In this case I simply copied the text from last month, and adjusted the year and month everywhere. That is, everywhere except the title :D

These are already implemented, you can try them on voyager.lemmy.ml.

Oops we are in the new year already. Thanks!

The instance is blocked, I suppose thats why the link is rendered wrong. Why it was blocked I dont know.

Its been a long time, and youve been there almost since the beginning!, Congratulations, and good luck for the next five years!!

That comment is deleted, did you actually read it? If you check the modlog you will see that I didnt defend CSAM at all, but was only defending another user. Just to make it clear for you, I am against pedophilia. Its honestly impressive, you dont know me at all you try to paint me as some kind of evil supervillain over a few misinterpreted comments.

Good point, I renamed it to “hosted in” and also added a filter by continent ath the same time (https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site/pull/567). Translations are contributed by people like you via Weblate, contributions welcome!

Multiple language selection would be both complicated to implement and also complicated to use. Not even joinmastodon.org has it. I would simply select the language which is less common, for French there is only a single instance.

First of all, Lemmy is open source. If you or anyone else wants to improve things, please open issues with concrete suggestions, or better yet make a pull request.

The linked post also has various factual errors, not sure if AI hallucinations or the author was using older versions.

The first 30 second: Stop explaining federation up front

I changed this on join-lemmy.org a few days ago. Maybe its not reflected in other language translations yet.

Feeds: Lemmy needs content gravity, not just content

Not really sure what these mean, would have to see concrete examples of these supposed problems.

Search: “Technically present” isn’t enough

Search already shows communities first.

Portability: Lemmy’s killer feature new to feel real

Data migration between instances has been implemented for a long time.

That’s a good point, I’m also not sure if there is a good way for instance admins to change that on Pixelfed’s site. I don’t have a strong preference either way, but having some way for admins to update the information would be ideal. Perhaps an automated system with custom overrides through a file on the GitHub?

Not sure how you mean. Is it too complicated to make a pull request and edit the file I linked above?

It might be good to indicate that the instance in the first card is a random instance, and not an official or ‘flagship’ instance. That way, if it links to a poorly moderated / maintained instance, it doesn’t reflect poorly on the project. My personal preference would be to have the Browse All Servers be the primary button, and then the join button be secondary. A refresh button might also work: “Refresh for a new randomly selected server”

Its not random from the whole list, but selected from a curated list (currently only lemmus.org and thelemmy.club, see #545). Its displayed like this because a lot of people complained that choosing an instance is too complicated.

Very minor, but some of the images are light mode while others are dark mode. It might look better if it was consistent

The images are not great, I will make a similar post soon to get contributions, and feedback for better texts.

Ibis federates in the same way as Lemmy, so you can reference it as !wiki@ibis.wiki, and use that link to browse the articles or comment. There is currently no special syntax to link posts in Lemmy, but version 1.0 will automatically rewrite remote links to display them in your instance.

In Ibis you can enable article protection so only admins can edit. Editing wikis from Lemmy is not possible.

You can use open.ibis.wiki for all topics.

Sounds exactly like this: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5871

The website is already linking to google play store and apple store. right now apps that are purely web don’t have a platform to read reviews on . plus neodb lib.reviews are open source although they might not yet be ready for the task yet.

Those links are specifically for people searching an app for those platforms. Very different from asking for reviews.

I doubt that, any data? similarweb shows the top referring site for now is openalternative.co (although at least one of the referring sites mentioned doesn’t seem to make sense for me ).

No data, its my impression from reading various related discussions on Lemmy. We also added a new signup question on lemmy.ml today, asking people how they found out about Lemmy. That should give us some more info.

I think people would want to see average ratings. reading a community page means you only read 1-3 reviews and that sample size is too small and potentially biased. you could just run into people who hate a instance for some particular reason (and it’s not hard for me to think of reasons like that).

Feel free to start something for community ratings, I dont really have time or interest.

If login fails due to missing email verification, it should automatically show a link to resend the verification email.

You can ask an admin to ban the user, or remove the community. Then those comments wont federate anymore.

The frontend part for tags is currently being implemented: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/3795

Once that is merged it will automatically be deployed to voyager.lemmy.ml where you can test the development version.

This isnt really a matter of the API. Its up to developers of apps or frontends to show a badge for moderators on each comment, and this could also easily be hidden. This has come up before, but it seems no one really cares enough to push such a change through.

I dont like to send people off to these proprietary platforms. Besides Lemmy mainly gets promoted by word of mouth (eg people recommending it on Reddit), not by reviews. If people want to review Lemmy communities, it would make more sense to make a Lemmy community for that purpose.

Ah yes there is the short description at the top. At the moment it talks a lot about “it”, good idea to make it more focused on “you”. How about this?

Lemmy is a discussion platform that is truly free. You choose which communities to be a part of and which posts to see. You can use extensive blocking and filtering tools to sort and curate your feed. You are in control and not a corporation, so there is no tracking, advertising nor secret algorithms. And you can follow the development in the open, or get your own ideas included.

Good suggestion, thanks!
