  • Lol damn!

  • Pretty cool. I won't get too excited until Bluesky (the company) is less than 90% of ATProto. Even mastodon.social is only like 27% of AP.

    I'd be afraid of one company having too much power over the whole network.

  • Yeah they post a lot of shit. We have too few commenters/voters spread across too many posts, which is a real great way to kill a community. We need the opposite, we already have enough posts, we need more people commenting/voting.

  • A huge thing that real posts have but bot posts do not have: comments notify the OP and thus have a good chance of getting a response. The bot communities almost never get comments, and even if they do it's extra rare for them to get a reply.

    If I didn't care about human-to-human comments then I wouldn't be here or on Reddit, I would just use RSS feeds, or the Google news feed.

  • People always complain about this but Lemmy does actually combine crossposts in your feed. What frontend are you using? Or maybe it's just bugged? If someone can figure out the bug and how to reproduce it, it needs to be submitted to GitHub.

    Here's a reference to the feature, a fixed bug, disabling the deduplication for a single community view https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2104#issuecomment-2316048658

  • And if they don't like PieFed then tell them to try Mbin next lol

  • yea maybe the prompt was like "make some graphs that show how much better GPT5 is, here's the data:" and attached a csv file

    then it went too far with trying to follow the instruction of showing GPT5 as better

  • those last meals can be real belly bombs

  • I wonder how much work it would be to port Lemmy UI to PieFed lol. I mean it's the same API that the apps are using and some apps seem to be adding PieFed support, so it can't be too hard.

  • Honestly the biggest issue is that there aren't many choices of frontends. Like for Lemmy some people use Voyager, some use Boost, Jerboa, Connect, Summit... There's a ton of choices. The more choices there are the better your chances of finding one that you love.

  • I am definitely a fan of the non-flashy UI, it's clean

  • I could see it causing clashes for very specific communities, maybe those could be manually disabled cause I can only think of very few

    or the comments could be grouped by multicommunities

  • merging them completely is bad yes, but the way PieFed does it is nice, they have separate headers for the comments from each community

  • pretty sure Lemmy v1.0 will have that

  • Scaled is AMAZING for the Subscribed view, and this is my primary way of browsing Lemmy. But yea it's pretty terrible for All

  • following hashtags kinda tricks people into thinking that it's going to be good, but hashtags don't trigger federation so it's a bit of a disappointment unless you're on a big instance
