Maybe they accidentally commented with their porn alt? Seems like the comment was deleted.

And just to add detail, because I found it confusing when I first joined Lemmy: local shows posts from all communities on your instance, and all shows posts from all instances (your instance is federated with).
I tried out different apps because of the autoloading of new posts that happens on the site. I think that might have been fixed in the update, but now I'm having issues logging into lemmy.world on the site, because if the update. I keep reminding myself it's early days and things will get smoother soon.
I hope the Lemmy devs implement instance blocking soon as well, I've been playing whack-a-mole with all the porn communities, but most of them are coming from a single nsfw instance that I wish I could just block outright. I know I can disable nsfw content, but there isn't really a distinction made between porn and other types of nsfw content, so I don't really like disabling it all together.
As far as I can tell, that's exactly what the block function does. I haven't blocked any users, but at least I don't see the blocked communities on Local or All. Maybe you are seeing communities with the same names as the ones you blocked, but from different instances?
Great and thanks for the tip!
Yeah, I was referring to alcohol, but coffee is by far the better choice ;) I got really into cold brew coffee a few years ago, it's really delicious and way better than iced coffee in my opinion. The only downside is you need to plan ahead if want it, and I'm terrible at remembering stuff like that.
I feel this deep in my soul. As an AuDHD'er, I have my main obsession which I can always return to (BBC Sherlock) and a continuous rotation of new, short term hyper-fixations. At the moment this has included: gem faceting (I'm a sucker for geometry and working with my hands), home brewing (never gonna do it, but love to learn about it) and ultra-marathons (in a sense of watching Youtube videos about people that run them, there is no way in hell I am capable of such feats).
I literally just joined about an hour ago, so take my comment with a grain of salt, but maybe you can manually track the communities you sub to on your current instance in case that happens? I did some reading and it seems possible to set up something like an RSS feed for Lemmy communities, so you would still be able to view activity without an account (if you instance goes down), and you have something documenting the communities you are interested in. Sorry if this is not useful, just trying to do my part and be more active here.
I was a leftist teenager in the W Bush years and I was very much pro-Putin/Russia. I even used to watch RT occasionally. It wasn't until around 2012, with the handling of Pussy Riot that I started to look more closely at what modern Russia actually was, and what kind of leader Putin was. I remember laughing at Romney back in 2012 before all of that, when he said that Russia was out biggest threat. Fast forward to 2016 and I realised just how right he was, and I really don't like agreeing with Mitt Romney.
