I also had a 6P and it was really great

I wouldn’t buy a phone as wide as the Nexus 6 again, not for myself

I still have my Shamu! It only works while plugged in because the battery lasts about 3 seconds now lol

I wish they still made wide phones instead of just tall phones. My mom uses big font size on her phone, but modern phones are so narrow it’s a bit annoying, she liked the Nexus 6.

I feel like internet users have become so lazy, stubborn, and resistant to change. I’m pretty sure it used to be easier to get people to move to new things like new forums, Xfire, Ventrillo, IRC, ICQ, AIM… people used to try new things

Trending communities: !trendingcommunities@feddit.nl (make sure you enable “Show bot posts” to see here)

If you’re really looking for newly created communities…

sorted by new https://lemmyverse.net/communities?order=published

Lemmy’s built in communities page sorted by new /communities?listingType=All&sort=New&page=1

I guess communities should have an easy way to hide themselves from Local/All feeds

this looks like the same issue https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4744

I’m not sure, you should definitely report that as a bug on the GitHub though

I think it was fixed in 0.18.5 yea, I guess there could be some system to trust other moderators from other instances but then it’s basically the same as it is now lol, where trusting==appointing moderators, really the same thing

defederation is an admin action not a moderator action, and there are much fewer admins than there are moderators, so the workload would be a concern

Doesn’t your suggestion mean that a user from a small instance or their own instance can make a bunch of garbage posts (or even illegal posts) and then a moderator from every single other instance will have to delete their posts separately? That’s a ton of repeated work, and really opens up Lemmy to abuse.

Currently, communities are created and hosted on a single instance, and are moderated by moderators on that instance.

You can be a moderator of communities on different instances, my account here on programming.dev is a moderator of communities on other instances such as lemmy.ml

yea tlnet is perfect, thank you! subscribed

TL.net would be great for esports news https://tl.net/rss/news.xml

if tl is too short for a community name, maybe tl_net or teamliquid_net or something like that

it will be a good source to cross-post from (I wish Lemmy users used cross-posting more)

Yeah I think of downvotes as like micro-moderation, or crowd sourced curation. It’s generally a good feature. They can be annoying sometimes but it’s better than the alternative of bad/spam posts/comments flooding your feed.

Make a Github pull request, examples:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site/pull/347

https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site/pull/354

the instance needs at least 5 active users

Also they probably want to avoid the issue of a user accidentally sliding it all the way to the left and then being unable to use their phone lol, there’d be no way to fix it except finding a dark room (if you were even aware of what happened and why your screen “won’t turn on”)

yea idk, it’s maybe like a fun bonus sometimes, but it’s kinda like trying to put the square peg into the circle hole (where it doesn’t fit, unlike the famous meme video lol)

Unpopular opinion: IDK why people want perfect interop so much, I have a Mastodon account and a Lemmy account, big deal. We’ve got bigger fish to fry than this. The formats are different enough that you’re better off having separate accounts for microblogging and threadiverse.

Interop for similar platforms is a great feature, but for dissimilar platforms I don’t think it’s actually necessary just a novelty. Also I think people try to push this on new users as some big, useful, important feature, but I think it only confuses the new users.

Also I noticed most of the time when people complain about ActivityPub interop issues, it almost always ends up being Mastodon’s fault lol. Probably because they were early to the party and didn’t have to worry about interop and standards much back then. At least I hope it isn’t malicious lol.

I think probably the biggest holdup for 0.19.6 right now looks like https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4983

I subscribed to the issue so I can see its progress
