What’s dumb is reputation doesn’t even do anything on Kbin right now other than make you go “haha I have higher number than you” so reputation farming is a total waste of time. Personally I hope it stays that way as it will deter the farmers, I can see some of the benefits of the karma system in Reddit but it’s just too prone to manipulation to be actually useful in any way.
Has anyone made a Doggles community/magazine yet?
Gorgeous kitty! Is he a Toyger?
Yet more reasons why people should stop using LastPass… I finally switched to Bitwarden after getting tired of having to choose between using it on mobile or desktop. Got out before the hack. I’m going to work on transferring my data again to a self hosted Bitwarden
Read that as EPCOT at first and was really confused what a theme park in Florida had to do with the storms in Texas haha
Nope, the wells been poisoned. Even if they did a full 180 and Fired Spez for good measure, they’ve shown their hand. How long before they do it again? Even if all of this was %100 Spezs idea and everyone else in the company opposed it, could we really trust the replacement to never try this or anything similar again? How long before the next CEO decides to try again? What Reddit as a company has proven is that they can’t be trusted, and what we as a community have proved with switching over to Kbin and Lemmy is that we don’t need Reddit. We can make the same content and have the same or in some cases better communities and the beauty of doing it on a platform like this? A greedy corporation can’t destroy it again. Even if a major instance owner goes rogue, we pick up move to another instance and keep going no need to learn a new site no need to rebuild communities. A simple “I’m moving over to this instance!” And that’s it
Everytime I see a video about Framework the more I’m tempted to buy one of their laptops, seems like a great company
Oh gosh right wing TikTok sounds like a nightmare.
I think there is some merit of wanting to be less forced into being connected all the time but I think a lot of these people that want to go back to a time before cell phones and the Internet are forgetting all the good parts. Like no internet at all means in order to connect with friends or communities around the world you either have to send snail mail or schedule phone calls to take place on land lines. The Internet has brought so many people together in such good ways and throwing that out would be a huge shame. Meanwhile cell phones being gone mean if you’re stranded in the middle of nowhere you are now stuck and have no way of calling for help and have to find some way to get to a phone. Also no cell phones means of you are in a dangerous situation you can’t notify emergency contacts quickly or again call for help.
I get there are a lot of downsides to the Internet and cell phones but to just ignore all the wonderful and good things this technology has brought is not good. The technology isn’t the issue it’s the people and if we want to be better we need to start training ourselves and others to be better instead of just taking away good and helpful tools
TLDR: Technology has done a lot of good for the world and taking it away would cause a lot of problems I don’t think people like this realize. Better solution is to grow and be better people
Ugh, that’s so annoying. What’s the point of making great products if you’re eventually just going to shut them down?
I self host Mattermost it’s a Slack+Trello alternative. But they do also have just the Trello alternative if you don’t want the Slack functionally it’s called Focalboard
I’ve heard other similar tools only grab the first 1000 comments/posts does this grab everything? Or does it have a similar limitation?
Yup! No worries! Glad you got it figured out!
On Kbin if the community you want isn’t showing in the magazine list, what you need to do is go to the search bar that searches the whole site and type in the Lemmy community name followed by an @ followed by the instance name. For example: firefox@lemmy.ml
After searching it should come up and you can subscribe to it. It only shows up in the magazines list once someone on the instance subscribes to it, so if you are the first to subscribe to it you have to do a manual search first
Lol the admins are saying people are bullying them now
The past tense insinuates this is an old picture. As per cat tax laws I’m going to have to ask you to also post a recent picture of your cat. Sorry I don’t make the rules 🤷
