People hack around the arbitrary limitations of software all the time!

It’s the year of Linux on the desktop fedi on every device!


Depends on the project, and I imagine a lot of the smaller ones are your standard FOSS BDFL leadership.
In my case I’ll likely make a rough milestone list based off our NLNet memorandum and go from there.


irelephant@programming.dev and what exactly does “non-archival” mean anyway? How long is content stored for?


In my case I had a spam protection measure that limited the amount of upvotes per user in one day. Someone on a Lemmy server uploaded past that threshold and NodeBB started sending back 500s.


silverpill@mitra.social simple! Respond to a Lemmy server with a 500, and once you hit 40 in one day the instance puts you on a timeout. Repeat as needed until your backlog is 4M activities 😅


Less than 3M activities behind now!




Better and better every day… Hoping we can get some additional funding to really accelerate development!


flamingos@feddit.uk it’s less that and more Lemmy’s ridiculously effective synchronization mechanic that Mastodon doesn’t utilise!


@scintilla@lemm.ee that’s the main thing for me too. That news orgs, political agencies, and corporations use Xitter to communicate is the real travesty.


@noodlejetski@lemm.ee oh sure, bit of a pot calling kettle black situation though.


@emperor@feddit.uk it is! The in-development stuff I’m working on makes it much easier to post directly to a Lemmy community.
This is probably the first, yes. It was also a bit of a live test at the same time.


@lost_my_mind@lemmy.world hate to break it to you, but Nokia sold their brand to HMD Global, and their new phones are … lacking in the indestructibility department. They are hefty though, I will say.
I owned two of them, and I got the ones that worked well. Some of the QC was wonky too.
just to correct something, NodeBB will not send a mention unless you are specifically mentioned. We do auto populate a mention in the text box though, so it’s probably happening because of that.
What we also do is send the message to everybody so everybody has a copy. (Everybody is addressed)
e.g. you should not have been mentioned here.
