I blame every gray hair on Jenkins Pipeline’s so-called DSL, a.k.a. Groovy.
You’d have to pay me a seven-figure salary to work with that again.

andrew_s , to fediverse in If you use Mbin, what's the difference between a thread and a post?
@andrew_s@piefed.social avatar

I'm guessing it's an artifact of them supporting both platforms like Lemmy (who's users make Threads and Comments in Magazines) and platforms like Mastodon (who's users make Posts and Replies in Microblogs).

If you don't like that, you're really not going to like what they call downvotes ...

They call them 'reduces'

Sterile_Technique ,
@Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world avatar

Well you were right. That definitely rubs the wrong way lol.

Thank you!

Lost_My_Mind OP ,

Ew.

WHO thought that was the right term??? Like was some guy using a yellow notepad and putting the bad ideas on the right, and the good ideas on the left, and “reduces” is the one that they landed on??? How bad were the other options???

Chozo ,

The original Kbin dev is Polish, so English is likely a second language for him. Also, it's still very early in development, so a lot of terminology put in use are likely placeholders until something more natural-sounding could be finalized.

nawordar ,

Also, it is inspired by a Polish service, Wykop which developed its specific language

kate ,

do they have another name for upvotes too?

andrew_s ,
@andrew_s@piefed.social avatar

Yeah - if you don't like a post you 'reduce' it, and if you do then you 'thicken' it.

Only kidding: they use 'favourites'

@Coelacanth@feddit.nu avatar

I’ve said it before and caught flak but I’ll say it again: I really, truly hate the naming conventions Kbin introduced. “Reduces” is maybe the worst offender but “magazines” too is a completely nonsensical name for communities.

mkuznetsoff , to asklemmy in What is an achievement in life that you're proud of?

Graduated high school with a 5.0 to go to college to major in sysadmin

Help a non American, is 5.0 good or bad? What’s the range you can get?

misericordiae , to fediverse in If you use Mbin, what's the difference between a thread and a post?

Iirc from my time on kbin, posts are for the “microblog” part, i.e. the part that interacts with mastodon.

Lost_My_Mind OP ,

Oh. If thats the case, Mbin seems like it’s laid out really smart. It just needs to use a kind of branded name for mastodon. Kind of like how “twitter” had “tweets”, and “X” has “racist bullshit”. Well maybe Mastodon could have “Snouts”. Or someone smarter can think of a better word for Mastodon noises.

But whatever Mastodon settles on, thats what Mbin should call them. “Magazines” should just be “Communities”. And “Threads” should just be “Posts”.

And what we know as “Posts” would be called “Snouts”.

can ,

Mastodon has “toots”

Lost_My_Mind OP ,

…toots? Like farts with a cute name?

GregorGizeh ,

Twitter had a tweeting bird. Mastodon has a, well, tooting mastodon.

And Xitter fittingly has X-cretements.

myersguy , to piracy in Anyone else having constant trouble with Deluge and brand new torrent releases?

I know it’s of very little help, but I have not seen this issue, and I’ve been using Deluge for years (not automated via the are suite, however)

It would do you well to find out what error it is throwing (check logs). Would be much easier to diagnose if you knew the actual issue.

collapse_already , to asklemmy in In your opinion how do countries get rid of "terrorists" either within our outside?

Terrorism is an inchoate concept. History is written by the victors. American terrorists dumped tea in Boston Harbor, but they were freedom fighters and revolutionaries because they prevailed. On the flip side, Israel killed a terrorist. How do I know they were a terrorist? Because Israel wouldn’t have killed them otherwise.

Overall, other responders have good answers - equal rights, freedoms, and opportunities. Plenty of bread and circuses. I can’t be motivated to be a terrorist because I would sacrifice too much changing the status quo.

No, it's from a game called Total Distortion.
