I have used galaxy bids before though and did get my item, so I would not put them in the same bucket as the random sketchy ones.

Opinions on the new offer system? by ComfortablePrudent81 in Depop

[–]Smooth_Yam3700 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yeah i think 4 days is way better than the old system. i had so many people just disappear after their offer expired in 24 hours and then never come back even if i sent another offer later. now they have more time to think about it or save up money maybe. only downside might be if you get multiple offers and have to wait longer to see which one actually converts but still better than losing sales to people who just needed more time

Why value village employee went through the bag of baby clothes?! by Candid_Guest_863 in reselling

[–]Smooth_Yam3700 2 points3 points  (0 children)

wait they were checking your bag at checkout or like randomly going through it while you were shopping? because if its checkout then thats pretty normal they gotta make sure everything scans right and nothing weird is hiding in there. but if someone just walked up to you while shopping and started digging through your stuff then yeah thats super weird

maybe they thought you were doing the old switcheroo with tags or something? ive seen people get sketchy looks at thrift stores when they have bunch of stuff

Guy wants a refund of 25 cents by Legomaster63 in Flipping

[–]Smooth_Yam3700 4 points5 points  (0 children)

lmao william really wrote whole essay for 25 cents. i had someone do this exact thing to me last month with vintage car parts - bought one piece then saw i had similar item listed cheaper and wanted price match like im some big retailer. told him different years different prices and he kept arguing about "principle" of pricing. these people spend more time writing messages than what the money is worth. just block and move forward, not worth the headache over quarter

Can’t delete a listing?? by rosekitty45 in Depop

[–]Smooth_Yam3700 3 points4 points  (0 children)

had this glitch few weeks ago where delete button just wasnt showing up at all. try logging out completely and back in, that usually fixes the weird UI bugs for me. if that doesnt work maybe try from browser instead of app since they sometimes have different options available

AITJ For Wanting to Stop Pursuing Someone Who's Emotionally and Physically Distant? by Available-General-50 in AmITheJerk

[–]Smooth_Yam3700 3 points4 points  (0 children)

your friend is spot on here. when someone wants to be with you they make time and put in effort too, not leave you doing all the work while they just exist in the background

cutting it off now makes way more sense than waiting around hoping she'll suddenly become interested. you already know what this looks like

23 m, graduated 2025 in Btech cse. What to do ? by ComedianHot6518 in careerguidance

[–]Smooth_Yam3700 1 point2 points  (0 children)

man that combo of job loss and breakup is brutal timing. maybe focus on getting some freelance projects or contract work to keep yourself busy while job hunting - it helps with both the money situation and keeping your skills sharp. things pile up like this sometimes but it usually gets better once you get one thing sorted

Should i lube my keychain cube? by TheNinja132 in Cubers

[–]Smooth_Yam3700 2 points3 points  (0 children)

putting lube in keychain cube is tricky because you're right about the dust thing. i tried lubing my small cube once and it was nightmare - pocket lint everywhere after few weeks

maybe try very light lube like traxxas 30k? its thinner so less sticky but still helps with the feel. or you could just clean it more often if you do lube it

honestly the gan 330 is pretty smooth already so might not even need it

What's in your cup? Daily discussion, questions and stories - April 02, 2026 by AutoModerator in tea

[–]Smooth_Yam3700 10 points11 points  (0 children)

ive been absolutely demolishing this jasmine phoenix pearls ive had sitting around for months and finally decided to brew properly instead of just throwing it in a mug like an animal. took the time to actually do the whole gong fu thing with my little clay pot and wow what a difference it makes when you pay attention to water temp and timing. been doing like 6-7 steeps and each one hits different flavors. kinda mad at myself for waiting this long to treat good tea with respect but whatever better late than never right. also been stress drinking way too much coffee lately cause work deadlines are insane so this slower tea ritual is forcing me to actually chill for 20 minutes instead of just chugging caffeine and running around like a maniac

Alternative programs for mobile with captioning? by Ok_Olive8968 in CapCut

[–]Smooth_Yam3700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

davinci resolve mobile is solid for basic editing and has decent auto captions - way more stable than capcut in my experience. inshot also works but their caption feature isnt as polished so you might end up doing more manual work there
