- Comment on Do we need more users ? 1 week ago:
My point about “niche” is that from the current perspective, the niche communities is the more regular ones, because at the moment, the majority of users here is technical. We need more ordinary users, not just more users.
- Comment on Do we need more users ? 1 week ago:
I so feel we need more users, but not just users. It’s “niche” users we need. There’s a lot of techies on the threadiverse (Lemmy, PieFed, Mbin), but not enough people who care about other stuff.
So communities outside that, struggle to thrive.
- Comment on The Votely Political Quiz - Most Accurate 3D Political Compass 1 week ago:
I was lazy and just took the short version. It’s alright.
- Comment on How Hackers Are Fighting Back Against ICE 1 week ago:
For the redirect from YouTube to PeerTube, it just uses the video title. This sometimes results in a “false positive”, but it does work.
You can try it with “The Linux Experiment”.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
I don’t really think so, no.
- Comment on BentoPDF is a self hostable, privacy first PDF Toolkit 3 weeks ago:
I use this at home and I’m thinking of setting this up at work, to prevent my colleagues from using shady PDF-sites, for merging or splitting PDF-files.
How does the license work for internal use at a company, by it employees?
- Comment on Throwing ideas out for lemmy 3 weeks ago:
Lemmy is literally a link aggregator. You link to stuff and then it can be discussed.
If you wanna create c/florida, go for it. Post news, politics, humor, facts, questions etc. related to Florida.
If you need inspiration, you can always look at that other place subreddit 😉

Thanks for the suggestion.
Do you play any games on it?

- Comment on Does Lemmy need a fork or a rewrite due to its maintainers views? 4 weeks ago:
I just wish .ml was more honest with their rules and policies, so people can actually make an informed decision, before they sign up there.
- Comment on Is there a redirector plug in 4 weeks ago:
I use one for PeerTube and another for Lemmy. Firefox addons.
Can’t remember the names, but should be fairly easy to find.
- Comment on What is the best way to support Lemmy specifically and the Fediverse in general financially? 4 weeks ago:
I suggest you financially support PieFed instead and the instance you are on.
- Comment on Loops publishes their recommender algorithm 5 weeks ago:
Hoping for something like this for PeerTube and personal customisation of the algorithm.
- Comment on Loops publishes their recommender algorithm 5 weeks ago:
You can do something about the content 😊
- Comment on Fediverse wide cross-instance / cross-platform link substitution [UX improvement thoughts] 5 weeks ago:
How the links act is different from client to client. If you click the link in the Lemmy web UI, it will take you directly to Lemmy.wtf, but if you used Voyager (iOS client), it will automatically redirect to your own instance.
This is something that should be built into the Lemmy web UI.
You can also use browser addons. I have an addon that redirects me to my own instance, if I click on a link in my browser. I also have an addon that takes me from YouTube to Peertube, if the video also exist in PeerTube or if I click a PeerTube link, it takes me to my instance.
Also how dare you criticise the awesome TLD .wtf, which is clearly an abbreviation of “What The Fediverse”?!

- Comment on The Fediverse and Content Creation: Monetization 1 month ago:
You would still need a payment processor, which takes a huge chunk of the cake in fees.

- Comment on The problem of cross-community posting 2 months ago:
I think it shows other comments, if the posts is crossposted.
- Comment on The problem of cross-community posting 2 months ago:
Every instance should simply just stop thinking they should have their own version of X community.
Doesn’t PieFed merge communities with the same name?
- Comment on YouTube is taking down videos on performing nonstandard Windows 11 installs 2 months ago:
It depends on the instance, since most PeerTube instances are very limited in their federation with other instances. Check out this link: lemmy.wtf/post/15816115 and pick one of them.
