Re: your edit - please feel free to open an Issue for PieFed about it. It’s MBIN content in Lemmy’s communities, so it’s something that needs attention (we should show it, even if Lemmy doesn’t). I’ll have a crack at fixing it next time I’m working on the code.
'Bin follows the same format as Mastodon for inline images, which is different from Lemmy.
Mastodon puts the details for an inline image inside an ‘attachment’ field, with nothing in the ‘content’ fields, whereas Lemmy doesn’t use an ‘attachment’ field at all for them, and includes the HTML for img src
in the content.
It’s always been the case that Mastodon didn’t show images from Lemmy comments. I don’t know if the reverse is a new thing or if it’s always been like that.
It depends. It seems like Lemmy batches up its activity to send to remote instances - so, per instance, it sleeps for a bit, then sends what it has. If both a Create and an Update are in the same batch, Lemmy just sends the Update. If they don’t happen to be in the same batch though, it sends both activities.
(this is outsider observation, not insider knowledge)
This is a great list. Note, though, that lemmyverse.net (and by extension, [email protected]) are less useful at the current moment than before because lemmyverse needs an update before it can crawl the increasing numbers of instances on 0.19.4 or above.
I wouldn’t do this personally, but if I did, I think I’d at least pipe the results to head -n 1
to only act on the first result.
‘subscribe to anything’ is handy, too. I’m subscribed to this post, for instance, so get notifications of new top-level comments.
Please use your mander account to inform OP that their instance is wildly behind .world - see here
The delay and eventual deletion of comments and votes will have an obvious effect on mander’s “hot” and “active” algos.
If you look at this post on mander, it’s not got any of the comments, so there’s no point anyone using a .world community to answer OP’s question.
That’s kinda funny, in a way - unsophisticated prevention for an unsophisticated attack.
Everyone trying to use the Internet normally suffers due to this kind of stuff.
You’re right about the cause: Lemmy’s front-end isn’t giving its backend enough time to do everything it needs to do for an unfamiliar commentary.
It works better if you copy / paste the link into Search. MBin effectively redirects all these links to its Search anyway, so maybe that’s an option.
I’ve had that problem too (messing around with test instances) - for anyone else wondering why: it’s because the RSA keypair for me@mydomain has changed, and remote instances fail to validate message headers signed with the new private key, because they’re still using their copy of an old public key.
That’s great to hear. There’s zero API at the moment though, let alone a stable one. PieFed is a monolith, without the backend / front-end split that necessitates an API.
It easy to add one, pending the addition of some missing features and a code reorganization that needs to happen anyway. At that point, hopefully some interested app developers will also be involved, to shape the API into something they may wish that other app’s APIs were like.
The Issue on GitHub - it was dormant for a long time but it looks like the new plug-in system has opened up some possibilities for it.
It seems to be quite a lot for the server it’s hosted on though (which is not the snappiest). There are, of course, still areas in the world where - for one reason or another - people still are effectively on dial-up speed-wise.
Buster should turn their attention to the size of the images uploaded to servers like this: 1.1M is arguably overkill for this one.
That’s the book I was referring to, yep.
I think most bread that’s available to buy is actually junk. Even the ‘wholemeal’ stuff, which itself obfuscates what you actually want: wholegrain. Ideally, the carbs percentage shouldn’t be more than 5 times the fibre percentage (according to the ‘How not to die’ book), but I’ve found that very little that actually meets that.
This is why people can become obese without understanding why: the over-processing of food considered as staples.
This isn’t really my area, but I’ll have a crack. From what I understand, Lemmy uses the ‘meta og:image’ tag to grab a thumbnail. Inspecting your site, I can see that that tag is in the html head. However, if you just ‘curl’ the URL, then it isn’t in the results. Using ‘curl’ for URLs from sites that are known to work in terms of generating thumbnails (theguardian and bbc), the tag is visible in the result.
This suggests that your site is using further scripting on page load to provide the meta tags, whereas perhaps Lemmy can only get them if they are provided immediately. There are other sites (like Reuters), who use additional scripting, that Lemmy is unable to get thumbnails for also (e.g. https://lemmy.world/post/16203031)
There seems to be some decent channels that are local to that instance (some PeerTube integration was recently added to PieFed, so I’m going by the list on this post ). From there, you can watch stuff from other instances, if course.
On lemmy, accessing it through the website, click on your username in the top-right, and choose ‘settings’. On that page, choose Export in the ‘Import/Export Settings’ section. This will give you a file to save to your computer.
On piefed, go to Account->Edit profile & settings, and use the ‘Import’ button to choose the file you just saved.
This will import your followed communities and blocked users.
