I’ve never seen an ad on the youtube app, it’s just a bug. ___

Yes. I use a service so I pay for the service. I use software frameworks so I donate to their patreons.

Oh good reminder to delete my posts before then

Yes but my point is that 6 pages of PRs were created within 10 days of the repo being launched which was accomplished by chucking a lot of bodies at the project.

Oh good to know!

They probably could use more manpower to some extent but we’re all forgetting The Mythical Man-Month; just chucking more bodies at a software project doesn’t necessarily speed it up any more than nine women can have a baby in one month.

Sure, but look at the rapid progress llama.cpp made in the past 3 months, especially in the 1-2 weeks after its launch

btw, my instance just linked to this community so I don’t see your comment (which is why this is a root level comment)

haha

I thought the whole point of federation was that everything from every federated instance was connected and I only need one account to see every part of it.

No. If an instance hosts toxic communities then your instance can choose to defederate from it. You don’t have to wait for the centralized authority to ban them. It’s about being able to choose your admins and form a web of “good” communities.

While true, beehaw hosts some of the largest communities so it’s still a loss (temporarily). As long as they find mods within a week things will be fine.

Lemmy in the last few days is absolutely tiny compared to a site like reddit, and already instances are struggling to cope.

While this is true, 5 days ago lemmy.ml, the biggest instance, was on a 67 EUR server which is very small. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36270094

Posts like this: https://lemm.ee/post/58472 suggest it is a problem

This is a scaling problem (having more users means you need more mods) but I disagree with how they handled it and it isn’t a money related thing. My thoughts on this are in an older post when this was first announced https://partizle.com/comment/64178

Why should a handful of “lucky” servers have to pay all the hosting costs?

My initial idea is to use the something awful model of paying a one time fee to register an acount. The problem is that people would just sign up on another instance that doesn’t charge a fee but still add load to the lucky instance. Another approach could be to participate in communities on one of those lucky servers then you need to pay a one time fee to that server (comments would need to be removed by a bot if they’re not made by an approved user). I’m not saying that’s perfect, but it’s an idea. Adsense is another idea.

Here’s an idea: in apollo you swipe left on a comment to collapse the current commet’s thread, this would be nice too.

The admins are probably modding the communities because they probably created them but the proper solution should be to find mods, not just defederate

That’s fair, buuuuut why are the admins moderating comments? Why shouldn’t the moderators mod their communities and report problematic users to admins so those users can be blocked.

DJI is a chinese company and it is easier for them to just publish an apk rather than submit to all app stores

Maybe search results should link to archives rather than live urls

Kbin and lemmy are compatible but different projects

I don’t think it’s a problem. If you weren’t using activity pub and just something like reddit then if you were reddit (the sysadmin) you’d also deal with having to scale if your community gets really popular

Stuff that gets linked to also has the same problem

Oh it’s built with expo, nice!
