  • They lump far more people into the same group. They attack anyone whom they think they can, even if they know that their accusations are BS.

  • Just happened here in Austria. Police took 20 people into custody (13 have since been formally arrested) for luring people to fake dates where they beat them up.

    The suspects said they hunted pedophiles, but at least in some of the cases they targeted young adults who expected to come to a date with 16-18 year olds.

  • FBI raids home of prominent computer scientist who has gone incommunicado

  • Especially the part about his wife. Sounds very much like espionage to me.

  • Why aren't lemmy DMs compatible with mastodon?

  • There are now Fediverse Enhancement Proposals (FEP) that are being published by Fedi developers with the goal to improve interoperability and well-being of diverse services, applications and communities that form the Fediverse.

  • Plugin support now ready for devs, releasing with v1.0

    Jump

  • From the RFC that is linked above:

    "Plugins will make Lemmy more flexible, and allow implementing features which are too niche for merging into Lemmy core. It will allow Lemmy to focus on core features, while allowing outside developers to contribute new features without using Rust."

  • The fediverse has a bullying problem

  • Everyone I ever talked to told me "well yes we have to implement our own version of ActivityPub because AP is under-defined". In most cases it is defined what AP does, but not how. Therefore individual programers go in and figure out on their own how a certain thing they are building for their platform should be structured in AP.

    Now, every project could simply go "I will copy the way Pixelfed implements it". But why should PF have that priviledge?

  • That is still not the point the commenter and the original blog author were making.

    What we can take away from this episode is that Pixelfed implemented the fix in a way that suggests they would not handle a 0 day exploit with a "reql" vulnerability well. And having followed dansup's projects for a while that doesnt surprise me, because he clearly prefers to work "chaoticly" than in a structured, regulated way.

    The "taking the heat" is something completely seprrate and boils down to stupid people on the internet needing to be angry at someone.

  • You could open an issue on lemmy's github for this

  • Pixelfed leaks private posts from other Fediverse instances - fiona fokus

    Jump

  • Imo it demonstrates that for certain threat models the fediverse simply doesn't have the 100% secure answers.

  • TIL there're hundreds of recognised sub-national monarchies all across Africa. While no longer sovereign, these monarchies retain political, cultural, and religious influence in their communities

    Jump

  • Not only an African thing. Historically cultural leaders exist in lots of places around the world. For example in Europe certain places still hand bishops some local traditional roles. Germany still has titular princes and dukes that hold no political role. Etc.

  • How do you not feel overwhelmed using Mastodon?

    Jump

  • It's probably users not setting their posts' language properly.

  • Pixelfed fundraised $134,139 for development

    Jump

  • "Pixelfed itself has also grown, and there are now reportedly 8 people joining the team."

  • The most upvoted post on lemmy

    Jump

  • Because the original post is the most up-voted lemmy post ever, apparently

  • There are teenagers on the fediverse.

  • Lemm.ee allows minors out of the same school of thought why it allows federation with nearly all instances there are, including NSFW: liberalism (as in: freedom)

  • Why Isn't the "All" Feed Different for Each Instance?

    Jump

  • No, your local feed only shows posts from communities hosted on your instance.

    The all feed shows posts from communities hosted anywhere in the Threadiverse. The OP wants this, content from anywhere, but sorted/tailored by interactions your local users made.

  • That works if you never ever want to change your mind about not seeing stuff. Otherwise it sounds like a nightmare
