Worth noting that Lemmy receives at least some institutional funding for its development. And I believe some of that funding is contingent on hitting active user goals or similar metrics.

It’s gotten to the point where a lot of people very clearly think even the word conspiracy means “a crazy nonsense theory”. They’ll say “it’s not a conspiracy…” and then proceed to describe a textbook conspiracy.

Fuck yeah!
Btw the other way you can do it (which will only be noticeable to users with screen readers) is to put the alt text between the square brackets.



Downvote posts that consist mostly or entirely of an image of text but don’t also include a transcription in either the alt text or the body.


Ok, so, do you agree with it? Or do you think that Notepad++ has demonstrated a good commitment to doing the right thing that means it’s still just as worthy of recommendation as it was last month?


Not my choice. But higher ups.
Ok, but your comment pretty clearly expressed an implied agreement with that choice.


Perhaps, but I’m describing something slightly different. Your description is basically “one platform supporting two protocols that basically do the same thing”. I’m talking more about “one app that has two separate-but-related bits of functionality, each using the more appropriate protocol for that job”.


I really like the idea of donating to a broader consortium, like the NLNet that’s suggested already, specifically because they give donations to less consumer-facing elements that might be less likely to attract direct funding.
Other than that though, I’d say donate to the things that (a) you already use a lot, and which (b) seem most in need of funding. If it’s big and famous and fairly stable without significant ongoing costs, it’s probably not as important to donate to. If it’s niche, needs a lot of development to add useful features or polish, or has significant ongoing costs (e.g. servers), that would be a higher priority. Evaluate based on whatever balance of those factors you choose.


Exactly. Conservatism is not really very strongly correlated with age, controlled for other factors. But it is correlated with various things that are themselves correlated with age. Like wealth. And family status.


Got my bike serviced on Tuesday. It desperately needed it. Turned out the seatpost was literally collapsing! Cost me a pretty penny, but it’s so nice having a bike back in good condition.
Have also just started sorting the logistics to play Jet Lag: Hide + Seek (a city-wide hide & seek game played using public transport—see !nebula@lemmy.world for more) in late April. Am very excited.


Sounds like you need to upgrade your toaster, noob.


I mean, there’s nothing technically stopping one app supporting both protocols natively, especially since Lemmy already includes a field for people’s profiles to link their Matrix ID. Though to my knowledge none do it yet.


Fair enough! It’s your meal, and even if it were completely uncontroversial that beans need to be in chilli, if you don’t like beans you don’t include them!


What, why not beans? I know beans was a meme on Lemmy a while back, but it’s a legit part of a chilli recipe.
Serious question.


Personally I think if LW wants to ban a certain kind of content, more power to them. But they should be transparent about it.
If they’ve said they’ll unban pirate content, then pirate content should be allowed. If they want it banned, fine, but make a statement clarifying that that is the case.
OP is doing good work by pointing this out.


Your 142.x.x.x will be your public IP address. All devices on your network share that public IP. They all have a unique private IP address too, accessible only on your network. It probably starts with 192.168.x.x, but it could be 10.x.x.x or even less likely 172.16–31.x.x.
If you want to operate a web server that users can go to by typing https://youdomain.com/, you’ll need to forward from ports 80 and 443 through to the internal IP address of your server, using the “port forwarding” settings on your router. What port on the internal IP you route to depends on how your server is configured. But a basic default configuration is fairly likely to be 80 and 443, too.
Since you have a reverse proxy, all traffic from your router should go to that. Then you use that to send the appropriate traffic to the appropriate server based on whatever rules you want to apply. (e.g. siteone.mydomain.com goes to server 1, sitetwo.mydomain.com goes to server 2, or mydomain.com/siteone goes to server 1, etc.).
I also would love to know what the subculture was.
But IMO no, you’re not immature. I think it’s only natural.
Personally, I get sad just hearing stories like this. About subcultures, or communities, or groups, or websites, or games, that people used to love and get joy out of no longer being around because they died or faded away over time. That sense of loss makes me sad even when I had nothing to do with the community.
We’re on Lemmy. A not insignificant percentage of the crowd are tankies.
