Just a passerby finding lemmy... :)

ah, this issue again. well, back to reddi... or not. :( bellow this is harsh opinion, sorry ::: spoiler spoiler I think some people is just too sensitive to be on open social media that it is better that they don't participate on it at all. And any instance that catering to that kind of people should explain it better on homepage and shouldn't federate with other instance from the start so that many open-minded people doesnt end up creating community/magazine there.
::: Just want to vent , sorry if this rubs some people in the wrong way.

Web-ui is very smooth rn.. is this .world?
😅
Joke aside, the improvement is like heaven and earth. Love it!. Good work teams!

You can just block all lemmygrad's community, and if their users bothering other instance's community, let the mod block them. lemmyworld is free to choose which instances to federate like you are free to block all user/community you dislike. That is the beauty of federation. cheers.

Is this satire? If yes, don't forget to add /s at the end of your post.. thx..

thanks it is normal now. May be ui version 1.18 also need server to have same version?

No, you just need to go to that community while logged in with your lemmyworld account. Usually the url will become like this: http:// lemmy[dot]world/c/community@some.instance, and once you open that, you can post normally.

No, and it is better no. I want to have control and freedom on how I install and use Apps. Not to mention both of Flatpak and Snap is not storage efficient (compared to native). So for me who uses low end laptop with small ssd, native apps with their shared library is the way to go. I hope even when Flatpak and Snap goes popular, distro which stick with native apps also exist and usable.

Finally, a useful stats as total user count skewed by bot spam.
Speaking of bots, they are still inactive aren't they?

may be you can try to recreate the account after resetting your browser or using different browser altogether. also, don't forget to use different email to re-register your account.

Deleting efi partition just because grub not updated yet.. 😅

Just uses Akkoma or GoToSocial, setup fedifetcher or follow some relays and you can get good enough experience in Fediverse. Mastodon is literally build to handle huge amount of users so it is nowhere near efficient if used for just 1 person.

Result in bad gateway when opened with browser..

what is hexbear? they suddenly appeared today with tons of user?

Cool!, but the fedi software is not just that (especially #twitterverse ones). There are:

  • Gotosocial -> a small server first fediverse-server apps. You can spun it with just $4 vps and get a dedicates instance with features comparable to Mastodon.
  • Snac2 -> a smaller fediverse server apps, it even use less resources than Gotosocial, but the UI is so oldschool.
  • Microblog.pub -> a python-based single user focused server apps for tinkerers. It fully compatible with Fediverse/Mastodon with nice ui.

I tried all of them and still use both Gotosocial and and Snac2 instances daily, and they are a nice piece of software for their own use-case. Granted, all of these list above is not straightforward to use, but can you add that on advanced category. It feels unfair if it just the usual trio (Mastodon, Misskey/Calkey, Pleroma/Akkoma) that has exposure in the forum. thx.

Thanksfully I only read 20 or so tweets a day, so I am safe..

It is nice and small server that do the basic well. I once use it on my poor $5 vps while being stuffed together with several of my PHP/MySQL apps. It has small footprint, several of my friends still use it on half-gigs ram vps.
But its lack of features sucks tho, there are no working filters, no disable re-toot per users setting (like on akkoma), and also there are no relay support so my timeline looks bare.
I migrate from GtS for now, but if above features are implemented in near future, may be I'll migrate back to GtS.

And yes, we can meke new instances that support our beliefs and that doesnt censor our speech, but then again we dont have an evenly distributed userbase.

I think evenly distributed userbase is not necessary on fediverse as long as users has choice to get what they want. Both admins and normal users are also users, they can desire anything, both good and bad. Any admin that wish bad things will see their instance lost users and defederated by the rest of fediverse and any users that disagree with admin choices can move to the other instaces or set up their personal instance. It happens a lot on microblogging-style part of fediverse, a lot of users okay with that and community wise, it is more or less stable there.

Test

It is a bit unnerving to have bots to human ratio that high on the network. I hope they will never activated and many compromized servers get cleaned before something bad happens.

I have been trying to upping my game from Liking to Commenting. Still didn't have Idea to post though, lol...

Akkoma. It uses a bit higher ram and resource than GtS but it is packed with features.

nah, I'm bit regretting not signing up on their instance. sh.itjust.works is a cool name and can be a brag point. lol. lemmy world is a bit too generalist, but I won't migrate there as ruud (the admin of lemmyworld) is doing a good job managing the instance. I appreciate that. :)

A good and level-headed take on this situation. Thanks for sharing..

Hillarious! love it!

thanks for the info...
how is their community? is it bad for normies like us? are they contend to post on their instance only or actively trolling on other instances?

I'm live on rural area on some third world country. Public transport's schedule is random or non-existent for us, it is the norm to wait between 15 minutes to 1 hour for a public transport car to pick us. That is why we usually use our own vehicle to commute.

noted, done my part by voting. lol

Seems okay accessed from South East Asia.. thx @ruud@lemmy.world !

I change the setting on my home feed into subscribe + new comment. Works well for me. All hot posts still takes chunk of first 10 on my homefeed, but really new post is not that far down the line...

same here, it seems fun :)

I use a cheap android phone (<$120 when I bought it 3 years ago). I protect it with cheap case + Hydrogel screen protector. I'm satisfied with Hydrogel type screen protector as it still on good condition even after my phone falls screenfirst many times. There are many scratches right now on the screen protector, but it still usable and not annoying as most scratches located on the edge of screen. Most of them caused by falling sceenfirst to gravel ground and asphalt several times.. lol.

This is one of many sad reality in life. :(

Seems good.. thank.. :)

I will use both. I still need to follow some subreddit to get news on money-grabbing-mobile-games I'm addicted to.. lol
I will try to use lemmy more as much as I can though...

Reddit is North Korea now... :I

I'm still on reddit due to following subs that has very little chance to move here. If there are any hilarious poll like the one on r/pics, I will gladly help to make the result as hilarious as possible.. lol..
