Lemmy Lead Developer and father of two children.

I also develop Ibis, a federated wiki.

  • Tesseract hides any post containing the phrase "censoring me"

    Jump

  • Wow this "policy" has 3700 lines in total. It must take a lot of time to create and maintain it. How does someone even find the time for that?

    I tried to access some blocked users and communities via tesseract.dubvee.org and it simply shows a generic "Not Found" error. So this is impossible to figure out for the average user. Even for developers it would be hard to figure out if the JSON file was hidden a bit better.

  • it would be good to have a nice activitypub debugger

  • You can follow Lemmy users from Mastodon etc. But the outbox isnt even used by Mastodon, so we havent bothered to implement it properly yet.

  • it would be good to have a nice activitypub debugger

    Jump

  • if i open my own user profile from mastodon, it only shows me about half the posts that i actually make.

    That is normal, its usually because no one on that instance follows your user profile specifically. Part of your posts are federated because someone is following a subset of the communities where you are posting.

  • Private community here on the fediverse?

    Jump

  • Private communities in Lemmy only federate with approved users and their instances. So if you dont trust lemmy.xyz, simply dont approve any followers from that instance, then it will never receive any private content.

  • Meta putting up tents across the US to house AI servers, like ‘a scene out of the movie Mad Max’ — structures take three months to build and use jet engines for power

    Jump

  • The European Social Stack — An open declaration

    Jump

  • Yes that's me ;)

    They contacted us just a few days ago, asking if we want to sign. So I also don't know any more details yet, only what the public declaration says.

  • it would be cool if posts could be geo-tagged

  • Better integration with Mastodon or Pixelfed mainly needs to be done from their side, but it seems those projects are not interested. Are there any specific improvements you would like to see?

    Thanks for donating!

  • Lemmy puts up full-page advertisements for donations but a lot of that funding goes to running Lemmy.ml and seemingly only very little to actual code development.

    Please stop spreading misinformation. The server for lemmy.ml only costs ~70€ per month which is only 2% of the total donation amount (3336€). With Lemmy we care a lot about writing high-quality and bug-free code as well as offering a good user experience. All of that takes time to do well.

    Edit: For your information, only donations via Opencollective pay for lemmy.ml hosting. All other donation methods are exclusively paying for developer salaries.

  • A quick Chinese lesson

    Jump

  • Thats good to hear, I made a lot of mistakes of using the wrong numbers for times or dates.

  • In Korean it's not so bad: 한, 둘, 셋, 넷. Or 일, 이, 삼, 사. Yes there are two different types of numbers...

  • What is the difference between piefed and lemmy and what are the advantages of this platform?

    Jump

  • For those who have tried MBin, is it a good Lemmy alternative?

    Jump

  • I asked @dessalines@lemmy.ml about this as he is more familiar with the ranking algos:

    Maybe not renaming active, but possibly renaming hot... but IMO they're fine. Its just different from reddit, and more like the hackernews algorithm: join-lemmy.org/docs/contributors/07-ranking-algo.html#hacker-news . It's more new-focused to prevent the main problem of reddits which is rewarding first posts / comments, regardless of their quality

  • A more private way to distribute votes

    Jump

  • If your instance invents fake users for voting, that is very easy to spot if you view the profile and its all empty. So you need to add a profile picture, bio and some posts as well. But if the names and avatars are all similar, or the posts are obviously LLM generated, its still quite easy to spot manipulation. Or if the modlog for that user has entries for vote manipulation. On the other hand if there is only the total number of votes, there is no way at all to see if they are legit.

    I think a much better option for vote privacy is what Piefed tried using "Local-only votes". So privacy-conscious users can choose that their votes are not federated, and then only the local admin can see them. This could be a simple boolean user setting, or could be more granular to allow/disallow vote federation with specific instances.

  • Do you think it would make sense renaming Active to Hot and vice versa?

  • Ibis 0.3.2 - Wikipedia Import, UI Translation and more

    Jump

  • MediaWiki is a much bigger project, with probably dozens of developers working on it full-time. It has a lot more features. Ibis on the other hand is only a small project which I'm developing on the side. If Wikipedia wanted to federate, the best option would be adding that logic directly into MediaWiki.

    Jump

  • Oops youre right, I closed registrations a while ago as I wasnt working on Ibis and there were too many spam accounts. Opened it for now, later I need to add something like Lemmy's registration application.

  • Mastodon will get end-to-end encryption for private messages thanks to Sovereign Tech Agency

    Jump

  • Yes that is what I mean, admins can only see private messages that their own local users are either sending or receiving. Not from users on other instances.

    I agree that privacy is important, but most admins probably couldnt care less what their users are writing in private messages. And there is a tradeoff between implementing end-to-end encryption, or implementing other features that may be more important.

  • Mastodon will get end-to-end encryption for private messages thanks to Sovereign Tech Agency

    Jump

  • Setting an instance is easy, but actually getting a significant amount of users is much more difficult. And as admin you can only see the private messages of your local users, no one else. So if you are not talking about illegal stuff the risk is negligible. And if you are, use a real messenger application or better yet avoid all computers.
