I guess you could use that to make your own private community?

Should still include "i dont like it" as a reason

Tbh i thinknthroaways are a better solution. "Hiding" stuff selectively can never 100% work.

The reason i prefered reddit to all the other big socials was how easy pseudonynous activity is. No "real name policy" BS. threadiverse has the same feature so i like it too.

haha good to know. :)

I was not able to complete the set up. :( I am not given up on it yet though.

could you like run a cron job to speed up the audiofiles after download? using maybe ffmpeg? might be a better way

I didn't know github.com had referral links now!

"Fediverse: alternative social media"

Or something

Make it somewhat findable and discernable. Including to the 99.9999999999% of people who dont get the jokes.

it's harder to do than you think. you can tell people about signal because everyone understands messaging. and telling them to use signal is/was good advice!

Trust me you will never even think to get into the differences between wayland and x11. hate systemd? excited about btrfs? it is literally impossible to discuss any of it without shared context.

This is the place to ask: https://fedia.io/m/FirefoxCSS and check the sidebar links

If you figure it out let me know. I tried and failed.

omg I literally had to check if I had written this. We are almost the same.

Main difference is that I have a working understanding about linux file structure and am comfortable with text files, but I have only on a couple of occasions even attempted anything with docker. it makes me tired to think about.

Other than that I so feel you on changing things, not knowing what actually fixed the problem. And then having to re-learn everything from scratch on another occasion. I also feel there is a limit to how much I want to learn. I have no aspirations to do this for a living or to become extremely proficient. I have spent the past couple of weekends struggling with drives and shares and permissions etc. It should be simple but it's hard and takes such a long time.

On your advice because it sounds like you are in a similar situation I will try it.

I've been slowly dipping my toes into self hosting.

What are the risks or disadvantages of using something like this? My plan has been to run debian with whatever services. Reading about this, it seems very complex and that makes me worried that it is more to go wrong.

On the other hand, it'll be 10 years til I learn how to do all this myself.

So is it a good idea or not?

I missed whatever drama was associated with alien.top and the URL just 404s now.

This project reminds me of when Cory Doctorow describes adversarial interoperability. Was it inspired by this?

I think adversarial interop is a good explanation for all the permissions required.

So is this a bit.ly-type url shortener?

That very well could exist with one of the userstyles or front ends.

kbin enhancement suite has it. But it's for kbin obvs. It's a user script I run with ViolentMonkey firefox extension. There are a ton of lemmy projects along similar lines. Have a look.

I keep trying to up/downvote with a and z. Which when I first saw it I thought "that's such a stupid mapping I will never remember it". How many months later I am literally still doing it.

timer plugs are so freaking useful. once you have a couple you start noticing things you could do with them. just regular digital non-smart outlet timers. don't get the analogue ones, they ticktickticktick.

So you want a link to csam or admission from someone thst they seaech for and viewed csam?

Yes like all the people using rice for food has totslly ruined rice

Dont even get me started on indoor plumbing. Was so much better before it got popular.

bit.ly for lemmy

No stake in any of this but curious, what info would you find convincing?

You can use ffupdater to get updates of various FF forks, including Iceraven, and other browsers.
