  • Star Citizen Mini-Game - Hyper Vanguard Force

  • YSK: Lemmy DOES have a karma system

  • This is already possible on a per-server basis. Beehaw already does this.

    It would be interesting to make it a per-community feature though.

  • Fediverse situation right now

  • Except that your downvotes are public and then you'll just be accused of being a Nazi.

    New Evocati Invites Are Being Sent Out

  • Why do some posts and communities not show up on all instances?

  • Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but once an instance has been defederated with another, you will not be able to see posts from users associated with that instance, even if they post into a community that you are federated with.

  • Lemmy Federation Architecture Change Proposal

  • A valid concern for sure. An issue we needed to overcome when the internet was still young and an issue that will absolutely affect Lemmy as it continues to grow.

  • Nuking my 12yr/100k karma Reddit Account.

  • Thanks for pointing out that there may be more to this, I dug into it a bit more. A few users reported that their comments/posts were being restored:

    @shindig1457@lemmy.world https://lemmy.ml/post/1290893

    @Beardliest@lemmy.world https://lemmy.ml/comment/690447

    It looks like it could be related to issues with Powerdelete, or else issues with being able to delete comments while a sub is/was set to private. https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/34112/Updated-Reddit-is-quietly-restoring-deleted-AND-overwritten-posts-and

    However, there is also a user that reported that their manually deleted posts came back @sukarn@mstdn.social https://mstdn.social/@sukarn/110553511800817413 Which could be related to Reddit performing maintenance on the servers.

    Either way it's probably worth it to hold onto your account for a while longer to verify that there weren't any issues with your posts/comments being deleted.

  • Redditors brigading against Lemmy

  • So I can, so I can

  • YSK: The term "Genuine Leather", it is not to reassure you that their product is made of leather, rather its the name of the lowest grade of leather a company can use.

  • Personally I prefer soymilk and almond milk for cereal, but I'll stick to regular milk products for most sauces/cooking.

  • Nuking my 12yr/100k karma Reddit Account.

  • I wouldn't delete your account (in case Reddit tries to replace the deleted comments as they have been doing). But I would unsubscribe from every subreddit.

    Additionally, if you have any very useful comments/posts, repost them to Lemmy and then edit them to leave some information that will redirect users to your posts in Lemmy. That way good information isn't lost and you'll help to slowly drive users towards Lemmy over time.

  • You can always rely on grandma

  • Anyone else seeing posts from unrelated communities showing in your feed when you're reading a specific community?

  • Yes, refreshing the page fixes it. Ive even had some posts load with the comments from a different post. Again, refreshing fixes this.

  • Federation, Defederation, and You - FAQ and Megathread

  • Now when you defederate, this results in content to be no longer shared. It didn’t reverse any previous sharing or posts, it just stops the information from flowing with the selected instance. This only impacts the site’s that are called out.

    I thought I'd heard that

  • Reddit isn't letting me delete my account, is it just me with this error message?

  • I would argue that if you have any posts/comments with very helpful/popular content, repost it in Lemmy, then edit the Reddit post/comment to point to your Lemmy copy.

    It won't work for everything that you've posted/commented, but if you pick out the biggest things it will help bring additional content to Lemmy, and hopefully some more users as well.

  • Reddit may be bringing back deleted comments

  • Right, but how would they handle the case where personally identifiable information could be in the text itself?

    Someone could tell a very descriptive story with enough detail that you can figure out who it is, or maybe someone who knows enough of the story in real life could figure out exactly who it was that made the comment?

    For example, someone makes a comment with a long story and in there they include something like, "I'm Karen and I work at the restaurant where that [insert some major news story here...]". People make mistakes all the time and they might want to quickly delete that information.

    Not only that, if you look at enough of someone's comment history you can start figuring out a lot of information about that person. In one comment they might mention the city they live in, in another they might mention the name of the business they work at, somewhere else you figure out their gender, in some cases they may even post a picture of themselves.

    Edit: fixed formatting where some text was hidden.

    CitizenCon Info Updated - Oct 21-22 at the LA Convention Center

  • Are the diablos any good?

  • You have to remember that this game came out a long time ago, it had many features at the time that set it above other games.

    It had a good storyline, multiplayer, maps that would change every time you logged in (multiplayer), the ability to be powerful after spending a lot of time in the game (and if you saw anyone with a rare/cool looking armor you know they worked for it, there were no lootbox mechanics where you could just pay money for it). And of course... there is no cow level ;) The skill tree allowed for tons of different abilities and combos, or you could grind away at a single skill and become godly with it.

    You may not recognize the appeal to the game now just because so many of the mechanics have been copied and implemented in countless other games since then.

  • Is lemmy.world more active than lemmy.ml?

  • I'm pretty new here. I'd say the concept is the same in the sense that they are each their own community run by their own moderators. However, the all powerful Admins are those in control of the instance.

    One interesting example is that Beehaw has started making "Bee themed" community icons which makes it easy to tell when you're looking at one of the communities hosted on their instance.

    Someone on Lemmy.world could have another community with the exact same name, you just have to pay attention to the end (and having themed icons also helps).

    But it goes even a little farther than that. We can end up with Mastadon (twitter equivalent) users who are also able to comment in these communities. I don't think its working in reverse yet (at least not for Lemmy.ml accounts).

  • Tense exchange between a streamer and Twitch director speaks to the state of streamer-platform relationships

  • Wasn't there also some drama recently over Twitch trying to take away/banning sponsorships from the streamers?
