  • From that article

    Carrefour has been one of the most active retailers to challenge big consumer products and food companies over prices. Last year, the French multinational started a “shrinkflation” campaign of sticking warnings on products that have shrunk in size but cost more.

    Incredibly based move from Carrefour. Guess I should shop there more often.

  • That guy has no idea of what's going on but appears to be having the time of his life.

  • To add to the approved reply:

    The GDPR has some other requirements to it, such as an EU-based representative being necessary for operating in the EU, allowing users to request data updates, and getting consent for data collected

    You could make the argument that the mall Santas aren't authorized representatives of real Santa, as they are hired by malls with no supervision from the North Pole administration. Thankfully this doesn't matter, because Santa himself is a resident of Finland, an EU country, which is also where his business is located. Chistmas is saved, everyone.

  • Seems to be up now. But I get your concerns, having an instance with an inactive head admin and redundance of sysadmins isn't great. Best of luck for your new instance!

  • My takeaway from this article is that, as it turns out, California has laws banning the consumption of equine meat. Man, what the hell? Horse is delicious and donkey is arguably even better. How is that any different than eating beef, sheep and so on?

  • Yeah it's Lemmy + Kbin. I'm not aware of any other federated link aggregators (read as Reddit clones), but if there are they would also fit.

  • I get the vibe some instances just don’t want to share that information

    Oh yeah, big time.
    When I posted it to the lemmy admin chatroom, some admins who shall remain nameless commented saying it "gave bad vibes" and that wanting to know such information felt "toxic and gross". Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, of course, but considering the data is already available under the /instances page... well it's just weird that anyone would have a problem with wanting to make it more accessible.

  • Axios for requests - easier than working with the Fetch API in some cases

    May I ask what cases? I used to use Axios on Node, before they implemented the fetch API over there but I haven't touched it since. And defintiely never used it on the client. Could you make an example of some case where it'd be easier to work with Axios than with fetch?

  • Fair enough :)
    I was wondering if you were trying to run Lemmy on some place you are totally not supposed to run it on. Like a nintendo64 or a samsung smart fridge lol.

  • Sorry, despite both being an admin and having recently migrated my pict-rs to an object storage, I don't have a solution for your issue.

    I'm just here to ask a question out of sheer curiosity: why install from scratch? To me it sounds like asking for trouble and shooting yourself in the foot. Is Docker not suitable for your setup?

  • Very noncredible, but it would be funny as fuck if it happened.

    Please Argentinobros, I know your economy is doing terrible right now but could you please make it even worse for the lulz?

  • Holy cow that is beyond impressive. Sure enough, sometimes it does hallucinate a bit, but it's already quite wild. Can't help but wonder where we'll be in the next 5-10 years.

  • Wow ok. Well that was just one man's opinion, if you have numbers on who is fine with that kind of access and who isn't then by all means keep going with your schedule. Maybe I'm just too cautious and my perspective is skewed because of that.

  • I understand. If it was up to me I would consider the permission settings a priority, as agreeing to all of that can be a pretty big deal for some people (I know it is for me). Some users may be willing to go all the way, but many might be gelous or scared of losing their Reddit accounts or even giving access to them to what, in their eyes, would be a complete stranger.

    Anyway, as I said, the idea itself is cool. Hopefully your project can be a gateway to the Fediverse for many Redditors, as the enshittification goes on.

  • While I admire the initiative of bringing Reddit users to Lemmy, you are asking for way too many permissions, my dude.

    submit links and comments from my account

    read my DMs and send DMs from my account

    keep these permissions indefinitely

    I wanted to check out your project, but there is no way in hell I am agreeing to that lol. Chances are you don't even need all of those. Also, I see that apparently Fediverser is open source. You might want to point that out on the portal.alien.top site, as that might make people more keen on trusting you with their Reddit accounts

  • Have you ever used Reddit's search? If yes, did you really have a positive experience with it? Personally I found it quite terrible, UX wise in particular. Many people online seem to agree. If you're looking for something on Reddit it's actually easier to Google and restrict the site to reddit.com

  • No it cannot lmao. It's hilarious they think otherwise.
