Here's Gene Simmons Performing Motörhead's 'Ace of Spades': The Demon Pays Tribute to Lemmy
On 'Ace of Spades,' Gene Simmons gave vocal duties to drummer Brian Tichy while he focused on replicating Lemmy's incredible style on the bass guitar.
Et pour avoir accès à toute les fonctionalités, on a souvent recours au multicompte.
Pourquoi ne pas avoir une seule appli qui crée un compte maitre sur notre ordi et syncronise tes posts, tes abonnements, tes filtres ? Si l'instance tombe en raison de son budget, problème technique on conserverait nos données et on pourrait migrer facilement.
Cette meme appli pourrait gérer les alias. Et également cross-signer notre identité sur les appareils utilisés ?
Qu'en pensez-vous ? Ya des projets en ce sens ? Quel en serait le risque ou les limites ?
Pour moi l'oblectif est de faciliter la sauvegarde et l'exportation des données.
Pour le coup activitypods.org a l’air pas mal quand même, au-delà de la blague
What is the main shortcoming of ActivityPub ?
ActivityPub wants to make it possible to create decentralized apps. But to post videos, you need an account on a PeerTube instance. And to post images, you need an account on a PixelFed instance. You must thus handle multiple accounts, with their profile, list of followers, etc.
How does ActivityPods solve this shortcoming ?
With ActivityPods, you have only one profile, one outbox, one inbox and one list of followers - all in a single place. Applications connect to your Pod to post activities, read the inbox and fetch data. And of course they can connect to any existing fediverse application !
Voir que #lemmy utilise une crate (bibliothèque logicielle pour le langage rust) qui s'appelle i-love-jesus
Allez vois la crate en question, voir un badge "made with freedom from porn"
Voir que c'est un vrai truc apparemment https://madewithfreedomfromporn.dullbananas.com/
Wtf
PS: le wtf est plus lié au nom du paquet et aux découvertes subséquentes. Pas à la démarche elle même .
So I wanted to post a question about a #math problem, and I wanted to reach the widest possible math community on the #Fediverse. Aside from using the correct tag, my first thought was to find a #Lemmy or #kbin community/magazine to cc in the post. And … there isn't one. There's many. Just from a quick search I found https://lemmy.ml/c/mathematics https://lemmy.ml/c/math https://kbin.social/m/math
so now the question becomes … should I cross post to all of them? Or is that poor form?
I'm getting the impression that the kbin magazine would automatically include the post in the “microblog” section if properly tagged, which is actually one of the nice features of kbin, so maybe I can skip that one at least …
Oh, apparently my post was killed, I got a notification:
Your post https://programming.dev/post/13016987 has been removed as you do not have enough activity on your account to create image posts in that community

SCORPIONS: JAMES KOTTAK 'Was A Fantastic Person'
During an appearance on the April 12 episode of SiriusXM's "Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk", SCORPIONS guitarist Rudolf Schenker commented on the recent passing of the band's longtime drummer James Kottak.
Tbh I think the #Threadiverse like #Lemmy and #kbin would make a lot more sense if they were simply frontends and perhaps a backend too but just for the forums themselves. IOW, no accounts live in Lemmy or kbin, all users post from their preferred #fediverse account instead.
Sure you can already technically do that from your #Mastodon or #Misskey or whatever fedi you're in, but that means using whatever app you're on right now, which almost certainly means it's not a #linkaggregator UI. Not ideal at all.
If I had any good programming skills I'd make it so that the link aggregator is merely a client that uses the Mastodon (with #Pleroma extensions too) and Misskey APIs, treat (almost) all #ActivityPub actors as their own forums or subs, and each post would be a boost from said actor. Users authenticate from their preferred fedi account. Voting would be tallied by few special actors, which internally receive votes via direct messages (the app will make this transparent, but this also means you can technically vote without the app if you know the exact command), which will effectively make votes secret to non-admins like in #Reddit. Users can also choose which vote counters they want to rely from.
This would make the fediverse-powered link aggregator very flexible and minimal, imo. It may look janky but that's the general idea I have. :seija_coffee:
To make clear at the start: I do not intend to denigrate anyone with this post, or anyone's efforts. I have a genuine question which has puzzled me since I first went off to explore Lemmy and Pixelfed.
What purpose do people think that they serve in the Fediverse?
When I first asked, people told me that Lemmy served as an alternative to Reddit and indeed lemmy.world describes itself as "the World's Internet Frontpage". But Reddit exists solely because of the sheer amount of users it houses. Reddit stands as the poster child for user-generated content whereas lemmy.world has less than 8K users a day.
Pixelfed has a similar very-poor-cousin relationship to Instagram. If you have a keen desire for the world to see your images then Instagram will scratch that itch much better than Pixelfed. Posting your images here might also attract more attention, since the pool of possible viewers seems much, much larger.
The biggest group I found on Lemmy? Mastodon.lemmy.world ! I found several posts there like this: "[mastodon] is like making an entire post out of a throwaway comment. That's what I saw on mastodon, didn't choose to participate." At the very least this serves to demonstrate that different people have wildly different experiences on Mastodon because that bears no relationship to my experiences.
In the world of Big Tech people start new social media because they think they see a gap in a market, or a way of splitting off some users of a current platform into their all-new shiny silo. Here, though, everything can live alongside everything else, hence my question: what functions do Lemmy, Pixelfed, and others serve that Mastodon doesn't?
I think I do understand the function of some projects like Bookwyrm or Funkwhale. They have very specific goals: much more specific than "sharing media" or "discussing in threads", for example, both of which can happen in Mastodon. Their design highlights these differences.
I understand that I could well have missed the point completely here, and hence my question. I joined Lemmy and Pixelfed wanting to participate but the level of traffic seemed too low to generate the interaction I had hoped for. Did I look in the wrong places, or did I fail to notice the action, or did I look too early? (When I first joined Mastodon it seemed empty. Now it certainly doesn't.)
Let me give a concrete example. I have a fifteen year project for which I take a single photo every day. Should I post it here or on Pixelfed? What difference would it make? Does it matter?
And finally, as part of looking into Lemmy I explored a lot of apps. If you like Ice Cubes for Mastodon and want to explore Lemmy then I recommend Artic.
i would like to use #lemmy as a federated online tree with different communities forming the branches but it's hard to take seriously when the userbase turns it into reddit 2.0 with literal crossposting from r/gaming; there are even communities using the same nomenclature as their reddit counterparts ("mildlyinfuriating," "nottheonion," etc). lemmy has appropriated the cancer-culture that it was created to avoid.
i tried to make a community there and even posted interactive threads and i will continue to do so because i want to believe in the power of federated social media to form interesting online experiences, but it seems most would rather post motivational-posters-2.0 on l/retrogaming instead of participating in classics like "random thoughts .... WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?"
@buru5 oh wow nice. Hadn't seen anyone I know using it a bunch. And yeah, the reddit obsession is dumb. Same with people that repost Twitter screenshots here. Like, stoppppp 🤣
its an LEMMY instance..a #Fediverse version of #Reddit
you can answer to it from any mastodon instance you are on and participate in the discussion !😉 👍
