  • Would kiosk mode be any good for her use case? Add the photos etc. as a different user and give Grandma read only access, and automatically reset her home directory on boot / login.

    Use an immutable distro to lessen the chance of her deleting something important, and you should be set. Maybe set up Firefox with sync so that she can add bookmarks, and have that log in automatically.





  • Apart from the two posts asking why your posts have been downvoted, you’ve got seven posts, and six of those are the same photo. That comes across as spamming to a lot of people, especially if you post them at roughly the same time. They’re possibly appearing on people’s feeds one after the other.

    It hasn’t happened much on Lemmy yet as far as I’ve seen, but Reddit was full of posts that were deliberately spammy, where girls would post the same photo to loads of subreddits, and have a link to paid content either in the post or their bio. As you can probably imagine, people get used to downvoting those posts almost reflexively.

    You might want to consider either publishing less posts in one go, taking multiple photos and changing them up over your posts, or looking at cross posting. You still post to lots of communities, but it doesn’t come across as spammy.

    Good luck, and welcome to Lemmy 🙂
