How does Lemmy (Mander in particular) sort "hot" and "active" posts?
Sorry if this seems like a silly question but I have noticed over the last few months my feed(?) has started to act odd....
What would you bring to an adult show and tell?

[Urgent] How do you know your computer or phone isn't spying on you ?
This maybe a dumb question but i became paranoid all of a sudden and wanted some answers because i can’t find it anywhere else nor can i sleep without it. Like even if i did flash linux on a lets say amd laptop couldn’t the chip itself be spying on me ? Also i understand bootloaders are stored or rom is there a way to know...
Are search engines, like Google, relevant at all anymore? Why use them? A relevant debate. It's not 2010 anymore.
Why would something like Google search possibly be irrelevant?...
Why were so many people believers in the conspiracy that 9/11 was an inside job
When Al-Qaeda themselves claimed responsibility, even with overwhelming evidence aside? Why were so many people still reluctant, I was researching about this stuff and was shocked to see people who I respect a lot believe in this
[Meta] There seems to be a downvoting bot around here. Every thread and every single comment has at least one downvote. Is there any way to fix this?
60% of Lemmy-instances blocks Threads.net (lemmy.sambands.net)
Based on data from fedipact.veganism.social it seems that the majority of instances blocks threads.net. I’m sure there’s Lemmy instances with either approach that have slipped through the cracks as the list is a work in progress....
what is your favorite lemmy instance?
ngl I may prefer lemm.ee, just saying
Should AI images be copyrightable?
I’ve heard arguments for both sides and i think it’s more complicated then simply yes or no. what do you guys think?

App to schedule posts on Lemmy (schedule.lemmings.world)
I’ve made an app that makes it possible to schedule a post in Lemmy at an arbitrary time. It’s available at schedule.lemmings.world and can be used by people from any instance....
Linux Best Practices (lemmy.world)
Is there a list of instances that support free speech?
How much control/access does my instance owner haver over my account?
I noticed that there were some accounts that were hijacked by the instance owners. All the posts from that user were then edited to say what happened....
As badly described as possible, what is your favorite video game?
Is it worth closing the lid on a toilet before flushing?
This seems like something that should be true, but I think I remember seeing a Mythbusters episode where they decided it didn't make a difference. That show was more about entertainment than science, so I wondered if there was a more rigorous study done? I've definitely seen splashes of water(?) come out from flushes so that...
Maybe later... how about never, you fucks?
It is endlessly frustrating that companies have universally decided that they won’t let people say “no” to stuff, ever. There are no longer options to reject stupid-ass new “features”, only postponement until next time you open the app/website/program. They’ll continue pestering you for the rest of your life. I...
Is there anything that only the rich can currently afford but that everyone will have in the future?
When the very first cars were built, only the rich could afford it, but now a large part of the population (in developed countries) has one or more....
My Opinion: NewPipe, Piped, Invidious, etc's days are numbered.
With Reddit shutting down its API setting a precedent in the corporate tech world (and Reddit was a major outlier in that a ton of their users are technical minded and support third party clients, YouTube does not have that kind of userbase and will not get backlash for it), Twitter doing whatever the fuck they’re doing, and...
Interesting facts about beans (INTERDISCIPLINARY MEGATHREAD)

Mates, today without warning, the reddit royal navy attacked. I've been demoded by the admins. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
A fellow mod informed me that about it as I was laying in bed. Reddit sent a message to the mod team and after 1 hour demoded me. I didn’t even had time to see it, never-mind respond to it....
How are we going to pay for all this?
I’m really enjoying lemmy. I think we’ve got some growing pains in UI/UX and we’re missing some key features (like community migration and actual redundancy). But how are we going to collectively pay for this? I saw an (unverified) post that Reddit received 400M dollars from ads last year. Lemmy isn’t going to be free....
How have you optimized your Pi-hole?
A few months ago I set up a Pi-hole at home. I tried to create a decent blacklist by first adding some regexes I found online and then doing some manual optimization by finding ads and blocking the ad requester through the queries page. But in the end it did not work so well. I still get a lot of YouTube ads, for example. So I...
