I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.

The format of the post also looked similar to spam posts at first glance. A lot of them are pushing AI things
While this won’t be the case with everyone, it was mentioned a few times in a post I made here a long while back
I’m a woman, and make no attempt to hide that fact in my posts. That said, I also don’t personally have much interest in talking about being a woman, so don’t sub to any of those places you linked.
Over on Reddit I just sort of let people assume I was male a lot of the time, since it wasn’t really relevant to what we were talking about. But from the start on Lemmy I’ve made sure to call out incorrect assumptions, downvote and give a talking to people stereotyping or being misogynistic, etc etc. And the more of us (of all genders) that make that same decision, the better things get
This does happen with comments sometimes. I go into a post and someone has already eloquently said what I would have said (often better than I would have). So I upvote it and move along
I think it could work great on a dating profile. It’s unique, memorable, and a conversation starter for the apps that require comments when liking
Maybe not as the first image, but anywhere else. Pair it with a witty caption
So while this isn’t the cause in your case, it is possible to sticky things to the main feed. It’s done by admins, and for example lemmy.ca has a welcome post stickied right now:
I think it’s a federation bug. That post is on https://community.nodebb.org/, which isn’t a Lemmy instance but actually a different software.
Which in itself is cool! There are a few projects being worked on right now to make traditional forums compatible with activity pub. The idea being that someday you’ll be able to follow and post in official support forums for things right from your Lemmy account.
But right now, it might be causing some weird federation bug. Maybe the date of the post shows up to Lemmy as sometime in the future and so it’s always the “newest” post (or something similar)?
Some brainstorming from me:
Alternatively, what would a recycling/conversion program look like?
Manually downloading HTML posts would be more difficult, but it might be possible by parsing the data export you can download from Facebook
Oh interesting, I didn’t know that was a thing
Quoting from: https://www.reddit.com/r/synology/comments/1bapfkl
The armv8 architecture which the DS218 uses is supported by Container Manager, Synology just put a hardcoded config into the official package to exclude certain models from installing it:
exclude_model="synology_rtd1296_ds118 synology_rtd1296_ds218 synology_rtd1296_ds218play synology_rtd1296_ds418 synology_rtd1296_ds418j synology_armada37xx_ds119j synology_rtd1296_rs819"
Pretty sure the https://github.com/007revad/ContainerManager_for_all_armv8 linked above just removes the hardcoded exclusion and doesn’t need to change anything else to get it to work.
If that workaround looks shady, you might be better off just installing docker directly
Which Synology NAS is it, and can you install Container Manager on it? That might be the simplest option since your files are already on that device. There should be lots of guides out there for it.
Container Manager is basically a worse DockGE / Portainer by Synology. It should be sufficient for pasting in the Jellyfin docker compose, but if you wanted you could also spin up DockGE/Portainer first and do it through that interface (or SSH into the NAS and do it all with the command line)
So the setup would be
EDIT: Looks like there are official guides for it, as well as lots of videos on YouTube: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/installation/synology/
I gather Plex is at least semi-commercial while Jellyfin is the open source but worse option.
I haven’t used Plex enough to judge, but from the comments I’ve seen it seems that Jellyfin is now on par with or better than Plex. There was also some news recently about Plex moving more core features (remote playback?) to the paid plans, so I imagine there will be more people moving over soon.
There are a lot of options for client side apps, official and unofficial, so you might be able to find something specific to your setup
Facebook/Meta made itself to be the de facto method for accessing the internet in the region, and then refused to regulate its engagement-based algorithm as it fueled violence and unrest in the region
Facebook owner Meta’s dangerous algorithms and reckless pursuit of profit substantially contributed to the atrocities perpetrated by the Myanmar military against the Rohingya people in 2017, Amnesty International said in a new report published today.
The Social Atrocity: Meta and the right to remedy for the Rohingya, details how Meta knew or should have known that Facebook’s algorithmic systems were supercharging the spread of harmful anti-Rohingya content in Myanmar, but the company still failed to act.
“In 2017, the Rohingya were killed, tortured, raped, and displaced in the thousands as part of the Myanmar security forces’ campaign of ethnic cleansing. In the months and years leading up to the atrocities, Facebook’s algorithms were intensifying a storm of hatred against the Rohingya which contributed to real-world violence,” said Agnès Callamard, Amnesty International’s Secretary General.

If you have a moment, do you have any foods from Burma that you would recommend we try someday?
Maybe Snapchat
I’ve always heard of snapchat being the worst of them all, so maybe it depends on what kind of content you follow?
I with the Pixelfed creator would just focus on Pixelfed, I use that and it’s a total win, just needs some kinks worked out and more popularity.
Now that they have some funding and are building up a small team, it might let them focus on a few things at once. I agree though that it won’t replace Tiktok. At this point, doomscrolling is a psychological addiction that takes effort to move away from.
There’s the good-karma-kit, which is a Docker compose bundle of some popular projects: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/good-karma-kit
It could act as a list to go off of, if you don’t want to host all of them. The link has more info on each, as well as which ones are non-profit / for-profit

No worries! Thank you for including all that, and for taking the time to talk to people.
I find it silly how, in the same thread,
You’ve likely helped a lot of people, don’t worry about the silly ones :)
Can you link these as you see fit, maybe instead of the infographic? They respond to some of the common ‘criticisms’

Also I don’t think recommending one instance is the way to go, even if it gets people to join. Causing centralization harms us in the long run.

Here is how we approached it
“Hey look! It’s the first fish to walk on land”
*stomps
“You saw it, it was coming right at us”
There are a few
I’ve been playing with LemmySchedule to schedule out posts ahead of time. This can be good if you want to sit down once and queue a number of posts to go out over the course of a few hours, or if you want to make recurring discussion threads (which work great for building up a community slowly). For example, I’m testing it out with another account here: @[email protected]
There is also @[email protected], which you can set up to post from RSS feeds. This sounds closest to what you want to do from the other thread. The instructions are here: https://rss.ponder.cat/post/34622. For example, I have it set up to post from a youtube channel in [email protected]
There may be others out there :)
Instead of killing it, what about creating an official sister community here, and encouraging people to use it. Being under the same moderation and having the same rules can go a long way towards establishing that trust. While reddit still won’t like it, it would look terrible on them if they tried to stop it.
DDG and Brave were pushed as “censorship free” alternatives, back when I was looking into covid disinformation, because the very obviously fake websites would sometimes rank higher on them
There may be more to it though
If it’s a public list, feel free to share it on [email protected] :)
