I use mostly the web app. Memmy, Mlem, Jerboa, Liftoff, etc. all look cool, but to be honest, I'm not sure I'll ever go back to having an app on my phone like I did with Reddit. I think I want my engagement with Lemmy to be more on a "when I feel like it" basis than a "when a push notification summons me" basis.
This person's upvoting beans, and you're all just going to do nothing about it? What a sick world we live in.
Yes - I believe you only need to make a comment in that community so that someone can appoint you.
Also trying hard to learn Rust here. Thanks much for posting this repo! :)
Yeah, I remember when it was first launched and it's come a long way already.
AFAIK, the quad column layout in Mastodon is based on Tweetdeck. I don't like it either, but some ex-Twitter users do, so that's neither here nor there.
Calckey certainly looks cool and feature rich, but every Calckey instance's main page alone slows my computer down a lot and overwhelms my eyeballs lol. Don't know what to do to make that better.
Though this community is not extra-dextra-large, there's still a lot of posts and comments about Reddit - so much so that before we started doing the megathreads, it was clogging up the local feed and preventing people from seeing other posts. Even in general, because !technology is such a big community on Beehaw, subscribing to it drowns out a lot of the other content we have.
Yeah, as of right now, the only thing users can do is individually block users or specific communities.
I'm glad that you're enjoying your experience on Beehaw though! Even on the admin end there's still not a lot of granular control, but hopefully, the explosion of users will help bring more attention to Lemmy's development.
Generally what this means is your registration application hasn't been reviewed yet - it just takes some time for a human to look at it and approve/deny.
That would be excellent! I'd love to flesh things out down the road and provide more advice, maybe turn what I've written here into something more substantial and with proper links to where I've learned some of this stuff or just additional reading, so if/when you put that doc together, I'd love to be involved in future contributions.
They have defined the rules - multiple times and at length. If you're dissatisfied with the lack of formal definition of 'hate speech' then that's fine, but even vaguely defined rules are still defined rules.
VS Code, but may switch to VSCodium or Neovim eventually.
