I'm not sure about the git history wipe, I can't test it myself right now

 bash

    
rm -rf *

git add -A
git commit -m "oops."

rm -rf .git
git init
git add .
git commit -m "bye."

git push origin main --force

On that note, I should replace the AI generated community icon.

edit: Done, the icon is now the sushi bird. It works on two levels, since it also looks like a thumb nail 😄

Welcome!

For the rules, could you use different formatting? A lot of users use mobile apps, and some of them don't format markdown the way Lemmy does. The spoiler tag in particular doesn't get rendered in a lot of them.

For example, this is what I see in Boost:

Perhaps you can do something like

    
## Rules

1: 😇 Be Nice!

- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: **friendly**

2: 👶 Keep it at PG

Which will format like this

Rules

1: 😇 Be Nice!

Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly

2: 👶 Keep it at PG

You could also shorten some of them to make it more likely that people will read them. For example, moving this to the bottom of the rules section, or taking it out entirely:

Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanantly banned from posting.

I also liked the old sidebar's guidance on "complete stories" because it sums up what this community is intended for and differentiates it from "comics" and "memes". I don't know if it needs to be stated explicitly, but you could potentially include it right at the top with the description line.

I'm also happy to help out if the moderation load gets too much to handle. Feel free to add my LW account if at any point the team could use more hands: https://lemmy.world/u/otter

There is deepwiki, which can give you a similar overview. You will need to do the subsequent animations yourself afterwards

We are not running Anubis, although we do block a large number of AI/LLM companies through IP addresses. Each time we block a new one, it makes a noticeable difference in the performance graphs.

https://lemmy.nz/ and https://quokk.au/ are running Anubis, and so those admins may be able to offer insight :)

Weird, it loads instantly for me. Maybe you have some settings that are blocking the page?

The blocker runs in the main browser process rather than as a web extension, which means it isn't subject to the limitations that extension based blockers like uBlock Origin face.

Waterfox is a fork of Firefox though, why would it face the limitations that chrome has?

It will redirect you to a random community, so it wouldn't make much sense to subscribe to it. The apps will likely add a button or menu somewhere for you to use it

*for internal communication

The EU Commission is cracking down harder on digital espionage. It has instructed its highest-ranking officials to immediately dissolve a central Signal group for internal communication. According to Politico, department heads and their deputies are primarily affected by this measure. The order stems from fears that the chat group may have become the target of targeted cyberattacks.

I assume it is to prevent this mess

Music don't contain watermarks that ruin the experience in the work itself.

They do, and I find it a lot more obnoxious than a label in the borders on an image

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Producer_tag

It's available in text attribution/ metadata base.

When I download a song, the file comes with the metadata. When I download an image, the creator information is not there. When images are shared, it's very often the image alone and not a link to the page with the image.

Also artists have been leaving a signature on their art for as long as we've had art. All people are asking is that you share the art as it was created instead of modifying each piece before you share it. By doing that, you're deciding for other people what is best.

This honestly feels like a good opportunity for you to make a separate community and post your edits there so that the people who prefer that format can subscribe to it.

The benefit is that the other microblogging platforms might also implement or improve threadiverse support if this goes well. We could get more activity and users from the people who are only on a microblogging platform

Did you try Calibre Web or Calibre Web Automated

Maybe CWA is what you're looking for?

Nice, I had no idea

I tried out Fladder, Moonfin, and Wholphin

Fladder does load, but it crashes on certain pages for me. My guess is that my hardware isn't powerful enough to handle something that it's trying to do
Moonfin and Wholfin are both beautiful with an intuitive UI. Between the two, I liked Wholfin the best. It has a preview when customizing the home page, which is very helpful compared to the back and forth guess and test with the other ones. I also prefer it's UI and default settings over the others

I replaced Findroid with Wholphin on ours
