Hot take: developing an open source For You algorithm for mastodon that shows you posts based on your likes inbetween every other chronological post would be great

If we had an open source algorithm for Mastodon/Pixelfed that learned based on the words in the post and image/video we could have a Following + For You feed that showed you all the posts from people you follow and you could choose to see, say, 1 recommended For You post after every 3 posts from your Following feed. With the...

Where to get support for Actual Budget?

I am having an issue importing QFX transactions and getting a message saying “No transactions found” despite seeing 4 transactions in the file. But, I can’t seem to find a place to ask for help on this. Discussions on GitHub are archived, slack is inactive and the subreddit has been locked.

Is the Fediverse (or thrediverse specifically) going to follow the way of the old web?

People using their communities to link to like communities because the fediverse/thrediverse is so vast and it’s not as easy to navigate? Maybe, eventually finding a way to consistently open links to other instances/services in a way that opens it in your preferred instance/service (some sort of protocol or extension). Our...

Proper method to share and access lemmy links that avoids login problems?

It often happens that a given lemmy link didn’t match with my own login from another instance. This causes troubles to comment and participate in the thread. This is what I have learned so far. Is there a better method of doing this? Browser extension suggestions are welcome....

So I was browsing SteamDB.info looking at the various games on sale when I noticed there were a bunch of games (usually from the publisher Hede, but there’s quite a few others) listed as having a discount in the high nineties, yet still costing in the neighborhood of 30-50 dollars. Even odder when I go to the game’s Steam,...

Arch Linux | A Big Visual Studio Code C# Programming Issue

I tried to use Visual Studio Code a few times. One time, I encountered an error related to OmniSharp, though I don’t remember the exact details. However, Python worked fine, for example. Then, I reinstalled Arch, and now I’ve decided to try using Visual Studio Code again because I need it to learn programming. Unfortunately,...

Deluge keeps failing downloads to error every few hundred MBs

Hi all! Just this…I have a remote Deluge server I connect to with the Deluge thin client. The Deluge server is connected to all the -arr servers, which add the torrents to download. However a lot of downloads start crapping out every few hundred MBs. They get to speeds of 25MB/s (normal for my current connection), and then...

Do ActivityPub services work over "The Dark Web"/i2p/Tor? More specifically, could one make a sort of "Hidden Fediverse"?

**EDIT (2023-07-31T22:18:52Z):**I have realized that I was not clear in my original intent for this post – it could be interepereted to mean that I am asking whether or not you could access, for example, Lemmy through the Tor browser. This is not what I meant. What I was more alluding to was if it were possible to create a...
