I wouldn’t do this personally, but if I did, I think I’d at least pipe the results to head -n 1
to only act on the first result.

Anything from https://lemmon.website is me too.

‘subscribe to anything’ is handy, too. I’m subscribed to this post, for instance, so get notifications of new top-level comments.
Please use your mander account to inform OP that their instance is wildly behind .world - see here
The delay and eventual deletion of comments and votes will have an obvious effect on mander’s “hot” and “active” algos.
If you look at this post on mander, it’s not got any of the comments, so there’s no point anyone using a .world community to answer OP’s question.
That’s kinda funny, in a way - unsophisticated prevention for an unsophisticated attack.
Everyone trying to use the Internet normally suffers due to this kind of stuff.
You’re right about the cause: Lemmy’s front-end isn’t giving its backend enough time to do everything it needs to do for an unfamiliar commentary.
It works better if you copy / paste the link into Search. MBin effectively redirects all these links to its Search anyway, so maybe that’s an option.
lemm.ee have upp’d to 0.19.4, and presumably turned on the Image Proxying thing - this is what I get for: https://lemm.ee/post/34040618

I’ve had that problem too (messing around with test instances) - for anyone else wondering why: it’s because the RSA keypair for me@mydomain has changed, and remote instances fail to validate message headers signed with the new private key, because they’re still using their copy of an old public key.
That’s great to hear. There’s zero API at the moment though, let alone a stable one. PieFed is a monolith, without the backend / front-end split that necessitates an API.
It easy to add one, pending the addition of some missing features and a code reorganization that needs to happen anyway. At that point, hopefully some interested app developers will also be involved, to shape the API into something they may wish that other app’s APIs were like.
It seems to be quite a lot for the server it’s hosted on though (which is not the snappiest). There are, of course, still areas in the world where - for one reason or another - people still are effectively on dial-up speed-wise.
Buster should turn their attention to the size of the images uploaded to servers like this: 1.1M is arguably overkill for this one.
That’s the book I was referring to, yep.
I think most bread that’s available to buy is actually junk. Even the ‘wholemeal’ stuff, which itself obfuscates what you actually want: wholegrain. Ideally, the carbs percentage shouldn’t be more than 5 times the fibre percentage (according to the ‘How not to die’ book), but I’ve found that very little that actually meets that.
This is why people can become obese without understanding why: the over-processing of food considered as staples.
This isn’t really my area, but I’ll have a crack. From what I understand, Lemmy uses the ‘meta og:image’ tag to grab a thumbnail. Inspecting your site, I can see that that tag is in the html head. However, if you just ‘curl’ the URL, then it isn’t in the results. Using ‘curl’ for URLs from sites that are known to work in terms of generating thumbnails (theguardian and bbc), the tag is visible in the result.
This suggests that your site is using further scripting on page load to provide the meta tags, whereas perhaps Lemmy can only get them if they are provided immediately. There are other sites (like Reuters), who use additional scripting, that Lemmy is unable to get thumbnails for also (e.g. https://lemmy.world/post/16203031)
There seems to be some decent channels that are local to that instance (some PeerTube integration was recently added to PieFed, so I’m going by the list on this post ). From there, you can watch stuff from other instances, if course.
I think it’s more just for discovery. They provide a guide here which recommends https://tilvids.com/ as a PeerTube instance you can sign up with.
https://fedi.video/ has organised a bunch of channels into playlists that has some crossover with your topic list.
It probably is. I’d tried Mastodon but found myself not going back. Phanpy re-invigorated my interest in it.
Thanks for this. I tried to watch a video from ‘shifter’ but there never seems to be enough bandwidth (even on 360p). I can see other people have managed though, so maybe it’s a location thing (I’m in the UK)
Accounts (which contain the private key that signs the headers in your posts, and the public key to verify) are required for ActivityPub to work.
It depends. It seems like Lemmy batches up its activity to send to remote instances - so, per instance, it sleeps for a bit, then sends what it has. If both a Create and an Update are in the same batch, Lemmy just sends the Update. If they don’t happen to be in the same batch though, it sends both activities.
