I created this community as shrinkflation is getting really bad in Canada, especially in grocery stores.

This community is probably going to lean towards being Canada-centric, but shrinkflation posts from all over are welcome!

Shrinkflation is defined as a reduction in size or quality of a product, for a same or higher price for a given quantity.

From Wikipedia:

> In economics, shrinkflation, also known as the grocery shrink ray, deflation, or package downsizing, is the process of items shrinking in size or quantity, or even sometimes reformulating or reducing quality, while their prices remain the same or increase. The word is a portmanteau of the words shrink and inflation. > > [...] > > Shrinkflation allows companies to increase their operating margin and profitability by reducing costs whilst maintaining sales volume, and is often used as an alternative to raising prices in line with inflation. Consumer protection groups are critical of the practice. > > Shrinkflation is a rise in the general price level of goods per unit of weight or volume, brought about by a reduction in the weight or size of the item sold. The price for one piece of the packaged product remains the same or could even be raised. This sometimes does not affect inflation measures such as the consumer price index or Retail Price Index, i.e. it might not increase in the cost of a basket of retail goods and services, but many indicators of price levels and thus inflation are linked to units of volume or weight of products, so that shrinkflation also affects the statistically represented inflation figures.

Was browsing about as one does and found this community with a bunch of links to this type of music I hadn't known about before. Listened to a couple of the songs and I really enjoyed it!

It's [email protected], or alternate links depending on where you're finding this from:

A community for real (not satire) strange news!

Inspired by /r/offbeat because I always enjoyed the odd headline that made me think "huh, that's weird".

I came up with the idea for this community in the shower. What if I want to watch a movie with people from all over the world, and talk about it in a live thread? Live threads for sporting events and TV shows are pretty common, but I don't think I've seen it applied to movies before. The concepts are simple:

1. Create an announcement post 2-12 hours before you want to host a watch party. This gives people time to find a copy of the movie, if they're interested in participating. If you have the means, you can also mention that you'll be streaming the movie on the official Discord server for those that don't have access to the movie.

2. Create the live thread 30-60 minutes before the watch party starts. If you're going to be streaming on Discord, be sure to include the link to the server invite as well for anyone that wants to join in at the last minute.

3. At the designated time, everyone presses play, and discusses the movie in the live thread.

Getting Started Guide

Guys this is amazing

I'm not sure on what the self promotion rules are for this community. If this isn't allowed then feel free to downvote I guess :/

Hello from your southern neighbor. I am a huge fan of Kids In the Hall, Corner Gas, Strange Brew, etc.. While these are older shows and movies I still have a great appreciation for Canadian humor in all entertainment mediums. I am surprised I haven't come across a community for discussing Canadian entertainment or something thereof. As I am not as versed as many on the subject I would be hesitant to create a community myself, but would enjoy having one to participate in and find new shows and whatnot. Just something to think about. Eh?

A new place to share creepy stories!

Infrared photography uses modified cameras, filters, and/or specialized film to capture near infrared light that is outside the visible range. Originally used for scientific, agriculture, and notably for military surveillance, but later was deployed for artistic effect due to its distinctive rendering of foliage and skies.

EDIT Oh no! Last.fm communities already exists over on feddit.de and lemmy.world. Unless you have the instances blocked, you should go play over at either [email protected] or [email protected]

I created the c/whowouldwin community here because I really liked to participate in "the old world".

It's a community to ask questions about fictional scenarios and battles and discuss the question who would win in this situation and why?

It can be about fictional or real world characters.

I apologize if self-promotion isn't allowed here, I didn't see anything about it in the sidebar.

For hilarious misinterpretations of historical photos.
