What a difference two and a half years makes.
@carnage4life … for The Executive that is left.
Just for clarity. It's Wooks I'm against. Not woke. You can be a lil woke. As a treat.
Just don't get crazy.
Now if you're both woke and a wook....
Well maybe.you need Devo-Netics
@RevKlausMondo I assume a Woke Wook would lose at Space Chess, tear your arms off, and then apologize for poor sportsmanship.

Microsoft sided with the fossil fuel funded fascists.

More of a ‘if I don’t use this for a week, I’ll see new things’. If I log in after 2 or 3 days, I’ll scroll for 10 minutes and see the stuff I saw last time.
I had this exact experience. The solution? Just loud subscribe to stuff and now I have 80 notifications a day about new posts which I struggle to keep up with. Clearly the fediverse isn't as inactive as I had the impression from just browsing it.
The captchas on Lemmy are AWFUL, I can't do them either.
Do all Lemmy frontends use those captchas? Might be a reason to recommend a different one by default.
I do have to say, I bounced off Lemmy and Piefed mostly due to their UI and UX. I probably wouldn't have joined the fediverse if I didn't come across a kbin.social recommendation back then. Mbin is much more up my alley, though not ideal either, but it has worked out for me so far.

Though whether people choose to learn or not, we’ll see. What I am saying is that our collective haughty attitude where we know that we are superior (which is somewhat true, except for all the ways that we willfully choose to ignore where it is not) is not helping.
If we want others to come here - and there’s a good most likely >50% here who do NOT want that, mind you! - then we would have to entice them to do so, which practically speaking I simply do not see happening. e.g. if Lemmy’s instance block tool would actually function to “block” all the content from an “instance” then yeah that would be just great. Or if Dessalines would allow donations to the codebase separately from the maintenance costs of specifically Lemmy.ml. Or if Rimu would listen to community feedback instead of… whatever the opposite of that is. And so on, ad nauseum.
YOU may want people to come here. However, keeping in mind that they would primarily be right-wing or at most centrist Christians from the USA, or centrist Muslims from the UK, etc., note that others here are the polar opposite of welcoming to such an influx of users.
So they stay there. Or go to Bluesky. It’s their choice. Again, if we want to make coming here more of a viable option, then we would need to put in some actual effort into making this a more receptive place to be for them.
Your argument is completely undermined by the fact that you are clearly only concerned with chastising people to the left of you because you believe most people are to the right of you.
This is a belief that is not necessarily grounded in reality.
Besides, there are many versions of people, if this one invites in the best versions of people that is fine by me but also no one controls this, the burden is on people to realize they need to leave corporate social media.

Captchas are served by the server, not a frontend thing. Otherwise they would be pretty useless for spam protection.
So with the Duo, how do you just throw it on a MagSafe stand and have it go into Standby Mode? Do you *have* to open it? Because then it rotates on the stand

New Maps with data from October 25
Our latest maps with OpenStreetMap data from October 25 are now out. You can press “check for updates” in the app to see them and start downloading them.
Just in time for the 2026 State of the Map Latin America conference that is kicking off tomorrow in Mexico City. If you’re there: Say hi to our contributor Bastian, listen to his talk about CoMaps, and grab some stickers! 🇲🇽

Scalpels is free. Your apps stay in your own account.
We are being told to guzzle the LLM kool-aid without asking any questions. And it's clear who's going to profit and who's going to get f---ed.
These tech oligarchs are not your overlords unless you submit.
@passthejoe unfortunately the cult has completely won. There are zero job software eng listings without LLM as a requirement. We are no longer allowed to use personal expertise to decide how to accomplish goals.

Reddit's r/opensource bans AI slop, and quite a few humans for good measure
Meanwhile on reddit.
Honestly kind of sounds like lemmy.world mods like Jordan Lund tho…
To get a project featured on the subreddit, developers now need to show it has been actively maintained for at least a year, has an established community, and has at least three contributors, give or take. Student projects such as note-taking apps and PDF viewers aren’t welcome either, and developers can no longer use the subreddit to find people willing to help maintain their software.
That creates a chicken-and-egg problem for independent developers, who apparently need an established community before they can use an open source forum to find one. Even projects with no AI involvement could fall foul of the rules. One Reddit user pointed out that their nine-year-old project, which has more than 300 GitHub stars and dozens of resolved issues, would no longer qualify because they’re its sole contributor.
The moderator also imposed a minimum Reddit account age of one year and requires significant prior contributions. Anyone who attempts to post and then contacts the moderators seeking an exception risks being permanently banned and muted.
Ayup, dropping Proton was a good move that keeps paying dividends
