  • No, it is only you who are annoyed at this.

    /s 😁

  • But doesn't doing that in Voyager simply apply the base Lemmy instance block? If so then it merely mutes communities from it, but doesn't block users from the instance from posting, commenting, responding, sending DMs, etc.

    It's not nothing, but it falls far short of expectations, especially for something called by that name.

  • The two extremes seem more similar to each other than most people seem to want to admit - to me anyway. But I respect anyone's opinion to not see it that way.

    More to the point, having changed my own beliefs multiple times throughout life, I suppose I just see others who are still on some "other side" as being more like me, or at least past me. We are all just wrong in different ways.

    Yes, I get that people are going to die. Even so.

  • I believe you are mistaken, as that one is actually Transformation, since it fundamentally and irreversibly alters the properties of the recipient substance!:-)

    Edit:

  • PieFed has some interesting thoughts along these lines.

    I actively expect to never see such a thing in Lemmy though.

  • Thank you - Reddit is one of the major sources of easily findable images on the internet (like gliffy and imgur etc.), so it would be good to have those links work.

    And regardless the Preview feature showing differently than ends up being rendered is definitely the biggest issue IMHO. It's hard to balance all of the various factors though, I do get that!:-P

  • Bold to presume that we would want to survive it.

    Fwiw Musk says that he wants to leave Earth and go to Mars, which is great news for the rest of us:-).

  • (written in fortune cookie style): You who find the hidden meaning behind all things, keep digging to discover your treasure!

  • Something that I discovered last week is that the "preview" feature may show the image but then later when the proxy gets added then the image no longer renders.

    Testing with the same one from then (it renders correctly with Preview):

    Edit: yup, and sure enough it still breaks after the proxy is added. I hope this report helps!:-)

  • Woot!

    It's only ~5 minutes long, and very worth a watch imho.

    @4:31: "liberal democracy has been marked by its emphasis on procedures, not outcomes - we honor the process, even when we dislike the outcome; the drive to quickly get what we want even at the cost of bypassing procedures and undermining institutions is deeply dangerous"

    Got a burning question you want to ask someone from the US like "Why is the imperial system superior" or "Why is Texas"? Join us over at !AskUSA@discuss.online (!AskUSA@discuss.online for the mbin users) and find out the definitive answer. You can also just chat if you don't have questions, because this is the land of the free and there are no laws 🇺🇸🦅 (there are actually, please be nice)

    Does anyone want to take over the new AskUSA@discuss.online community to allow for more serious discussions?

    This is in regards to the brand-new !AskUSA@discuss.online community.

    And by more serious discussions I mean e.g. the legality of the recent jury nullification issue, which I don't want to allow if I were a moderator in it.

    If you say yes you will be granted the community "ownership" as the sole moderator. I've only been a mod myself on Lemmy for less than a day but we'll figure out how to transfer it to you. You can ofc always add new mods and change it however you like after that. The advantage here is chiefly that you get the community "name" AskUSA, whereupon I could later create e.g. a CasualUSA but you would have the privileges of that specific name, to match the style of e.g. AskUK or AskLemmy (or AskScience or AskMen or AskElectronics or AskAndroid etc. - there are so many here using that style:-).

    I don't want to be involved in something that is going to constantly be depressing to me, though I do recognize the need for such and am offering the community "name" if someone e

    And since this meme comes from Reddit, I made 100% certain (adjustment for inside the USA: 120%) to not research it in the slightest, just putting out here all confidently-like without a care in the world for anything other than how it makes us feel.

    I am not sure where to post this - most of us on this instance probably use it as a "general-purpose" one to launch ourselves into the wider Fediverse, with only a few communities being here locally. @jgrim@discuss.online @lazyguru@discuss.online

    I would like for Discuss.Online to defederate from the troll instance hexbear.net, to protect new users (who don't understand how communities work, local and remote) from being exposed to their toxicity and therefore drive people away from the Fediverse. I personally made the mistake of responding to a comment in a post in !ChapoTrapHouse@hexbear.net and continued to receive messages from them - each one triggering my Notifications - for WEEKS afterwards (and then did the same for lemmygrad.ml as well, though iirc at least one and probably both of these occurrences likely was from my prior instance StarTrek.Website, which I moved from to here b/c of Discuss.Online's much
