rbits,

Good to see ChatGPT respecting SCP safety protocols

rbits,

Top is pretty self explanatory. Hot takes a combination of how many votes they got and how recent they are. And I think active is based on the number of new comments, although I’m not entirely sure.

rbits,

I thought they were platypuses and I was confused

rbits,

Not very good yet though. Definitely beta

rbits,

No the app’s very good. I’m only talking about the Android theme. It says beta on it anyway though

rbits,

There’s nothing wrong with lemmy.world. I think most people aren’t looking for specifically a federated platform, they’re just looking for a platform, and it happens to be federated. In that case, it sorta makes sense to go with the most popular instance.

rbits,

Yes! Thanks, default comment sort was the thing I was waiting for. Now the only thing I need is swipe action cuatomisation and it’ll be as good as Apollo!

rbits,

Yooo Rory Blank comics on Lemmy! Rory Blank’s great.

rbits,

Ok but I don’t post on twitter. I only view posts on Twitter, and they’re pretty much all from relatively big people. So before I can move away, the people with big follower counts needs to move first. The only people on Mastodon that I follow are tech people. All the other people are on Twitter, Threads, or have just straight up left twitter altogether.

rbits,

Yeah but it’s true. It’s better to ensure Republicans don’t win than try to get your third party in. The problem is not the mindset of the people, it’s the first past the post voting system. If they used ranked choice voting instead, it wouldn’t be a problem.

rbits,

*used to be endorsed by Mojang. About a year ago Mojang said it’s no longer official. Presumably because of Fandom. See minecraft.fandom.com/…/Microsoft_status_update

rbits,

Don’t think it’s really necessary. The different wikis don’t really need to talk to each other. But an open source Gamepedia-like wiki software would be great. Maybe it exists already.

Wiki.gg is very good though.

rbits,

Yes, very cool. And about Threads, I will probably block Threads myself just because it’s a twitter clone, it doesn’t need to be on lemmy. But people should be able to make that decision themselves.

I think the average person just simply doesn't care about their privacy.

In some of the music communities I’m in the content creators are already telling their userbase to go follow them on threads. They’re all talking about some kind of beef between Elon and Mark and the possibility of a boxing match… Mark was right to call the people he’s leaching off of fucking idiots.

rbits,

That was not the case with lemmy. Most of the instances I tried required manual approval for signups. It took me going through like 4 different instances to find one that didn’t.

To be fair, most people reccomend lemmy.world now, and that doesn’t need manual approval. But there’s another problem, they can’t interact with Beehaw.

“Simply” picking an instance is not actually that simple. Most people just want to go to the site and sign up. Even with email, they know what Gmail and Outlook are. But on Lemmy, there’s no indication of what you’re supposed to pick. Even if you try to go with what seems like the “default” instance, lemmy.ml, you’re met with an announcement saying not to do thaf cause it’s overloaded.

People don’t want to have to make decisions, especially when they don’t have any information to go off of.

rbits,

It doesn’t even have to be NSFW. Modding any subreddit work.

Edit: Welp, nevermind. It seems Boost is down now.

rbits,

They have dogs, so that’s not really an option

YSK: Signal is a great secure private messenger app comparable to others on the market. (restoreprivacy.com)

“When you use Signal, your data is stored in encrypted form on your devices. The only information that is stored on the Signal servers for each account is the phone number you registered with, the date and time you joined the service, and the date you last logged on.”...

rbits,

Most of the world likely doesn’t use SMS anymore

That has not been the case from what I’ve seen (I’m Australian). The only widespread methods of communication I see are SMS and iMessage. Things like Discord and Instagram are only used among younger people.

Edit: Actually people do use Facebook messenger. Don’t know how many though

rbits, (edited )

But 1.4.1 will be the last update! Actually, 1.4.3. No, 1.4.4. No 1.4.5. For real this time surely…

rbits,

At least we’ll have Memmy and Artemis
