Ah, fair enough. My response doesn’t apply then.

You misunderstand what the Hot rank is doing. It’s not balancing newness vs hotness, it’s scaling hotness according to community size. This might feel like newness if you’re focused on vote counts as a proxy for post age, but it’s a different approach. See https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3622 for details.
There’s a couple ways to think about this:
At any rate, this preference toward smaller communities in hot is a recent change and deliberate. While they might further tweak the scaling factors, I wouldn’t expect it to be drastically different. It sounds to me like what you want is Top, Active, or Most Comments. All these are unscaled according to community size and will get you top posts by their absolute metric rather than posts that are doing well relative to their community size.
I dunno how to hotlink, but if you scroll to the active users graph at https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy you can see there’s been like a 25% dropoff in active users since the peak in July. Lemmy has still grown 50x since May, and it’s much MUCH more active than it was then. But we’ve definitely crested a peak and not everyone who gave Lemmy a shot then is sticking around in a monthly basis.
This isn’t necessarily bad. Lemmy is still young and has many rough edges, it wasn’t realistic to win all the users that tried it on ease-of-use in a head to head with reddit. And Mastodon has had multiple growth waves interspersed with periods of declining usage, but with the spikes has grown ie remained stable overall. Early-stage commercial social media have big ups and downs in engagement and growth as well, and just like lemmy those ups and downs are often externally driven… when competitors mess up, when a big global news story hits, when a major sporting event happens… these can all be catalysts for one-time growth. It’s not a straight line.
Time will tell what user level we stabilize at in the short-term and what events spur new growth, but it’s normal to have a big expansion be followed by some degree of contraction.
Have you emailed admin@lemmy.world to try to get reinstated? This all seems like a pretty reasonable explanation if it isn’t repeated behavior.
And just today with a comment by a world admin! Hopefully they’ll get it sorted soon.
That’s an interesting report but it’s possible to “work” at different latencies. And unless you have specialized audio capture/playback hardware and have done some tuning and testing to determine the lowest stable latency that your system is capable of achieving… “works” for you is likely to mean something very different than it does to someone who does a lot of music production.
It remains an interesting question to some users whether Wayland changes the minimum stable latency relative to X and if so whether it does so for better or worse.
I’d consider asking in a Linux audio or music production community (I’m not aware of any on Lemmy that are big enough to have a likely answer though). If music production is a primary use case and audio latency matters to you, almost no general users are going to be able to comment on the difference between X and Wayland from a latency perspective. There may not be a difference, but there might and you won’t be likely to learn about it outside of an audio-focused discussion.
It may seem kinda stupid to consider that an accomplishment, but I feel quite genuinely proud of myself for actually succeeding at this instead of just throwing in the towel…
Way to go. I’ve been at this a decent while and do some pretty esoteric stuff at work and at home… but this loop of feeling stupid, doing the work, and feeling good about a success has been a constant throughout. I spent a week struggling to port some advanced container setups to podman a month or so ago, same feeling of pride when I got them humming.
It’s not stupid to be proud of an accomplishment even if it’s a fundamental one that’s early in a bigger learning curve. Soak it in, then on to the next high. Good luck.
Is there an issue for this in the GitHub project? It sounds like you’ve done the hard work of diagnosing the issue and an upstream fix seems likely a modest effort given this info.
Do you have a source on this? 2w later world is still missing and this post is the first mention of it I’ve found in a few minutes of sleuthing.
No, Beehaw defederated your instance. The open-source community on lemmy.ml someone else already mentioned is your best bet.
I feel like you’re combatively advocating for a specific vision and not collecting and processing feedback as your OP suggests, at any rate… you don’t seem to be understanding what I was trying to say at all… but it’s not something I’m going to fight about with someone who is questioning if I know what a multi-reddit is and dismissing client-side techniques as nonsense without seeming to understand why they were being discussed in the first place.
I’ll leave with these thoughts, do with them what you will:
What you’ve described is one way. It could also be a filtered view based on the subscribed/all feed which provides a single API call that can return material from multiple communities. I’m not suggesting that a client-side only solution is a GOOD solution. But from an information-flow perspective, I’m suggesting that multireddits are a “local” function. Theu are so local that they’re possible without server-side support at all, and especially local enough not to require representation in the federated feed… which is a more significant change with potential impacts to other federated projects like kbin and mastodon… and shouldn’t require relaxing privacy constraints in any case.
Anyway, what’s the feedback on privacy issue with allowing any user to have read-only access to your community subscribe list…
I wouldn’t want this in exchange for multi-reddits. You can a little bit infer the communities someone subscribes to from their comment activity, but as it stands one can choose to privately lurk and this would eliminate that… silently for existing users in the absence of some big series of announcements to make it well known.
Why are multi-reddits a thing that involves federation at all? Multi-reddits as they exist on Reddit itself could be implemented entirely client-side, the server side stuff just syncs the behavior of multiple client apps. Why does the concept of a multi-reddit need to extend outside of the user’s instance?
The headline of the article is just The History of the Modern Graphics Processor
, though. OP is having a fever dream with that post title, it has nothing to do with the article title or with the article.
Did the government invent OP to make us question Betteridge’s law of headlines? Has the law of headlines become too dangerous to ignore?
OP is claiming that they agree with lemmy world’s defederation choices driven by CSAM, which is unquestionably nonsense. Lemmy world admins have made several in depth posts explaining defederation decisions and none of them had anything to do with CSAM. In some jurisdictions, it would likely be illegal to give such an explanation as it would amount to creating a pointer to a source of CSAM that hasn’t yet been taken down. By and large, these things are reported directly to law enforcement and cleaned up quietly, without showing up in modlogs… and in many jurisdictions the law REQUIRES handling CSAM in precisely that fashion in order to prevent it from being archived before it’s taken down.
Is there a non-zero amount of CSAM in the Fediverse? Sadly yes. Once you achieve a certain scale, people do all the things… even the bad ones. This research paper (from Stanford, it’s reputable and doesn’t include or link to CSAM) discusses finding, in a sample of 320k Mastodon posts, over 100 verified samples of CSAM and something like 1k-3k likely adjacent posts (for example that use associated keywords). It’s pretty likely that somewhere on Lemmy there are a non-zero number of such posts, unfortunately. But moderators of all major instances are committed to taking appropriate steps to respond and prevent reoccurrence.
Additionally, blahaj.zone defederated from lemmynsfw over the adorableporn community. The lemmynsfw admins take reports of CSAM very seriously, and the blahaj admins stopped short of accusing them of hosting actual CSAM. But they claimed that models of verified age “looked too young” and that the community was courting pederasts. These claims were largely baseless, but there was a scuffle and some of the secondary and tertiary discussion threw around terms like CSAM loosely and incorrectly.
I think OP is probably hearing echoes of these kinds of discussions 3rd hand and just not paying attention to details. There’s certainly no well-known and widely federated CSAM communities, and all responsible admins would take immediate action if anything like that was found. CSAM doesn’t factor into public federation decisions, because sources of CSAM can’t be discussed publicly. Responding to it is part of moderation at scale though, and somewhere some lemmy admin has probably had to do so.
Why would you use LVM to configure the RAID-1 devices? Btrfs supports raid1 natively.
Two tips:
I have not tried running WINE yet but I plan on doing so soon.
Steam “just works” on Linux, you can install it via flatpak (which I use) or from their deb repo. It includes “Proton”, which is a fancy bundle of wine and some extra open source valve sauce to make it nice and easy to use. Any game that runs on the steam deck also runs on Linux via proton, and there’s no messing around at all. It looks and feels just like steam on Windows, and thousands of games just work with no setup or config beyond clicking the big blue and green buttons to install and run. Not EVERY games works, but tons do. I’d heavily recommend this over raw wine to a beginner.
The second tip is not to ask what you can do on Linux. The answer, to a first approximation, is that you can do everything on Linux that you can do on Windows or OSX. I daily drive all three, and mostly do the same stuff on them. Instead, ask YOURSELF what you WANT to do on Linux. Then Google and ask us HOW to do it… or what the nearest approximation is if the precise thing you want to do doesn’t work on Linux.
If this is true, what is the admin of the reporting user even supposed to do
Decide what instances to defederate. They can check up on:
And finally they can defederate if they don’t like what they find.
For the latest version of lemmy, hot sort works in the new fashion. There is a pull request with further implementation details linked in the GitHub issue.
