Content management bots would be great. A feature I desperately need right now is actually automatic cross-posting. I host my community on multiple instances and post actively to others. Linking posts together to have better reach and having multiple backups in case of one instance going down is incredibly important to Lemmy's continued growth and survival. Lemmy itself doesn't support a lot of redundancy features, so it'd be nice to automate the process a bit. A start would be a script that logs into an account and cross-posts a specified post to multiple communities in other instances. It'd also be nice to have it append the original instance at the end, so that people can follow for discussion.
Modern games have become too focused on providing a clean, balanced and no-real-obstacles experience. Sometimes I want to play a game that is a cohesive experience without being laser focused on some big idea about how I should play it. As an example, I've recently replayed arx fatalis. It's really fun how you can do everything in that game that you'd want an npc for in any other. It's also fun how each playstyle requires its own big chunk of knowledge about how the game works. Modern games try too hard to be minimalistic and fail to see the fun in a truly open experience. Even when you have options, they have all the fun pre-balanced and pre-optimized out of them. They give you too much info. No sense of discovery
lol, I might just put a small image of like 6 of them XD
Well that would just be quite unshenanigans of me if I went with a boring example, now would it? :)
Everything can be a poison depending on the quantity and method of interaction, at least that's what I heard. Maybe it's poison in your digestive system, but won't actually kill you if you apply it. Kinda like if you drink shampoo versus using it as intended.
Ah, yes, the OTT. I got it up there for ya!
As you might've noticed if you visited our community page after this post, I made a very cool looking banner (or so my mum tells me). Thing is, I don't use that many plugins on my own, and what better way to make the banner look interesting than to put your favorite plugins in there? This page will also serve as a cool overview of different plugins our community uses, so be sure to post all of your favorites! I'll pick the coolest-looking ones for the banner!
This post is gonna stay up until I decide that the banner is done (and perhaps we'll make it a seasonal thing to swap it out, who knows?) I'll update this banner in my spare time when you guys post some things to add.
To get on the banner, comment the name of a plugin and the company or a name of the person who made it. You can also post a link to its page or your own screenshot of the plugin, if you want.
I don't know what the limit is to how many plugins I can put in the image, but we should have a lot of space (and we're not limited to the amount of spots currently on the list). I suppose as long as every individual plugin is recognizable when shrinked, we're all good!
Right now the banner features:
(in order: columns from left to right)

I'll swap out the placeholders for your submissions and credit you! Like this:
Stuff by Cool People ^posted^ ^by^ ^u/supercoolperson^
And that's about it. Sh.itjust.works and waveform.social will have different banners (in the same style), so we can do something different with both of them! Post away!
You made a second post that is the same, mind if I take this one down? Your previous one seems to work just fine, and I suppose if you were to try something else you could try the upload image feature next time? Instance servers allow for uploads.
I see. Though, with the rate we're growing right now we might not stay small for very long, lol. I think keeping the quality bar where people don't just post random stuff with no discussion whatsoever is quite important, and as long as everyone respects each other it should still feel like a small cozy place.
I'm gonna hold off on the decision until I see a bit more input, but if the general sentiment is that staying open is better, I'm not gonna go against the flow there. I just wish Lemmy devs added some features to counterbalance the fragmentation of the fediverse
Wrote a long winded-reply and my internet cut off when I sent it so I'll keep it brief. I agree that we don't want to centralize. However, Lemmy isn't feature complete. I'd love us to have some more reach. I don't need control over where that reach goes or how big this community gets, I just want it to be big enough to be functional. And functional means having enough folks with knowledge to help out new guys and being able to able to post a thread looking for advice and be likely to get replies. That's all I want. And for that to be a reality, Lemmy needs to step up it's cross-posting game from reddit. I don't like the attitude of FOSS community with regards to things like Linux, that user experience issues is a user problem, not a software problem, "just use the console, bro", though that's been getting better over the years. I just have to disagree there, it's only valid up to a certain point that is reached far too quickly. I feel like we shouldn't make it harder on users than we absolutely have to.
That said, you're right, I don't own this c/ and I don't dictate the rules. I just hope that the rules we can agree on will help us build a community that people want to join. That's my goal.
Hah, I thought I noticed some autotune weirdness! I usually watch on 2x speed and sometimes I don't slow down for examples. Glad to know it wasnt just me!
