im going to write documentation for something I don’t understand and can’t figure out? Maybe if we had a dedicated website we all use that let us upvote good posts we could have a thread about support for the latest upgrade and then we could use the answers on that website (maybe we call it Lemmy) to update the documentation (which is partly on github, partly on the join-lemmy docs page, and scattered across 4 matrix channels)

thats not an upgrade support thread its a thread announcing the release. Notice how no one is posting there asking for support and no where in the documentation does it mention the thread. People are guided towards the matrix instead and theres like 4 matrix channels where people ask questions so its all unorganized, unsearchable on search engines, and no benefit of upvotes

Removed by mod

They should’ve explained that in the post if that was the case. Not make a pinned post that’s locked with zero information. Also it would be a frivolous threat considering no website has ever had to remove internet archive links. If they want to threaten someone they have to threaten the Internet Archive not a tiny website like lemmy.world that is protected by section 230 and doesnt host any copyrighted material.

Grocery shopping for a recipe you then cook together. Or walk in the park

Because it feels way more like we’re in person when facetiming? Being able to see eachother and show eachother stuff is great. Its much different to discord because you’re focused on eachother not doing other stuff while the video is on the side

The fact that most people cant answer that is the problem. More people have android phones than iphones yet everyone knows FaceTime and no one knows a name for video calling on android phones. Android users dont have a culture to video calling where as people with iphones casually facetime eachother instead of doing phone calls.

What new kind of society? Democracy and representative government are older than the US.

Nazis were literally inspired the US to use Zyklon B from when they used it on immigrants they still

continue to exploit https://www.npr.org/2006/01/28/5176177/the-bath-riots-indignity-along-the-mexican-border

Hitler literally praises the US in mein kampf and jim crow was an inspiration to the Nazi’s https://www.history.com/news/how-the-nazis-were-inspired-by-jim-crow

its had its issues It still has the issues lol the largest population in prison per capita, no healthcare, no public transportation, shrinking life expectancy, and they’re still occupying tons of countries, still sanctioning cuba for god knows what, still arming tons of dictators and terrorists around the world, etc etc

Ice Cubes without a doubt. Its open source, has quote-reposts, already supports bridge from activitypub to atProtocol (bluesky), and has great translation features

It being a racist country doesn’t mean each person is racist. The country took part in decades of genocide, slavery, segregation, coups in countless countries, placed countless dictators in power, and inspired the Nazis (yes literally).

Google doesn’t have vision or taste in my opinion. They released a million messaging apps and STILL haven’t made a decent one. Its been how many years and they still use SMS on most androids and people have to rely on whatsapp, a Fcaebook app… now they’re releasing their new “standard” RCS which has competing versions some with end to end encryption by default and some without.

They STILL don’t have a FaceTime alternative unless you use whatsapp…

Google knows how to show ads and everything else has so little passion and vision i dont trust any of their services because they love to kill their products

Yes, its your choice. I would prefer it if this is barely done to increase the likely hood of information being indexed and easily found on google searches though.

Just the sidebar which i find very convenient for pinning things like telegram or mastodon.

Please don’t do this and keep information easy to google. The best part of Reddit was how much hours of time it saves when googling for information on stuff

Are you trying to learn how to make money in rehab to buy drugs after rehab…? Dude.

Clearly you need to focus on the rehab part of rehab and not be thinking about money or anything other than your health.

User option to block Lemmy server/instance

• Ability for a user to essentially block an entire servers posts. I don’t want to rely on my admin to block a server. I want the option to block all posts and the option to block all posts and comments. (Block or hide is fine)

Quick Scroll

• Button to scroll to next top comment that can be held to scroll to previous top comment (like apollo has)

Mute words

• Ability to block/mute words so for example i can block all communities with the word meme in it because i want to browse All to find new communities but i never want to see meme communities/posts.

Notes

• Add custom notes/tags to a user/community that can be color coded

Embed youtube/invidious/peertube that pins on scroll

• When opening a thread with a link to a youtube/peertube/inividious link have it embed and play in the app and when you go to the comments have the video stay pinned on top so you can keep watching while scrolling through the comments

I wish countries would compete with stuff like this vs only competing in physical sports and war.

Never heard of it thanks for sharing. The app section of the join lemmy website should have get some push requests to include all the current apps.

A UI element for a specific usecase makes the world of difference to get something like this done and made efficient enough so the site can be self sustainable. Unless we want to have days of the year dedicated to donation banners covering the website like wikipedia has to do.

Id rather support the internets library directly than pray the people maintaining it figure out deals to make the people funding it rich at some point

Reddit is clearly owned by Venture Capitalists that are forcing the site to go to shit so they can fill their pockets with ad revenue. If we self funded reddit or forums etc so that we can keep ot sustainable and focused on being the best instead of making a small number of people an infinite amount of money we would still have the reddit we love.
