Looks like 2023 will be remembered as the year of big size enshittification. So many companies going to shit. Reddit with restricting API access, Twitter with...everything really, Google with its DRM and now Unity...great year so far, right?

If you take out the AI part it still holds true. 2023 is full of bullshit.

This is one of the most popular posts this week here with more than 4 HUNDRED comments. I don't know what you view as a discussion but I think this was a pretty successful attempt at creating one.

It looks like most people don't have enough braincells to do such a simple task. Isn't it just nice to live in a world like this?

Most of the alt templates suck and the og is still good. Why change?

 

I get why World and many others defederated from Burggit. Obviously it has questionable content which is not great to have stored on big servers for legal reasons.

But look at Threads, owned by a company which steals data and causes harm to anyone in any possible way. If you don't see their actions questionable as well and don't see how they are parasites trying to leech on the fediverse and suck everything away then there was no point in defederating from any questionable instances.

The only thing you missed is that the devs actually couldn't keep their own deadline for the api change so until now the 3rd party apps still worked.

Actually people can custom patch the apps with their own api key and they still work. This is how I stay up to date with these news.

Atmosphere on Reddit became quite bizarre nowadays. Users are angry against the mods who kept the subs restricted/private instead of the company itself. The stupidity is insane.

I'm fucked up, I read it as nutcracker for a sec

The API changes rolled out recently. I guess op is referring to that.

I didn't think infinity would be finite but tomorrow we'll reach the end of Infinity for sure

Cool username. Didn't know custom fonts(?) were allowed

Yeah, came here to say this. The fediverse sites are so diverse that instead of trying to implement everything in one gigaapp it's better to just browse the site in the browser.

I second auto tab discard. I like my thousand tabs and it keeps them unloaded when not used actively.

 

Is it a server issue, maybe someone else has this problem too, or is it local to me somehow?

 

Does anyone know some good video editing programs which don't collapse under their own weight while trying to load a video? I just wanna make some short memes and shitposts!

 

Charlie doesn't really like the redditors but I think this video is still good to create more exposure for the current situation.

 

I noticed that some instances put a registration wall behind their communities. If you are registered in instance A, you can search for a specific community in instance B but cannot see the full list of communities there. Is there a workaround (besides asking someone from B to give a list of the instance)?

 

You can long tap on the username of the thread you want to hide. It was not the most intuitive thing for me but I found it accidentally and maybe I can save you from the searching!

 

Years ago an app named Candid shut down which caused a pretty big uproar in that community. A lot of people panicked because there was no real alternative that featured post anonimity (basically you had an assigned username to a single post and you could start fresh in another). Lots of people migrated to reddit and others to discord and in the end people let go of their need to be fully anonymous.

Now with the Lemmy migration people don't even have to give up features this big and actually they are driven away by their hatred towards a platform, not by its non-existance so it can be more convenient even if there are some things we have to learn here.

 

I recently bought a new laptop which can run Lexy's Legacy of the Dragonborn modpack and set it up. It took me ~2 weeks to put everything together but it works and I'm enjoying the mods! Especially the museum which helps tremendously with my desire to hoard items.
