Talk to me about astronomy, photography, electronics, ham radio, programming, the means of production, and how we might expropriate them.

PorkrollPosadist,

Steve Huffman commends you on upholding his moderation policy.

PorkrollPosadist,

Does hesitation mean something else where you live?

Reddit has permanently suspended my account for supporting Lemmy.

I have been supporting Lemmy recently a lot and made posts about Lemmy that got big reach. Today, sadly the reddit account through which, I moderated a lot of subs and spent time on, comes to an end. The reason was because I spammed according to reddit, but the reality is that they have censored me because I was hurting Reddit....

PorkrollPosadist,

Lmao this shit is remining me of the hostile take-over of FreeNode.

PorkrollPosadist,

They could be pulling something sneaky here. The vast majority of people lurk, and most people who lurk probably don't even have accounts. If you haven't bothered to sign up, you probably haven't bothered to use the old interface or a third party application. It wouldn't surprise me if the vast majority of their traffic comes through the standard web interface, even if the stats for user activity paint a different picture.

PorkrollPosadist,

It is a mixed bag. When reading excessively long lines of text, it becomes difficult to locate the next line after completing one. Allowing lines of text to become too long is considered poor typography for this reason. When the lines are constrained to a reasonable length, the text becomes easier to read. Think about a page from a novel, or a sheet of A4 paper. They are shaped like that for a reason. Of course, images and video are another story. Constraining the size of an image or video with such wide margins does nothing to aid visibility.

PorkrollPosadist,

This could potentially be implemented as a Lemmy theme, which users would be able to select on the settings page.

PorkrollPosadist,

Back in 1995 we had an "Internet Phonebook." Literally a 4 inch thick book which listed domain names and brief descriptions. This was before / just as the search engines we know today were taking off. Google was founded in 1998. Alta Vista and Yahoo! had only just been founded in '95.
