And you really don’t want it to either. That could cause all sorts of privacy issues if you accidentally include private information in the conversation - and as far as I have heard it is harder to remove information from LLMs than it is to “add” information to it.
Also Microsoft’s Tay could adapt itself based on conversations and that went real well…
Unfortunately, if they were to do this I’d imagine they’d be able to know you blocked them - as your instance would need to tell the other instance (and if they were a single user instance they could grab that record from the database) to hide your comments/posts. Which could cause even more problems as there are definitely people who’d go scorched earth over it. Even if they didn’t go on a rampage about it, they’d still be able to just then logout and see what you’re saying because of that.
From what I recall in the ActivityPub spec, transmitting blocks is already there, but I imagine no one implements it for that reason.
They might be talking from a mobile perspective (or alternative UI) since a lot of them have that ability. Though, the next Lemmy update will have that feature natively thankfully!
That just means that moving forward, now you will! 😅
They do! There are donation options listed at the bottom of the Join Lemmy website.
Because Two-Factor Authentication is generally supposed to be under the principle of “Something you have and something you know”, the password being the “know”, and using a TOTP on an app via your phone would be the “have” (the phone).
I suppose if your email is restricted to the something you have/know it’s a bit better, and certainly better than nothing - but not by much.
Your SSL certificate is expired, as of 6 days ago, federation won’t work without HTTPs.
Once you fix that, I would assume it should start working again (it may take a bit for federation to resume once this is done)
You are right, apologies I should’ve been more specific about that! When I wrote the original comment, I was on mobile and had brought up the bookmark and was like “Oh damn, Photon looks great on mobile!” 😅
There’s not a way to change it on an individual level.
As far as I’m aware / heard, when an instance has it disabled, it doesn’t even store information (or process) downvotes, so even if you could override it (such as by using a third party client) there’d be nothing to view.
I could be wrong though, might be worth trying some of the mobile apps to see if it displays it, just to confirm. For desktop, there’s also Photon.
I don’t generally go with the “Oh no, anyways…” comment, but that’s truly how I feel about the whole Reddit drama at this point.
They made their bed, and now they have to lie in it. I have zero confidence they’ll change, and even on the remote chance they wanted to, its pretty much too late for that.
Do you by chance have the logs from lemmy-ui’s container?
Fair enough then! I guess in that case maybe Lemmy with federation disabled is your best bet? I know you mentioned not doing this in your original post, but since if you were to use a standard message board software, it’s unlikely to have federation implemented (at least, I don’t know of any that work with ActivityPub) so you wouldn’t be losing anything more than with the other approach.
You could even go with lemmyBB which is Lemmy, with a standard forums interface.
I haven’t looked into forums software in a long time, but Discourse is what I hear often recommend.
That seems like a pretty cool idea - though I do think there would also need to be a push for mobile apps to support a similar concept. While I personally don’t, I am sure there are plenty of people who only browse the Fediverse on mobile.
Also on a side note, those are some pretty good additions to Hexbear’s code of conduct.
Yep, my apologies I should’ve been a bit more clear - a lot of stores during the pandemic put up signs saying that they preferred for you to use tap-to-pay as a preventative / safety measure, and this store is one of them.
Of course, even during the peak point of the pandemic that prompt was still there, and is still there… and due to the medication that I’m on I am somewhat immunocompromised so I would prefer to not have to touch the screen since everyone who pays using anything that isn’t cash has to also touch the display.
This is probably going to sound a bit silly, but legitimately the fact that it’s installed on most Linux systems by default (and if not full blown vim, then vi - or rather, vim-tiny often). VSCode has the Remote SSH extension, but the last time I checked it automatically installed the VSCode server (?) binary on the remote system. Often times I’m administrating systems that aren’t mine, and do not want to leave random bits of VSCode onto it. Even if that weren’t the case, its a lot easier for me to just open a file in vim since I’m already at a shell, rather than having to open VSCode, then wait for it to initialize (though it is quick!), activate Remote SSH and connect to the server which triggers the same initialization since it has to start the server-side component.
Another probably silly sounding reason is that the keybinds are the same ones that you use in a lot of POSIX tools like man, less/more, Firefox even uses / to activate quick-find (while you’re not in a text field of course) though admittedly I believe that is the only one, hell even bash itself if you use set -o vi (by default its in Emacs mode - this is actually a feature of the readline library that bash uses as far as I understand).
Though admittedly, those mostly are Linux/Remote Administration reasons and doesn’t apply to everyone - but those were some of my initial motivations.
I hate this specifically for one of the corner stores at my house. When I use tap-to-pay (or I assume swiping a card), it gives me a “Would you like to register for our rewards program? Selecting no will not impact your ability to complete this purchase” prompt…
Except then I’m forced to actually physically click “No”, which circumvents the whole point of not having to touch the POS terminal when using tap-to-pay…

The comment was made 2 years ago - but as to whether it’s attempting to masquerade the real reasoning behind it, I can’t really say since I’m not the devs. I just thought it was worth copying over the comment contents since you mentioned you couldn’t see it, I figured there might be others who couldn’t as well!
And additionally, to the community at large - admins, moderators, people who post/comment - we all have played a major part in expanding Lemmy and the Fediverse in general!
