  • Restaurant grade/sized (big bag) red chili flakes you can get off Amazon - wear full clothing/gloves when spreading around the lawn as it burns on your skin in this quantity. You can use a grass seed spreader (the hand crank green bucket kind) to spread them, or just use your hands. Pay mind to the direction of the wind and face / work downwind so they don’t blow back on yourself while spreading.


  • Discord denied an account to me without providing a phone number. As soon as I created an account (using a valid self-hosted email verification - same used here on lemmy) my account was immediately marked as “suspicious” and required phone verification. I emailed Discord support and talked to a human, “nothing we can do about it”. Discord is a private, for-profit company with their own motives which does not align with the intended spirit of Lemmy - other solutions exist which are open (Mattermost for example, but there are many) - it was the lemmy.world admin who willingly chose to engage with a closed, private platform. There is an incongruity here which cannot be ignored.
