Hello sorcerer. Please erase “Man, I feel like a woman” by Shania Twain. It annoys me anyway, but it not like it makes being a woman sound especially inspiring either (“Colour my hair, do what I dare” - woah, slow down there Shania!). Thanks.

Yeah. There’s no wildcard call. One thing you could do to script it would be pull JSONs from https://data.lemmyverse.net - use one for the initial effort, then subsequent ones to track new communities. You’d definitely want to filter it - as you’ve noticed the vast majority of that 30k are dead or spam or something you wouldn’t want for one reason or another (e.g. communities from instances you’ve defederated from).
As for what bots do, it depends on how they were programmed I suppose. There’s a bonkers one on https://leaf.dance that just seems to crawl comments and subscribe to any ! links it finds, but there are others (I can’t remember their names) where it’s more of a manual job (the mods of a community submit the details to it).
is it in reality not “all” but only “all posts that at least one user of this instance is subscribed to”?
Exactly this, yes. Not literally ‘all’ (a brand new instance would have nothing in its All feed). This is what was meant by ‘partial data set’ - everything for a subscribed community (from the moment it was subscribed to), but nothing for a community that no-one’s subscribed to.
Some instances run bots to populated their All feed more than what would happen naturally (with the idea being that the bot unsubscribes when a human does)
Oh this is one of those new-fangled ‘immutable’ OSs. I just watched a PeerTube Video from The Linux Experiment about it - it looks complicated but it’s something I’d like to try out at some point in the future.
Since you’ve broadened it out to TV, I’ll use that as an excuse and mention that I think Nicholas Britell’s score for Andor is pretty cracking too.
Crikey - it was only added a few hours ago and it’s already all kicking off on their GitHub’s Issues page.
Generally: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues
(As already mentioned, your specific request is a non-starter)
Tildes website if you’re interested.
Yeah (well, nerds anyway). With Lemmy, if you do curl --header 'accept: application/activity+json' --location https://lemmy.wtf/c/gametrailers/followers | jq .
it tells you there’s 68 but not who they are. With PeerTube you can do curl --header 'accept: application/activity+json' --location https://peertube.wtf/video-channels/startgametrailers/followers?page=1 | jq .
and it provides names (including me and you and a bot from leaf.dance)
(edit to fix URLs)
It’s perhaps worth mentioning that - unlike Lemmy - PeerTube makes subscriber info public. I mean, it’s no great secret that I’ve subbed to your channel at [email protected], but it’s the kind of thing that some people care about.
Just a temporary thing with Lemmy I think - PeerTube (like Lemmy and Mastodon) are already part of the fediverse. You used to be able to successfully subscribe to PeerTube channels from Lemmy (when it was on 0.18), and likely will be able to in future (it’s just a Lemmy bug that needs a fix).
It’s federated like Lemmy, so each platform has ‘local videos’ and an ‘all videos’ section. E.g. https://fedi.video/videos/local and https://fedi.video/videos/overview
Of course, since it’s federated, it means other platforms like PieFed, MBIN and Mastodon can access the same stuff, so you don’t need to register anywhere if you’re on one of them.
The “I’d buy that for a dollar!” guy from Robocop.
Hey! This guy doesn’t know about the three seashells!
I think it’s just a desire to indicate some uncertainty about something (like - I’m not an expert, my opinion on whatever could change with time or new information). A full stop seems arrogant somehow.
I realise it’s not a good impulse and mostly resist. Mostly …
(that last one’s nothing to do with the above reasoning, it’s just a line from Aliens that’s stuck in my head).
You can set a gif’s FPS yeah. There’s an app called gif.ski that lets you play around with this - add a folder full of PNGs to it and render a gif. The lowest the UI lets you select for FPS is 1 - I made one and stuck it here so you can see what that looks like.
You can use the same tool on the command line if you want a half frame per second rate, e.g.:
gifski --output interesting.gif --fps 0.5 --quality 70 *.png
Wanting to end all text communications with ellipses …
I don’t know if there’s any tools that’ll do that - I imagine it’d be an animation that you’d need to tediously build frame by frame. Gif is especially inefficient to simulate slowness because you need a new frame even when it’s the same as the previous one, so the file would be massive. So you’d want to convert it to MP4 (which anything hosting it would probably do automatically) or use webp - this doesn’t have particularly widespread support but it lets you create animations with a ‘delay’ element so you can hold certain frames. An example of that is here: https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/218d951c-67b3-4589-ac94-8f661b32a8fc.webp (wait for it …)
Ranked by complexity:
Think we should maybe walk before we run here.
He’s posted before that Day 1 sales covered the cost the device itself, so a decent chuck of everything after that will have been pure profit. It was probably always doomed, what with YouTube being YouTube, so it doesn’t look like he’s too shaken up about it.
