Thank you. I think preachy minimalism is the #1 reason i could have, and all of us could have be put off the idea. It doesn't have to be a religion. Just a set of preferences to focus on simpler things. That's all it has to be.
YES! exactly. But that's also half my point: Lidl, C&A, H&M, Decathlon, waikiki, underarmour, sinsay, salomon... thats already a lot of places we need to either digitally or physically go to browse through.
If you think about it, most minimalists either
-
hate shopping and would love a one stop shop for their needs. currently you end up visiting more places because you know exactly what simple things you want, than some shopaholic who will just buy whatever is at hand wherever they randomly find themselves shopping and wear it for a while. (here the minimalist hates the way he has to spend his time)
-
are addicted to shopping and is their main struggle trying to become minimalistic - and browsing 10 shops instead of 3 like they used to - which will only make it harder for them to step away. (here the striving minimalist will hate the way they feel because they're basically investing even more time in shopping than they used to)
i found black shirts are actually harder to maintain than white ones. a good spot remover can easily save a white one, whereas a black one needs careful washing on 30 degrees, no heat drying to not lose color, no sun drying to not bleach etc. Besides if you pair black pants with black shirts, one will be darker than the other, and look washed out and old in comparison. whereas, if you have a white shirt and black jeans that might or might not be a bit discolored, the contrast will make them look a lot darker and therefore newer.
i like decathlon too tbh. my only gripe is sometimes its a bit too primary colors for my taste. i like muted colors.
btw h&m has very good unbranded undies that last the most if you take care of them well (out of what i had so far)
on waikiki and pepco, i have encountered quite a few quality issues a few years back and stopped trying. might give them another shot - but see, we're already discussing 6 stores, each with SOME simple stuff, and i dont like to keep seeking out those few items that are simple and good.
(also Lidl but you gotta always keep an eye out there)
Hello! I have an issue:
TLDR: I live in E Europe and would just like a site or app where I can shop for good quality, consistent, reliable, brandless, fashionless, timeless, standard, printless, good material, fairly priced clothes.
**** I usually like to buy bulk (2 long house jogger pants, 5 t-shirts of the same brand and form, just different basic colours, 2 black jeans, 7 pairs of socks of the same kind, 7 pairs of undies for example) and get it over with.
The closest i have found are C&A and H&M so far. I'd like even more simplicity and a bit better build quality.
"Fashion" conglomerate apps both second hand and new, contain the opposite of what i want in clothes: overpriced, varying quality, brand heavy, print/logo heavy, exotic cuts, weird colors, dated, impractical clothes.
I dont like needing to visit many generic online shops and flip the coin on build quality, and i dont like going to many online stores and finding the simple, honest clothing i like scattered one-three items on each brand.
I specifically want to avoid popular labels because that costs extra and the price is high for the label, not for the actual item of clothing.
Is there one app to unify this for me, or is there a company that just has fair prices and no fuss? And by no fuss, I also mean, i don't want some brand that sells me a white plain t-shirt for 100$ and makes this precious pageantry out of minimalism.
Sorry if i come off as bitter, but it's really difficult for me to just find simple stuff, and i am already fed up with it being such a chore after half a life. Simply because i have such simple requirements, its very difficult to find what i want.
Thank you in advance.
It's great, I bought ad free just for your efforts. But 2 problems so far:
-
error on uploading any image of any dimensions in any sublemmy.
-
can't see the videos, not in preview Mode, nor in full-screen Mode.
What can i/we do?
I just installed boost and paid for it without hesitation because even if the app still sucks or not, I greatly appreciate the effort and loved the reddit one too.
However, I get this error when uploading an image based meme: "error uploading image". What to do?

They were dirty so I left them at home because I was in a hurry.
It either grows and becomes that as well among other things or it dies because 10k users are too few I'd guess.
It's a matter of time until enough people like you gather and make something more along the lines of what you're picturing. And I'll subscribe to that sublemmy too and just lurk. More jokes for me, I don't care who made them or what the format is as long as they're fun.
But I think this sublemmy has become our HQ and it will contain a lot of stuff of all makes, sites and qualities.
Yeah, I don't think anyone is funny enough (or free enough in their lives) to produce enough original memes to keep us all engaged for long. For what it's worth, I'll stop sharing off site non original memes (which I select for liking) when there's enough people to populate and have the capability to produce enough original and quality memes. Maybe 50k or 100k. For now we're eating McDonald's because nobody here can cook enough for everyone.
As long as people like stuff posted from other places even if it's not pure meme form, I think it's good enough for now.
If you tried to make an only pure and original memes on here for now, and would police it as such, I bet you'd get less than 5/day which would render it virtually dead.
In time, there will be better and/original memes but the newcomers have to have something to sink their teeth into.
Stuff like this happens:
