  • It's already been in beta testing for a little while so probably releasing soon! Of course that's a bit of a risky change lol so I'll be waiting and see if any bugs are discovered in the weeks after release.

  • Beehaw has given up on Lemmy (Or just given up in general? They aren't taking care of what they have nor have they moved to something new).

    They're still on v0.18.4 despite v0.18.5 being an extremely easy and safe update with a hotfix for an issue they were specifically complaining about. Literally takes like a couple minutes to do that update but they never did it. They're also keeping themselves open to at least 1 security issue by being on such an old version.

  • yea but the new parallel sending feature should help them more, we'll see when it gets released

  • Why not post to both with Lemmy's cross-post feature?

  • I really like the feature for All/Local/Subscribed, but maybe it's a temporary solution until we get some better method to group communities and post to a group of communities instead of posting to communities individually

  • I only see it posted on 3 communities, isn't that how the Lemmy cross posting feature is supposed to work? What if someone is unaware of 1 or 2 of these communities, or their instance is defederated from 1 of them?

    Lemmy has post deduplication. Are you using an app that doesn't support this? I haven't seen crossposts spamming my feed before, usually it's a pretty good feature, something that Reddit doesn't have.

    In fact, Lemmy's post deduplication is a little TOO aggressive https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2104

  • Thanks, you're right I need to make icons and banners, I'm a terrible artist though lol

  • I can get upvotes, but getting other people to post/comment/crosspost is nearly impossible lol

  • Removed

    GitHub is down

  • people like to make a fuss and get attention on social media, it's something to talk about, entertainment

    they're weren't even down for that long

  • Eh you still can, the git remote is a mirror but you can still make commits locally and sync later

    you can also have multiple git remotes/mirrors

  • I'm surprised this still isn't enabled by default

  • This is not limited to just Lemmy but any federated systems.

    Not just federated systems, things like the Wayback Machine exist too, web crawlers, people can save websites too (every web browser has a save option), or you can self host an archiving crawler if you want to backup a certain website, data hoarders exist.

  • For example, last I heard, an administrator has to drop into a command line to delete media from removed posts, otherwise they’d still be accessible if the URL was known. (Think illegal material.)

    that's not true anymore, there's a dashboard built into the website now

  • I was so confused when I heard about lemmy-ui-leptos, it really sounds like a waste of time to me 🤷‍♂️

    I'm sure everyone has a different opinion, but I think the most important new feature should be the plugin system. It seems like the only way to scale up the number of contributors and support a variety of languages.

  • I also like the New Comments sort (forums style), I have a widget on my phone's home screen showing Subscribed - New Comments

  • Scaled is amazing for the Subscribed feed, because I'm (obviously) interested in the small communities that I'm subscribed to. But it's not quite the same when browsing All or Local. Usually I do stick to Subscribed though.
