Thanks for sharing, this made me smile. Also it warms my heart to hear how you are making tech accessible to this kid.

Many of us take it for granted but I remember how my dad used to go over to family friends in his free-time to help with computer stuff. I feel like I was too young to learn but it did set an example for me.

Sounds like !casualconversation@lemm.ee might be a nice community to post this question to as well :)

Isn’t that very country/culture/field specific?

Instance administration is also quite time consuming and is also based on volunteer work.

The vast majority of content on lemmy will be inaccessible to an instance who is under complete anarchy / unmodded.

There is the fediseer project that helps instances block such instances.

If you spin up an LLM farm instance it’s guaranteed to be blocked in many of the big ones - making your instance a lone island.

It’s your instance (lemmings.world) admin.

This… This is how fediverse works though… You are also on an instance run basically entirely on volunteer work.

If “we quit” there is no fediverse. On top of it all moderation tools are not mature enough yet.

You’d rather have your data scraped and sold? Or pay to use a platform like this?

Please don’t create a bot account that is not flagged as a bot. There is enough malicious activity that you might not see because mods/admins are doing their job.

There is no need to increase the volunteer work these people do.

I’ve also been looking at FP but I believe there are some issues of getting one outside of Europe.

I believe many instances defederate lemmynsfw.com simply because instance admins don’t want that legal responsibility and don’t have tools to keep an eye on it.

It’s been there for quite a long time though, just incase people here were not aware.

I actually like that idea! (As a non-dbzer0 user). But a separate community might be too much at this point considering no one has made a comment about it. How about posts in this community with a specific “tag”? [MEGATHREAD] or something?

Just my two cents added to your suggestion.

Not really no, I haven’t bumped into any issues using the community wiki megathread so far.

My question was prompted by me accidentally using a old bookmark that took me to rentry and noticed that it had seen updates very recently and compared to lemmy community wiki which seemed like it has not been updated since october. I started wondering whether the links were still all fine and there was no need to update them, or was it simply mostly abandoned and do people rather use rentry?

I personally prefer the lemmy community edition, but I’m such a noob when it comes to piracy that I put maybe too much trust into the megathread and this was just a wake up call to double check what am I clicking on and thought maybe asking the community about the state of the wiki wasn’t a bad idea.

Yeah with the “old megathread upkept by reddit’s piracy community” I mean that one and noticed that it is getting more edits than the community one here.

Wanted to basically know whether the lemmy community megathread is basically unmaintained and should I just use the rentry one. I really like the idea of lemmy community megathread, but I feel like if it is not maintained it might be more of a hazard. But I’m no expert and wanted a community discussion about this.

Edit: wanted to add that this is a pirate community afterall, would be of no shame to … pirate rentry megathread to lemmy community wiki every once in awhile, har har har

Bit late seeing your account is already 2mo old but nevertheless: welcome to the fediverse :)

No worries, glad you found it!

What’s your country? Maybe we can help

Holy shit, nice! Been meaning to get into blender, certainly looks better and more beginner friendly than any autodesk software I’ve used…

Someone’s account got banned by instance admins for mentioning they are 17. So you are right: no one is going to check!

Edit: it was on lemmy.world and nostupidquestions community IIRC

The irony. I believe this tweet gave Signal a huge international boost.

Yeah I assumed old info as well. And with electronjs allowing web apps to run as native apps I also have suspicions that the version between web and native is going to blur out with MS apps.

I am so hyped for Libre software. Inkscape is another amazing software that has come a long way recently.

Awwsome! No problem at all. Long live Lemmy indeed!!
