Me and RWBY:

No state that includes Quebec can be considered great.

Also why is Utah highlighted.

According to this it's just a coincidence.

This assumes platforms win based on technical details, which they don't. Mastodon will probably 'win' (whatever that means) because of network effects and general culture.

Nostr has an optional built-in tipping functionality where you can leave tips for users whose content you like. You can tip a fraction of a penny or $100. And users can tip you. This has a few effects. For one, it incentivizes people to use nostr. Non-profit orgs, for example, can use it to fundraise.

But user have to be technically minded enough, and willing, to set up a crypto wallet to do this.

In mastodon, admins can read your DMs. If you DM somebody on another instance, that’s two instances that can read your DMs, and so can anybody who breaks into their server. In nostr, all DMs are encrypted by default and can only be read by the intended recipient.

E2E encryption is possible with AP. Besides, if what you're talking about needs to be unreadable to third parties, you should probably use something like Matrix or Signal, especially considering how bad Mastodon's DMs actually are.

The person who runs it doesn't recommend Lemmy because of the political opinions of its main developers.

Kinda funny now given that Eugene of Mastodon has signed an NDA with Facebook.

Isn't Thunderbird completely self-managed? I don't think they have anything to do with MozCorp.

Fanfics are 100% copyright infringement, there's no fair use/dealings defence of them. There's just little point for corporations to go out and enforce their copyright, fanfic authors likely don't have much money and it'd be a PR nightmare. Obviously this equation changes when people start to profit of fan work, it's why AO3 doesn't allow direct links to donation pages.

Imagining a version of Breaking Bad where Gus spends most of it crying about young men and the chaos dragon.

Honestly would be a good bit for an abridged series.

Writing shit on public toilets is one of humanity's great pastimes.

The idea we don't hate on Musk is genuinely insane. His hate subreddit even got brought over (!enoughmuskspam@lemmy.world).

You could've chosen literally any other billionaire and you would've had a point.

True. That would be true of any platform which allows tips, you’d have to connect to some source of money whether it be paypal or crypto. Paypal’s fees would be prohibitively expensive but it would be theoretically doable. Either way, it’s a <5 minute setup process if they care to do it.

But people already have Paypal and understand how to use it. Most people don't understand cryptocurrency, and don't want anything to do with it because of its association with scams.

Interesting I didn’t know AP supported E2E. I guess it’s Mastodon that doesn’t support that element of the AP protocol then?

Here's the issue.

Also, I looked in to Nostr a bit for this and do you seriously think profile links like this will catch on with people?

Say what you want about AP, but usernames like <(at) makeasnek (at) lemmy.ml> are at least memorable. How am I suppose to tell someone IRL about my Nostr profile, say of a 64 bit string out loud?

Everything is biased. Even saying something as simple as "grass is green" is biased, it has the bias of normal colour perception. I'm colour blind and don't see grass as green.

There is an API end point to get upvoted posts. I don't know about third party clients, but you can get it with curl:

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H 'Authorization: Bearer ' \ 
  -X GET 'https://ukfli.uk/api/v3/post/list?type_=All&sort=New&liked_only=true' | jq

Maybe instead of banning mouldy memes, there could be restrictions for when they can be posted. Mouldy Monday or something.

No, they're asking about getting stuff posted on Mastodon to appear on their Lemmy feed. You've got the platforms the wrong way round.

Lily from Zombieland, maybe?

How will Sonic fans react to the uptick in writing quality?

Maybe they can implement Lemmy's API, like what Misskey et al. does with Mastodon's API, so it can use the same apps.

What kind of monster writes lisp with the closing bracket on its own line.

Damn, someone really didn't like the new episode of Camp Camp.

Also, please, RWBY my beloved be OK

Mastodon doesn't move posts.

You can't, unless the Mastodon user tags a community you're subscribe to.

To be fair, an ASML engineer explaining some advanced piece of tech would be great ASMR.

Provide the ability for users to migrate their account and all associated data (posts, comments, moderation actions, saved posts, etc.) from one Lemmy instance to another.

To implement this feature you'd either have to:

• Edit the DB entries of every instance to match the new profile;
• Create copies of the old content on the new instance and federate that out, thus duplicating all the data. You could have it delete the old content, but you'd still need to recreate all the posts and comments.

Either of these would be very susceptible to abuse. Giving bad actors a button to force instances to run hundreds, potentially thousands, of operations probably isn't the best of ideas.

Holy shit, it's D-Man!

I use Tilix, mostly because I'm used to it. I should probably upgrade to the plethora of new GTK4 terminal emulators, but I just can't be bothered. Plus none of them support tiling.

I not sure if these count as explicitly antifascist, but I really like Kingmaker by Great American Ghost and Saurian King by Shadow of Intent. Kingmaker's about QAnon and Saurian King is about the rise of the Nazis.

It's hard to give a direct source because he's deleted quite a bit but this thread has a screenshot.

Ah my bad, I remember one of the Miskey forks saying it had Masto API and just assumed it was a Miskey thing.

NCD leans neocon if anything.

It would be weird if the OTW just outright stated that fanfiction was copyright infringement, starting off from the position of "yeah, it breaks the law" would be a bad form of advocatory. The case they link on that FAQ is about a parody of (at the time) 20 year old song, which is materially very different from how fanfiction works. I do think if it ever did go to court that a non-commercial exception would likely be carved out, but as it currently stands I don't think there's any precedent in either my own country or America that can be used to argue that fanfiction meets the criteria for fair use/dealings. Then again, I'm not a lawyer so my opinion probably isn't worth much.

(sidenote: it's mad that American copyright law doesn't have an explicit exception for parody)
