Clever Code? Sounds like a company 🫣

Never heard of them. What do they do?

I expected a whole gtk/qt theme, but it looks like it’s just a wallpaper?

I ordered several times from https://stickerapp.com/ and was always very happy with the result.

I would say so too, if it was more than just a hobby. Nevertheless, anybody can add the Creative Commons license to their work as long as it is their own work.
Hobby bloggers like to make this their own. But I understand the point you’re making.

And I’m running several lawsuits against individuals because of copyright infringements. So it definitely matters enough.

Unfortunately, I have to disappoint you. Copyright infringement also matters when private individuals are affected. E.g. when a private person uses CreativeCommons, MIT, or GPL license. CreativeCommons is mostly used for text.
In addition, you need to read the TOS of the platform to see if they do not take the rights, as Facebook does, for example.

There is a privacy community on on lemmy.ca: !privacy@lemmy.ca

Simply ban the IPs & the accounts of the abusers while enforcing the rules, and it shall be clean after a while.

That would work. But banning the IP would mean banning whole instances, because spam does not only come from the local instance. Banning the user by username does work for 5 minutes, before they register a new account.
Since nobody who’s hosting a Lemmy instance is paying a professional moderation team, which is 24/7 available to ban spam, it’s almost impossible to react in time.

I don’t know how it works in lemmy, but each instance could go and have a word filter (if the post contains a blacklisted word, it would be held for review).

This word filter is called slur-Filter and is available. Nevertheless, this has been criticized by outsiders very often and Lemmy as a whole was made bad.

I am Not Talking about the software feature, I am talking about why the 5,000 or so users who have an account at lemmy are unable to speak & interact with each other.

I don’t think it’s particularly beneficial to criticize Lemmy because some instance blocks others, but applaud Mastodon for “moderation”, on which a hashtag is highly valued that “recommends” blocking entire instances because one person has a problem with another on another instance.

As for moderation, mastodon is going to pass 8,000,000 users soon, and they have gab and truth social there, yet they are still able to moderate it.

With what I’ve experienced on Mastodon so far, the “moderation” consists almost entirely of overblocking by distributing blacklists, which are primarily controlled by bigger instances.

I was always happy with the combination of transmissiond running on a file server and transmission-remote as client, available for Linux, Windows and Android.

Wouldn’t it make more sense to get a small SSD instead of a USB stick and connect it via USB using an external enclosure? There shouldn’t be much difference regarding performance, but there should be in lifespan. You could also split partitions up and use the free space for other things.

I prefer distro packages, because they don’t need to install dependencies, which are already installed. But for testing out a program or in need of several versions of one and the same one, it’s a great deal.
But even for testing or running multiple versions, AppImage is the better solution, in my opinion.

LibreOffice is great. I used their offline tools since release, and I really should take my time to take a look at their online version. Currently, I’m using ONLYOFFICE with Nextcloud at home.
Thanks for the hint.

They’re only talking about the clouds. So, it’s not allowed to use e.g. Microsoft Skydrive or Google Drive. But as long as it’s possible to use Microsoft Office also offline, they’re doing it here.
Banning the clouds is a good start, but politics stopped there, without thinking about the offline software.

Did they? If so, then way too many schools don’t think to switch. I have way too many friends who are unhappy that their children still bring docx documents home, if at all. Because digitization here is seriously stuck in the Stone Age, many schools aren’t particularly equipped.

Let’s hope, other countries do the same with MS Office and Google Docs.

More interesting question would be, how to deal with incoming messages from other systems, which doesn’t support a karma system? 🤔

uff … Already this old? It feels like last year that I’ve seen it the first time.

As I see the downvotes on this, but not on the real stupid ones, I’ll don’t open such a safe space. I think, that many still will not understand, until they suffer by themselves. I hope, the down voters will never need to find a safe space. Good luck!

EDIT: I see, that all of a sudden the traces are quickly erased. This shows how much a safe space would be needed. However, I will discard my idea!

Why not? I could ask the other way. Why creating new Mastodon/Pleroma/Friendica/… instances, when already many exists? A lot of them even without a clear topic and a lot of spam.
And why shouldn’t I use the Lemmy software? Should I prefer an old BBS, which have no apps? Or should I use a static homepage with a disqus like comment option?
The Lemmy software offers a private option and a clear, topic based structure. And federation is optional. Or do you use all functions of the Friendica instance you are? Do you use any option in your phone? If not, why have you bought it? Reinventing the wheel?

Can’t wait for it.

Utopia has always been just wishful thinking and will always be.

ahh. Thanks for clarifying. I only know this as AI.

What’s an AGI?
Sorry for my stupid question, but I read it the first time now.

You can find the list of software at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse

It would. But Tweets with a link to an external social media site are down rated by the algorithm and don’t reach that many followers as it should.

Yes …

🤷

I use https://libredirect.github.io/ for Firefox.

Yes, numbering is different. But when you search for a direct URL, your instance will download it, if not already exists, and shows you the local cached version with the number your instance gave it to.

Just open search top right and enter the url there. When the search found it, you can open the post on your instance, where you’re already logged in, and comment.

I think, it’s to make them cheaper.

That’s easy to remember. 🤭

I like this idea

🤣 such an amazing idea. I love it.

Welcome back Thunderbird. Even if you were never gone from my place.

My experience over the last few years is that Discord in particular is used for organized cyberbullying, hate speech, blackmailing, badmouthing, as support seems to be more than absent. And if support ever gets back to you, you feel like you’re in a German ‘Media Markt’: “That’s not my department!”.
As an aside, almost everyone there seems to think they can make their own laws and ignore, for example, countries’ privacy laws. Sharing screenshots from direct messages seems to be as normal as brushing teeth for many there.

Have you googled what the word FAPSI mean?

The “it’s open source, so instead of complaining, you can just add the Firefox support yourself” doesn’t count in my eyes.
Yes, it is open source, but not anybody has enough time to add functions by themselves. And what about the ones who don’t know the language it’s written in?

" We are sorry, but the app is not optimized to run in this browser. Please consider using a chromium based browser or downloading the electron version of the app.".

This damn excuse from the developer is reason for me not to use this software!
It would be same, if a gamer asks the game developer, because the game is running badly with AMD graphics card and the developer would only say, that one should buy Nvidia.
