I think it's all had a bigger impact on Lemmy than it has had on Reddit. The lasting impact might be that Reddit now has viable competition for the first time since Digg, which is a good thing.

I used Thunderbird about 10 years ago? Looks amazing compared to what I remember.

On the bright side for them, they still have a commercial monopoly. The number of ads might go up while the quality of the content goes down.

"I...understand that when you are president you have to be more careful."

Come on now, surely you just have to not kiss people when you shouldn't. It makes it sound like he's saying it would have been totally fine if he'd done it off camera.

  1. They'll not roll back the api pricing
  2. Our data will be what is leaked.

I don't see how this helps anything.

£579 puts it at £80 more than a Pixel 7, very tough competition..

I started up !oldphotosinreallife@lemmy.world and it's basically just me posting. Not really much traction but who knows, maybe it'll get going.

I don't pay more than £400 for a phone. So that.

Looks very fuel tankish

As in they'll have spend the rest of their lives paying the financial costs of what cis couples get for free.

Is this what everyone is using now? I was using Megalodon, Tusky, and the original app, but I've skipping a few updates of all of them.

It's unbelievably polished for a first release. Not 100% feature complete mind you, but it's mind blowing the dev pull this off.

I just created /c/oldphotosinreallife for those of us missing the old one. Hopefully some of the new users will find it and add some content.

I suspect the weird recurring memes that require decade old knowledge of the platform to fully understand is going to create some "quirky" AI hallucinations

Looked to be a lot more than 100k to me

Wither GDPR applies to an individual instance will be up to those running the instance to decide.

If you decide it does, then you need to do a few things. Number one is read up advice on compliance with GDPR.

Being able to delete data alone doesn't mean GDPR compliance. I'm thinking about the need for privacy notices on sign up, retention schedules for data, lawful basis of processing, records of processing activities.. Data subjects have numerous rights, which apply depend on the lawful basis you're processing under.

I'd suggest that larger general instances might want to read up more urgently than smaller single focus "hobby" instances.

edit: more I think about this, I think there is an moral responsibility for the developers to help those running instances comply. If GDPR does not apply to an instance, it is still good practice to allow uses to delete their data, etc.. Also, art. 20 of GDPR is the right to portability. Interesting to see how this applies to fediverse platforms like Lemmy.

I prefer Droidify

I created !oldphotosinreallife@lemmy.world, which has over 300 subscribers, but limited interaction.

I'm hoping we'll see no code online hosting options one day, would make single user instances a lot easier.

I was on Beehaw up until they announced the defederation, switch here straight after.

Clear implications for Threads/Instagram data sharing.

Did he say how these aliens made it across the vast interstellar distances, and why after all that they crashed on earth?

Suggests England is mostly furries

I barely voted at all on Reddit, trying to be more engaged here.

Haha, sorry. There will 100% be someone right now thinking they are going to hell for multiple reasons, but wasn't what I was trying to say

Thanks! Plenty good will and community on Lemmy :-)

I got one yesterday. I'm struggling to get to my notifications without the rear scanner for dragging down. I don't think there is really a solution other than getting used to it.

Yeah I think they needed to aim for around £450, though even then they're up against the A54.

Thunder is likely the closest to sync

Endless Sky is a space fleet building, trading, battling, exploration game. Free and open source.

Flight flight flight flight

My statement about it being up to those running instances is mean in terms of it's up to them to read the legislation and come to a conclusion. If I were hosting an instance I'd certainly assume it applied, though I doubt there has been any case testing its implementation in this sort of situation.

I can see someone starting a lawsuit against a standards incompliant server that ignores deletes and edits, though.

I wonder if the first data breach will draw the attention of a regulator. We're all using essentially alpha software, with no privacy notice, I doubt there are RoPAs or DPIAs, I doubt there is a DPO.. all those things might upset someone like the ICO in the UK if a breach were to occur.

That's really amazing. Hopefully it won't cost the couple's their souls.

OMG I've turned it on and it's not working yet, but I'm sure I'll work it out now. THANKS!

I was thinking of doing it so certain communities from the other place would feel welcome, but someone is domain squatting what I was planning

They might not have bothered to implement an automated setup just for EU & UK users, meaning it's an ad-hoc process each time. If they go over the 1 month you can head over to the ICO website and file a report.

Lemmy.nz is a nice small country instance with one rule, don't be a dick.

I just don't use email enough anymore, except for work which is all Outlook.

The instance I'm on has already preemptively defederated/blocked Threads.

I'm going to guess a large percentage cannot fully explain why the think that.
