[meta] What do you guys think about a rule for reposts?

I know back in the old country (blueit er redhat or whatever it was) there was a rule for waiting a year or some time before reposts were allowed again. Should there be something like that here?

On an unrelated note, I got my friend the other day with a zinger. They were recovering from surgery and said they were moving up their diet and the nurse was getting them a liquid menu. I said, “LIQUID MENU? HOW ARE YOU GONNA HOLD IT?” …I think I could hear eyes rolled over the phone.

File limit size?

I mod a community that frequently posts HD images. I tried posting an image natively through the Memmy app and then through a mobile browser, both of which gave me a “File size too large.” I was able to post a hosting link just fine, but the resolution was smaller when downloaded again through the browser or Memmy app.

Is there a Lemmy, Lemmy.World, or Memmy file size limitation? I’d like to know what the cutoff is, so I can post that in the community’s description.

[feature request] Accent Color

I know customization comes after functionality on the priority list, but I would love a few color options in the Appearance settings to replace the blue. Purple, orange, and turquoise would be at the top of my list.

I prefer a dark background anyway, so the background would be less of a worry, but a graphite grey and beige would be nice eventually too.

Thanks to everyone that is working on this.

Should I require the community I mod to upload images to hosting services?

One community I mod is primarily for sharing images. I initially required uploading to services like Imgur or PostImages and post the link to Lemmy, to decrease hosting demand, but it’s much easier to simply upload it to Lemmy. Does it make sense to re-require uploading elsewhere? I don’t want to contribute to hosting overload, but I’d like an easy user experience.

@[email protected], if you can weigh in, I would appreciate it too.

Please make a reasonable effort to credit the artist or acknowledge that it was not found

I know everyone may be interacting with Lemmy in different ways, but the sidebar mentions the guidelines for the community. From the limited feedback I got, crediting the artists was valued, so I would like to continue that.

I know it is not as convenient to search, but the artist or source took the time to create or capture the image you are enjoying, so we can take 60 seconds to search for their name.

If you run it through Google Images or any other image search and cannot find an artist or source website, you can simply put “artist not found” or something to that extent.

Please let me know if these seems unreasonable or you have a different suggestion. Like many of you folks, I’m adapting the best I can to develop the community environment.

No longer need to upload from another hosting site

Don’t worry about uploading elsewhere; you can just upload the image with the Lemmy post and keep it simple.

It looks like some of the images were only available in the native resolution after clicking the hosting link (eg Post Image), which is an extra step for sharing. We can worry about hosting space later if that actually becomes an issue.

Let me know if you guys have other suggestions.
