The more important thing: anyone can see their posts now. This is rather crucial for a government institution’s feed and not true on Twitter anymore.

“Not ours! Not ours!”

Thanks for the explanation, but that’s not where my confusion is. What is the context? Why is this posted in mildlyinfuriating? This is just some person saying stuff™

Again… what?

What?

The Wizard Book is a classic that basically “builds” programming as a concept.

(it is very technical though. So not sure it’s something you’re looking for)

This has existed for a while and can be used by anyone: https://github.com/ggerganov/kbd-audio

There’s a difference between making a vim reference and “oh, a mourning family message? quick, i must find a stale joke to crack for internet points”

Feel free to tell yourselves this is respectful. I think some people here have been on the internet for too long.

Poor taste.

Nope, your app should be able to send you there by clicking that ID. If it isn’t, then that’s likely a feature that is still being implemented (it’s the equivalent to r/subreddit on Reddit).

Btw in case you haven’t noticed, you’re already commenting on a Post from lemmy.world, so no, you don’t need a separate account.

This is some [email protected] stuff

At the time Facebook fueled a genocide in Myanmar they had practically no moderation for Burmese content, if I recall correctly.

This puts too much blame on the users. Individuals do not have the power to fight international mega corporations. It also ignores that, regardless of who you think is at fault, adtech violates a ton of privacy laws, at the very least in the EU. If a company doesn’t have a legal basis for collecting personal data, they are not allowed to do it. Especially if it is sensitive data like medical information, religion and sexual preferences.

I don’t get why we have to defend these practices or downplay them.

Federation happens gradually and changes are usually not visible everywhere at the same time. Using a fully qualified name (or an URL like https://lemmy.world/c/community@instance) you should be able to access your new community though.

I love German regional trains. This is a very common issue. Happens all the time.

This is just a byproduct of current events. It’s also what tends to happen in other areas of the Fediverse. Like Mastodon, when something really stupid happens at Twitter again (which, tbf, happens a lot these days).

If I’m to guess, discussions will normalise within a week. Some of the users who jumped ship from Reddit are going to go back again or give up on the Fediverse in some other way. That is just an unfortunate reality. But if we’ve learned anything from Mastodon, the user base will continue to grow at a more stable pace and the “Threadiverse” (Lemmy, Kbin) will become a suitable alternative to Reddit without caring about Reddit too much.

Naja, Email mit den großen Providern ist hier wohl eher ein schlechtes Beispiel. Weil man gerade da die Probleme sieht. Google und Microsoft kontrollieren praktisch, wer in der Email-Welt teilnehmen darf und wer nicht. Sich heute dazu zu entscheiden, einen eigenen Email-Server einzurichten, ist schon sehr ambitioniert. Zwar noch möglich, aber mit sehr viel Aufwand verbunden, und möglicherweise klappt es am Ende wegen willkürlichem Blackholing und anderen Strategien der Monopolisten gar nicht.
