Knitting my own garments (sweaters, scarfs, etc) has made me appreciate how long it really takes to make actually good clothing that’s meant to last. Thankfully more and more people are getting on board with the idea of “slow fashion”, with a significant amount of younger people especially during the pandemic picking up knitting and crochet as well as seeing more of the value it possesses than before.

It hurts itself in confusion

Elestisearch is an interesting choice to stick with. Mastodon is already a resource hog as it is.

Remember to block metas ip ranges and not just defederate. Make data scraping as hard as possible for these weirdos

Chill with the FUD. As a web host there have been far more cases of random web hosts doors being busted down by the feds for hosting copyrighted material than CSAM they had no reasonable knowledge of.

Yes. They can stress test it if it is not under tight lock and key. It is why these databases are so heavily guarded and every new user for it are heavily vetted.

Yes. But only if you are in the US and get an API key from NCMEC. They are very protective of who gets the keys and require a zoom call as well. There is hope cloudflare will integrate with other countries database as well but we will see. There is also active discussion of deals to provide hash scanning software to fediverse instances more easily as well.

Absolutely but this is a good basis to work from.

Mmmmm that’s unlikely. We would see lots of social media websites go down if that was the case.

It likely is, horribly optimized mess of a software right now

Right now all images are cached by default, even external ones. A copy is downloaded into pictrs. A fix is being worked on to disable that very very soon soon. It was being worked on before this due to storage cost issues ballooning long term but yeah.

And that is completely understandable. Everyone has their own risk tolerance like @expatriado@lemmy.world said. The removal of caching remote images is coming soon, like most likely days away from release into lemmy. And although it is not the only tool we need it is a step in the right direction.

Hell yeah!

I think building such a system of some kind that can allow smaller instances to rely from help from larger instances would be extremely awesome.

Like, lemmy has the potential to lead the fediverse is safety tools if we put the work in.

It is coming, don’t worry.

I am very hopeful it fails and gets enough push back.

They really made the zip domain then dipped out

It came after I was arguing with weirdo antisemites in c/atheistmemes so I assume it was because of that but I have no idea and don’t really care to know that much

I wish they were visible to others or had an admin option to add it the modlog cause people write some funny shit in there 😭

If not supporting means you feel that we don’t deserve civil rights then yeah they should be banned

Those that even remotely consider scraping data on Mastodon consistently face intense harassment and criticism.

If that is true in any way whatsoever, that is a completely moronic long term goal. Lemmy devs themselves have encouraged instances who do such a thing to defederate. I don’t see how realistically advertising or monetization would be done not only without immense privacy concerns that would likely affect the rest of the fediverse but without major protests and mass defederation. The backlash against it would be immense, not just on lemmy but across the fediverse itself.

I mean if dude wanted to troll he succeeded really well ngl

When I realized it was that dude who tried signing up to my instance I lost my shit laughing, if he was screened prior it’s obvious he wouldn’t have gotten in. This is precisely what happens when you focus on growth over organically cultivating a healthy community.

yall, this dude tried signing up to my instance a few nights ago. yall wanna see why many communities have registration approvals? see below. warning for nsfw language

He is LMAOOOOOOOOOOO

Oh no, I love electron. That’s not a dig on it, it’s just very much a resource hog.

It also only takes a single gigabyte of RAM per file being edited, Isn’t that fantastic?

I live in a town house with relatively good Wifi signal coverage with no extenders needed. I am planning on eventually paying a professional to get wall Ethernet ports installed so I can hook up my most network dependent devices (gaming desktop, gaming devices) and use the router with the rest that wouldn’t make sense to hook into Ethernet.

Good bot

I’m using a custom docker image for lemmy made by a friend of mine that uses traefik instead of nginx/caddy and it automatically manages certs, but I do know that caddy is quite simple in a similar way as well.

I feel like some of the major scaling issues that lemmy has right now might be aided with IPFS in some capacity

My synagogue uses zoom and I’m afraid of the potential risk this might place them with now

What in the ever loving hell is up with France’s current government right now? It’s like Macron has said fuck it, lets give the fascists a way to sneak in

How lovely, our tax dollars at work 🙄

A big issue with Lemmy right now is how picture storage works. All photos are cached as they enter the instance and there isn’t much to do to turn it off. It’s ridiculous, especially for server scaling. The database in of itself is small, it’s really the pictures that are an issue and grow rapidly.

lemmy mainly
