• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what budget 3d printer would you suggest for a beginner?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Same here. SV06 was my first printer a few months ago. I've printed for a few hundred hours without issue. Very easy to upgrade the software with a raspi and mainsailos.

  Is there a way to access the feeds remotely if you have the cams on a network without internet access?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We need to have a serious talk about this instance being federated with Lemmygrad, Hexbear, and tankies in general⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  How do you foresee tankies poisoning the whole fediverse? Do you find their arguments compelling? It doesn't even seem like they are trying to make a case, they are just bluntly stating misinformation. If we are going to remove all misinformation then we are going to need paid admins because even at the current scale its a full time job. Or should we only remove certain misinformation? I see blatant misinformation everywhere on the fediverse already and only a tiny percentage is tankie related.

  Have you considered hosting your own instance? Its not difficult and you can control exactly who you federate with.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We should have something like federated communities⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait, what? No, not at all. There is no reason for them to redundantly store all the data.

  Imagine the same concept but the data is just being aggregated. The purpose is that content gets more exposure and engagement not to create an archive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We should have something like federated communities⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  All I'm saying is that if /c/butterflies exists on multiple instances they should be able to "aggregate" themselves as if they were one instance. We don't have enough users to isolate small communities; they have no shot here.

  If large federated communities want to exclude others... those others can just form their own federated group. We're still in a much better position than if we had one large community on a single instance or a speckling of tiny ones across the fediverse that aren't large enough to drive engagement.

  In the current model small communities are forced to choose a server. When that server goes down we lose an entire community. Two examples off the top of my head are Firefox and Android. We can't count on legends to save us every time. And why go through that chaos when we have the underlying systems to avoid it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We should have something like federated communities⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You are literally describing reddit. Allowing mods to federate communities together would be novel.

  The beauty of the fediverse is that when one volunteer-run server goes down (as happens all the time) there is little disruption if your feed is filling with other instance's content. You can't count on these volunteer-run servers to have 99.9% uptime like reddit, they can disappear over night.

  Same idea for communities. If lemmy.world disappears tomorrow there are dozens of communities that disappear with it; fragmented across the fediverse. If mods of those communities were federated with complementary communities on other instances then there is no disruption.

  I don't think that communities should automatically federate, it should be agreed to by the mods. But with the current population we can't afford to keep identical communities isolated. Many will die a slow death when together it could have been thriving.

  This is a good idea. If it grouped similar searches together and only counted them as "one" it would feel a lot more usable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Domains Kagi users block⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep, that's what I ended up doing. It worked amazingly well for my simple task while i struggled with "types" or something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Domains Kagi users block⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I've been enjoying kagi but it's tough trying to operate with a limited number of searches. For example: when I'm struggling to put together some basic python I'm used to iterating through many different queries to find the results I need. At 1.5 cents a search (or whatever) I have to be more careful. I can't swing $25/mo for my search engine at the moment.

  I'm surprised this makes sense. When I priced out solar panels and batteries for a similar setup, earlier this year, it was going to take decades just to break even.
