A helpful tip to get myself writing notes instead of lashing out at friends was to send DMs in a chat I was only in. So it felt like I sent it, but without the destroying my friendships part. For each message I'd also write notes down elsewhere and when I was done I'd copy-paste it to to wherever I wanted to send it. Once I got used to it, I would just write notes on my phone and then screenshot it and not send it anywhere. I still feel vindicated at the time, but now I don't have to deal with the aftermath. It's also good at documenting what I am thinking and what lead to it.

Hopefully someone else finds this useful :)

I hope we can have camaraderie between them. This issue is very polarising here, so I'm really interested to see what the vote is gonna be.

I think I understand what you're saying, correct me if I'm wrong. I struggled reading it and it looks like others did as well.

You want us to engage in a discussion about if we want this English only OR encourage adding more languages (I don't know how we can attract more languages, but we can certainly try and encourage it?). You say that we could make it prominent that this instance is hosted in Sweden (it isn't too my knowledge) and make Swedish the lingua franca of this instance, but you see the issues with that.

I do think there should at least be some clarification of what languages should be encouraged from a moderation standpoint, but most(?) people here seem to think you want to block other languages that aren't English when in fact you just postulated the idea as well as encouraging adding more. Maybe it should mention somewhere that we're primarily English speaking despite having Swedish in the domain name.

From my understanding, this instance is not hosted in Sweden. It just uses the Blåhaj "theme" as it's a common icon among queer people. I haven't checked where it's hosted, but I just assume it's Australian run.

Voiding my warranty is always the first thing I do to a phone, it's quite cathartic. Now if the Samsung boot loader would stop bitching at me about it every time I boot the damn thing that would be great lol

Saaame, but I'm starting to question if my controller is actually even plugged in

Putting this down as it may be relevant. It was posted very recently:

It would be a shame to defederate them. While they can be abrasive and a bit trolly at times, I think they add very diverse opinions and insights compared to the rest of the community. The most thought provoking comments I've read during my time here have come from hexbear users, even if I think it's a nonsensical take it's at least unique to me.

The brigading in the other post probably pissed a bunch of people off, but I couldn't help but find humour in that whole situation. It didn't seem too bad, just mildly annoying. It doesn't feel like it's a widespread enough issue to warrant defederating, but only time will tell I guess.

Hallowed are the Stargate posts here, keep them going

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

Done! I've added some more issues as well

I made an AUR PKGBUILD for it so it's easier to install on Arch

Yay!

Edit: Just tested it with some wizard posting, it's all workings thanks :)

 
 

I am looking for alternative knowledge sources to mozillazine that's a bit more up to date.

Specifically, I am after something that explains advanced about:config options and what each sqlite file and storage directories in my profile are actually used for. When I search online for things I get unhelpful support articles from mozilla and random reddit threads with conflicting information.

I've played around with a lot of things through a lot of trial and error (I can share some about:config values if anyone's interested in them), but I'd like to be directed somewhere I can go to and check to make sure I won't break my profile.

I already use ffprofile to set up my user.js, but I'm looking for something with more documentation without having to resort to reading the source code of firefox.

It's a gift until it's a subscription service I can't cancel lol

 

My friend is having issues viewing/subscribing to this community from another instance. Is it set up that way on purpose or is the community too small to be indexed?

I tried viewing here from a couple of other of instances and I just get:

404: couldnt_find_community

Wondering if this is a known issue or localised to us two. I also couldn't find any other vegan communities, so am unsure where to go from here.
