posting things from the 160+ rss feeds I follow. You should see me post links in two chunks for when im reading stuff, once in the morning and once in the evening ET. If you want some of my sources for certain communities feel free to dm

For old reddit style theres mlmym which fills that niche better (e.g. for you that would be at old.lemmy.world)

Default UI is currently getting overhauled in a bunch of different ways. Lemmy-Leptos for Lemmy itself, and new UIs for Sublinks and Piefed as they get constructed

Tried looking. According to one of the users who posted it its by 0x00 whos the person who made floor 796. All things I can find relating to them are floor 796 related though and can’t find where this was originally posted

Heres floor 796 though if anyones interested floor796.com

TIL about Sublinks, a Java-based alternative to Lemmy's backend (github.com)

Today I learned about Sublinks (here), an open-source project that aims to be a drop-in replacement for the backend of Lemmy, a federated link aggregator and microblogging platform. Sublinks is designed to be initially API-compatible with Lemmy, allowing existing Lemmy clients, such as Lemmy-UI, to integrate seamlessly....

Theres more than just the api repo and pull requests are squashed in some of them making it show as less

API pretty much already has parity, should be done way quicker than that

All lemmy apps are sublinks apps, it has api compatibility

The demo site also isn’t an instance for accounts, its a demo

How do I use this account on lemmy and vice-versa?
Is the upvote of lemmy the same as favorite of mastodon? (they do not sync) if not then what metric are these two uniquely gauged?

Theyre two different softwares with two different apis, you can’t

Lemmy is indexed so can be found on search engines while discord cant

For internal search without using a search engine discord has had way more devs, time and money thrown at it. Still would say its barely better than lemmy (just is cause of the time filters)

It was removed from the source instance already (lemmy.world)

Not sure why lemmy.dbzer0 doesnt get that federated

Lemmy needs better integration/federation. Too much content is hidden. A community on the biggest instance was not visible to me on another large instance.

I did a search from shitjustworks for “reddit die” and did not find lemmy.world/c/watchredditdie so I made sh.itjust.works/c/watchredditdie (unnecessarily). This should really not happen. When someone makes a community there should be a “ping” sent out to notify all other federated instances....

Instances are the ones hosting the data on their servers + things not having mods can devolve very quickly with things like the nazi bar problem or the scam links that have been getting posted and removed in some communities. This is a different thing than whats in the post though, the post is talking about all communities needing to be fetched manually the first time theyre viewed

The modlogs public to see removed comments. Just a bit difficult to navigate through currently

boost.lemy.lol <- link to it, doesnt work for instances not connected to it like lemmy.world but theres still ~ 26 major ones

mac ,
@mac@programming.dev avatar

Code blocks got updated in 0.19, lemmy.world is still on a 0.18 version

mac ,
@mac@programming.dev avatar

Active is a combination of that and hot but is essentially hard capped at 2 days. Things past that wont show up

Theres the new comments sort which works like that though

mac ,
@mac@programming.dev avatar

Currently theres also mbin (fork of kbin) and lotide that have instances running them

Also some others in development but nobody running them yet

mac ,
@mac@programming.dev avatar

Instances that defederate with threads wont see content from threads even on other instances that may federate with them.

As an example here lemmy.ml federates with hexbear and world but hexbear and world dont federate with each other. On lemmy.ml posts world users cant see any comments made from people on hexbear and vice versa

So they wont have to deal with them indirectly

mac , (edited )
@mac@programming.dev avatar

Didnt say to go anywhere, just said that people on .world cant see content from hexbear on lemmy.ml posts shown by those comment counts above even though lemmy.ml federates with hexbear. (hexbear used since its the best example of a large blocked instance that can showcase this well. Could have also used .world, .ml and beehaw and same point stands)

Same logic would apply to .world federating with threads. People on lemmy.dbzer0 for example wont see content from threads on .world posts or communities even if .world federates with threads

Just wanted to put a counterpoint to you saying people would need to deal with it indirectly which isnt true proven by the above. You dont need to strawman it by making it a different point
