Techie scum living in Berkeley, CA and working for a small tech company. Likes to program in Rust, Python, and Ruby; knows altogether too much about MySQL and Cassandra.
Pronouns: he/him/his
Yeah I've tried that and it works for most communities, but not programming.dev. Alas!
Hm. I guess I'll have to go post there and try to figure out why it's broken, then!
programming.dev blocked?
I noticed that I’m no longer subscribed to any communities from programming.dev, and none of them show up in search. Did we defederate from them? Was it intentional or is something just busted?
It's maddening that sometimes this works and sometimes you just need to wait a few hours and try again. It feels like some kind of federation background thread is stuck or some queue is full.
Why the hell is Meta doing user-agent parsing in the year 2023? It's not like they need to enable IE quirks mode!
The opposite of "x"
I feel like I often overselect when repeating the x command, but the only way I know of to fix it is vk<esc> which is not the most fun to type. Does anyone have a good binding or option for undoing an over-selection? I'm aware of #3776 but curious what workarounds people do now.
Trouble finding communities
There are a lot of communities I'm interested in that I know exist; if I visit them on their home-servers, they're loading and whatnot; however, I can't see them at all from partizle (and just get a 404 if I go to /c/name@server.ml).
For example, https://kbin.social/m/rust should be reachable at https://partizle.com/c/rust@kbin.social, but the latter link is just a 404. Is there some background process for federation that's broken? Are we intentionally defederated from kbin.social and lemmy.ml?
Hello!
Trying out Lemmy as a Reddit/Digg/Slashdot alternative. New to Lemmy, but not the Fediverse (I can be found on mastodon at @roguelazer@hachyderm.io)
Professionally, I write Ruby, Rust, and Python and have done so for a bunch of well-known (and less-well-known) tech companies. I live in California.
Hoping that this instance stays stable and that this particular branch of the Fediverse finds success!
