Amazing! This looks gorgeous!

The screenshots probably shouldn’t include copyrighted movies though, so it doesn’t get taken down from GitHub. You can replace them with Blender Studio projects https://studio.blender.org/films/

(Also there’s a small typo it says steam instead of stream on GitHub)

I really wish bots were forced to provide their github and/or who is running the bot. Its really annoying have a lot of content posted by bots woth no way to report errors. This bot posts soo much and always has that tiny “summary” of the posts. Can’t it at least use the auto tldr bot code to give decent summaries?

Still sucks you will need a phone number to use it though. Hopefully they adopt meshnet type technology similar to https://berty.tech so people can communicate even when the internet is shut off across all platforms with end to end encryption

I’m sure this has nothing to do with their efforts to unionize /s

Lemmy has had such a crazy month and a half. Insane growth, XSS injections, DDOS attacks, admin takeover, domain name seizures. What a wild ride

Their political leaders are billionaires, the workers don’t own any means of production, there’s terrible workers rights, etc.

The risk of long covid is cumulative so every infection increases your chance. But also just having covid increases your risk of heart attacks and strokes for up to a year https://nyulangone.org/...

It’s way easier to get people to move by just showing screenshots or a link to a lemmy instance

Have you been on join-lemmy.org? No one is hearing about lemmy for the first time and deciding to join based off of it. The entire website is all tech speak, and literal lorem ipsum with zero screenshots that actually show off the platform, and zero screenshots of any of the apps (which is how a ton of people browse reddit)

90% of redditors who go there will be confused and never go back. It says “a link aggregator for the fediverse” in big which, 99% of people will just be confused because whats a link aggregator? And for most people, whats “the fediverse”? Join a server? Run a server? What?

Then it says “Lemmy is a selfhosted social link aggregation and discussion platform” people know what some of those words are but definitely not in that order.

Then its screenshots of some code on github? Then its more code saying lemmy is open source?

Then it says “blazing fast” with a screemshot of lorem ispum

Then a bunch if paragraphs and then a small screenshot of more lorem ipsum with teeny tiny vote buttons and more tech words
