Would that make them Lemmigrants?

Well of course they do. They want to turn an every-few-years OS purchase into a monthly subscription fee, like they did with O365. And eventually they’ll drop the ability to install apps except through their store (under the guise of providing “safety” from malicious apps), so that they can collect a commission on the third party software sales market as well.

“As young as 5”? I’d like to see the evidence for that.

In theory one of the big instances like lemmy.world or lemmy.ml should be indexed and searchable using the site: tag, and their local caches of communities originating on other instances should be included. It might mean that Google returns multiple duplicate pages (one for each instance indexed) however, unless Google takes steps to reduce duplication. Time will tell I guess.

Oh my. I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAQ-VZUdiqg

The Star Wars Christmas Special TV show had an audio-only equivalent. I regret learning that today.

You know what they say about IOT: The S stands for Security.

He’s moving to Belarus, which may as well be the same thing.

There’s a constant stream of live coverage in the /r/worldnews Ukraine war megathread, but otherwise yeah it’s surprisingly quiet.

Maybe have the bot pick one of the similar magazines like world, news, and worldnews for each crosspost instead of posting to all of them? Since there are so many new communities a lot of us have subscribed to all of them for now while we try to decide which fits our needs best. By spamming into every magazine/community that is similar to the Reddit sub you’re pulling from, you’re creating a lot of duplicates in our feeds. Otherwise I welcome seeing more content here, and applaud your efforts!

I am hopeful that the lack of “karma” feedback to posters in Lemmy/Kbin will dampen the farming that goes on over at Reddit, and that posts are about contributing ideas or whatever content is expected in order to be a part of the community, rather than trying to get “upvotes.” Granted, that’s a huge driver of activity on Reddit and helped them grow to the size it is, but it’s also why there’s so much low-effort content there these days.

Looks pretty good! Does it support Dark Mode yet?

Wait, I found it - Once you click on the user there’s a Send Message icon in the right-hand panel:

Instead of deleting the comments try editing them to some standard text, then go back and edit them all again to some slightly different boilerplate, etc. etc. I wonder if that might overwhelm their saved cache of your comments…

Nope. Then they just restore the comment and it lists the author as [deleted].

Agreed. And if it had a proper (customizable) mobile app, I wouldn’t need a second Lemmy account either!

I wonder if spoofed Unicode text is also being filtered…
