  • I always like to promote cool stuff, and your stuff is so freaking cool:-).

    Good point about it not working natively inside Beehaw but I just wanted to clarify for anyone reading that even so, they can still click the link https://tesseract.dubvee.org/c/loops@midwest.social and see the loops videos in action - they can’t comment or vote, either on the Lemmy post or for the Loops video, but for read-only mode it works very well.

    I don’t have a Loops account myself so haven’t compared the experiences for that vs. Tesseract but regardless it’s kinda neat to be able to do something like sort that community by Top Week or something and then go through the videos one by one, reading comments if desired also.








  • Well, I am not saying that the scenario is a perfect match, just that it reminded me of that:-).

    Though to answer your question, if Reddit were all AI slop whereas we were not, then they would be foolish to not exploit (for moar profitz) the source of legitimately true info that could be useful to answer people’s questions, e.g. on topics such as whether and how to use Arch Linux btw. :-P




  • It’s somewhat funny how most Lemmy mods seem to discuss things on Discord or Matrix, rather than Lemmy (based on the chatter, though I am not a mod here so what do I know, really?).

    Anyway the article itself is awesome news, though odd that accepting the cookie policy took almost a minute, and a bunch of stuff does not render well in my Firefox on Android web browser (switching to Landscape rather than Portrait helped). I also found the table layout to be highly confusing - does every one of those projects use ngi@video.ngi.eu, bc that’s normally what those lack of border lines would mean, or does only NGI Zero Commons Fund use it? Either way the meaning isn’t clear at all, but there are so many problems with that site that it could just be another html rendering mistake.




  • I find it the height of irony that you have submitted this duplicate post to both of these “c/Fediverse” communities:-). This is the very type of thing that is going to confuse people. Like “why is there a @CyberTailor@beehaw.org, a @CyberTailor@Lemmy.World, a @CyberTailor@lemmynsfw.com and others, but they might be the same person - and yet they might not - and then some of them post to !Fediverse@lemmy.world, while others may post to !Fediverse@lemmy.ml - so like users then, are those also the same person? or community or whatever? Or are they always different ones, and if communities are always different, then why aren’t the users always different too?”

    Face it, the experience on Lemmy.World is close to that of the centralized Reddit, but everywhere else it is not even close. e.g. my post here has 193 upvotes (and 2 downvotes), while the original says 186, but here it only has 98, and here it has none, nor any comments either.

    We are a loose federation of instances - we are virtually nothing like any email system that I have ever used, where various portions of the same message show up - or not - depending on which email system you try to access the same message from (afaik, that’s not even a thing - you have the sender and the recipient and that’s it?). The reason people struggle to understand the email analogy, imho, is bc it doesn’t work, and we should go back to the loose federation of instances idea bc that’s what we truly are.
