  • Its like I uncover a new blaze alt every other day.

  • Ublock origin has a cookie popup filterlist.

  • I mean, discoverability is hard, sure, but add a few hashtags and you can get a lot of people to see your posts. also, mentioning a lemmy group as a user posts your post to the community.

  • Eh, flowers are in lawns, and are a big benefit to leaving it uncut.

  • I know, thats the joke :)

  • Sir, this is a wendy's post about lawns.

  • Mastodon really is the internet explorer of the fediverse.
    In any case, I don't think its that bad. I would compare it to an email provider accidentially leaking messages. Still bad, but its not a reason to abandon email as a means of communication.
    We should encrypt posts, like diaspora does. Like how we should pgp encrypt emails, but no one will.

    also, I just checked myself, a random "private" post I made isn't accessible over AP if I curl it unauthenticated. Running curl.exe https://calckey.world/notes/a63slz8j6l -H "Accept: application/activity+json" returns nothing, but replacing the uri with a public post does show it.
    An insecure server's copy of the post isn't accessible over AP, only the original post's link should return anything.

  • Have you heard of neverending legacy? Its a (mostly unfinished) webgame by orteil42, creator of cookie clicker. Overpopulation is the real problem in the endgame, and its incredibly hard to cull the population without everyone dying of hunger.

  • Maybe I'm wrong, but shouldn't posts only be insecure if they're propagated to the insecure instance? Is any private post visible to people on servers that the poster doesn't have followers on?
    Could I curl the uri of a post thats "private" and get the post's content?

  • You cannot use a mastodon app as a lemmy client, but you can view lemmy communities by opening them as if they are profiles. For example, open @fediverse@lemmy.world and it will show up as a user, but it will be the communitiy's posts.

    You can mention it in a post to forward the post to the community as well.

  • We are tiny in comparison to the rest of the fediverse.

  • I don't mean this in a mean way, but what do you mean?
    How else would I drink tea?

  • I'm on the opposite side of Ireland (kerry). I don't drink that much tea though! I thought 4 cups was a lot.

  • sure, why not.

  • Between the media surpression and the fact a lot of people don't follow the news, or give a shit, i'd say no.
