Interesting observation. I really wish anything we see could be trusted regarding the war rn, but fog of war is one hell of a thing. Let's hope we will see everything that propaganda has pushed after the war is over.

That's for the next bot, to take prompts from Reddit and answer with pictures

Honestly this makes me want to start writing bots that can classify text to make some things easier to parse on Lemmy. Ok that's going in my blacklog.

You sly dog you had me recursin' for a second

Mmm yes, let the snake oil flow through you.

They'd do better finally fixing teams. We're talking years after release, and there's still no option to change my status behaviour. It forces DnD when I get called, it puts me afk after only 5min, ...

Their software does not fundamentally work very well. So even if this bs would be talking about an actual feature, that's some stone age project management right there.

As if bbc wouldn't get you upvoted to oblivion

That's one of the things that this platform's name is appearently based on. Just FYI; so you and the main developer have something in common :)

Man there's literally only one thing stopping me from using mastodon and that's likes.

I know marketing, and shit, and likes sometimes skew things, but without likes any toot is given the same weight, no matter if it's a good or bad toot. There's no way for me to see through the chaos that emerges from this.

I know there are reasons not to do this, but I damn well know I'm not the only one, and I'm sure it would make it more appealing for a lot of ppl unfamiliar with mastodon. You could even make it optional so ppl can turn it off and there would be no harm done.

That's a big yikes and I hope they will find another way...

There are a lot of reasons for this general trend, but let me add my two cents to make a case for the sudden influx of user-opposed changes:

I don't have a source for this, but I remember that Linus spoke about this on the LTT WAN-Show. Basically, abunch of big silicon valley investors are pulling out of all of the big platforms, therefore leaving them with a huge hole in their profitability. This means, that right now a lot of them are scrambling to scrape together more money over time, so all of those platforms are sustainable.

Obviously this has to observed in conjunction with all of those are trends that are already mentioned by other comments, but this gives more basis as to why now, and why to this extent.

If someone else knows what I'm talking about please add quotes and sources because I don't like the good old 'dude trust me' guarantee one bit.

I mean faking reviews is literally violating laws in some countries, so it's not like there's no basis.

On one hand I agree, on the other hand the original point of contention was price per request, and less people = less requests.

Then again that means less ppl to maybe make enough of a margin to cover development and maintenance costs.

It's Def gonna be interesting, just a little complex.

 

This is a helpful website for finding out where your subreddit communities moved to.

 

Someone recently asked if there was a neat way to see where all of the now broken down subreddits moved.

Some moved to Discord, some to Lemmy, and some are somewhere else.

This seems to be a good place to find your communities again: https://sub.rehab/

 

The developers behind Lemmy have spoken up about the current situation regarding migrating users and the effect on their development process.

Two most important points from this imo:

  • don't hammer them with pull requests, duplicate Git issues or questions because they got enough of those
  • if you want things to move faster, give them money! They are focusing on user feedback and therefore don't have enough time to make a lot of money.
