Dang you’re here too? Did you leave reddit?

Official Reddit announcement posts now follow a well-defined archetype. The latest accessibility announcement is just the latest example.

In the old days, official reddit announcement posts were a little different. Spuds, or another high-level admin would reply to a comment. Dozens of users would then reply with something like “When are you going to ban r/the_donald.” The threads were massive and quickly became unwieldy, but they seemed organic....

I’m still in the transition phase. I was pretty intertwined with the site so it takes a little time to unwind all of that.

I’m trying. It’s hard when they keep falling face-first into the pavement on a weekly basis.

Society will never progress while Fox News is allowed to remain on the air. Fox News creates digital walls to segregate the audience from reality.

Rogan should be deplatformed. We don’t have a robust enough education system for ‘free speech’ to work when people like Rogan are just lying to people.

Just wow.

Interesting solution to the problem…

My highest voted comment of all time got 11.4K upvotes. It was a comment on a meme thread with a blockquote of some text from the meme.

My comment consisted of one word: “gold”.

Heard. Twitter seems like the main nazi site now though.

How would you propose getting every mod in Reddit to follow you plan? You’re talking about something in the range of 40,000 people or more.

A lot of subs will ban you for overwriting comments with a script.

This is more a function of how Reddit’s databases and listings work. Automated tools can’t find all of your content because of the limitations on listings. It’s really funny though that people are ascribing abilities to a company with a very low competency level.

And predictably the only guy in the thread who understands how Reddit’s listings work was downvoted. I guess some things never change.

It appears Mlem doesn’t allow you to edit comments. Weird.

Reddit has given us plenty of legitimate reasons. It’s disappointing seeing people fall for conspiracy theories. Reddit doesn’t care that you’ve deleted your comments. It really reveals something I think, and that is a self centered-ness that people have that reddit would find their comments so valuable that they would create a mechanism to restore them after deletion. People who propagate this conspiracy theory reveal more about themselves than anything else.

Reddit uses something called listings which contain 1000 items. If you have more than 1000 comments on your account, you will only ever be able to view the last 1000 of them on a page like that. If you delete 50 comments, the listing is now only 950, it does not refill.

Republicans change the rules if they ever see that they’ll hurt them in the future.

How can I run a Lemmy instance on a rPi 4? I've tried several methods and both fail because docker didn't support arm v7 or v8

It’s been a rough day. First I tried the lemmy-easy-deploy script because, hey, I’m lazy. That failed, so I then tried the ansible playbook and had some success with it. At first, Let’s Encrypt was not working, and I had to sort out my dynamic dns provider....

This got me working, but, for anyone who comes across this, the file to edit is lemmy.yml, and you drop in ghcr.io/ubergeek77 for dessalines. The only hurdle once I did that was installing docker-compose on the pi. Unfortunately you can’t just install docker-compose with pip3 install docker-compose. Follow these instructions to install docker-compose. dev.to/…/how-to-install-docker-and-docker-compose…

Then just run the ansible playbook.

Thank you for this post. I was hoping I could ask you a couple of questions because I also had to make some modifications to get Lemmy up and running. I don’t have email yet because my isp blocks post 25 and I haven’t gotten around to requesting an unblock yet.

I see you’ve modified your hjson file to use gmail. The default config syntax for email is:


<span style="color:#323232;">email: {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    smtp_server: "postfix:25"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    smtp_from_address: "noreply@{{ domain }}"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    tls_type: "none"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  }```
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">My question is, can I just drop in your email syntax with my information and the instance will use gmail instead of the default?
