BOT! KILL IT!

That’s why they’re talking about the next generation.

With AI you can easily generate 100 different ways to say the same thing. And it’s hard to distinguish a bot that’s parroting someone else from a person who’s repeating something they heard.

Ok.

Both support stronger safety features in chromium and criminals and bullies got equated to kicking puppies. That’s why it’s a shoddy attempt at illustrating their reasoning.

There’s some massive misunderstanding about my comment.

I called it a false equivalency because it’s comparing both the measures (“stronger safety”) and the thing is supposed to prevent (doxing and bullying) to puppy kicking.

That’s just emotional manipulation done badly. We all call it out when politicians use pedophiles to warrant Internet surveillance, and now apply it ourselves? I don’t know about you, but when I see bad reasoning, I’ll call it out. Even if it’s done by “my side”.

Kick a puppy

If you have to resort to false equivalences like these, you’re not really making the anti-WEI crowd look good.

Storage on the vm won’t be too much of an issue, as long as you make sure to use Object Storage (s3) for pict-rs from the start. For Lemmit (just a few users, but hundreds of communities and over 150k posts) I’m doing fine with just 2 GB of memory, 1 vcpu, and 2 GB of disk storage for postgres. The storage bucket is sitting at 36 GB.

You might want to scale up cpu and memory for more users as you grow, but you’d be surprise with how little resources you can get away.

How many password managers have you been trying out this week?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but Lemmys tokens have no expiration, right? So they are effectively username and password combined.

Which table/columns am I looking at here?

What the Wandermeister over here said.

Object storage generally is much cheaper than vm disk space (I got 1TB for $5/month at vultr). And the sooner you do it, the better - the migration process took 3 hours for me yesterday, transferring just over 102k files (34 GB).

In a way this is the opposite of what you’re asking, but this is kind of the reason I set up https://lemmit.online - To allow people to get quality content like !itookapicture@lemmit.online automatically onto Lemmy.

Anyone can request subs to be synced, and admittedly, not all of those requests make sense, since it doesn’t sync comments. But the goal is to bootstrap content creation / combat people returning to reddit because they miss content there.

BTW, what’s the difference between this and Pythörhead (apart from being easier to type? :p)

Nice! :D

As a side note: do your instances work when you put Cloudflare in proxy mode in front of it? At my current provider that breaks, but I’m not sure if that’s due to their implementation, or inherit to the software.

What kind of payment options do you provide? All the managed Lemmy instances I’ve found so far seem to be credit card (or crypto) only, which would be a hassle for me. In The Netherlands, iDEAL is used for most online transactions, and can be easily set up through through Stripe for example.

Either way, this is a great development, kudos to you! :)

Ha! I have been working on the same thing this weekend, except it uses the rss feed for posts and scrapes old.reddit.com for the details. It’s written in python, but not quite finished - scraping works, automation not yet.

My plan was to have a separate Lemmy instance for this, where people can also request for new subs to be included. This would reduce the spam in bigger communities, and allow instances to block it all together if they wanted to.

Beside that, I’d pre- or postfix each post with a message it’s a copy and a link to the original for copyright reasons. Moderation would be a separate story - Not particularly looking forward to that. Could make it so that if a post were flagged, it would re-aync with the original. Let reddit do the moderation :D
