Pure gold! Imagine how difficult it was to make hundred people to stand still holding a train-like weight over their heads to capture it on prehistoric camera 😅

Would be interested in more detailed followup about the search. Anything in particular stands out?

Yeah! now it's turn of facebook to grow friendi.ca

I originally started with protein diet and casual gym goings. Gym forces you to eat more protein and use up a lot of excess calories. Also, you feel energised and mentally uplifted.

Once you're few months into gym routine, you'll read up more how to hit your macros, how to restructure constituents, how to manage appetite. For now, this all Will overwhelm you and you'll have trouble sticking to any of it. I know I did.

Since you're at the start I suggest simply start noticing healthier options. Do it intentionally for few weeks before even doing anything. When you put more effort into this, you'll discover your own ways how to eat better without the need for fixed "diet".

Shift from "diet" to healthier nutrition. Meaning slowly build a habit of eating better without overwhelming oneself.

If you eat out, inquire about more diverse menu options. Less processed food, more protein and fiber.

It's a journey, it takes years, don't rush it and you'll be surprised of the results

No hall sensor sticks at this point is just wasteful

Fyi There are automated instances mirroring Twitter accounts that for some reason refuse to register on mastodon

You sent me to this rabbithole and here's the relevant issue for those who are also interested github

TLDR: devs are on board, PR is being actively developed and reviewed. ETA is unclear but is sooner rather then never later

Project: Joplin joplinapp.org !joplinapp@sopuli.xyz

What it does right: Focus on user experience by aligning aims of product with aim of users.

Everything it does is foss, however its main revenue achieving product (cloud sync target) is focused on convenience rather than vendor lock-in. So it incentivizes the project to cater to its users.

What's so unique about it: due to lack of monetary incentive a lot of oss projects simply forget about the user and serve mostly to themselves. They fail to listen to feedback because listening to feedback means loss of resources rather than gaining them. As a result many critical bugs are unfixed for decades and UI is so dated no new users want to use the product.

TLDR: don't forget to create revenue generating module along with the main foss product

Folks, can we simply uncheck option "[x] Show Bot Accounts" in new user profiles by default? (same as with "[x] Show NSFW")

Firstly, I totally understand people who find reposts annoying and I have blocked few of those because they're simply irrelevant to me

lemmit online / hackernews reposts

• those help drive inspiration for post making: I can snatch best ideas and post my own version on lemmy
  It's especially helpful when you're maintaining inactive community where you're the only poster -- since inactive subs are seen as dead ones.
• not my use case, but I see those instances as ability to combat FOMO for the users who just switched over to lemmy and getting used to its quirks. No need to snoop to reddit if its content is in your feed either way
  • mastodon got almost a dozen of such repost instances from twitter and it's enormous bonus in transition from birdsite
• if you see lemmit online posts then someone on your instance wants this content/subscribed to it -- it doesn't appear out of nowhere

QoL bots

• tldr bots are generally helpful for long reads\vids and I wish they would be available as option on post creation page
• bots for linking to invidious instances / archive.ph nonpaywalled articles: just saves time

P.S. as a bonus here's a page about bots that wikipedia uses to streamline and automate work Wikipedia bots - Wikipedia

User of those bots here:

I think this whole problem stems from the lack of tools to configure bot experience. On mastodon, for example, bots can post "unlisted" posts -- which don't show up in the main feed. Only subscribed people receive their posts. On Lemmy there's no such privacy toggle and admins are forced to shoot a fly with cruise missiles -- by defederating instances

I'd understand if you folks decide to defederate from bot instances however I'd urge you to escalate this discussion upstream to LemmyNet github for following features

• post privacy i.e. intended reach
• moderation tools to handle bots activity en masse

This would be far more lasting impact on quality of global fediverse feed and efficient use of admins' time IMO

Check for debris and cloggs anywhere you can

Classy!

Just listing some features I find valuable, some of them got issues already

• Migrating communities to another instance
• Ability to subscribe to communities in bulk
• Notification for new communities on particular instance
• subscribe to post replies when you're not the poster
• mentions by username notification
• subscribed + local/all feed together
• local/all feed without subscribed
• mark as read on posts

Chrome be like:
