Haven’t tested it but it seems so. Android client has the button too

Actually no, it isn’t personal

It comes from the very same thing you wrote in the second part of this post. No-one on Lemmy gets paid for their work. And communities have to be easy to set up, so “the committee” does not become a burned-out, too-powerful, bottleneck
But that means that it is also OUR (non-mod, just a lemming) responsibility to mark stuff that we feel is out of line, when we have the capacity to do so. If lemmy.world agrees this is out of line, simply blocking and muting does not help the wider community, only solves the problem for me. Anyone else coming in with fresh account will see this shit on the front, local posts page

And yes, the ones crossing the lines can easily come back. And I probably won’t catch them next time because I’ll be busy with my RL. That’s fine
What I do have control over is whether I cover the eyes or not. When I don’t have capacity to mark something, I cover them and move along. Other times, I flag them. In this situation I couldn’t find a report button for a whole community so created a post

It’s the same as a pile of trash on the pavement. If it’s not a burden in their schedule, a regular member of public should call the city about it. And when they don’t have time to do that, hopefully someone else will, that were busy the other day. How many of these someone-elses there are is not something we can control. But we can control if we are the someone else ATM

If we want to have corp-less commons, we have to be part of the team sometimes, when we have the capacity to do so
I had for this one, and now I’m moving on with my life :) ✌

What about Element/Matrix?

Ok so now you’re asking to speak to the managers manger, and that’s gunna be the developers dude.

Yeah, but maybe there is a button for that already, and I just can’t find it

I get your sentiment bc I have to follow tos myself. But can I ask what other stuff would you put in the category of harmful? Just asking straight not yelling at you here.

I don’t have a straight up list for that but some other examples I’d say would be:

• how to get everything mortgaged to invest in our casino
• how to get diazepine by cooking up cough pills (I’m inventing the names here)
• how to spot <ethnicity>
• maybe-snuff videos

I find the porn shit to be in the obscene annoying category. Like I’m in a field trying to catch butterflies and all there are, are fucking mosquitos lol

To me it’s not the porn that’s the problem, it’s the attitude in the community description
Not so long ago there have been repeated news about mistreatment of women in India. Big part of Hindu ethnicity lives in India. IMO this kind of content normalizes aggressive objectification
I know that porn is just a fantasy. But it seems (I won’t be spending time on searching for the papers, sorry. These are ~last year, so shouldn’t be hard to find) that for some reason this kind of fantasy does induce intimacy problems

I know that there are many others like that and there are other areas of human life that gets skewed with content-insatiability and marketing. But if I can’t mark them all IMO doesn’t mean I shouldn’t mark the one I see

And to freedom-fighters:
Lemmy being a federation, if someone wants to create a server about cooking aspirin, I’m fine with that. But I chose this instance also because of what was in the rules. I felt that community was crossing the line and asked if mods feel the same

But that’s just a block for me. Not a removal. I think harmful stuff should be removed

I got that reference!

It was a great adventure. But yeah, that setup was on 24/7. Not because of compilation, but it definitely made a lot of this more feasible

Gentoo unstable was a little bit tiring in the long run. The bleeding edge, but often I needed to downgrade because the rest of the libraries were not ready

Gentoo stable was really great. Back then pulseaudio was quite buggy. Having a system where I could tell all applications and libraries to not even link to it (so no need to have it installed at all) made avoiding its problems really easy
But when my hardware got older and compilation of libreoffice started to take 4h, I remembered how nice it was on Slackware where you just install package you broke and you’re done

Arch looked like a nice middle-ground. Most of the things in packages, big focus on pure Linux configurability (pure /etc files, no Ubuntu(or SUSE?) “you need working X.org to open distro-specific graphics card settings”) and AUR for things there are no official packages for. Turned out it was a match :)

Windows (~6 years) -> Mandriva (Mandrake? For I think 2-3 years) -> Ubuntu (1 day) -> Suse (2 days) -> Slackware (2-3 years) -> Gentoo unstable (2-3 years) -> Gentoo stable (2-3 years) -> Arch (9 years and counting)

The only span I’m sure about is the last one. When I started a job I decided I don’t have the time to compile the world anymore. But the values after Windows sum up to 21, should be 20, so it’s all more or less correct

If you want to access your computer from outside your LAN, it would be a good idea to at least secure it or, unfortunately the best, learn to understand what you are doing

Coming back to the topic, though, I’d start with checking these out

Characters in the title are not the regular ones making it look like a spam mail, no link, description sounds like corpo LLM. If there really is some podcast somewhere, I think it deserves better

WONTFIX: Works as intended

Two way as in “upload too” or “another share from other device”?

https://f-droid.org/pl/packages/be.ppareit.swiftp_free/
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.daemon.ssh/

I create a Directory, and that directory and it’s files become available to network

So basically you want to set up an ftp server?

You mean like LocalSend, croc, Share via HTTP or ShareX?

I think I’ve found an app some time ago that was just setting up an HTTP file server, so you could share whole directories. But I didn’t have use for it and I forgot the name

No, that is actually useful. Blocking access for anonymous users is not

If anything, the boom of LLMs like copilot and chatgpt actually shows the power of open source and open access to information. Underlying algorithms would mean nothing without open source, open access to stackoverflow, forums, etc

Microsoft acquired Github and the discussions around the future of opensource on a microsoft owned infrastructure

Personally I’m impressed it took them so long to start driving it to the ground

I moved to Codeberg

Codeberg is a non-profit, community-led organization that aims to help free and open source projects prosper by giving them a safe and friendly home

Yes, I can. But you need much more to accomplish this

1. You need reach: are there any mods/admins that would feel ok with vouching for your abilities? And preferably have info about your proposal stickied on a bunch of communities where it could reach people open to chip in?
2. You need to convince those you reach that you’re not a Nigerian Prince. Mod/Admin saying you’re legit could help with it but maybe there’s something more you could do to convince the public?
   Maybe I simply don’t know who you are, maybe in reality you are second in command after Dessalines. But either you are a random dev saying “I can do that” - in this case you need to somehow convince others that you really can. Or you are not recognised for your work - in this case you need to point us to what tie you to. I saw the fedi project on your GitHub so you probably can code (I’m not going to be auditing your project in order to asses your skills, sorry). But are you just a dreamer or are you serious?
   I’m sorry if what I’m saying sounds harsh. I just feel that how you are coming through to the other side gets lost in translation here
3. GitHub is not the most popular support medium. Why not also have Patreon/Koffi/OpenCollective/etc? Many will chip in easier if they’re already present on the platform

Unless there’s a bunch of people that create open-source firmware/HAL

But even if, I think it’s still an improvement. Even if firmware is proprietary, you could flash it on “titan-compatible” chip when yours dies making your device independent from chip ownership etc

There are other communities too

Maybe I’m going to do something, maybe I’m not. Why the demanding tone?

I also think that grassroots economy would work better for many things. But we’re not there, the world doesn’t work like that ATM. Wish for 10% of people to contribute is very optimistic IMO.
You need much wider spread, and for me (for example) your tool is the only thing that gives you any credibility. If there are others like me, you might be missing clout for a call to support like that to simply just work
