Broadband boss hits out at rivals over mid-contract price rises in c/unitedkingdom@feddit.uk

I hate these mid contract rises. BT/EE are always ridiculous in what they rip you off for each year.

As a Zen broadband customer though I'd highly recommend them!

Can confirm these are very sensitive. Mine is the other side of the house and picks up when we're cooking

If you had to restart your job at your current employer, what would you do differently? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Absolutely this. Sadly these days hard work is very rarely rewarded!

The ones round here that are fixed are done so poorly that they usually need doing again within a year!

I think this is probably the worst Christmas card I've seen. The bar is very low as it is 😂

Scaled sort option in Lemmy 0.19 (lemmy.team)
 

Now Lemmy 0.19 has been released it would be great to see the new "Scaled" sort option in Bean. Hopefully its a simple request.

The scaled option is basically a tweak to Hot, which gives equal weightings to small communities too.

What's your snow situation just now? in c/ukcasual@lemmy.world

Nothing here in the Midlands. Very very icy though!

Also because of the reasons you've said it means theres also no consequences to actions any more because of stretched public services

More development updates? (lemmy.team)
 

I know the devs had some other commitments that we due to end last month, but its still radio silent here.

Like others I am still having crashes and other issues. I did subscribe to a lifetime subscription and do feel a bit cheated that there's been no updates or even replies to bug reports.

Bean is still a great app and I hope development ramps up again, especially with all the backend changes coming to Lemmy soon!

Pictrs randomly returns 404 on old images (lemmy.team)
 

Hello all, I'm the instance admin over at lemmy.team.

I'm pretty new to lemmy and have been trying to manage the server over there and will eventually open things up when I'm confident of my abilities to maintain it.

I was doing some general server maintenance, which included updating pictrs to 0.4.3. Whist it appeared to work OK, a load of images, but not all just started randomly returning 404 errors.

All the images still appear to be there and going forward I plan on using object storage, but not quite there yet.

Have I broken something? I did try and downgrade again but still get the same issues. I don't understand enough about pictrs to debug it. I did try to set the folder permissions again just incase something broke there.

Show community avatar in feed (lemmy.team)
 

This is personal preference really, but I like how memmy has the community avatar on the feed.

I think it helps break the feed up a bit and makes it quicker to spot the community its coming from.

Appreciate its very much a personal preference. What do you think?
