I have been with this idea for a very long time. But over time all the platforms got more and more greedy and I had the feeling that my privacy got more and more invaded.

Since that time, I have an Adblock and use DDG.

Sorry content creators.

I think if canonicals are applied correctly, it should not be an issue?

I don't know. Lemmy find an answer for you.

So, the auto update is no longer active for the feeds. That is a good thing! However, I think Lemmy now needs a refresh button.

When I move away from my defaults (eg to check "new"), it isn't easy to update the new feed (when I refresh I need to reselect new)

If so, the css must be federated as well, no? Might be difficult.

As an ex-Apollo user I kinda liked that everything has the same look.

On lemmy.ml? I think never, or not in the foreseeable future.

Workaround: create an alt on an other instance (eg. Lemmy.world), create the community and invite your main as a moderator. Solved.

I did a write-up about it here: https://lemmy.ml/post/1487442

I, for one, welcome the ascii overlord. (͡ ° ͜ʖ ͡ °)

Belgium: yes! We drink tap water. Straight from the tap. Hardness varies from city to city. At my home I have a filter to make the water softer. That helps the taste but also keeps all faucets etc running.

The canonical makes sense for the search engine (eg Google). I would put the canonical on the source instance.

Leaves open the question what would happen if the source would disappear…

All of the others forgot to mention one thing. Currently there is a bug to subscribe to a community.

So if there is no button in the sidebar, that is because the bug.

If it works it wo...

never mind.

That sounds crazy. I can hardly imagine a scenario like this!

For racing enthousiast I created c/wec. Feel free to join!

Agreed. However, the nice thing about the fediverse is that it is not "ruled" by someone with a lot of power. I don't know, I'm just putting it out here...

Does this work? I don't think that is possible. Also, the community making is not that big of a deal (see my post), it is more of a general idea that I have...

Well, I understand your opinion. However, I kinda not understand the first part... It's her body. Why would the doctor say no to begin with?

I love Mlem and use it almost all the time. I’m missing if I have a notification (but that for sure is in the pipeline) but I miss one more thing: saving pictures on my phone. For these things I switch to the safari version.

Y’all are the best!

I'm getting a lot of syntax errors at the bottom of the page since well... recently.

SyntaxError: JSON Parse error: Unrecognized token '<'

For the racing enthousiasts, I created c/wec . Feel free to join, I'm lonely over there :D

I'm on Safari Mac. If that helps anyone...

Quick question. Can I, with my lemmy.ml account, create a community on another instance. If yes: how?

I think here in Belgium it goes something along the lines of: "ok, you want this... These are the ups and downs of doing that... You still want it? We plan you in at least 6 weeks from now, so if you would change your mind let us know".

Oh, and all things medical are virtually free compared to the US ;)

i have the same on your example (at Lemmy.world)

Agreed. But is it something we should be thinking about, or is the general feeling: "infamousbelgian, you are so badly overthinking right now..."

That would solve a large part. If it would function as an actual alt, you could also “federate” the communities all the alts are following. That would make it so much easier if an instance would stop. One could just start using an alt as a main.

Besides what everyone said… you are the boss. You control what can and can’t be done.

Eg. Lemmy.ml decided that users can’t create communities anymore on that instance. Easily solvable but a limitation to that instance.

If you own the instance, you decide what can be done and what not.

Well, it looks like it is working.

Is it? I read somewhere that data effectively gets "copied" to the different instances? But that might be wrong info :p

I had no idea it even had a name. I'm learning a lot these days! Thnx!

Can you explain where I'm misinformed? I can surely be misinformed about the workings of Lemmy. However, for GDPR you will not "win" it with a simple TOS or something like that.

If even Google can't make their Workplace to follow rules in such a way that Workplace can be used according to the AVG rules in the Belgian (well, Flemish) schools, I'm pretty sure that just saying "it's in the TOS" is not enough...

But again, no expert so I hope that I am wrong.
