The ansible way was the easiest way, but I did the mistake and read the documentation before and did changes to config.hjson, which lead to other issues.
I am writing this to help others who run into the same problems.
More about my mistakes with the lemmy installation (and the solution) can be read on github.
With automation it would be possible to make several accounts upload a lot of images at the same time, which might fill the server within a short time.
But I get it that not the whole world is the same, but isn’t it a little bit overreacting to move to an Asian country because of this? If not, which country should it be? And it doesn’t mean you can live in freedom there, for example: Foreigners can’t buy property in Thailand. And Asia countries might have other things, which we see as granted, but isn’t there.
It might be better if the post, which will be published, will be checked for the images, which have been uploaded and just delete all other ones, which have been uploaded, but not have been used in the post. This mechanics must be integrated in the edit post functionality, too.
Additionally all images could have a flag, which contain a “used_in_post” flag, because if someone only uploads images without sending the post and closing the browser/tab, the images will not be checked.
If those images have a time stamp in the database, they could be deleted after x hours without getting a used_in_post flag.
But are they state-of-the-art and modern? What I mean by that is really efficient, like energy-efficient, small and fast. Old software has sometimes the problem that old code can’t be removed, because it is just the core of it or would take too much time. Newer software could learn from that and be much better.
Okay, writing about it I realized that modern websites eat up most resources of high-end pcs just while scrolling through. This is something I don’t had in mind :D
I just figured out that the inbox has an RSS sign, too. So you could subscribe to full threads if you are the threat owner and see comments on your comments if you posted somewhere else.
It’s not exactly what I was looking for, but it helps a lot.
P.S.: I think the link must be updated every time you create a new post or comment on something, because I can’t imagine it will get the newest threads and comments you created. At least it wouldn’t be good, because otherwise everyone could exactly see what you have in your inbox.
Okay, so it’s because of the same reason they don’t like to use emails anymore. There is an association to apply to a job or communicate with teachers, etc. and they are uncomfortable to use it, because of that.
Maybe I can compare it with my generation (Millennials). We didn’t use letters to write to friends and didn’t know the concept of a pen pal, because every time we get a letter (made out of paper) it was a bill or something different uncomfortable. Emails and ICQ were our thing, especially boomers didn’t know how to use the internet (or haven’t seen a useful purpose) at the time and that’s why we even liked it more.
So in general it’s conditioning a whole generation to make only bad experience with a thing, until they get anxious about it.
Okay, I’ve created a feature request on github.
I think I have too many filters active and the RSS icon could be in some of the aesthetic filters. But I think lemmy.ml is one of the rare website were a “horse droppings” filter isn’t even needed at all and I deactivated uBlock Origin completely for lemmy.ml. No Google, Amazon, Facebook or other malware.
There are also user feeds. There don’t appear to be feeds for comments on a post or searches but maybe we can see those some day.
Subscribing to posts as RSS to get newest comments would be very useful to follow discussions in an efficient way. But I think I have to do a video to convince the dev that it is really useful :P
Is this an NRSK only feature, because I can’t see this button on lemmy.ml ?
This is the most un-intuitive way to post something anywhere on the internet ever. Who came up with this idea and why? Because I think the developer might have a reason or it is just a bug.
Wouldn’t it be better to show the “create post” button right beside the “subscribe” button in a group (without being subscribed to the group)?
Yesterday I’ve started the official guide (https://guide.elm-lang.org/) to learn Elm and it is good so far. I did this, because I thought “If there is someone, who provides the newest tutorials, then it’s the founder of Elm them-self.”
Elm 0.19 isn’t backwards compatible and that’s why it’s really frustrating to start with tutorials. Most of them will just not work.
The website you mentioned looks very good, but I can’t figure out if it’s updated to 0.19, because comments are about 4 years old (before 0.19 was released).
My original post is on lemmy.ml (https://lemmy.ml/post/439617) and not beehaw. I really don’t understand how beehaw is involved in this. Is it only because I added the link to this post? But this link was meant to show an example and not to overtake the filters of the server.
I am confused…
I was looking on Elm a few years ago, but I couldn’t find the word ELM in any job ad on any platform, but I could find hundreds for the words AnguarJS, VueJS, ReactJS.
After following an Elm tutorial, I found the concept really confusing and the several sections in a file made it look really bloaty.
I gave up after a short time, because there was no joy for me at all. Maybe the learning curve might be really steep, because of the concept and that’s why I lost interest.
Are you actively code in Elm and do you publish Elm code? I would love to see it (if it’s not a huge project and it is still understandable).
I will watch those presentations and hopefully I will have another view on it afterwards.
What if I own the Lemmy instance?
I am still undecided about what the solution will be.
On the one hand a clean minimalistic and static blog is really good to read and on the other side, on Lemmy a discussion will start really fast and as an author of those “embedded blog articles on lemmy”, I can see discussions and can even react to them.
The only problem might be the design, which we already discussed here with nutomic.
There might be much more advantages to have a blog inside Lemmy, if it’s optimized for long reading…
I don’t know if this is true in Germany or other European countries. I think you can get sued pretty fast without even knowing what is going on.
