There actually is a TUI client for Lemmy

Oh on that note, would it be helpful to lock and redirect [email protected] to that community?

I would say the main thing is being nice and letting people explore, and providing spaces/communities for people to come back and ask questions when they have them. When people bring up issues or suggest things that they want to see, we shouldn’t crap on what they prefer their online experience to be (ex. preferred algorithms, content they want to block, etc.)

Resources wise, we created this guide and I like to link these two particular pages for fediverse/lemmy. I feel that they help give a high level overview of how things work:

• https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/get-started
• https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/lemmy/for-users/detailed-overview

I think since hobbies are nebulous and hard to compare against each other, you would need to find a study specifically looking at that. Even then, you would only get information on the specific hobbies they looked at.

Maybe you can try looking for data for specific hobbies instead of comparing them against each other? You can probably find rates of books, music, etc.

I have Jellyfin, but I haven’t tried it with music. How does it compare to Navidrome?

For chat, I was thinking something super simple for the weird situations like this. Alternatively, Briar if you’re near the person you want to contact

It makes me wish I was selfhosting more services, music & chat in particular. It wasn’t important enough to set up yet

Is there no way to check the doorbell video locally?

An Amazon employee misconfigures something and now your doorbell doesn’t work

This deserves a post of its own

If they ask for recommendations / alternatives, then I mention it.

I also share links with friends when there’s something relevant or interesting, same as any other social media platform. Usually it’s when there’s a good comment or explanation, else it makes more sense to share the original source

While Voyager has mod tools, I’m not sure if you can create a community in the app.

You might need to do the initial setup on the website: https://sh.itjust.works/create_community

All of this sounds convoluted, but makes sense in my head.

Makes sense to me. I do something similar mainly to avoid tiny scratches on my phone screen. I hadn’t considered coordinating the coat pockets with the pant pocket system, but I might do that too now 😄

This sounds more like a ship of Theseus style question

Is the person with amnesia still the same “person”. I assume the question would also need to enforce the type/extent of the amnesia

Hah

But also it might be good to add a [satire] tag text to the title

Is tailscale running / logged in on those other devices? Does it auto detect the server like it did on the phone?

Imo it might be easier to collaboratively build keyword lists. It’s tedious to tag posts manually, and it becomes impossible to do it effectively after the user base grows past a certain point. You can auto-remove any post that isn’t tagged, but a lot of people dislike that kind of filtering and only a few communities would implement something like that

In case the tags don’t work from Piefed, I’ll try as well

@[email protected]

Yup, and meanwhile a lot of the spam we manually remove after users report it, should be obvious to detect with automated tools. For example, when a “user” is posting the same link in every comment, or posting the same length comment in many unrelated subs 24/7 every few minutes, etc.

it’s annoying

Some perspective from the mod side

The ‘Removed by Anti-Evil’ isn’t a new thing. It used to be the admin side spam/site wide rule breaking content remover.

• It acted like Lemmy’s purge function. When something is removed on Reddit, it’s still visible to mods. Sometimes after something extra awful had been removed, anti-evil would come along and clean it up.

• It would be an indication that something is against site wide rules. If the mods don’t take care of reported content that’s clearly against sitewide rules, and anti-evil has to step in, then it’s a sign that the subreddit might need to be doing more

Recently though it’s been coming along and removing comments before any of the mods can see what the comment was. That makes it hard to take any further action since the mods can’t know what the problem was. So far when that’s happened, the thread had nothing controversial and the user’s history was normal and tame, so I have to assume that the new version of anti-evil has a few screws loose. It’s not even that they’ve raised the threshold for what’s appropriate, since awful content still gets through about equally as often.

The only reason why Reddit’s moderation tooling is considered better than the threadiverse is the standard regex based automod rules. The other reddit tools continue to be hot garbage

It’s a project that’s compiling a map of wifi/cell tower/bluetooth locations for location services. GPS doesn’t work well in some cases (indoors, remote locations, areas with tall buildings) and so big companies have built similar databases to get accurate location information. For the most part, those ones are proprietary / private. This project is intended to be a public / openly licensed version of that, while also processing the data to strip out potentially private information

For sure, I’ll also edit them into the post
