Very useful and pleasant to use. You almost don't have to move your fingers out of the keyboard with this extension.

I am looking for a nice theme for Hugo. This is some examples of other things themes I like and why I cannot use them:

• https://www.getrichordevtryin.com/ : It's a Jekyll theme
• https://htdvisser.github.io/hugo-base16-theme/ : When I run the server, the post list is not displayed.

Can you help me?

Hello Lemmy!

I recently discovered the "Request my data" function of Discord. Now that I have the data Discord knows about me.

I would like to make an experiment that could be used to explain how metadata can say a lot about people.

The problem is, I never done that :grinning face with sweat: so I would like to know how I could get everything I can, only from the metadata contained in the package.

I know it's possible, according to the length of calls, the umber of messages, etc, to guess what kind of relation a user have with another, but I don't know how to do that.

This is a description of the data package: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/360004957991

Can you help me to know what are the information I can determine about myself using this package (only the metadata, or it's not fair :p)

Thanks in advance!

I LOVE Wikipedia, I think it's one of the best websites of the internet.

But the fact is that Wikipedia has many flaws:

• Editing became very hard on Wikipedia based on the amount of rules to respect
• Wikipedia is biased, many cultures and minorities are not well represented among editors and pages.
• Wikipedia is a dependence, I can't imagine Wikipedia disappear, I think it already changed the way people see knowledge, not as something fixed anymore, but as something dynamic that changes and evolve.
• Wikipedia 'sources admission' are also very... Weird. Because you can be a professional in a special field, it doesn't mean your contribution will be accepted, just because your source is not coming from a 'reliable source', even if YOU are this reliable source.

There are other problems as well, but I think those are the most important ones.

What do you think about it? If you could change anything or everything to Wikipedia, what would you do?

I am an anarchist. But I am not an asshole, I would like to understand why some communists are so hostile against anarchist and why some anarchist are so hostile toward communism.

I don't understand that. There are a lot of common ways of doing things between anarchists and communism and we both have the goal.

It can seem like a very stupid post, but I am really trying to understand :)

This is the things I use on my computer. :)

Conditions for a good software accoridng to me

• Least number of visual stimulations. No notifications, no sounds, no tons of button everywhere... Best if it can be only used using keyboard.
• Light, my computer also wants to benefit from minimalism.
• Respects its users. It needs to be "free software" (free as freedom)
• Being necessary for you.

The basic stuff

• Xubuntu is my operating system.
• dwm (plus dmenu) is my window manager. Everything is done using a few shortcuts and takes no space on the screen. The shortcuts are easy to get, but the installation might be tricky for new linux users.
• st is my terminal. I use it for coding, writing and managing my system. The only thing I changed to it was to change the fontsize and enable the scrollback patch. But again it might be tricky to install for new linux users.

Browsing online

I already tried other stuff like "surf" but I don't like it because I want to use an adblocker.

• Firefox is my favorite browser. I use it because it's lighter than other browsers, and I can install uBlock Origin.

Writing

I need to write things for school and for myself. So I mainly use Marktext or nano to write my stuff.

• Marktext is a markdown editor. I like markdown because I don't want to pass the majority of my time on choosing fonts and stuff like that. Also I think it's more handy and reliable. I only use this app for exporting into pdf. I write using nano
• Nano is a terminal-based editor. Very easy to use, only terminal based. I use for both writing markdown and writing code.
• Libreoffice if I really need to have a "classic" office suite.

Communication

Chatting

• dino (xmpp client), it is my favorite chatting software. I like it more than Discord because, instead of joining a ton of useless channels, you only join the ones you want. (Also it's lighter than Matrix.)
• HexChat is my favorite IRC client. Yes I still use IRC, it's so simple and stupid, I love it!

Emails

• Thunderbird, it has a very "brut" interface, but very handy and powerful. You can setup filters to automatically clean your inbox. I never get up to 20 messages in my inbox this way.

Coding

I use nano as my code editor. That's it, same thing as said above.

• nano and st is my IDE :)
• openscad is the cad software I use. Basically, design things in 3D using code.

Video

• Shotcut is a nice video editor. Pretty straight forward. When I need something more advanced, I use kdenlive.
• VLC is a nice video viewer.

Photo

• Firefox is my image viewer.
• GIMP is my image editor. I don't want to use photoshop.

Sound

• Audacity is useful when I need to record sound
• pavucontrol is the tool I use to manage the input/output audio stuff.
• Musecore is a score editor I use to digitalize and read piano scores.

Hi! I am a beginner programmer, but I would like to understand the general process to go from a non-activitypub to an activity software (ie. Lemmy)
