Yeah pictrs has been having issues recently. Some images load but others dont and you cant upload any new images until we get it fixed

Admin here, there should be nothing censored atm apart from a couple scam links

Not sure why that says removed but its not on our end (and its like that everywhere). Lemmy probably has some handling where it also censors if the posters instance says so

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

yeah lemmy does some wonky federation behaviours in this kind of case

Ive restored the post. At some point I should be making it easier to manually review things the bot does but havent had time to do that currently

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

No thats not a feature currently

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah lemmy currently doesn't send notifications about moderation actions

Some mod teams add it in through manually dming (which usually will happen here if someone on the admin team is warning, banning, etc. you (apart from site bans which the user wouldn't be able to access their messages from) and its not just an obvious spammer or bot) or code their own systems to notify about actions

Everything's viewable in the modlog though and you can filter by yourself to see all actions made relating to you

Even with the disabled instances, communities that get added onto there reach a much larger section of people than external community browsers do as casual users that just check the site once a day or something and don't pay attention to external sites can still stumble on them without knowing the federate site exists or needing to know explicit community names

Ideally more instances would get added onto there but its still fine like this. Been getting some nice interactions and starting activity on new programming.dev communities

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (7 children)

Yeah, disabled accounts means the instance doesn't have a bot from the site on their instance so the site can't federate them. Usually this would be not accepting the user application

Lemmy.world isnt in the site but most other large instances are

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (9 children)

As more people use https://lemmy-federate.com more niche communities will show up in most large instances by default

Imo its the ideal solution since it populates the posts in the all feed for people who don't know about the site to still see

It looks like you were temp banned from the linux community for 3 days

The comment you made was transphobia which goes against the programming.dev code of conduct. I suggest reading the comment of the user who replied to you and learning how to respect people more

This comment

does not qualify as a "respectful conversations where no one is insulting each other, or anyone else"

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

It works, those statuses are just a bit misleading

How it works is it subs to a community (from all instances connected to it) until someone from an instance subs and then it unsubs in that instance. In the previous version of the site when it unsubbed it would mark the instance it unsubbed from as completed on that community (although seems to be a bit broken here)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Rather than being limited to posts themselves it probably makes more sense to attach it to certain chunks of something. For example a block of code so that people copying the code to use in their own projects after receiving help actually have the license to do so rather than that just being verbal (could make it default to MIT No Attribution or some other license the community specifies). This same logic can be extended to images (although probably with no default for those since theres way too many possible cases)

I havent looked into FOSS keyboards much but It looks like they're licensed as GPL on the repo. The CC BY-SA is for the project icon

The instance has now been upgraded up to 0.19.1 from 0.18.5

Due to some authentication changes you will need to log in again and set up 2fa again if you had it previously enabled (since the 2fa process changed to prevent people locking themselves out)

Code Highlighting

If you make code blocks using the three backticks method the code in it will automatically be highlighted based on the detected language (in lemmy-ui aka the site)

Surrounding in 1 backtick lets you do it inline

E.g.

`console.log("hello world")` becomes console.log("hello world")

```
console.log("hello world")
```

Becomes

console.log("hello world")

The blocks will be light if youre on the light theme and dark if youre on the dark theme

Instance Blocking

This is for lemmy-ui, alt frontends may not have support yet or may be done a different way

Go to your profile settings by hitting your name, then settings in the top right

There should be a blocks section you can switch to. Go to the instances part of that and search for the instance you want to block

Blocking an instance will prevent you from seeing posts from that instance

Scaled sort

When you go to choose a sort while browsing posts you should see an option called scaled. This is hot but takes into account the active users to boost communities that need it. (E.g. a community with 20 active users will be shown more than a community with 10000)

Remote following

You can follow a community while browsing it from the site of another instance. To do this just hit subscribe for the community while not logged in on that other instance and it'll bring up a pop-up where you can enter your instance you want to subscribe from

Hey everyone! Were pushing through the update to 0.19 now that 0.19.1 is out that fixes the issues with it (outbound federation breaking + show read posts not working)

Said in the previous meta post it would be after christmas but due to something that got noticed about 0.18 (not going to specify what since we and a bunch of other instances are still on it) were pushing it through now

Major Changes in 0.19

  • Code block support in lemmy-ui (the website) (contributed by programming.dev)
  • Activity metrics now includes voters (contributed by programming.dev) (this is how our instance was doing it but now all instances do)
  • Reports are now resolved automatically when a post is marked as deleted
  • 2FA has been reworked to prevent people getting locked out
  • Users can now block instances
  • Theres a new scaled sort that can be used (hot sort but takes into account community active users so it boosts low activity communities)
  • You can now remote follow instances by browsing on another site and hitting subscribe when not logged in (https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/1875#issuecomment-1727790414)

Theres a bunch of other changes but not relevant to end users or are more minor

NOTE

  • If you enabled 2fa you will need to enable it again due to the 2fa changes
  • You will need to log in again due to authentication changes
 

Day 16: The Floor Will Be Lava

Megathread guidelines

  • Keep top level comments as only solutions, if you want to say something other than a solution put it in a new post. (replies to comments can be whatever)
  • You can send code in code blocks by using three backticks, the code, and then three backticks or use something such as https://topaz.github.io/paste/ if you prefer sending it through a URL

This community still mostly has me running it and has 1 other mod but I typically like starting communities off with at least 2 mods. This community is a bit different in that theres the solution megathreads that need to be posted when a new day drops (and then unlocked when the global leaderboard fills up). When it has a dedicated mod team running it ill remove myself so its not admin run

If youre interested feel free to say so below

[email protected]

Note: to be a mod its preferred if your account is within the instance since lemmy doesnt handle cross-instance modding that well and this makes it so you have access to features added to pangora that other instances may not have
