It’s difficult to tell what’s going on, but I don’t think so: https://xcancel.com/Grimezsz/status/1900365679263658268#m

PieFed’s repo is hosted by Codeberg - it’s the right thing to do in many ways, but occasionally it’s borderline unusable, and I get the sense that it misses out on potential contributors by not being on GitHub (projects there benefit from the network effect).

I don’t, no, sorry.

Maybe try asking in !antikythera_support@lemmy.world ? The people there are not like us, but they are (probably) not to be feared.

Well done Scotland, for drafting and actually enforcing this law.

It’s no surprise that this woman, and the others pictured in the article, are all of a demographic that they’re not going to have to actually make maternal healthcare decisions for themselves.

PieFed and Lemmy are different software platforms for interacting with the Fediverse (of which they are both separate parts). It’s a bit like how Spotify and Tidal are both for streaming music, and you can see the same artists on both, but you can’t use Spotify’s app to sign in to Tidal. PieFed’s API is fairly similar to Lemmy’s, for the routes that it covers, but not exactly the same, so you can’t use Lemmy apps with PieFed, or PieFed apps with Lemmy.

(edit, just 'cos LW is being a bit slow.)

Typically, if you see that one person is being banned from a bunch of communities at the same time, it just means that they are being banned from the instance.

If an admin wants to ban one of their own users, it’s a single activity that’s federated out, but if they want to ban a remote user, the only way it can be done under the current system is for every community that the banned person has interacted with to ban them. It’s an automatic process, triggered by the admin pressing one button once. (it’s not a perfect solution, because nothing prevents the banned user interacting with other communities, at least as far as their local instance is concerned).

TV shows and movies are already compressed. If you try to compress something that’s already compressed, it typically ends up bigger if anything.

No, you’re right. It’s just how it sounds with Sanders’ distinct accent.

I started a new account, on a new instance, and the very first notification I got was for a spam message from that ‘fediverse chick’ person. It really made that “it’s like email” connection feel complete.

Clarkson has been trying to warn us for years, and we haven’t been listening. He punched a producer when his dinner wasn’t on time, to highlight the impending delays to food deliveries after Brexit. He left the BBC to work for Amazon, presenting a show that was a shadow of it’s former self, to illustrate how billionaires diminish everything they touch.

He couldn’t be clearer with his messaging, but the UK continues to ignore him.
