No, we don’t store the sizes of uploads.

You’ll need to open an issue there. Jerboa needs more contributors tho, because I’ve been too busy with other things.

You’ll need to open an issue on the lemmy-ui repo. Its most likely cached images, not cookies, as we don’t store that many.

Excellent, really glad that was able to get resolved. We’ve had to deal with domain name issues here too, its an extremely stressful experience that I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy.

Thx!

Can’t give an ETA yet. I’ve got a few more back-end things to finish up, then @sleeplessone1917 and I will work on lemmy-ui.

Then I also gotta work on getting jerboa updated also. So much work and so few developers.

No probs!

This meme basically:

To OP’s point tho, I think the fediverse is a lot more ideologically diverse than reddit or other corporate platforms. The fact that you can say something positive about the Palestinian resistance without getting banned, or say something positive about a country on the US-enemy list, is a testament to that diversity.

Sure, there are many servers on the fediverse that are anti-communist, and orientalist / western supremacist, and block leftist ones, copying reddit’s moderation policy. But on the US-run corporate platforms(FB, reddit, twitter, bluesky), you aren’t given any option: that’s a non-negotiable default that you must accept. Here you can always join a server that’s willing to federate with leftist ones, and is okay with ideological diversity, even if you don’t consider yourself one.

I did add torrent magnet link support to lemmy-ui and jerboa (I think its not deployed yet for jerboa tho). But yes I agree, inline or inplace torrent viewing (for images specifically) is something that ppl should absolutely be working on.

This is a completely solved problem for 24 years now (static data distribution), via torrents.

No probs! We have an issue to discuss more funding options, because it definitely is a problem. Only 2 full-time devs is not enough to handle this project and all its requests, and we need to grow our lemmy dev coop to keep up. Minimum I’d say we’d need 4 full-time devs in different areas just to keep up with issues.

I’m definitely open to adding those annoying wikipedia-style notifications inside lemmy-ui to hit a fundraising goal, because they do work. There are other possibilities too.

We haven’t done any releases yet, but no post scores will still be okay.

No probs!

Erps, my bad.

With a few more additions, lemmy could serve as a good replacement. We already have a Forum / NewComments sort which is perfect for question / answer type communities. We could add a feature to make default sorts for specific communities, so they would feel less fast, or possibly a sort that brings zero comment posts (IE meaning unanswered), to the top.

The reputation and “accepted answer” features from SO are a lot less important than threaded comments can be, especially since questions often need new answers every year, making the “accepted answer” pointless.

To update everyone:

In getting ready for the upcoming lemmy release, we usually deploy a test release here on lemmy.ml (the dev instance) for a few days, to discover any issues for a large production server, so other people don’t have to.

We found a performance issue with this one, so we downgraded back to 0.19.3, and restored from a database backup made a few hours ago.

I apologize for the few hours of downtime that caused today.

Okay we’re back! Sorry about the downtime, was ~40m.

If they are banned from that community, they won’t be able to post.

Federating instance bans is a separate thing for far later on, but I recently added a “hack” that bans you from communities local to the instance you were banned on, and those should federate.
