he's just packaging (for the fleas)

don't really care either way about the ai thing but deffo ban moldy posts. we already have !funny@lemmy.world or !memes@lemmy.world for that kinda stuff

the 0.19 implementation is so half-assed I genuinely think the Lemmy devs just don't want that functionality but expected quite a lot of backlash if they outright said as much, so they decided to implement something that ticks the box in the "wanted features" list without having any effect

afaik it only blocks communities and explicitly lets users from blocked instances through

all of them that aren't dedicated to political discussion

see https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/comment/5790630

doesn't change my overall point /shrug

the thought behind banning it and explicitly allowing "US acceptable zones" is so we can shove all US discussions there and let people talk other things in peace, and those who want to talk US politics can go and mess shit up there, far away from the rest of us who just want to chill and be silly in peace :3

doing it on a "case by case basis" does not help when the intent behind the hypothetical rule is to enact a Lemmy wide change in the atmosphere of the platform

.world is unique in that because of its size it has kinda ended up being "Lemmy" to most people. I very much doubt the people posting porn on .world care about instances and federation and just treat .world as a centralized site

...and I thought of a web game you can make with this, if anyone's bored and looking for something to do: https://brain.d.on-t.work/notes/9on0iba4evg40hic

• pick a random page
• find all pages nearby
• make the player guess the random page from the nearby pages
• if they haven't guessed the exact page, compare the coordinates and score based on distance to the correct page

I have just been informed you can also see pages nearby other pages with a special URL query (apparently no interface exists for this yet)

yeah same here unfortunately. but then I am currently somewhere I'd consider middle of nowhere

actually there was one plane crash but that's not necessarily an article I'm interested in

tbf Lemmy's behavior is documented and standardized (https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/fep/1b12/fep-1b12.md) it's just that their fallback code for instances that don't federate the Lemmy way also boosts the target posts for each update as opposed to just once on creation like you'd expect

5. Linux tech support

how many times did you edit that post per chance? Lemmy seems to boost edited posts for some odd reason

see https://brain.d.on-t.work/notes/9md8phwlkzlj0xe9 and https://brain.d.on-t.work/notes/9m1y542jlg8002bj for it happening on my misskey instance hacked together to support Lemmy federation

(talking about microblog fedi here, Lemmy/threadiverse is it's own thing)

don't do hashtags. hashtags (especially common ones like #memes) are overrun by repost bots and low quality garbage.

the trick is to be on a small-to-medium instance you vibe with (1k active users seems to be the sweet spot. anything larger than 2k I'd avoid. do NOT join any flagship instances like mastodon.social), follow fun people from your local timeline, and see who they boost. and follow up the boost chain until your timeline is sufficiently fun.

ah, the Skini

alternatively: why are you linking to an image at all and not just making a text post

I just recently found out they have forklift rodeos! there are videos of some on YouTube

the forklift skill is impressive, but the comments are the best part

I wish I was in the us lol
