Simply replacing all the mods sound like a good way to kill a subreddit, Reddit probably has no way to pick good mods... Mods will need some connection with the topic, and you don't want to pick random users with no experience for large subreddits.
Thanks, I joined Matrix server.
Inderdaad, ze kunnen het nu beter even rustig aan doen met grote uitgaven. De meeste mensen zijn dat gedoe met het vakantiehuis en de vakantie tijdens corona tijd nog niet vergeten. Al moeten we natuurlijk wel een goede indruk blijven maken bij staatsbezoeken van buitenlandse staatshoofden, maar dat kan vast op een efficiëntere manier.
Oh wow, that's a steep rise in stars. Good to see many other developers are also checking out the source code. I personally did pull both the lemmy and lemmy-ui repo, but didn't give them a star yet. Hopefully I can soon contribute something to the project.
In the detail view (so the view that actually shows the content of the post + comments) they are quirt pointless, yes. Reddit also seems to hide them in that view. In the list of posts, we need them to fill the gaps (without them, it would also look weird).
Adding images (like my logo suggestion) for linked websites could just make the overview look a bit more colourful. And could also help users decide if it is worth reading the post.
edit, I see this already works for YouTube. A post that linked to a YouTube video automatically got the thumbnail assigned.
They look a lot like the images boxes that Reddit has, but Reddit often manages to scrap a picture from the linked website. I could understand why instances don't want to do a fetch request to all the content that is posted here, but maybe we could at least fill these with the logo of the source for the most linked websites? That would definitely require a change to the software, though.
They said they just didn't like the amount of moderation work lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works give them. Both these instances allow for joining without an application, and the amount of users that break their rules was just too much for them. They said they would like to revert this decision when they can handle the moderation again, but currently the Lemmy tools for moderation are not so great.
Ik heb het altijd een raar idee gevonden die koninklijke rijtuigen, voor staatsbezoeken misschien wel handig, maar voor privéritten van het koningshuis lijkt me dit veel te duur en veel te opvallend ten opzichte van gewoon een auto gebruiken. En rijzen met limousine zal waarschijnlijk net zo comfortabel zijn (al vallen die ook behoorlijk op). Misschien dat het wel mee helpt ter promotie van de treinen dat het koningshuis ook de trein gebruikt?
That would be better for general posts than posting on the community about the lemmy.world instance, but aren't new users (that mostly come from Reddit) not already used to subreddits? It should not be too hard to figure out how to post in the right community. If not, then maybe we need to help them with finding communities? Here on lemmy.world they should just be able to use the search option.
Hopelijk houden ze zich gewoon aan hun missie om eerlijke chocola te blijven verkopen. Ik denk dat de waarde van het bedrijf hard achteruit zou gaan als er een aantal schandalen ontstaan en deze investeringsmaatschappij lijkt meer te beleggen in bedrijven die zich richten op duurzame en high quality producten, dus hopelijk begrijpen zij dat ook. Maar ik ben het er wel mee eens. dat het er meestal niet beter van wordt.
Apps that autoplay video adds really don't respect people on mobile metered connections. Especially if these videos are 90 seconds long. This is such a greedy addition to an app where you are already paying for a product...
Isn't the official Reddit app also just a third party app that they bought 😅. It really starts to sound like he just tries to say anything that could help divide uninformed users from third party app developers, even if it makes no sense and everybody with some knowledge about Reddits history knows it is a lie.
