I can do but I thought that was for giving established communities a bit of love.

8·1 year agoI’ve just asked. There is a FOSS but not federated version.

6·1 year agoThere are lists of bots that instance Admins can block for a range of reasons.
Anything online can be scraped but big firms might run into regulatory trouble if they are caught randomly scraping sites without consent. At the moment, the big social media apps have a tonne of content to train on in tightly controlled conditions, so they don’t really need to go into the wild, yet. However, we need to be vigilant, block them and make a fuss if we catch them at it.

31·1 year agoThat’s the bit that made me laugh: “nothing to see here, we’ve been doing this for a while. What, you didn’t know? Not our fault you are unobservant.”

11·1 year agoAs far as I can tell this is a desktop plugin. On mobile it only brings across the plain text.

31·1 year agoI use Obsidian with Zettel Notes on my phone to access and edit the MD files in Obsidian, as it is much faster for dashing off a quick note. ZN also has tools that allow you to save a web page or selection as MD which is very handy indeed.

2·1 year agoThanks, didn’t realise some were unlimited. I’ve only just moved to peertube.wtf and I’ll stay there for now. Any sign of pixelfed.wtf?
I’ll see how Tumblr federation goes as I do fancy trying to find ways to take advantage of their storage capacity. However, well see…

11·1 year agoNow that is Interesting.
I had some thoughts about getting public domain short films into the Fediverse but you’d rapidly exhaust the allowance on most instances. However, this might just be the ticket. Time to brush off my Tumblr password…
Maybe PeerTube can already do that, haven’t played with it enough to know.
You’d think Peertube would be able to.
We should be fine, just working through it all now.
Yeah, I added that footer to the Lobster.rs post:
Cheers.
Well I’m an idiot too then as I’m already subbed to that community.
However, yes, that’s a perfect companion to the Web Revival community.
!digitalgardens@lemmy.blahaj.zone seems kind of relevant. I do not mod it for transparency.
Thanks but I can’t find it either through the link or over on LBZ.
As much as I like seeing bad ginormous corporate sites burn I am very glad you are not having that in the community, I nigh-on guarantee the negativity that would generate and the outrage would outshout any constructive post about building something. Destruction and watching the world burn is easier than building something nice in its place.
Exactly, it would change the tone of the community for the worst.


















Oh indeed, we’re part of the larger !buyeuropean@feddit.uk movement, unfortunately, post-Brexit it will cost us more.
And we support FOSS from anywhere.
Yeah, you do want to reduce the air miles and your carbon footprint.
