Not just JSON; they said to name the baby .JSON. Reminds me of a post somewhere where someone asked if they could officially name their baby something with a newline character in it.

I assume that is a better experience in just about every way!

I just know of the two types of games

I do not see any documentation, but here is the pull request for the feature that was added in v0.19.4

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4425

If the URL being posted is anything other than an image, yes. If the URL being posted is a video, an article, an MP3, whatever. If you don’t want to leave it up to Lemmy to try to grab a thumbnail do display for the post, you have the option to expicitly specify the thumbnail image to be used.

On the other hand, if the URL that you are posting is itself an image (JPEG, PNG, GIF, WEBP, whatever), you might notice that the “Thumbnail URL” field disappears. Because Lemmy will use the image you are posting as the thumbnail.

Great information, I appreciate it!

Given that, I don’t really see the point, other than trying to a completist about stuff.

Considering this is just a silly community about a TV show that ended a decade ago, I absolutely agree. But, hypothetically speaking, could it be possible to fully sync, votes and all? Given some important community where vote counts actually did matter for some reason, could admins from both instances coordinate with each other to manually query their respective databases to get historical posts, comments, upvotes, and downvotes synchronized?

However, what you can do is find content that you want to interact with on the remote instance, copy the URL and then search for that URL on your server. That will pull that content and its context to your instance.

Neat! Though it does not pull all context, just the “upstream” context. Meaning that if I search a post’s or comment’s URL, it will not pull in comments below it. But if I search a low-level comment, it will pull in all parent comments from that comment chain as well as the post itself. And, like another commenter mentioned, it will not pull in the votes.

EDIT: On second thought, what I call “upstream context” is probably what Lemmy technically considers simply “context”, isn’t it?

People in my organization do this, and it’s great. The only downside to that is when you want recipients to know exactly who else the email was sent to. Not super common, in my experience, but it does occur.

Regular people on the other hand, are lazy, inconsistent and generally oblivious to whether or not they’re being ambiguous.

So the answer is “if/when they come out”?

I do not know Ruby, but Python has a lot of syntactic sugar that, if one becomes used to and proficient with it, makes writing much faster than other languages I know (including JavaScript).

Python is by far the fastest to write, cleanest, more maintainable programming language I know

Maintainable? I have not ever had to work with any large Python projects, but from what I have heard, maintenance is a large pain point.

It seems “vanilla” Python is slow, but a JIT implementation like PyPy can speed things up significantly. The major downside seems to be that PyPy does not support Python code that relies on some CPython libraries.

The vultures at the zoo got to it first.

What does this change mean for me, as a user? That if a comment chain has 50 comments, I simply cannot reply to the 50th comment?

Perhaps descended from immigrants. I presume most are native, meaning they were born in that nation.
