You’re not being annoying as a person ☺️🫂 I just mean that there’s a lot of posting with like a link to the release page of a project in GitHub and the title just says “Software X version Y released” and no more info.

Sometimes it can be really difficult to understand what the software is or why we should be interested in it, or even this release in particular.

But I believe you at least posted what you found interesting about this release, in the description. 👍 That’s great! I didn’t mean you were the one release dumping, I just meant it’s annoying when it does happen. 😁

Take care!

Surely that’s the same product being referenced by this project? The API is being used by this project, to interact with Subsonic, the media server. No?

I’m assuming this: https://www.subsonic.org/pages/index.jsp

Release dumping is a real issue on Lemmy. It’s quite annoying. But at least this info was readily available in the README.

Tempus is an open-source and lightweight music client for Subsonic, designed and built natively for Android.

With the old style hobs, usually each heater has 6, 9, or 12 steps.

These induction hobs we have have 14 steps plus a P(ower) step for extremely fast heating, for a total of 15 steps. It’s even more granular than before, even if the highest steps are hotter than the old style hobs. 🙂👍

Induction hobs are wonderful. 🙂 Boiling a full pot of water is just a few minutes or less depending on size.

Frying pans are hot enough to start frying within seconds (like 10–20 seconds).

Highly recommend it if you ever have the opportunity to switch from the ancient style hobs.

Ya-huh?

Absolutely insane. I hope he doesn’t own a weapon.

It’s brutal. I’m very lucky I wasn’t. Both my younger half brothers are.

Man, we really can’t have nice things in the 2020s, can we.

Did they take away the ability to make servers?

No no, that would be crazy. It didn’t seem to even be a Nitro feature. You can just make a server for free, still.

I don’t use it for anything else than communication while gaming.

This is the way.

I just made my own server right when Discord came out and invited my friends. Very curated, only for us. I am also the lord of it, which is a bonus lol.

I also learned from TV, mainly Friends, Scrubs, Family Guy, and similar, with and without subtitles. Then had a gf/wife for twelve years who was native English speaking from across the pond.

I’m good with math and music, and such people tend to also pick up languages easily, or so I’ve understood. I would say I speak and write at a native level though thanks to being with that woman for so many years and communicating with her in English, and doing daily communication online in English for decades now.

Also having a curiosity where I look up words I don’t know, or when I see new words. And I’m interested in a lot of fields where there’s a lot of advanced lingo which also helps. People I listen to are well spoken and good with words, which inspires me.

So I guess all these things combined made me quite proficient. 🤷‍♂️

Much better 👌🎯

Hon hon, oui oui

I’m quite interested in literally every release of Nextcloud, Firefox,Flatpak, Docker, Invidious, Redlib and Nvidia (partially) open source driver, based on my own use case.

Then the natural thing for you to do is to subscribe to releases of those things where they are announced, and not hope someone posts them here, right? And everyone who has the same interest should do the same, or perhaps subscribe to the communities of those specific software, if they’re fine with maybe missing a release announcement.

The fact that an open source software, I’m interested in, is getting regular updates, and not getting abandoned is quite special to me.

Okay, cool, then that’s a post right there. That’s a post. That might be an opinion you want to share. You see?

That’s the point I’m trying to make is that we are in a community of people here, and just dumping release logs becomes noise if there’s nothing to talk about.

“Just scroll past it and ignore it.” The thing with that is that it’s not a passive action! It’s something I have to do actively and consciously. And doing that so many times a day becomes annoying. And it makes me want to leave communities that otherwise have lots of interesting posts and people, if you disregard the release dumps.

Just to be clear, unless there is a specific rule enforced in this forum, your opinion and my opinion are equally valid.

To be perfectly clear, that’s exactly what I’m looking for. That’s the type of rule a lot of us wish was in place in these communities.

You don’t need to drag other in, just to prove your argument. Your own opinion should be good enough.

I’m not trying to “prove” my point. I’m trying to make you have more empathy and respect your surroundings by showing you a lot of people have the same feelings I have. 🤷‍♂️ These types of posts become exhausting if I want to continue to be in these communities.

So do with that information what you will. That’s all I’ll say on it. Remember, you didn’t do anything “wrong”, as you know. We’re just looking for a bit “more”—a reason to click, to interact, with you. If there’s no description in the post, there’s no motivation.

Have a good one. 🤟

Very good, I like it! 🙂

If you are not interested in the same software or not intended to use it or not using it currently, feel free to skip the post.

I disagree with everything, but let’s focus on the quote here. It’s not that simple! I might use the software, and I would be interested in a new release if it had something exciting. But a lot of releases do not.

The very fact that “software X version Y released!” is posted here signals to me that there’s something special that you are reacting to.

It’s clear to me that you are just release dumping here though. It contributes to the noise of the community, in my personal opinion. (And in my experience, lots of people agree.)
