  To be fair, it was only for new users, and it can be disabled now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This is exactly what I’m looking for, thanks!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  How do you differentiate them then?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ungoogled chromium has always referred to browsers based on chromium, but not branded as Google chrome.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Also: ublock origin lite works excellently.

  Its my laptop being from 2010 <3

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  What non-google chromium based browsers would you guys recommend?

  Firefox (and derivatives) are slow as shit on my laptop, but ungoogled chromium is fast enough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Is this new users or users switching from Lemmy ?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fun fact: you can't upload this image on piefed.social⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Off the top of my head,

  Since votes on Lemmy aren’t private, anyone can view them. Piefed added anonymized votes (iirc, by sending them from a shadow user with a username that was a hash of the actual voters username), this raised concerns, as vote spam could be harder to spot/stop, so it was removed.

  I am very interested in what client you are using. Do you have a screenshot of this?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fun fact: you can't upload this image on piefed.social⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Its already configurable—some people sent patches for those things already.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fun fact: you can't upload this image on piefed.social⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It is worth noting that almost all of these can be disabled by admins (anarchist.nexus has them disabled mostly iirc). Piefed has a lot of good features still.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fun fact: you can't upload this image on piefed.social⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You could mention this at lemmy.today/c/lemmytoday

  Also, you could upload the images to postimages.org and use the direct link

  They thought it poisoned llms (it didn’t, and they ignored people who mentioned it). Not to evade any ai thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fun fact: you can't upload this image on piefed.social⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think that’s unrelated.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fun fact: you can't upload this image on piefed.social⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Iirc, a thing was added that converted the thorn character to a th because some user was annoying everyone by using thorns instead of ths.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fun fact: you can't upload this image on piefed.social⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The snippet that does this is:

  if site.enable_chan_image_filter:
                  # Do not allow fascist meme content
                  try:
                      if '.avif' in uploaded_file.filename:
                          import pillow_avif  # NOQA
                      image_text = pytesseract.image_to_string(Image.open(BytesIO(uploaded_file.read())).convert('L'))
                  except FileNotFoundError:
                      image_text = ''
                  except UnidentifiedImageError:
                      image_text = ''
  
                  if 'Anonymous' in image_text and (
                          'No.' in image_text or ' N0' in image_text):  # chan posts usually contain the text 'Anonymous' and ' No.12345'
                      self.image_file.errors.append(
                          "This image is an invalid file type.")  # deliberately misleading error message
                      current_user.reputation -= 1
                      db.session.commit()
                      return False

  I’m not entirely against banning 4chan content (as you said, it’s his instance), but I think doing it this way is sloppy at best, and deceptive at worst.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But think of the landlords!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The blocks usually have a lot of green areas (that’s why most of the pictures are from winter, they look gloomier). They were designed to be lived in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But think of the landlords!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Copying and pasting an old comment i made:

  Honestly, commieblocks arent that bad. Most of the pictures of them are cherry picked to be the unmaintained, dirty ones, and are exclusively taken in gloomy weather. The houses on the inside are usually good quality as well (though likely not well maintained anymore).

  Hell, if you just painted them colourfully, they’d look nice.

  Barinsta was a full client, not just a simple frontend.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I made a self-hostable frontend for instagram.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was able to delete my Twitter account because of nitter, because I could view posts without logging in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I made a self-hostable frontend for instagram.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So is twitter not social media if you just use it to read hashtags, and get clarity and insight from the comments?

  Other social media sites can very much be topic centered

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I made a self-hostable frontend for instagram.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I would definitely call a forum or IRC channel social media.

  I wouldn’t consider blogs social media unless they had a very active comments section.
