Hello. For some reason I don't have access to slrpnk.net and feddit.org. I tried to connect from another IP and it worked. My IPv4 is 89.169.34.191. Is it banned on these instances?

@fediverse Have you ever wondered how Lemmy and Mastodon federate?

Given that Lemmy is currently asking for donations, and given the disdain I and many other have for the Lemmy developers' actions, I was wondering if its possible/helpful to donate to PieFed's development instead?

I was looking at Christine Lemmer-Webber's Wikipedia page and had a thought that it should show her Fediverse handle.

I was discussing this on another post and when we're doing internet searches for any kind of information I feel we should be discussing that on the Fediverse or bringing back the info to the Fediverse.

I'm using Piefed.social, obviously, and I'm getting a LOT of notifications. When I click on the bell I have a massive amount of notifications. Is there a way to mass delete notifications or do I have to do it one by one? Any plans for a mass delete of notifications?

This post serves as notice that Lemmy.one will be shutting down in 90 days.

I was just thinking about this, when I'm facing an issue, the first thing I do is go to a search engine and usually there's a Reddit post. But I don't want to ask there. And the only way we're going to build up the info for folks to find us and come here is for us to just start asking here. On the Fediverse. We need to build up that mountain of knowledge that Reddit has and will always have. So we should be championing ANYONE asking questions here. Even if we think it's obvious and we think you can just Google it. There was a time where you literally couldn't just Google it. That was built over time. We need to build that here. So start asking your questions here! Find the answers and then post your answer to your own question. Or let someone do it for you. We need to build the knowledge here to be found. It's not just about people looking for alternatives. We need our knowledge to be more valuable than their knowledge.

Three other family members and myself have at almost the same time and for completely different reasons became interested in or needed to become acquainted with image art of some form.

Is there any way I can convert my PDF into a dark mode version without converting it into images first and invert that image and combine them, instead simply invert every element in the PDF and make it dark (preserving the original text and hyperlinks). appreciate any help!

With asshole mods and asshole users running amok around instances unchecked while playing victim when the favor is returned to them. I find that the fediverse as a whole is just like any other socializing platform. No different, just a different coat of paint and a neat little mechanic in how it operates. But, still the same old shit.

or something of the sort. It's the only explanation I've got...

We misunderstand the strengths of the commons of tools and not knowing how we play to our strengths.

Hi all,

I've been noticing an influx of users with anonomized usernames (ie: fjdasklfpudiosa722104891fdaf20j.srv.us).

I read many comments on how PeerTube isn't sustainable as a YouTube alternative and, while it's certainly true right now, are we sure it will be the same in the near future?

It appears to be an unauthorized provider.

Hello.

On *2008-05-18 15:49:33, the father of the #Fediverse and creator of #ActivityPub, Evan Prodromou, sent the first ever message in what was later called the "Fediverse" social network (*not** Mastodon® social network).

I've encountered a bug, I think, where in piefed it didn't show the whole content of the post.

How is that even possible???

I've been screwing around for a while and still haven't got a jsonld representation of anything. webfinger isn't showing anything either.

Flowpath to have a Lemmy account for complete Newb

Or made any kind of commentary on it? Or are they depending on being deathly silent to reduce the chance of anyone finding out?

This project has been around since July of 2022. It's an alternative interface for Lemmy using phpBB hence «lemmyBB».

I want to replace Google Play Services already on my SSG. Just wondering if there's an app that will push all the notifications...

I moved away from MS Windows a long while back and have ported everything EXCEPT presentations. I still use a friend's laptop just for PowerPoint.

Looking for an alternative to catalogue my physical media (mostly vinyl).

Is there a good OS app to keep track of nutrition and weight? Starting ketogenic diet in 2 weeks. Been there, done that, so I know what I’m doing, but I used to keep track on my iphone, but now that I switched over to GrapheneOS and OpenSuse I’m a little bit lost in the Opensource sea.

Hi! It’s me as usual.

Recently I quit Strava and started using OsmAnd to do my routing and also recording of bike trips.

I don't know how long or well it'll work, but so far I was able to evade the initial "no URL shortener" Reddit filtering with it.

The GenP subreddit got banned on Reddit. We can only take a guess as to why(I seriously don't know, please let me know if you do).

Hi all, I wanted to query what others are doing with their open source projects on codeberg.

Another big month.

Hello

There is a pull request which adds a new setting show_downvotes with these settings: - Show (current behaviour) - Hide (all downvotes hidden in ui) - ShowForOthers (only downvotes on other user's posts are visible)

I’ve been exploring MariaDB 11.8’s new vector search capabilities for building AI-driven applications, particularly with local LLMs for retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) of fully private data that never leaves the computer. I’m curious about how others in the community are leveraging these features in their projects.

Just realised this, most mastodon users who have had experience with groups think they are just bots that auto-boost any posts they are mentioned in.

We’re conducting a UX research study to explore what a truly ethical, open, and human-centered social platform could look like. Your input is important to us!
