hidden just means it won't show up in the All feed, but you can still subscribe to see all the posts from them

so this is much softer than defederation, and it's per community instead of an entire instance

Make a Github pull request, examples:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site/pull/347

https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site/pull/354

the instance needs at least 5 active users

He called Git simple lol. Some good points here though. GIMP is definitely a bit clunky. Kdenlive does crash a lot for me, and often fails to recover the autosave, and it renders slowly. But there's a lot of other good open source programs too. Firefox, OBS, Blender, some people in the comments were saying Krita but I haven't tried it yet. There's also Chromium and VSCode but obviously those are backed by huge companies.

very interesting, I wonder if the difference is due to the Pixel 8 Pro having a variable refresh rate screen, maybe also because it has a higher resolution screen and different graphic drivers

but with Chrome being about 10x more efficient on P8P than P4a, I'm guessing the variable refresh rate is a big factor there that Firefox isn't using as optimally

Also the moderation tools could've been Java and connect to the Lemmy database/API (maybe with some pull requests to add to Lemmy's API), which to me sounds a lot better than saying fuck it and rewriting everything, it could've lived in its own repo anyways

I think this is a pretty big problem with how people are using Lemmy in general

https://lemmyverse.net/communities shows 27,726 communities

https://join-lemmy.org/instances says Lemmy has 42.2k monthly active users (as of v0.19.0 that's including people who only vote and don't post/comment)

I just think that's way too many communities to be sustainable, people jumped on Lemmy and tried to create a community to match every subreddit, and then they did it on multiple different instances too.

I'm not sure how to improve this. You could delete communities but then you lose post history and subscribers. You could close communities and make a pinned post, but then they clutter search results and they definitely look dead, because they are. There could maybe be a new Lemmy feature added to merge a community into another one (moving the posts over and then deleting the old community) but that would have complications with subscribers on other instances.

There's a few moments in Telltale's The Walking Dead series, but especially season 1

The default browser on most Android smartphones will raise its minimum OS requirement to Android 8.0 with the Chrome 120 release in early 2024.

The minimum version for Google Calendar for Android is also now Android 8.0
