Admin of https://kglitch.social, an experimental Kbin instance.
A convicted rapist (also charged with 91 other felonies) running for president, with as much chance as winning as the other guy.
Yes
I will very soon. For now, I’m collecting email addresses - https://rimu.geek.nz/piefed-comms/?p=subscribe
That wouldn’t be cool. At all.
I’d prefer to go in the other direction (i.e. away from permissive) and add a ‘no fascists or tankies or genocide’ clause to AGPL, actually. ChatGPT assures me that would be bad and possibly illegal (?!) tho, so I might just end up putting stuff in the code of conduct which achieves the same ends.
My first instinct is to go for AGPL but the whole licensing debate isn’t something I’ve ever really engaged with so I’m not really making an informed decision about that.
What’s the advantages of a more permissive license?
I’m building a Lemmy/Kbin clone, using Python (Flask framework). I’m about 3 months in so the basics are there but it’s definitely still half-baked…
If this sounds like something you’d like to contribute to, pop your email address into this form https://rimu.geek.nz/piefed-comms/?p=subscribe and I’ll keep you in the loop!
Interesting, that’s hardly noticeable. Perhaps your instance has less federation relationships happening than mine, or something.
btop!
It’s very pretty.
Here is a screencast of what happens to my 2 core server when I post something - https://kglitch.social/activitypub_cpu_and_net.mp4.
I run a single user instance, more or less, so there is little chance of some other user causing this load.
Some of it will be due to the way Kbin is built but I believe any software using ActivityPub to communicate will run into similar issues sooner or later, especially with network traffic usage.
Demo post
Yeah. A lot of hand-wringing has gone on about it, e.g. https://gist.github.com/jdarcy/60107fe4e653819138396257df302eef. I’ll post this and then show you a video of server activity that results.
They are synced. There is an insane data volume, yes. It is hell.
The first one.
AppleScript. Amazing little language that comes with the OS. Can be used to to automate any app, send keystrokes, etc. Completely ignored by Apple and very underrated.
Another anecdote:
My girlfriend and I bought our phones (different makes and models, sadly) at the same time, about a year ago. I have been doing 80/20 religiously while she dgaf and does what she likes. I have not noticed any change in how much charge mine holds while she has started to complain that hers needs charging more often. Her phone cost twice as much as mine.
Judging by the upvotes, this is a common approach. I had no idea! Thanks.
If you have to block that many, it implies a UI issue with Lemmy. Something is wrong.
If there was a better way to find new communities to subscribe to, what would it look like? If there was a built-in community browser like https://lemmyverse.net/communities, would that help? What is lacking about the subscription process that causes you to use “All” instead?
Everything we build is on the shoulders of what came before. Your contribution now creates a world that makes other people’s work possible in the future. While the literal artifacts you produce will not be there for long, for the time they existed they provide a small piece of the platform upon which the next generation will be created. Like sand eventually forming rock.
You know how if your email app stops working you can just install another one and still communicate with anyone else with an email address? The fediverse is like that except it’s not email it’s twitter and reddit and YouTube all rolled into one. So if twitter was part of the fediverse when Musk bought it and destroyed it you could move to another server with a better moderation policy and pick up where you left off.
