Indie game developer 🇨🇦
Working on some games for game jams in my free time
Admin of programming.dev and frontend developer for sublinks
Account has automation for some scheduled posts
Site: https://ategon.dev/
if you mention a lemmy community in your post the post gets sent to show up in the lemmy community. Comments are automatically federated if you comment on a lemmy post.
lemmy posts are all federated to mastodon though if the servers know about each other
im saying the posts and content are fine, just dont swamp every other type of content with it. Give breathing room for other communities and other people in this community to be able to have things surface. You can still post things hence why you havent gotten any moderation action here past getting your flood of posts removed.
some users can like attribution to reddit a lot of others dont. Not everyone has the same opinion or is the same person
yeah but ideally it wouldnt be. People come here to escape reddit they dont want to be reminded of it. Just warning that if you post with it youre going to get a lot more complaint comments
4 posts were still left up from your batch after I cleaned up some to clean the home instance feeds and them the mods trimmed it down more (from 19 within the same small window of time). Just make sure to spread posts out so theyre not all posted in a chunk (and dont use camelcase for titles or have connections to reddit). This post is more than a day after the other ones so would be fine
that still automatically pulls the content even if its manually reviewed which makes it go out much faster than any people manually making memes would be able to post at
just space things out so youre not doing more than a couple a day here and dont just copy titles and stuff 1 for 1
Just a measure to make sure this stays a human zone and not bots spamming everyones post feeds for all the different communities without any sort of curation
When posting in communities in the instance please follow the automation guidelines (Section 2 and 3 match the most) https://legal.programming.dev/docs/automation-guidelines/
Notably the section that says 75% of recent content should be human created not automatic and accounts with automation should be marked as such
It tends to make each individual post do worse as well when theyre spammed like this at once
edit: Just saying this here for transparency, I removed half of the posts so that theres 9 now instead of 19. Leaving the rest this time but if theres more feed spam I would be reducing that to match the guidelines more instead of leaving a bunch like here (mods of the community can determine whether to handle this batch more but this clears up the general instance feeds)
outbound federation was down here for a bit. meme is kinda out of context now since it’s working again lol
The easiest way would be subscribing to the communities you want and then using the subscribed feed instead of the all feed
Some frontends (mostly the apps) have filters you can use to filter content but the main frontend doesn’t currently apart from blocking the communities
An alternate thing to do could be to use the local feed in the instance that primarily has the content you want. Isnt doable for all types of content since not everything has a topic based instance for it and would require having a new account if you want to interact but theres things such as mander.xyz for science, programming.dev for programming/hardware/etc. topics, etc.
Programming Languages
Its semi broken currently and also functions on a whitelist with this community not being on the whitelist
The links to the other posts show up below in a cross-posted to section so you can still access it if you want. The limitation on it needing to be the same page comes from this handling happening on the frontend instead of the backend. Ideally imo backend should handle it like how it handles the cross-posts displayed when looking at the post itself
On lemmy-ui if both posts are both “visible” in the feed they will be compacted into one post if they share the same link meaning there wont be a duplicate post (unless you paginate and theyre on different pages)
Some other frontends such as sync dont do this though but they really should
any fediverse account will work. Itll allow you to log in when it opens
Thanks everyone who volunteered, going to reach out to some people soon (will be prioritizing people with programming.dev accounts)
edit: modded adr1an and dwraf to start off since I like to start communities with two mods. They can choose what they want to do past that. Ill be the primary mod for a bit and then will transfer that to someone in the future
I mainly use linkstack https://linkstack.org/, git repo: https://github.com/LinkStackOrg/LinkStack
Theres an instance for the programming.dev instance if you want an example of how it looks https://me.programming.dev (weve got a space-like theme on it)
Itll have api compatibility on release so that will work then with all lemmy frontends
Just to let you know. Most of the blocked instances you see for programming.dev (since your account is here) aren’t forums you would normally interact with but are various ones on the microblog side that cause issues (for hate speech, spam bots that have seo spam posted in various threads, cp, etc.). For forums running lemmy and piefed the amount is very low.
