  • at least there are some of them here, i havent seen them yet whatsoever

    (I even feel like its way more progressive but also more "radical/chaotics" here and there since the communities are still more niche and therefore weighting feels off)

    would love to read some "frustration" every now and then to see how my facebook grandparents would argue for example, lol

  • the cognitive dissonance you just caused, you cant just bring that up fully neutral like that

    Anyone know how to get the embeds on lemmy working? (to avoid youtube data grab)

    I am too new to privacy and only got FreeTube(PC) and NewPipe(phone) to run with alot of failures on better applications. Thats another problem Id need help with but primarily this post is about the feature included on this platform in the setting (screenshot).

    Any idea how to get this to run that way?

  • yeah we need eu to help us get fediverse goin with european servers and more ethical algorithms for such platforms that rely on it

    or how else are you navigating pixelfed to find the good stuff.. its really frustrating to stare at low quality posts and be somewhat stuck with those.. maybe theres other reasons in UX also contributing to this frustration

  • too little too late, all sillicon valley oligarchs/whole paypal-mafia has monopolies on their ends.

    • gimp? adobe is uncontested feature quality wise
    • firefox? on a leash slowly but surly giving in to selling your data

    I know this might be limited to software used by officials, but we need to somewhat prioritize funding the european search index, european fediverse platforms (existing and new ones to fill the gaps with ethical algorithm systems for enabling livelyhood on platforms like pixelfed) and official EU alternatives to whatsapp and other standards that mainstream uses

  • Oh thanks, so does the proposal never get into the EUs hands? This would make me question how effective this will be

  • I just lost my whole comment clicking a username link instead of the phone keyboard.... I'm low energy and was so happy having typed all. Will retype later maybe..

    Short version (without describing) .. :(

    • The Orville
    • toggo die Drachenjäger
    • huntik
  • Just a couple hours before this post I've made a post about this issue!!

    Nice to see a solution effort push by the last bastion of my sanity in this egomaniac world: the EU

  • Exactly a digital revolution is so needed for the sanity of humanity honestly. But speaking about that, there's symptoms already that we somehow need to solve already... So yeah, not going to happen and tech giants continue to feast :(

  • Thanks exactly what I was looking for. I wish they'd give more updates 😅

  • anarchy for me but not for thee

    ignorant jokes aside, i think i might be interested in your consumer opinion. maybe ill find the referred read

  • like a global map with filters by business sector, flight reason, etc

    man this would be sick hehe

  • didnt even think about that.. but how do university libraries for example then keep up their valuable - or even more interesting - their non valuable old inventory? Never thought that degration was THAT potent

  • Yeah, abuse of unlawed digital spaces in commerce seems to be an issue above my desire.

    but lets not act like publishers will choose the highest possible price anyway.

    cough 90$ for a ps1 era game cough

  • Lemmy remove that

    Youre right - its like people misusing pov and then show a view onto themself

  • Gut so!!1! Diese sozialen Schmarotzer die nie wirklich arbeiten (da oben)

  • thats what I was wondering too :D

    I just hate that theres no Elden ring PC disc for example

  • Games @lemmy.world
    arakhis_ @feddit.org

    I want a law for PC games to be offered in physical versions again

    Like can we make this a more vocal opinion that Triple-A studios/publishers are like legally required to offer a version.. Or what is your take on that, especially if you have a similar opinion with a deviation in execution. let me know why if you dont agree too!

    I'd love to have and collect DRM free titles that last even after a platform is gone, also ubi cant pull off clown shows like the crew or whatever racing game they just erased out of power tripping spite

  • anyone know what their plans are exactly in terms of switching away from bing?

    also altough I smile everytime im not using google or bing directly anymore while getting these amazing results with that nice qwant UI:

    it's image search is my biggest complaint usecase wise. the results are small, non-scalable and theres no similar search upon focusing one result

  • Streisand effect, am now super interested in emulating switch products.

    We just need a huge fund to uphold a defense against unjust bully lawsuit threats by N-word company - countless small ones through a petition and/or some big reach influencers/oil-oligarchs that are gamers

    Emulators are perfectly legal, after all

    How do you search for posts but only within one community?

    I have now encountered this problem a couple times, that I wanted to look into what this and that c/community has to offer for thinkgs in my question, but there seems to be no way to search a c/community, or is there a way?

    I just realized there's no video based posts. I love it

    Back in the day, introducing video posts destroyed facebook, a friends chatter platform, slowly but surely. Same fate with instagram, a photography/memory platform, getting into reels and videos.

    Now if I go to reddit once a month to check in what the vibe is since my "detox" I realized.

    Its all designed to drain. Drain your energy, your free thought, your long term happiness. Like not even hyperbolic, this is really scary.

    And we all know thanks to the c/reddit community here on lemmy: Its full of this hidden but omniprersent corpo shilling, ads and corpo censoring.

    Wöchentlicher Einkauf: Lebensmittel online? Eure Erfahrungen

    Die Verpackungen sind absichtlich immer viel kleiner als das alte Pendant, gleichzeitig ist die Auswahl maximal reduziert oder einfach unverschämt teuer. Vegan Einkaufen in Supermärkten, wenn man nicht gerade in der Metropole lebt, belastet mich manchmal schon.

    Da kam mir jetzt der Gedanke mal vielleicht online ne größere vegane Mayo zu finden, die nicht 80ml groß ist. Und entsprechend mehr Auswahl bei allen anderen Produkten zu finden.

    --

    • Habt ihr schonmal online geshoppt? Ist das etwas, dass man regelmäßig machen könnte?

    Ich habe ein einziges mal etwas bestellt, dass gekühlt war und irgendwie sind die Produkte immer nur 3 Tage haltbar oder so.

    --

    Außerdem fahre ich eigentlich gerne mitm Fahrrad einkaufen, sprich klimatechnisch wäre das ja wieder etwas unoptimierter - auch wenn Lieferverkehr so oder so nötig ist:

    • Vielleicht kennt ihr Optionen, die zB nicht vors Haus liefern, sondern bei Sammelstellen abholbar wären?

    How to download videos with a "blob:http..." src on firefox? (2025)

    What permissions do instances have over the communities on it?

    If there would "hypothetically" be an instance owner(like what even is that, just a guy or group having servers somewhere?) that censores in bad faith, could it do that to the communities on there too? Could they just take out certain communities or delete content on it, affect the responsive moderators, etc?

    Like how do I know I'm not on a community dependent on u/spez filtering out everything about insurance for his corpo bros?

    I hope my questins make sense

    Privacy @lemmy.ml
    arakhis_ @feddit.org

    Do alternative frontends for twitch exist (like pstube/freetube/piped for YT)?

    Do you recommend some or know how to find out? To be more privacy-friendly ofc

    EDIT: -possibly working with addons like ublock (vern cc has ad breaks) and emote support (so chat isnt a cryptic jungle)

    -Primarily on desktop, but additional app welcome

    -Possibly not even communicating with Amazon (like for YT for example only psTube does to my understanding)

    QUESTION: Could it possibly work to still participate in the chats (like i imagine a throwaway account for example) or does that break the whole concept of privacy? How does that work exactly.

    Polizeiliche Kriminalstatistik: Mehr Gewalttaten und weniger Drogendelikte {& Gesamtrückgang in Kriminalstatistik}

    cross-posted from: https://feddit.org/post/10207457

    {Text} im Titel: Ich habe das hinzuzgefügt, da ich persönlich(!) Beeinflussung von Schlagzeilen in der heutigen Zeit kritisch sehe, aufgrund der reißerischen Natur bei undifferenzierter Betrachtung. Wie seht ihr das?

    TLDR - Zusammenfassung des Artikels:

    Die Polizeiliche Kriminalstatistik für das Jahr 2024 zeigt eine gemischte Entwicklung der Kriminalitätslage in Deutschland:

    • Gesamtkriminalität: Die Zahl der registrierten Straftaten ist insgesamt um 1,7 Prozent auf rund 5,83 Millionen Fälle zurückgegangen. Dieser Rückgang ist hauptsächlich auf die Teillegalisierung von Cannabis zurückzuführen, die im April 2024 in Kraft trat.
    • Gewaltkriminalität: Trotz des allgemeinen Rückgangs der Straftaten hat die Gewaltkriminalität einen neuen Höchststand seit 2007 erreicht. Insgesamt wurden 217.277 Gewalttaten registriert, ein Anstieg um 1,5 Prozent. Besonders stark angestiegen sind Sexualdelikte, die um 9,3 Pro

    How to change the flavicon & logo (top left) to another fediverse platform?

    cross-posted from: https://feddit.org/post/9405509

    Untalended guy in programming here.

    • Is there a way to change the flavicon(icon in the tab preview as I understand) to another fediverse platform?

    I currently have "mouse in flag colors" as an icon based on feddit org. But I would prefer for example the feddit IT logo - orange mouse, clean design)

    Is that possible to change with like tampermonkey addon or something somehow in a rather easy way? I have an addon called "TwitterBird" for Mozilla replacing all X logos with the old blue twitter logo

    • Or is there even a better way to accomplish this without creating an additional account to swap to all the time?
    Typography & fonts @lemmy.ca
    arakhis_ @feddit.org

    You should know there's a font designed to make reading easier, especially for people with low vision. It's called Atkinson Hyperlegible Next. It's free for personal and commercial use.

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/27410537

    Note that there still have been no studies on its efficacy. At worst, it is a great font to avoid ambiguity between characters.

    Thoughts on new Lemmy features to boost intent for posting more?

    cross-posted from: https://feddit.org/post/9451996

    Thoughts on features to boost intent for posting more?

    Like a karma system of that other forum website.

    I currently miss a point system to motivate me that shows people via my profile how much I could help by posting/commenting. There's no system to create such feedback currently on Lemmy.

    Are there statements by the creators of this platform about that?

    Vegan Recipes @sh.itjust.works

    Chickpea-based vegan tuna!

    Full recipe: https://lovingitvegan.com/vegan-tuna/

    Its so simple once you figured out which spice ingredients to pull out the cupboard.

    • Smash the chickpeas,
    • Put mayo in
    • Spices.
    • DONE!

    And it tastes soooooo great! As somebody who doesnt like intense fishy tastes but still loving tuna from the days before going full plant, I find leaving out the nori doesnt change the tuna-like taste at all!

    Tell me what you think/have already tried similar!
