I hope sukebei would have the archive of removed titles soon.
- Comment on One thing I hope to see in the Fediverse is people engaging with old content 10 months ago:
We don’t know how the fediverse would play out in the long term but I expect a few things:
- Lemmy devs will implement locking old posts in the future
- instance owners will decide on their post locking policies
- Many instances will not survive for as long as Reddit survived till today
- Third party archivers (perhaps archive.org among others) will need to step in and archive posts. Ofc archived posts is not interactible.

- Comment on Confusing disk with /dev/null for years [2:23] 1 year ago:
IMHO video links should always be YouTube first, then third party mirror second, in the body or comments. Here are the reasons:
- YouTube is the primary source. Always prioritize the primary source when you’re sourcing.
- Think of the URL being shared as the primary key to a database. Lemmy can use it to detect dupes. With YouTube url there’s like 3 forms, discounting timestamps. With piped links the possibility expanded to 3+(number of piped instances on the web). This massively increases the likelihood of reposts.
- Give the users a choice of whether they want to watch on the original site, or on a piped instance of their own choosing. When you link to a piped instance link you rob people of that choice.
- A piped instance can choke or go offline at any time. YouTube is close to 100% uptime.
- Userscript wise, there’s an easy setup to map YouTube urls to a users piped instance of choice, but it’s so much more tedious to map every single piped instance to another.

- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I was put off of one instance by community feud with a self-appointed HOA-type representative, and on another by downvotes on any opinion comment that I made on otherwise empty posts. Switching platform sadly can’t fix the problem of awful people. 😔
- Comment on Is there a way to comment on peertube with a lemmy account? 1 year ago:
Iirc there was a bug with an older version of Lemmy that turns off propagation of content from outside communities/magazines/channels after 3 days without activity. It might have stayed that way even after the updates. Try unsubbing and resubbing again.
- Comment on The lengths we have to go to 1 year ago:
My editor turns tabs into 4 spaces. No more “mixing tabs and spaces” errors afterwards.
- Comment on The lengths we have to go to 1 year ago:
Most disingenuous post ever.
The image shown is a dude with a browser dev console, probably measuring a div for the its CSS size (which do support centimeters and inches).
In python, 4 spaces is just enough spacing between indent levels. And if your levels get too deep it’s a sign you’re not being pythonic. Nesting too deep is the problem, not the significant whitespacing.

- Comment on YSK: You can use alexandrite (alternative lemmy web front-end) to switch your default post layout and easily switch between lemmy accounts 1 year ago:
A single caveat for lemmy.world users: Since lemmy.world is an ongoing conflict zone network load-wise, trying to log into your account every time the app switches accounts will often fail. Best keep your user account logged in through the default frontend at all times as backup.
