah, I considered doing that before deciding to just use email aliases. Pretty satisfied with my decision so far but in case I reconsider, which domain registrar would you recommend?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have my domain at Namecheap. They have free email forwarding up to 100 aliases.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

+1 for Namecheap. Been using them for more than a decade now. Reliable and (as their name says) cheap.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm slowly weaning myself off Chrome with their current push for what's essentially DRM for websites. It really feels like the season for reconsidering how we interact online.
