Today, I worked on the user and tag pages to make them operate a bit faster and consume fewer hardware resources. Additionally, I implemented the first iteration of marking new comments in visited threads and posts. This is a test change and will be improved over the next few days. It's progressing a bit faster than I initially...
Today, I began testing a new instance deployment process, which is an absolute must-have before the release. I also initiated preparations for new test environments that I will be using for developing the federation. The first iteration of comment wrapping has been introduced on the instance as well.
Jokes aside, will this deployment process perhaps open up the possibility for beta testers? I think you've mentioned before that you have an experimental fork that you use for testing. I'd love to help out in that process.
I just wanna get to know people and maybe make a few friends. I’ve tried a bunch of servers over the years, both general and specific ones but it never really worked out I guess? (I’m a pretty awkward person to talk to, maybe that’s why^^)
Today, I managed to implement the points I described in RTR#19, and most of the changes are already visible. The remaining ones will be pushed on Monday. Before the release, I'll try to address three more things from the title, which I started working on earlier and are lingering on local branches. I don't want to make any...
@ai6yr Yeah, I guess I shouldn't be surprised something trained for convincingly telling stuff regardless of their truth is gaining a religious following. Especially since it's thought process is well hidden.
It kind of makes me think of how odd it would have been if many of the old forums named themselves like bookclub.phpbulletin.com, metalheads.vbulletin.net, or something....
Today, I fixed some visual shortcomings. It is now possible to change images during post editing. The rules of the magazine have been included in the description on Fediverse to avoid misunderstandings with Lemmy users. Some changes are already on the instance, and the rest will be pushed by morning....
Hi @maegul, I just wanted to let you know. It's not perfect yet, but it's something I'll be working on in the coming months after the first release. Thanks for pointing it out, it's a relatively simple change, but it makes a significant difference in the overall experience.
Today, I fixed the communication with Lemmy instances that partially stopped working two days ago - it was related to content from internal magazines. I slightly changed the priority for tomorrow's update - first, spoiler support and the ability to filter the /sub feed by magazines, users, or domains separately will be...
Was ancient Greek mythology particularly helpful for them to understand the world around them?
Well, I'd say their polytheistic structure made them more open minded and assigning reasons to events even if they're made up made them look for causality. Not that I'm an expert by any means but I'm sure it wouldn't stick around if it was useless.
Fair enough. Also, it wouldn't even need to be useful for the general populace. It might've been a controlling tool like monotheistic religions in the middle age or a good way to dupe some wealthy people into buying cheap trinkets.
Could you maybe give users the ability to exclude certain communities/hashtags? Some hashtags associated with communities like #fediverse seem to be overused to the point that following it barely filters content.
I've seen a good bit of debate on Kbin surrounding downvotes, so what are your thoughts? Should they exist? Should they be shown separately? Should you be able to see who downvoted?...
The poster doesn't need to care about it. Just the ones looking at the posts to see which ones are a waste of time. Hell, the algorithm might already be doing that anyways so even they don't need to care about it.
Feature comparison - kbin vs Lemmy
There's a chance that I have forgotten something or missed something....
RTR#25 Further performance improvements (user page, tag page), marking new comments
Today, I worked on the user and tag pages to make them operate a bit faster and consume fewer hardware resources. Additionally, I implemented the first iteration of marking new comments in visited threads and posts. This is a test change and will be improved over the next few days.

RTR#24 Setting up test environments for federation development, comment wrapping
Today, I began testing a new instance deployment process, which is an absolute must-have before the release. I also initiated preparations for new test environments that I will be using for developing the federation. The first iteration of comment wrapping has been introduced on the instance as well.
What are some good casual Discord servers for talking to people from all over the world?

RTR#23 Wrapping comments, hiding threads/posts, marking new comments in threads/posts, aggregate view
Today, I managed to implement the points I described in RTR#19, and most of the changes are already visible. The remaining ones will be pushed on Monday. Before the release, I'll try to address three more things from the title, which I started working on earlier and are lingering on local branches. I don't want to make any...
clients are the libre future; I hope kbin catches up
On desktop kbin is 5x better than vanilla lemmy....
Why do a lot of fediverse instances put their software (i.e. Lemmy/Mastodon) in their name somehow?
It kind of makes me think of how odd it would have been if many of the old forums named themselves like bookclub.phpbulletin.com, metalheads.vbulletin.net, or something....
RTR#22 Further improvements interspersed with code refactoring
Today, I fixed some visual shortcomings. It is now possible to change images during post editing. The rules of the magazine have been included in the description on Fediverse to avoid misunderstandings with Lemmy users.

RTR#20 Fix communication with the Threadiverse, new Support Us page
Today, I fixed the communication with Lemmy instances that partially stopped working two days ago - it was related to content from internal magazines. I slightly changed the priority for tomorrow's update - first, spoiler support and the ability to filter the /sub feed by magazines, users, or domains separately will be...
Why does everything seem like clickbait?
Things are going downhill far too quickly. Attention grabbing headlines and no useful content from articles rule the internet....
Why Bluesky over sth like Activitypub? (slrpnk.net)
Is it really decentralized and private?
