You can create multiple accounts, but shouldn't have to as long as the two instances aren't bad actors. I think this stance is short sighted and lazy from beehaw.org admins. I expect those communities there to migrate to another instance as the dominant community for the topic.
That's their prerogative, but it just means I won't be interacting with communities on beehaw. What's to say they won't defederate from the instance I choose for my 2nd or 3rd account in the future?
Open, so that the air that gets pumped into my room can tell the Mr. Thermostat in the hall that it's actually fine in there and they don't need to call Mr. Furnace or Mrs. A/C.
Smart. Flush money down the toilet trying to impersonate Trump by not paying your bills. Maybe he should run for president.
Google Chat replaced hangouts and is not E2E.
Google Messages is the Android default SMS App, at least on Pixel phones. It is Android's best equivalent to "iMessage"
This is being worked on on the Jerboa github. Sounds like it'll be addressed or at least mostly addressed in the next release.
I dunno. Lemmy isn't all that weird outside the first little bit of choosing an instance and signing up for communities. Everything since that has felt extremely normal to me. Some more thought about that and a good instance onboarding workflow can be implemented, that seems like a solvable problem.
Not while browsing on "All", but this is easily remedied by maintaining a subscription list and browsing on "Subscribed". Typically, porn is limited to specific communities which can just be not added to your subscription list.
Just imagine what could have been done in the last 300 years if every dollar that was donated to churches went to some other cause, or back into the pockets of the masses. There is an immense amount of wealth that is trapped in the collective real estate, bank accounts, etc owned by churches. I'm not even talking about megachurches or the mormon's giant stack of cash, just mom'n'pop little parishes that are everywhere across the US.
If ALL that money was still kicking around in the economy and in the pockets of people to spend on real things, building real businesses, etc...we'd be way better off.
Always makes me sad when I visit my in-laws who live in a particularly bible thumpy area and you go and there are spots there where churches outnumber normal businesses. It seems like it's just a huge drain on the local economy devoting that much money into propping up churches of various kinds...
Yep. This is a huge burden on the poorest in our society and basically means the poorest will never be able to afford bond and the richest will always be able to afford bond. At both ends of the spectrum, bond is basically meaningless. If someone is sufficiently rich, if they want to run, they will, regardless of if $200k is forfeit. If someone is sufficiently poor, they'll never be able to afford to be out of jail, even if they have no intention on running. I'm not saying that Trump is, in fact, a flight risk, but bond is stupid and if someone should be in jail, then they should be in jail or if they should not be in jail, then they should not be in jail. I know it's an imperfect system living in an imperfect world, but can someone please come up with some sort of technology mechanism so that the current bond system is rendered obsolete, please?
I feel like the answer is making jail/prison less of a fucking tortuous experience (ala the Scandinavian model), but some people seem to think that jail/prison being the worst possible place to be is a feature, not a bug. If jail were less torturous, then it would be conceivable for rich people who deserve jail to have to go there while awaiting trial and the bond system could be done away with...but that would mean making it nicer for everyone, so probably won't happen.
It's smart. Also, developers have a solid benchmark to set their games to. Console has long had the benefit of a stable hardware set over the course of many years, which makes it easier to develop to the broadest possible market. Skipping incremental APU updates has a benefit of keeping a longer benchmark for game developers hoping to boost sales by targeting the market with handhelds. Valve was pretty clear in their communication in this regard, which is great.
You also have to be logged in, in order to automatically use old.reddit.com (without an extension to auto-route links back to it, at least). I know because when I used reddit in...erm, private mode, it would always route me to the new, awful ui which didn't support RES.
It's perfect. It really should just be ONE thing that all the subs do (like john oliver related content). This will be funny to start, get old, and people will still enjoy posting it but it just won't end, they'll stop coming and reddit will die in a pile of John Oliver's sexiness from across all the big subreddits.
I think community portability will need to be built into the platform. Without that, we are one bad server owner from losing entire communities. It will inevitably happen at done point.
Yeah, while it is annoying, I know there is a whole art form to those thumbnail images and there are other people I respect that are worse about them. I think they've talked pretty openly about how those are simply the annoying part of being in the YouTube business and if they didn't, they would just be leaving views on the table.
Yeah, that's good, but in practice it just cuts off several top 10 federated communities on Lemmy from being able to be interacted with until that's addressed. I understand it's temporary and maybe necessary, but if I want to talk tech right now, there's no where I can go without creating a new user elsewhere and that kind of sucks as a new user on a new platform that's trying to put it's best foot forward.
These are all top 10 communities that now are participation gated to a good chunk of Lemmy's users. !Gaming@beehaw.org !Technololgy@beehaw.org !news@beehaw.org !linux@beehaw.org !chat@beehaw.org
Yeah, that was a necessity for browsing in private mode for...reasons.
Fwiw, if you are still going to reddit for those...reasons, bing video search with safe search off is really very good and free of spam pop-ups and has a good integrated video player (at least with a decent ad block turned on).
Math checks out, yep.
Everything is going, realistically. There are a couple that will continue under paid subscriptions, usage tiers, and limited content (no NSFW, for example), but I can't imagine they'll last long.
Here for those who still have accounts to show their solidarity. That is not close!
You just have to go to the instance and look at their "local."
e.g. https://lemmy.ml/
You won't be able to comment or interact unless you come back home to your instance though and look at the post/community from the place your user is.
and lemmy UI issue tracker (for issues that are UI based, not back-end based)
Yeah, it's been acknowledged and solutions have been discussed as future Todos
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/1809#discussion_r889164824
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3504
I imagine it should be prioritized though, along with some of the other malicious upload issue mitigation bugs.
Would you hire a dev with no comprehension of the task, who can not reliably communicate what their code does, can not be tasked with finding and fixing their own bugs, is incapable of having accountibility, can not be reliably coached, is often wrong and refuses to accept or admit it, can not comprehend PR feedback, and who requires significantly greater scrutiny of their work because it is by explicit design created to look correct?
Not me, but my boss would... wait a minute...
Yep! You're right. It doesn't help that people get confused because they get linked to a community on a different instance that references the instance domain (so it takes you to that server, where you are NOT a local user). I think community linking and link handling and also having a way to gently nudge users back onto their home instance while viewing content would be fantastic.
I was thinking this could be done with a "official" lemmy extension for Chrome/Firefox, where you can save your instance host and have it look for links that follow this format.
It would auto-change links from: [https://lemmy.ml/c/asklemmy](https://lemmy.ml/c/asklemmy)
To: [https://{your host}/c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml](https://{your host}/c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml)
Samesies. Very random. Also on hot are things that I would consider new.
Yeah, ideal solution is that the SS detail remains intact and he just goes to jail and the SS just deals with it. I've heard that solitary is a good way to protect inmates when a substantial number of other inmates want to do them harm. Just sayin'
Exactly. We don't really need RES for lemmy because we have lemmy-ui project. It's all out of my wheelhouse, but with community contributions, there's a lot of awesomeness that could be added to it as optional elements.
I know it can be frustrating to hear that as a user
Not at all. I get it completely. I do some programming for my 9-5 and have our releases and stuff scheduled in our Jira, but that's a private dev team, not a open source project like this and it doesn't use github/gitlab for anything.
Expectation management and getting people to understand why we didn't deploy at the specified time is a huge annoyance, lol.
Yeah, Joey was perfect. It felt sad when they sent the little survey to ask if people would pay a subscription to use the app and I was like ... No, but not because of you, because of them.
My understanding is that most scripts like the power delete one that I used use your own token as they are a JavaScript run in your browser. I don't believe that those would be considered API calls, but I could be wrong.
Has there been any posts on this outside of discord? Anything we can do? It's been noticable and I have an alt I can use when lemmy.world is down, but I didn't even realize this was happening.
Same here. If any of my friends correctly identify my username as me, my annual account reset puts them back to square one...not that my accounts were anything but completely tame.
Also nice username!
(ㆆ _ ㆆ) ....yep
In the words of Bingo, "why do you always try to teach us lessons we don't want to learn?!"
Nah, he was just le tired and slept in.
Yet!
At least the structure is there and baked in so it's only a matter of time 😀
Yeah, completely killing Reddit was never in the cards in all honesty. Creating legit competition is good for everyone and this is definitely an awesome place already.
