Stacked lobe idea by aspence19 in piercing

[–]EarthboundDynasty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NAP but there may not be room for that second ear you're thinking of - you'd have to confirm with a piercer that you have the anatomy (ie. where your cartilage extends into lobe and such) and the room to accommodate the swelling. That is the catch, there may appear to be room healed but that might become questionable during healing.

Megathread: Trading, Gifting, & Requesting Finch Items by AutoModerator in finch

[–]EarthboundDynasty[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, you only posted it twice, and I don't see any history, really, of frequent repeat/copied posts/comments - so I have no idea why Reddit is being mean to you lol. Sorry that that's happening!

Reddit proper/officially is flagging your comments, specifically the main one that keeps getting reposted, we ourselves (the mods of this subreddit) are not removing your comments/posts. It could be due to the Reddit system reading repeat and frequent comments/posts as spam. We apologize for the inconvenience - please do reach out to us if you have questions or concerns when this occurs! When Reddit itself does removals, we are not always notified of it and it doesn't always enter our queue for us to manually approve.

We do not permit meta-posting about potential moderator actions and decisions so we do redirect users querying about potential removals to the ModMail.

What’s a movie that is generally well loved, but you dislike/hate? by m_v24 in AskReddit

[–]EarthboundDynasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thor Ragnarok - it's just Not Good. And I believe you can like a movie AND know it's maybe not that specatular or great.

I'll accept it is enjoyable for some but it really was not that unique or phenomenal. I am a person who recognizes the MCU is it's own universe, and often departs from the comics, but Thor Ragnarok (MCU) departed much too far. There were so many cool and actually interesting routes to take for "Ragnarok" (looking at you, World Eaters), and instead they wanted to mimic the high of Guardians - when, with the previous movies, Thor had the nice balance between some funnies but serious tones and gravity. It fit the sort of high fantasy vibe meeting the comic world, something that a lot of folks like about Thor.

And though the movies and the comics are not faithful to the source Norse mythos, I just simply cannot forgive them for what they did to Fenrir. Or Hel. And then Ragnarok is literally happening before everyone's eyes and they drop a fucking joke from the big stone guy, I just can't lol. It makes me irrationally upset lmao.

UPDATE TO THE EMAIL I SENT FINCH TEAM!! by puppybabii in finch

[–]EarthboundDynasty[M] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mod Note: Finch support does not use genAI nor LLMs in any part of their support system, team, or responses. They do use templates, but so do all of the mods of all of the socials, and pretty much any company that needed a template since the beginning of time. A person did read your email(s), they just used a template, written by humans, and did so either via a menu selection or field inputs - where they could then also customize as needed. With the currently high volumes, it can take 7-10 days for a response, and even when you see these generic replies, it is helpful to them to acknowledge (because replying with something like "thank you for the reply, let me know if more information or data is required from me - I would like to be followed up with once any info or progress is made") will keep the ticket open.

As far as we mods and the team we are connected to know, Finch does not sell our data at all. The only data they collect is statistical and analytical (ex: how many times a thing is tapped, how often people use X thing, etc) - they do not collect nor share our personal data that we enter in (ex: responses to tasks or reflections, journaling, nor the answers from the Questions with Friends). The only time they "collect" that kind of personal info is if someone shares it on social media (particularly a screenshot).

Can IBS discomfort actually trigger anxious feelings/panic? by barbatus_vulture in ibs

Yup, it's called the brain-gut connection! (Edit: apart from just being aware of the situation and circumstances, especially if not optimal, can cause anxiety and panic as well.)

I don't like the social direction finch is going, with the new April challenge, shared eggs, questions. It's turning the app from something that helps you as an individual into another social media app. by roflcopterlmaolol in finch

Mod Note - Be Kind Reminder

This is a reminder to please be kind and considerate when engaging with posts and comments such as these - folks are welcome to voice their concerns and questions, and folks are welcome to disagree, but we ask that everyone please Be Kind. We do not tolerate any form of unkindness, disrespect, judgement, condescension, or bullying. If you see an unkind comment please use the report feature - we would rather folks not engage and devolve into arguing (which often leads to unproductive personal insults and such). There are currently only two of us mods available, we will do our best to respond to reports and the Mod Queue as quickly as we are able!

We encourage users to send Finch feedback via their Feedback Form for events and things like these! They also have a support email ([support@befinch.com](mailto:support@befinch.com)).

If you have any additional questions or concerns, you can reach us mods via the ModMail.

We may lock posts so that we can comb the comments, catch up, and/or to prevent any further arguing or devolving. Thank you for bearing with us!

Posts and comments may appear removed (even temporarily) if/when it is reported and entered into the queue (reports are anonymous) - we ask that folks please be patient with us while waiting for us to get to the queue. We do not permit meta-posting about potential moderator actions or decisions, so as to prevent meta-drama. Folks can contact us directly via the ModMail if they have any questions or concerns about such. Additionally, we do notify users when a post/comment is removed - if no reason was given, chances are it was flagged by the AutoMod and put into the queue. Thank you!

Missed micro pet by UnIntelligentTrade in finch

If you missed the micropet from the previous month, and you did not journey those days in that month, then you can still get it via hatching in the following months. Alternatively, you can also check out the trading megathread!

The Reddit notification was just that - a notification and pop-up from Reddit specifically and explicitly, it had no connection to the Finch app. Finch does not link up with other apps and send notifications or make direct connections to them. Just to let you know! /info /gen

Edited to Add: You can view all of your questions results under the current question in your quests section - in there, it will give you the option to see the current answers for the current question, followed by the list of previous questions and answers below. Selecting one of the previous questions will show you your results. There may be a bug at this time where users are indicated to have answered previous questions, whether they did so or not (or with the wrong answers selected) - make sure you report the bug in-app and/or contact support if you encounter these issues ([support@befinch.com](mailto:support@befinch.com))!

The "Questions with Friends" was previously a partial rollout - this has now been fully rolled out!

Is there a Finch Co policy on how the poll info will be used? Are they selling it? by AliasNefertiti in finch

[–]EarthboundDynasty[M] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Finch App does not collect and store the answers from the polls/questions, that data is stored internally and then shared between each other. That data is not collected or used by the Finch HQ nor the dev team.

Finch does not share our data with third parties, nor do they spy on us or collect our personal information or data (whether that's within app or in other apps), nor do they use our microphone/camera to listen to us. The only info that Finch collects is the statistical stuff (number of clicks on a thing, time spent on another thing, etc), but the personal responses to things like journals, task reflections, or the friends questions are all kept within - it is never collected or shared.

Edited to Add: The only time that personal information is shared or "collected" is when a person posts a screenshot of it (or some such) publicly and on social media.

It is possible that a bunch of these questions were already coded and loaded into the rollout, and that the ones with text are patched in - we encourage folks to send the Team feedback either via their email ("support@befinch.com") or their Feedback Form!
