  • Doubtful, the "Exclude from taste profile" thing is actually rather new, it wasn't there before because I've looked for something like it before.

    I have a playlist dedicated to archiving the "Discover Weekly" for when I get around to it and it always screwed with the "taste profile" until recently when I noticed there was now that exclude option. Though I don't know when it actually rolled out lol

  • I got one of those automated feeders and flashed it with custom ESP32 firmware so I could tie it in with HomeAssistant and get fancy notifications when it fails to dispense food or it runs out or whatever.

    Ofc it also provides a way for me to manually trigger the food dispensal routine, so now I can get scammed from anywhere in the house!

  • Yea, I never said they didn't, and I'm generally a proponent of separating art from the artist.

    However, by conflating their official work and furthering their personal politics through the moderation of the lemmy.ml instance (which, whether they like it or not, IS seen as the "dev" or "flagship" or "official" instance) It's not currently feasible to actually donate money while maintaining "separation of art and artist"

    If they turned over admin duties of .ml to a new, as unbiased and fair as possible, admin team nearly all the friction for almost everyone to donating would evaporate.

    As someone in another thread put it "Devs should do dev work and not mod work, admins should do mod work and not dev work"

  • Taking a quick look it looks like these coolant changes are between 50k and 100k or every 5-10 years, that's still LOADS better than every 6-10k miles or every couple of months lol

  • It's mostly because it's written in Rust, not a whole lot of Open Source devs in Rust. If Lemmy was written in something like Go or TS or hell even C# it'd probably would have been forked by now lol

    Also that list was just possible scenarios, not listed in any order, IMO the most likely to happen is 4, because PieFed is written in TS iirc and is why it's so much faster at development. I think 1 will happen for a while, but won't hold long term

  • This really isn't about what they believe in, but their activities to push it on everyone else. This isn't a case of someone discovering dessalines separately maintained personal politics blog or something, in that sort of scenario, I wouldn't have a problem with it.

    The problem stems from how they continue to manage the "flagship" instance. They can say it's not or that it's "just a test server" or that it's just randomly recommended like any other instance, but that does not change what people see it as especially since they run official development comms and official support comms from it.

    I've seen it before: "I went to check out Lemmy and went on the official developer instance lemmy.ml but it seemed to just be a bunch of tankies so I left"

  • Or alternatively, they could stop doing what they're doing with .ml and loads more people, including myself, would probably start donating towards development

    understand that means that the devs might have to move on from Lemmy development and prioritize other work.

    Oh I do, the way I see it there are 4 paths

    1. they eek out just enough donations despite their constant merging of personal politics and their work and nothing changes
    2. They turn over .ml to a less biased admin team that will actually keep things fair and deal with the propaganda /misinfo (Unlikely)
    3. Lemmy development stops, and a new team without all the baggage takes over on a fork
    4. Lemmy development stops and PieFed or other alternative fills the gap

    RN they're asking for donations, but refusing to deal with the root issue directly leading to such low donations.

  • I haven't bought an EV yet myself because I'm not buying a new car until my current one kicks the bucket, but don't they have that "quick charge" feature similar to phones where if the battery is low it can get to "good enough to get you to work and back" in like 5 minutes?

    I just can't wait to not have to worry about oil changes or "odd engine sounds" anymore lol

    I'll donate money to individual instances, but for as long as Nutomic/Dessalines is in charge of the .ml instance I will not be donating to them.
