Wow this “policy” has 3700 lines in total. It must take a lot of time to create and maintain it. How does someone even find the time for that?

I tried to access some blocked users and communities via tesseract.dubvee.org and it simply shows a generic “Not Found” error. So this is impossible to figure out for the average user. Even for developers it would be hard to figure out if the JSON file was hidden a bit better.

At the moment I’m reading the “Book of the new Sun” series. Its quite confusing in the beginning, but with time it gets better and better. I like that it covers a lot of philosophical questions, while still being a fun fantasy story.

I believe this is the right answer. Additionally, one character in CJK languages represents a single syllable, so you get less line breaks per word. For example the world “union” can be transliterated to Korean as 유니온. Writing that vertically takes 5 lines in English (one line per letter), but only 3 lines in Korean:

유 니 온

Open all the windows during night time when its cool, close windows and shutters during daytime. If you dont have shutters, put foil on the outside of the window, not inside. Also use a fan for air flow.

You can follow Lemmy users from Mastodon etc. But the outbox isnt even used by Mastodon, so we havent bothered to implement it properly yet.

if i open my own user profile from mastodon, it only shows me about half the posts that i actually make.

That is normal, its usually because no one on that instance follows your user profile specifically. Part of your posts are federated because someone is following a subset of the communities where you are posting.

Private communities in Lemmy only federate with approved users and their instances. So if you dont trust lemmy.xyz, simply dont approve any followers from that instance, then it will never receive any private content.

That sentence is from the old covenant, which also requires animal sacrifice among other things. The entire old covenant is not binding for Christians anymore, since Jesus replaced it with the new covenant.

Yes that’s me ;)

They contacted us just a few days ago, asking if we want to sign. So I also don’t know any more details yet, only what the public declaration says.

Okay I’m adding that to the donation page on join-lemmy.org.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-translations/pull/50

Better integration with Mastodon or Pixelfed mainly needs to be done from their side, but it seems those projects are not interested. Are there any specific improvements you would like to see?

Thanks for donating!

Lemmy puts up full-page advertisements for donations but a lot of that funding goes to running Lemmy.ml and seemingly only very little to actual code development.

Please stop spreading misinformation. The server for lemmy.ml only costs ~70€ per month which is only 2% of the total donation amount (3336€). With Lemmy we care a lot about writing high-quality and bug-free code as well as offering a good user experience. All of that takes time to do well.

Edit: For your information, only donations via Opencollective pay for lemmy.ml hosting. All other donation methods are exclusively paying for developer salaries.

Yes its called Ibis: https://ibis.wiki/

I asked @[email protected] about this as he is more familiar with the ranking algos:

Maybe not renaming active, but possibly renaming hot… but IMO they’re fine. Its just different from reddit, and more like the hackernews algorithm: join-lemmy.org/docs/contributors/07-ranking-algo.html#hacker-news . It’s more new-focused to prevent the main problem of reddits which is rewarding first posts / comments, regardless of their quality

If your instance invents fake users for voting, that is very easy to spot if you view the profile and its all empty. So you need to add a profile picture, bio and some posts as well. But if the names and avatars are all similar, or the posts are obviously LLM generated, its still quite easy to spot manipulation. Or if the modlog for that user has entries for vote manipulation. On the other hand if there is only the total number of votes, there is no way at all to see if they are legit.

I think a much better option for vote privacy is what Piefed tried using “Local-only votes”. So privacy-conscious users can choose that their votes are not federated, and then only the local admin can see them. This could be a simple boolean user setting, or could be more granular to allow/disallow vote federation with specific instances.

Here it is: https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/1a11/fep-1a11.md

By the way sent you a private message, hope you received that.

Do you think it would make sense renaming Active to Hot and vice versa?

In your imagination it can always be Friday! Don’t be one of those people who live in “real life” because it’s quite boring.

Oh yes, I need to rewatch this one!
