Reactions are common in lots of forums though, gold is just a special reaction.
A special upvote if you will, its not really that deep.

I think he’s referring to how Reddit used to operate on Tencent funding.
Tencent is partially owned by the Chinese government.

instead hunt for FLAC format. it’s lossless.

Any recommendations on where to do this?

As a lifelong adblock user, I recognize your pain.

Yeah, the big subs feel like all the content that gets through is devoid of emotion because that’s what the mods decided to allow that day. God forbid you decide to post something you thought was cool, but something similar was posted 2 years ago so now you’re banned from posting.

fun /s

I’m curious, is SKSE even supported through proton? Not sure why it wouldn’t but still curious.

I like slice.

I think it was a more tongue in cheek reference to the incompetence of the companies and how they will use that data in practice, but I might have read too much into it. Regardless, intentionally clicking the wrong items on captchas shouldn’t cause a crash unless the companies force it to by cutting corners.

FOSS software enables the user of a software to effectively maintain ownership of their own device which is 100% a political thing.

That’s an entirely different domain of politics in my mind, my point was there’s no reason to focus on what divides you from the creator when 9 times out of 10 the software itself is unrelated and contributed to by thousands that all have differing opinions on the same topic.

No need to try and find issues where there aren’t any.

I think that’d be best, basically an entire porn federation completely isolated, we can name it horny jail!

Most things I’ve seen were 18+, if only to skirt by the laws. I haven’t seen much though so I may be completely off, but that would seem a little illegal otherwise.

software is always made for a purpose and the purpose can be indeed (and is) very often linked to political or social cause

Its not though, typically software exists to serve a basic function at its core, and it could be used or contributed to by anyone for any number of things.

Was referring more to people trying to politicize software and push them into political movements they’re unrelated to. Open software is at is core free and as such anyone with any political leaning could use it or contribute to it and no one would know, and no one should care.

I mean ethically its a debatable topic, if I don’t help fix someone’s car and then he crashes it, its not my fault, he shouldn’t have driven it while it was broken.

Same with user generated or AI data, it works 99.9% of the time, but that 0.1% is too dangerous to deploy in a life endangering situation.

Usually its anime girls that are actually older than they appear.

Fun fact, that’s a condition that actually occurred to a girl in real life, she looked 12 and visibly didn’t hit puberty, she was 20.

Its okay to have skimpy or 18+ photos and content, just not for the purpose of porn. Lots of places like that on Reddit too, especially in dark humor accepting areas.

Would be even better if the porn instances started federating, two horny instances federating might make another instance and then that’s how children are made.

I think its the “never raise this subject here again” Comes off as a bit aggressive.

I think a better thing to do would be updates to Lemmy that allow for user customization and then have user styles adjust those customized features, that way its more decentralized and more in the spirit of a federalized community.

I actually would really like something like new Reddit, Lemmy is far too horizontally dense despite wasting tons of space on both sides. I can’t actually tell which comment is the top most either.

Generally its just difficult to discern what exactly I’m seeing.

If I don’t find something soon-ish I’ll probably get deep into making my own restyle script.
