I honestly wouldn’t mind seeing an extension to the IRC spec to bring in reasonable discord-like functionality to some servers. It’s time we start moving back to open standards from walled gardens.

I’ll stop buying apple when I can get a multi-core arm machine that’s not made of scrapbin plastic from a traditional PC manufacturer. I have two M1 machines running Asahi Linux and they’re excellent computers.

I’ve also heard Squirrel

From their statuspage:

“Reddit Failing to Load Identified - We’re aware of problems loading content and are working to resolve the issues as quickly as possible. Jun 12, 2023 - 07:58 PDT”

What there needs to be is concerted development focus on fixing these quality of life issues. Unfortunately, there was not much time allowed for this to happen seeing as it was about a week or two from the announcement to the start of the blackout. These things take time and development time isn’t always available.

I love mine, it just works. I have Linux, macOS, and Windows devices printing to mine flawlessly.

Sounds like a skill issue, Mr. CEO

Bringing the r/place concept here would be cool, perhaps different instances could all do something similar of their own? Federated r/place sounds fun. :^)

I don’t think so, but I could be wrong. I guess the “groups” functionality of Facebook could technically qualify it as such, but its primarily aimed at being a social media website. I’m not 100% on it either, because there’s a lot of overlap between platforms and their functionality.

So my understanding is Reddit, or specifically u/spez, tried to claim that the Apollo developer was blackmailing them over the entire API pricing debacle. The Apollo developer posted the audio and transcript of the call with Reddit showing they were lying. Now they’ve claimed his App is poorly developed and making wasteful amounts of API calls- so now he’s posted a large swath of code online to disprove that also.

tl;dr reddit CEO caught in a couple lies

Make sense. Deleting a post probably just toggles a ‘deleted’ flag in the database and doesn’t touch the post contents. Writing over the comment, however, would actually change the data. Then you can proceed to delete it.

It’s been such a slow decline but the writing has been on the wall for a while. Maybe this is the push everyone needs to take a chance on a new platform.

It’s in the name, mostly. It aggregates content. You can post links, text posts, images to specific communities and have them displayed in a feed of your communities of choice. That’s what Digg was and Reddit is, and kind of what Lemmy is doing- except on the Fediverse.

Such a great instance name

iirc they just went ahead and implemented a large swath of the policy changes anyway, and hoped nobody would notice the doublespeak.

I just use the email metaphor and it usually gives people a rough idea how it works. It seems more complicated than it is.

It strongly reminds me of linked IRC servers, I love it.

Same, and it’s an open standard. We need to take the web back to open platforms and standards.

Honestly, a Lorex/Dahua/Hikvision IP camera, or even a no-name amazon IP camera should work. They all support ONVIF and can generally be watched over HTTP. They don’t require a NVR or anything and certainly don’t require anything more than a network connection. They’re not wireless, however.

I was showing off for a girl I was seeing, using my pullup bar. I live in a small cabin so it’s over the only doorframe that had clearance for the handles- the one between my kitchen and bathroom. I pull myself up and it strikes me as a good idea to put my feet up on the bar to attempt to hang by the legs.

Naturally, my feet go backwards over my head, feeling like I’m about to rip my rotator cuffs, I just drop. Straight onto a tile floor. Knock the wind out of myself and shockingly I don’t hit my head. Hurt my back, shoulders, and pride quite a bit.
