I currently have an iPhone 14 Pro Max and I want to switch to an Android phone.

First of all, I eliminated all Chinese phones. Since Samsung has limited custom rom support, I gave up on that too. At the end, I decided to get a Pixel because of its GrapheneOS support.

But right now I'm stuck between Pixel 8 and 9. There's a big price difference with small improvements. I can afford both but not sure if Pixel 9 is worth it. What do you think?

Why a user should use your instance where there are other free alternatives though?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (5 children)

Who will keep the money? Who will calculate what users will have to pay? Who will verify that the money is being used for the purpose it was paid for? How will bringing crypto payments to fediverse increase users, considering that 99% of people have never used crypto before? What will happen to the data of users who decide not to pay anymore? Let's assume that all instances offer paid membership; wouldn't monopoly occur if a corporate/suspicious instance offers completely free membership? Wouldn't offering paid memberships hold instance admins legally liable?

Who will leave the mainstream platforms that are completely free and have many more users, and then pay and use a platform that is 1 in 100,000 times the size?

Even though I received a donation of about $10 for 1 year, I think the current system should continue. If money is involved in something, it would be abused.

Money involvement = enshitification

Let fediverse be unprofitable.

@[email protected] I have cleaned these and some other bot accounts from my instance. I was ok to open registrations to this point because we were able to get reports for almost every activity and we could easily manage them. But unfortunately Lemmy does not have a regulatory mechanism for votes, so I'll keep it manual approval until then.

Also it looks like they're manually creating accounts since we had captcha + email approval in our instance from the beginning. So this means that even with manual approvals, a botnet can be created – just in a delayed manner.

Alright. I’ll check this ASAP.

in 2016, an attempt to overthrow Erdogan and his religious-conservative administration was foiled

It was not a secularist coup. It occurred because of Erdogan's disagreements with his former Islamist partner, Fethullah Gülen.

You're right, that's worse.

Does the receiver instance federate that like object to other instances? If not, it is shit for sure.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 weeks ago

About $50 monthly for server, backups, image hosting, mails etc.

I’m using Headscale for work and Tailscale for personal use. I tried to use Nebula but it’s not easy as Tailscale.

Thx. Looks like there's also ComfyUI. How about that?

 

I tried SD once and it was pretty good. It was a bit difficult, of course. Now I want to try image generation again. Do you still think I should use SD or a different tool?

 

I prefer simplicity and using the first example but I'd be happy to hear other options. Here's a few examples:

HTTP/1.1 403 POST /endpoint
{ "message": "Unauthorized access" }
HTTP/1.1 403 POST /endpoint
Unauthorized access (no json)
HTTP/1.1 403 POST /endpoint
{ "error": "Unauthorized access" }
HTTP/1.1 403 POST /endpoint
{
  "code": "UNAUTHORIZED",
  "message": "Unauthorized access",
}
HTTP/1.1 200 (🤡) POST /endpoint
{
  "error": true,
  "message": "Unauthorized access",
}
HTTP/1.1 403 POST /endpoint
{
  "status": 403,
  "code": "UNAUTHORIZED",
  "message": "Unauthorized access",
}

Or your own example.

Hi. I’d like to inform P.D admins that Lemmy Federate integration is not working for P.D because Fediseer preferences.

P.D is using “don’t follow censured instances” option in Lemmy Federate while blocking 3rd parties on Fediseer. So Lemmy Federate can’t fetch P.D’s censure list.

So please either:

  • Disable Fediseer usage in Lemmy Federate
  • Grant access of censure list to 3rd parties in Fediseer

I have a 32:9 screen and I want to play CS2 in middle, 16:9 way. I couldn't do it natively and tried Gamescope.

While Gamescope works as I would like, the mouse is doesn't work properly. As you can see from the video, game is centered but mouse is aligned to right of the screen. The params I'm using are;

gamemoderun gamescope -f -w 2560 -h 1440 -r 240 --force-grab-cursor -S integer -- %command% -fullscreen

Any recommendations?

 

I've heard many of them. For example: rolldown, rspack, swc, oxc, esbuild, parcel, vite etc.

I can currently use JS projects without these tools. What extra do they add? Why should I use them instead of simply using tsc?

Though I must admit I like vite simplicity in front-end.

We have been under troll attack for a while now. For this reason, I am giving up on the open registration policy for a while.

I will also add a rule for extremist users. Even though I care about freedom, I don't like moderation duties very much :) These users must find a new instance that matches their identity.

We’re also looking for an admin who can volunteer to moderate. They should be someone who has spent a few months in our instance, has a clean moderation history, and is active. In short, they must be someone we can trust. @[email protected] and I are busy these days :)

I currently use Cloudflare's DNS with disabled proxy and I want to ditch Cloudflare completely now (for known reasons).

I found the desec.io service and it’s looking pretty good to me. What are your thoughts about this site? Would you recommend it? Any other recommendations?

Not exactly self hosting but maintaining/backing it up is hard for me. So many “what if”s are coming to my mind. Like what if DB gets corrupted? What if the device breaks? If on cloud provider, what if they decide to remove the server?

I need a local server and a remote one that are synced to confidentially self-host things and setting this up is a hassle I don’t want to take.

So my question is how safe is your setup? Are you still enthusiastic with it?

I will upgrade the Lemmy version to 0.19.4 on Sunday 10:00 UTC. Therefore, we’ll experience about 1 hour downtime.

Normally, I do not announce these version upgrades, but since the database will also be upgraded and migrated, down time may increase in case of a problem.
