Maybe this is what's implied or I'm just being silly; What is to stop a bad actor spinning up a Lemmy instance, creating a bunch of bot accounts with no restrictions, and spamming other instances? Would the only route of action be for the non spam instances to individually defederate the spam ones? Seems like that would be a bit of a cat and mouse situation. I'm not too familiar with the inner workings and tools that Lemmy has that would be useful in this situation

That bot is one of the few users I've had to block. I'm happy to sift through 'organic' posts that don't interest me, but when it's just reposting Reddit posts and losing the benefit of the discussion under that post, it kinda sucks

Apologies if I'm duplicating my previous comment, I replied in Jerboa but it doesn't seem to have posted;

I've used Sync since it was 'Reddit Sync' (since at least 2015 - wow), so would love to have a lemmy/kbin version of it too, with all my comforts. I paid for Sync Ultimate Lifetime a while back and would happily do the same for a Lemmy version to support development.

But the bugs are an essential part of any Bethesda game

It's runs really well, actually. I don't have any solid numbers because I wasn't really into that side of it, but I had a fairly large base going, about 20 hours past endgame (no where near a megabase, though) and no performance issues.

I'm still mostly playing TOTK. I completed the main story earlier this week, and normally that would kind of trigger a switch in my brain to lose all interest in side quests, but somehow it's managed to keep me interested.

The direct reminded me that I have barely started Mario + Rabbids Kindgom Battle, so been playing that a bit too.

Then to wind down I've been getting closer and closer to completing the all the normal Picross puzzles in Picross S2

Jerboa has some problems it needs to polish (although a lot of issues I have look like they've been resolved in PR's on the github page, ready for next release) but as an open source app for a previously tiny userbase, it does the job. Would switch over to Sync in a heartbeat though, if as you say, he's quick.

I think new communities are extremely heavy weighted in the trending section. I've not looked at the algorithm for it, but the 2 communities I made were on there immediately after creating them.

Ahh, I get you. I decided not to bring that rule over from there (at least for the time being) so people aren't deterred from posting, and the community can have it's own path, not necessarily dictated by it's reddit equivalent

Low latency (edit: I should probably elaborate given the community I'm in - when looking for wireless headsets specifically for use while gaming, it's an easy way to know that what I'm getting is going to be low latency, and likely come with a specific receiver for that)

I'm confused, is there an issue I'm not seeing? (I've only just realised I'd bungled my languages so only just seen the posts labelled English here)

Just came here to edit my comment (and mention I didn't realise this was an instance-specific issue) after seeing that, cheers!

If you Ctrl+ Click English and Unspecified, it will select both. I've personally just clicked on the languages box, pressed Ctrl + A to select them all, so I can see posts in all languages. I had an issue at first where I accidentally selected only Undetermined and some Cyrillic language, so when I posted from jerboa (which I guess automatically selects the language if you have more than Unspecified set), it was marked as that language.

Now this is a good one

That is horrifying

Perfect mirror image

I can hear our compliance officer having an aneurysm now

That's really weird, I upgraded to Windows 11 in the hope that was fixed with the 'better' window management, and I haven't had the same issue at all since upgrading. Probably explains why it's so hard to fix bugs in windows, if things get fixed for some but worse for others

I use Ecosia. Supposedly I've done enough searches for 241 trees to be planted, and I've yet to see anything that suggests they dont follow through with the promise to fund the planting of trees (although I've not actively looked). I think it's backed by bing so the results are a bit iffy sometimes, but I use the equivalent of ddg bangs to search Google if I need
