The dev of Jerboa based it off of Boost for Reddit. The only way you would get an exact copy is if the dev of boost decided to move over to Lemmy. Doubtful, but possible.

YSK that all lemmy instances have an open moderation log by default!

Unsure, I'd have to trawl the code base to answer that. Maybe a dev can chime in and clarify?

Boost is great! A lot of the 3rd party apps are lovingly made. Stinks that Reddit decided money was more important than a user-base. But now we have Lemmy, which hopefully won't even be able to be like that.

Which distro has the best GUI in your opinion?

I also enjoy Mint. Simple and easy to use. I wouldn't consider myself old, so I think you shouldn't either!

Any of y'all have a NAS? What's your setup?
I'd like to build a NAS. Does anyone have a simple guide I could follow? I do have experience building my personal computers. I could search online for a guide, but a lot of the time small communities like this will have the end-all be-all guide that isn't well known.

What could Lemmy.ml do to avoid becoming the next Reddit after a decade?
Reply in thread
After a while though it devolves into drivel. Folks "debating" just becomes a volley of insults. Mods probably have notifications enabled on threads, so if I thread blows up....well you can see my point.

At the end of the day AI should be classified as what it is, a tool. We could embrace this tool and use it to our advantage, or we can fight it all the way up...even as more folks start to use it.

How’s everyone liking this so far?

Lemmy is designed to scale horizontally, which means that it can grow infinitely large. As long as the server owner has the funds and is willing to pay for beefier servers the potential of a instance growing is massive. This however does come with it's fallbacks. Moderating that many people can be very difficult, also if not many folks donate to keep the server up then it fails. If you see yourself using this site long term I'd highly consider donating to your instance!

Absolutely nothing wrong with that. Speaking of which I'm starting to feel comfortable enough suggesting Linux as an OS for folks looking for a PC. It's nice, because it really brings old PCs to life. If say my older parent wanted a computer I could buy a decent used one and just slap Mint on there and it would suit their needs.

I have a confession to make... I code in Comic Sans

Yeah but does it have ligatures? That's my hard pass on coding fonts.

Some instances of Lemmy disable certain things. If you are on Beehaw (like myself) they disable downvotes, and the creation of new sub-communities.

Reddit Blackout Plans are really heating up...
Reply in thread
I agree with you. Standard tactics with this sort of shit. Say you'll do something outrageous and when folks get mad enough roll back your plans enough that don't quite fuck over users as hard. Repeat ad infinitum. Users think they've won but in reality they've given up another inch.

what videogame do you have the most hours in?
Reply in thread
Same here. Just under 1300 hours in Rocket League. Quit after the move to Epic. I'm sure the community is fine, but in my opinion it's on a downward trend now.
