It is currently possible, through Lemmy's API, to create accounts automatically and without limit if verification by email address or captcha is not activated. I'd advise you to activate one or both of them NOW!

After registering x number of accounts (currently I could do thousands), all you have to do is list all the existing communities for each of the account to publishes one new post per community, or more. I'll leave you to picture the mess.

(I apologise to the administrators of sh.itjust.works, I should have done the test with my own server.)

Non-official community to share the features you'd like to see on Lemmy.

I'm currently setting up a Python wrapper for Lemmy's API, my aim being to develop a moderation bot (more info here), so I'm building the wrapper as the bot requests it.

It's my first time doing this, so don't hesitate to contribute if you find it useful: https://codeberg.org/retiolus/Lemmy.py

Usage example:

from lemmy import Lemmy

# Login to your account
lemmy = Lemmy("https://lemmy.ml")
lemmy.log_in("username_or_email", "password")

# Get a community ID
community_id = lemmy.discover_community("community_name")

# Get all posts from a community by ID
community_posts = lemmy.post.list(community_id=community_id)

# Get the modlog of your server
modlog = lemmy.modlog.get()

# Post a new publication on a community
lemmy.post.create(community_id=community_id, name="First Post!", body="This is the first community post.")

The following tutorial provides step-by-step instructions to install Lemmy, a link aggregator for the fediverse, on Ubuntu 22.04. It includes the installation of Lemmy backend, Lemmy UI (web frontend), and the configuration of a reverse proxy with TLS using Nginx.

You should be able to install Lemmy without any errors. If you have any, please let me know. I intend to extend this tutorial to Lemmy upgrades, migration and deletion, and thus update the official documentation.

As some subreddits continue blackouts to protest Reddit's plans to charge high prices for its API, Reddit has informed the moderators of those subreddits that it has plans to replace resistant moderation teams to keep spaces "open and accessible to users."

Edit, there seems to be conflicting reporting on this issue:

While the company does “respect the community’s right to protest” and pledges that it won’t force communities to reopen, Reddit also suggests there’s no need for that.

@dansup@mastodon.social made a special page on fediDB to make it easier to track growth.

I can click Update 50,000 times, and I'll still have 2 "components with updates" in the Pop!_OS store.

This output of sudo apt-get full-upgrade is:

The following packages have been kept back:

I don't get why libgd3 and libgd3:i386 are kept back.

I'm confused, on GitHub Memmy is for iOS and Android and in the community on Lemmy, Android is not mentioned...

If Memmy is also available for Android, are there any existing builds to be able to test the app?

I'm looking for a radio alarm clock project that I could do with a Raspberry Pi or a NodeMCU (ESP32/ESP8266), a small LCD screen and a small speaker.

Do you have any ideas? Does it exist? If not, how should I approach the project? Any advice on speakers for the Raspberry Pi?
