I would like to suggest that developers consider as much flexibility when trying to interact with links/handles from off-instance and off-kbin (e.g. lemmy) as possible. I would like for it to work on lemmy in a similar fashion....
So after a few days of lurking Kbin and trying to understand the marvelous world of the Fediverse, I've tried keep some mental notes of the struggles I've had and some spontaneous areas of improvement that I personally would like to see....
I can completely understand wanting to differentiate from Reddit, but to me, this is a matter of convenience and priority. Putting right after the article implies commenting on the article is emphasized. Putting it at the bottom of the comment page implies a want to comment on the comments....
Ne du, so was wie #DuckDuckGo, #StartPage & #Ecosia liefern Daten ihrer Crawler wie #Bing (M$) und/oder #Google. Pseudonymisiert ist nicht anonym, denn die sind vertraglich dazu verpflichtet.
🧵 …achtet doch mal an die vielen Alternativen von #Google, die ich oben erwähnte und nicht nur eine. Ich beschrieb auch, wie ich diese empfinde und dies dann auch #Datenschutz Alternativen sind.
P.S. Die im Artikel aufgeführte empfehle ich (fast) nicht.
«#Search – Google muss wählen lassen: #Alternative Suchmaschinen im Vergleich.
Wegen einer #EU-Regelung muss Google Userinnen und #User'n andere #Suchmaschine'n als Alternativen anbieten. Doch was taugen diese?»

UR isn't about user opinions or votes for [#feature#enhancements. It's about observing and analysing :mastodon: and competitors' features, its user #performance, its server logs, and its users' needs, to figure out what is/isn't working, investigate why, and then help inform #solution#design.]
And we’re off! @cscheid

For some reason I can’t log in to my xmpp server from any account other than my admin account. The client says that registration is only through invitation.
I was informed about something going wrong here and investigation showed that it’s worse than I thought. My Contabo Object Storage started claiming it’s full, even though it’s only half-full. I opened a ticket to tell them to fix their shit, but knowing their speed, it might be a few more days :-/...
Maybe as a stopgap, you can try cleaning up the auto-generated variants (alternate-size thumbnails) that pict-rs has stored? Might get you under whatever threshold was tripped while supports works out the main issue.
DELETE /internal/variants : Queue a cleanup for generated variants of uploaded images.`
If any of the cleaned variants are fetched again, they will be re-generated.
My instance is fairly conservative with media uploads and cached thumbnails, but it shaved off a few gigs that had accumulated over 6-7 months. Heads up that the call to that endpoint will return immediately as it just queues the job in pictrs.
#Datenschutz in den #Gesetz'en der #EU und #USA ist vorhanden, doch bringen diese wirklich einen #Schutz für die #User und nicht nur dem #Business? Ich gehe mal davon aus, dass viele #Internet-Dienste dies nicht wirklich einhalten oder nur knapp an deren Grenze. Ich habe mich damit noch zu oberflächlich befasst da die #Schweiz ihr eigenes hat. Wie siehst du es?
🧵 …und doch sammelt und verteilt Facebook die #Daten einzelne #User (siehe oben) an bis zu 48'000 Unternehmen! Danke @mauri für den Hinweis zu diesem Artikel auf @mimikama:
Die ursprünglichen #Forum'e im #Internet gelten schon länger als #veraltet und die scheinbare alternative Lösung #Reddit hat nun #KI integriert und schnuppern die #User aus. Die wahre #Alternative finden wir wieder im Fediverse und sind ua #kbin / #Mbin so wie #Lemmy. Ja das #Fediverse ist viel mehr als nur #Mastodon und Co und kommuniziert nicht nur auf einem Server, sondern in der #Community (ihr kennt es evt schon)
#Hacker's can read private #AI assistant chats even though they’re #encrypted.
All non-Google chat #GPT's affected by side channel that #leak's responses sent to #user's.
So today I learned that #apple#ipad#stagemanager only allows you to have four apps open, and if you open a fifth, it arbitrarily (and silently) closes an app you previously "staged." (Don't get me started about not allow me to size or move my apps they way I want to.)
Things like this tell me that the programmers and designers don't use their tools for real world work. 😂 Real problem when trying to do real work on a supposedly Pro version of a device.
#User#UserExperience#UX#UserResearch#AI: "Anthropomorphism, the inclination to ascribe humanlike qualities to machines, has long been used to manufacture a sense of connectedness between people and technology. We—people—remained users. But if AI is now a thought partner, then what are we?
Well, at least for now,we’re not likely to get rid of “user.” But we could intentionally default to more precise terms, like “patients” in health care or “students” in educational tech or “readers” when we’re building new media companies. That would help us understand these relationships more accurately. In gaming, for instance, users are typically called “players,” a word that acknowledges their participation and even pleasure in their relationships with the technology. On an airplane, customers are often called “passengers” or “travelers,” evoking a spirit of hospitality as they’re barreled through the skies. If companies are more specific about the people—and, now, AI—they’re building for rather than casually abstracting everything into the idea of “users,” perhaps our relationship with this technology will feel less manufactured, and it will be easier to accept that we’re inevitably going to exist in tandem." https://www.technologyreview.com/2024/04/19/1090872/ai-users-people-terms/
make URLs for communities, users etc as flexible as possible

Why is the comment form at the bottom of the thread instead of the top?

what happened to the fediverse in June 2023? why did everything go down?
Can't join on own xmpp server, only through admin account.
