Hmm, nog een paar jaar onzekerheid, maar dan zonder maximum prijs. Hopelijk blijkt het ook dit jaar mee te vallen, maar het feit dat het zo vroeg in de zomer alweer zo snel stijgt is niet bepaald een goed teken. We zullen het wel zien en als veel huishoudens in de problemen komen zullen er vast wel weer nieuwe maatregelen genomen worden.

Zelf kijk ik nu naar het vervangen van de ramen door ramen met een hogere isolatiewaarde, maar vooral voor huurders zijn dit soort opties natuurlijk niet mogelijk.

As far as I know, we don't have user based karma here. Only posts and comments get a score. But we really should make sure that the community does not get over-run with a specific type of post. Unless the community is for that specific purpose, of course.

But I can imagine that not every instance would like to host a "share your Kickstarter project" community, as those posts will also show up for the users that like to read all local posts. Here on Lemmy.world that feed would already be a full of stuff you aren't interested in though, but that's my opinion and I also never used r/all or any of the other extremely broad subreddits.

That makes a lot of sense, hosting an instance is definitely not for everyone. But from what @Stoneykins@lemmy.one posted, it seems things like that would be allowed here. But it might be a good idea to bring this up in !lemmyworld@lemmy.world That is the general lemmy.world community, there we can get input from the instance admins.

Well, based on the linked rules, I guess it should be fine here.

You should always follow the rules of the instance, of course. But if you want to do something that is not within the rules of the instance, you can always set up your own instance or find another instance where this is allowed. Even if a community (like a subreddit) on an instance thinks a certain, way, they can't conflict with the instance rules.

Creators would probably have to try sharing things in a way that users would not consider it an add. But those lines would be quite blurry, without any clarification from the instance moderators.

[–] Pekka 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think that for many users, the situation is not that different compared to back on Reddit, even there sharing things as a Creator was accepted, but only in a limited and reasonable way. Often subreddits required you to share some new free assets, and in that post you could then also promote your Patreon or store. But those assets should be high quality and usable, and not low effort or unusable stuff that is just used as an add.

Sharing Kickstarts is probably more difficult, I guess within the right community that would be fine. But except for the few larger kickstarters by the very large Creators, most D&D players would definitely consider those adds.

Getting an error page sometimes when visiting a popular Lemmy instance is normal unfortunately. The popular instances get a lot of traffic, and that is probably what causes this. I have had this happen with Lemmy.world a few times so far.

Even on Reddit this wasn’t that rare. They just have a system in between that hands you a nice error page with a sad looking Snoo and an error message.

PHP lost a lot of popularity yes. But developers still use the major PHP frameworks, those solve a lot of the issues many developers had with PHP. On the StackOverflow survey Laravel was still used by 7.5% of the responses and Symfony by 3.2%.

Currently I’m actually taking over a website that was written with Laravel and rebuilding everything in SvelteKit.

Dit lijkt inderdaad een configuratie issue te zijn. Voor de www. versie wordt er een certificaat gestuurd van een totaal andere website.

[–] Pekka 5 points 2 years ago

This was a great point, yes. The whole blackout can only really have an effect if the users show that it was not "just noise", that they don't want to be treated as addicts that you can just ignore, because they can't just leave.

I always used the official app for Reddit and used new Reddit on pcs, but how can you return to a platform that abuses its partners like this. They way they treated the Apollo developer and now basically insult their users and unpaid moderators, it is almost unbelievable that a company would go this far to upset its users.

There would probably have been less uproar if they just said in an honest way, from next month on we will ban all 3rd party apps, instead of lying about everything, act like you are listing to the community and then not answer anything. There is no way upsetting your users like this can be good for selling the company ...

Generally, it does not matter that much, I'm a feddit.nl user and I can just read your post and comments trough feddit.nl. That's because the servers are federated. You can really interact in the same with users on other instances, just like users on your home instance, as long as the two instances are federated with each other.

At the moment, it is not possible to fully transfer your account to another instance, though. This is on the Lemmy backlog, so that might be added in the future. You can make multiple accounts, but that is of course not so user-friendly.

As far as I know, the only major instance that you won't be able to access from lemmy.world would be beehaw.org. They might federate again with lemmy.world once there are better moderation tools, or when they feel more capable to moderate the high influx of new users.

I think I might try Vorkath on the beta world, my current (group) ironman doesn't have access to this boss yet, but this looks very doable.

The skill really starts to look good, I can't wait until they are ready to add this to the game. It also starts to look more and more like something reasonable for OSRS. The team did an amazing job at making sure the boats don't look weird, and really kept the interactions in the Runescape style.
