Presumably this is due to recent actions regarding adblockers over at Youtube....
Here’s the thing. I’m a mod for a small-time community for a niche interest, !castles I’m also on Mastodon, and was before my Reddit exodus. I follow #castles as well as a few other related topics on Matsodon, so I get quality toots, such as this: mastodon.scot/, that I wish I could just crosspost over to my community....
So, Lemmy is sometime missing content. I don’t regret switching from Reddit to Lemmy but, expecially for niche communities, the content isn’t always here....
I’m using Memmy but trying to read comments in my notifications crashes the app half the time and seems like it’s not getting updates....
I’ve been seeing a lot of users from alien.top commenting in various threads (mainly sports) lately. They only caught my attention because they are all flagged as bots and I typically manually block most bots (not all because there are some I like). For every one of them their entire post history consists of 1-2 comments or...

Hello everyone,...

Usually, when you open a website, that site might be pulling live data from somewhere, but it’s from a database on the same server. If you click a Fediverse link, and no-one else from your instance has already done so, it seems like your instance has to contact a remote site, pull the data and render it, in the same timeframe...

It not only have problems with CSEM (the real-life stuff), but there are now bots spamming it and Twitter made reporting it a chore....
Looking for journalists, researchers, professionals, creators, etc....
What I mean is someone sets up a new community, blasts it with a bunch of content to get things started, or sets up a new community bot that makes 20 posts and every other post in my feed is that community. Usually with 1 or 2 votes each and no comments. No matter what way I sort I see this....
Since big part of the web is drowning in AI junk, including Reddit, is there a good search engine to find answers in the fediverse?
Before you start throwing 💩 , hear me out…...
I saw this post from !twoxchromosomes, and I wanted to share it here to get more discussion because it is important.
