Removal of piracy communities
  • This is why Lemmy won't grow, a lot of instances are forcing their users to create another account on other instances, this was my third account due to the blocking of some instances like this...

  • The name is everything
  • Yes, this seems to be super common here in Lemmy...

  • Lemmy rn
  • Lemmy rn
  • Lemmy rn
  • Lemmy rn
  • I've been here for more than 2 weeks, what happened last 2 days?

    EDIT: Wow! Using Thunder with a lemmy.world account is really a problem with that timeouts, my comment was sent 4 times...

  • Actual picture of /u/spaz after chat gpt bots were found making pro-reddit comments in /r/programming
  • It is a reality spez ordered his employees to make propaganda against the protest of the communities and mods who decided to protest, so while some of them were at it, the team of developers made bots to support.

  • **this seems to be the theme of the season mateys**
  • Forced ads? No YouTube then.

  • **this seems to be the theme of the season mateys**
  • Ublock Origin is working for now.

  • Third party Reddit apps just got canned.
  • I'm using Jerboa and have been testing Thunder since yesterday, not bad, but still a bit limited, we need to be patient and give the developers some time, there are already like 10 apps and a couple of forks of third party Reddit apps in active development.

  • This community is great!
  • I'm generally happy with my migration to Lemmy, it's true that some communities that I was following on Reddit are missing, but little by little alternatives are appearing and that's cool.

    It still bothers me a bit how instances can block other instances making the user have to create another account on another instance to see and interact with some communities (lemmy.world has blocked lemmit.online for example, which is an instance whose bot republished Reddit content on the respective community and sometimes there are interesting posts that aren't on Lemmy, a solution would be to simply block that instance from showing posts in "All" and "Local" but allow people to still subscribe to them and see them in their own feed), but I'm glad they usually do it with toxic instances and it's not the norm.

    And in general lemmings are less toxic (for now...).

    Oh, and thanks to people like you, who had the balls to migrate, things are easier here thanks to all of you.

  • the API changes occur tomorrow, gentlemen, it's been an honor (inb4 Lemmy completely crashes)
  • Really? Well, now I'm a bit dissappointed XD

    But it's not a problem if he won't use it, I hope someone makes a fork to support Lemmy then.

  • Brace Yourselves
  • I'm one of them (created this account 10 days ago, but had another one from 15 days ago when I finally decided to join Lemmy and wanted to test this, the other one is from an instance which has some blocked instances, so I came to Lemmy.world), I hope Lemmy grows a lot, not to compete with Reddit, but to build a big and diverse community where we don't need anything from Reddit (interesting and informative posts, guides, tutorials, etc for example).

  • YSK: You can view upvote and downvote information through kbin
  • I think the same, but it won't be fixed since that's how activitypub works: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3291

    Kbin dev said it won't fix this as it wouldn't be easy (one user proposed to hide votes for Kbin when posts and comments come from Lemmy): https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/3

    The problem here is how Kbin handles the information obtained from Lemmy, I guess one way to solve this could be to block interoperability between Lemmy and Kbin.

  • YSK: You can view upvote and downvote information through kbin
  • That's interesting, I didn't know it, it could also be a bit dangerous for toxic users.

  • YSK: You can view upvote and downvote information through kbin
  • Is it the same for Lemmy?

    Or for Kbin users when they visit Lemmy?
