There have been multiple accounts created with the sole purpose of posting advertisement posts or replies containing unsolicited advertising.
Accounts which solely post advertisements, or persistently post them may be terminated.
Having accounts in different Mastodon instances, for example, allows you to see more of Mastodon, because not all servers federate with the other servers, and some servers will recommend you different accounts, or will only partially show you posts from accounts on other servers. It also allows you to test out each one of those...
Does anyone know if Lemmy automatically strips exif data from images posted?...
Can’t believe I ignored this series for years. The first game has aged a bit since it was released in 2011, and the sequel in 2019 has held up and is loads of fun....
Long love, long live, Lemmy!!!
I have an A53, running Android 13. I’ve recently noticed that if I uninstall an app and the reinstall it, it still has login credentials. That leads me to believe that uninstall isn’t really deleting all the associated data....
Just one more day to get through before the weekend. Keeping a low profile, or have a full day of meetings?...
Hi all,...
We’re about to enter another Reddit mass migration phase starting tonight. We’ve already attracted the users most actively engaged with the protests and Reddit’s changes—users who are driven enough to put in the effort to grow the Fediverse....
I’ve played Diablo 1 and world of Warcraft which is slightly similar, but just tried d3 a week ago. I play most games on my switch, I grabbed the eternal edition a while back. The spec system looks really basic, but it gets fairly deep with runes and legendary items. What amazes me the most is the speed, there are a ton of...
I do like myself a good Japanese game every once in a while, but right now I'm looking for other PS1 games made outside of Japan that are still very fun to play.
Curious what terminal emulators people use/recommend? I’m using Alacritty myself, but want to try other ones
This might be a stupid question but given (my brief understanding of) how the fediverse works, would a fediverse version of a messaging app work? As a potential WhatsApp or Telegram replacement? Or is there one already?
I’m hoping to design a logo that that is recognizable as both the archtype of healer from the context of gaming; but also as a symbol for the irl field of medicine....
I created a community c/teleffusion and I've created two posts there (https://lemmy.world/post/812263 & https://lemmy.world/post/774004) yet when I go to the 'homepage' for the community... no posts show up? => https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/779092f8-5559-4693-be80-b505771c7112.png...
Title pretty much self-explanatory!...
I’m very new here but I decided to check and compare the posts in a community on lemmy.world (where I have my account) and that same community on the instance where it resides and the posts were almost all completely different! Is that how it’s supposed to work or are they supposed to be synced? Sorry if this is a noob...
...feedback welcome! 🙃
I think we can defederate that company's name from our personal vocabulary instances.
The more that content on the web is “locked down” with more stringent API requests and identity verification, e.g. Twitter, the more I wonder if I should be archiving every single HTTP request my browser makes. Or, rather, I wonder if in the future there will be an Archive Team style decentralized network of hoarders who, as...
I can’t recall which exact thread it was, but I was reading a book recommendation thread and the book “A Year in the Life Of Ancient Greece” by Philip Matyszak was recommended. I enjoyed learning about ancient Greece in the past and this seemed manageable (under 300 pages), so I read it over the course of this last week....
I want to be clear on my bias here: I firmly believe that open source would not be a ‘thing’ if it weren’t for Red Hat. Linus Torvalds himself once said (albeit 10 years ago) that the shares he received from Red Hat before their IPO was ‘his only big Linux payout’. I don’t think anyone would disagree with the...
I’m putting this together because I posted a while ago about using IRC to acquire ebooks on Reddit, and there was a metric shit ton of interest from others in learning how to do it. Much of this info is available on the net, but it can be difficult to track down if you don’t know exactly what to look for....
if you want to post links or discuss Reddit over the next while, please localize it to this thread in order to keep things tidy, thanks! (a more formal body may be forthcoming, but that'll come in the morning if so)
It has been years since I have installed a custom rom on my device....
