Sometimes federation takes a bit, especially from some of the instances that go down more like feddit.de

I can see the comment on the thread you linked when checking it now programming.dev/comment/9725576

The comment language is set to german, do you have that disabled in your language settings?

Hey! Im one of the programming.dev admins and the main mod of this community

I can look into taking over the pr once I get time for it later today or later in the week

Trending communities is scuffed and doesnt actually show trending communities. Usually if theres a new community made within the last 2 days it shows there otherwise it shows the most dead communities as they are getting large subscriber activity relative to their MAU

Vacant collects a lot of different kinds of communities ranging from unmoderated ones that havent been taken over yet by a new mod team to ones that are admin started to start getting some content on that subject (usually if thats the case ill be posting in it on my other account)

Yeah pictrs has been having issues recently. Some images load but others dont and you cant upload any new images until we get it fixed

Admin here, there should be nothing censored atm apart from a couple scam links

Not sure why that says removed but its not on our end (and its like that everywhere). Lemmy probably has some handling where it also censors if the posters instance says so

Discoverability of communities across instances

If the spirit of the fediverse is to spread everything across small instances, then i think it would be really important to make communities, especially niche communities, easier to discover across instances. Since it is not planned to crawl federated instances community catalog, i think instance admins, or maybe even the lemmy...

As more people use lemmy-federate.com more niche communities will show up in most large instances by default

Imo its the ideal solution since it populates the posts in the all feed for people who don’t know about the site to still see

Ategon,

Yeah, disabled accounts means the instance doesn’t have a bot from the site on their instance so the site can’t federate them. Usually this would be not accepting the user application

Lemmy.world isnt in the site but most other large instances are

Ategon,
@Ategon@programming.dev avatar

Even with the disabled instances, communities that get added onto there reach a much larger section of people than external community browsers do as casual users that just check the site once a day or something and don’t pay attention to external sites can still stumble on them without knowing the federate site exists or needing to know explicit community names

Ideally more instances would get added onto there but its still fine like this. Been getting some nice interactions and starting activity on new programming.dev communities

It looks like you were temp banned from the linux community for 3 days

The comment you made was transphobia which goes against the programming.dev code of conduct. I suggest reading the comment of the user who replied to you and learning how to respect people more

This comment

https://programming.dev/pictrs/image/bd3e4978-62eb-45fd-be9d-f5a7a00f01d9.png

does not qualify as a “respectful conversations where no one is insulting each other, or anyone else”

Yeah lemmy currently doesn’t send notifications about moderation actions

Some mod teams add it in through manually dming (which usually will happen here if someone on the admin team is warning, banning, etc. you (apart from site bans which the user wouldn’t be able to access their messages from) and its not just an obvious spammer or bot) or code their own systems to notify about actions

Everything’s viewable in the modlog though and you can filter by yourself to see all actions made relating to you

It works, those statuses are just a bit misleading

How it works is it subs to a community (from all instances connected to it) until someone from an instance subs and then it unsubs in that instance. In the previous version of the site when it unsubbed it would mark the instance it unsubbed from as completed on that community (although seems to be a bit broken here)

Rather than being limited to posts themselves it probably makes more sense to attach it to certain chunks of something. For example a block of code so that people copying the code to use in their own projects after receiving help actually have the license to do so rather than that just being verbal (could make it default to MIT No Attribution or some other license the community specifies). This same logic can be extended to images (although probably with no default for those since theres way too many possible cases)

I havent looked into FOSS keyboards much but It looks like they’re licensed as GPL on the repo. The CC BY-SA is for the project icon
