I wish communities could be grouped in some way.
or not 🤷♂️
Sure it's more practical, but your whole community (as in "people") is now centralized on a single point. If you have a single one "gaming" community, and it disappears or is taken over, you lose everything and need to start over from scratch. If you have 3-4 communities spread across different instances, if one of those communities become unusable, it's easier to abandon it to become active on the next one.
Decentralization is not a silver bullet, but as we've seen during the last year with Twitter and Reddit, it's better than the alternative. Nothing prevents you to subscribe to several similar communities, each with its own flavor, and participate in the one(s) you want.
I'd like to know the median instead of the average.
The boy scout technique: fix your types when you're working on a bug or a feature, one file at a time. Also try to use unknown
instead of any
for more sensitive parts, it will force you to typecheck.
The kid that tried to kill 2 people by throwing them bricks, paint buckets, and broken glass is now a spokesperson for Facebook? How surprising.
It is opt-in though? The site can't track you until you agree with its cookies policy
The EU did its job correctly by forcing sites to ask for consent. How that rule is implemented is up to the sites, and they often choose to do it in the most annoying possible way. And then tell you to blame the EU for it.
Also as a website owner, you only need to ask for consent when you use more than "strictly necessary" cookies (https://gdpr.eu/cookies/), i.e. cookies that are needed for your site to function normally.
I see Lemmy is already at the "X is bad, updoots on the left" stage
Under GDPR if you have had a data breach you have a legal obligation to assess whether you need to report it and you must make the report within 72 hours of discovering the breach.
As an aside, this is why it's no longer possible in 2023 to host a social site as a hobby. Of course GDPR is good, I'm glad it exists, but as an individual, it's not the kind of responsibility I want for my hobby.
"Can we focus on Rampart, please"
lmao that game was so bad they removed it from Playstation's online store, but yeah I guess "it wasn't that bad"
Edit: here's "not that bad" according to CDPR: https://nitter.lacontrevoie.fr/gautoz/status/1407006269047771151#m
I've been using Kagi for ~6-9 months, as a developer. Gives satisfying results and I never feel the need to go back to Google. When I was using DDG, I always went back too Google to get better results.
Same here. I think the only way is to click on the host name next to the title, and block it from here, but I guess I'll wait to be on my home computer to do that...
Edit: doable from mobile: click on the domain, scroll down the list of posts, and click on the "block" icon in the "domain" block.
I'm pretty vanilla with my plugins:
- Omnisearch - disclaimer, I'm the main dev
- ReadItLater - a scraper to quickly save articles that I reference in my own notes
- Excalidraw
- Linter - mainly to automatically format my notes with a
createdAt
metadata and an h1 title - Dataview - I don't use it extensively but I have a few js snippets to query external APIs like Github or Mastodon
I try to avoid plugins that stray from "standard" markdown, to not rely on Obsidian.
but, do you protest any of that?
"you should protest everything or nothing, no middle ground allowed", this has a big "and yet you participate in society" vibe.
"deleting" only flags the comments as such in the database, but that still makes them unreadable. That means unreadable conversations and lost information for users.
The same author also has a free tutorial here. The ECS library used in it is a bit dated, and it's a good idea to follow the tutorial but use a more modern one (like hecs, or bevy_ecs if you're feeling more comfortable in rust)
And the site itself if you feel that the Twitch high-speed meme spam isn't really worth it: https://reddark.untone.uk/
Agree with this.
From the op:
"they're for power users and regular users won't understand them"
It's right though. 90+% of users are fine with default settings, so it makes sense to hide them. Otherwise, at best it is confusing & intimidating, at worst a lot of users will have an awful UX because they tweak settings they don't understand.
