I’ve never personally had these issues. Sent large files without problem and never had discovery issues.
I’d love to use this but I just mostly don’t use multiple devices at the same time, so I don’t see how the sync would ever happen.
Been using it for a long time, it’s great!
How are you supposed to pronounce it?
I have used KeePass for many, many years and have never run into this. Besides, I usually have a copy of the database on some other device so I’m not too worried
I don’t think this is a problem. If the communities are similar enough, one will eventually win and be the bigger and main one. If they are different enough, they can continue coexisting.
I personally still feel like this brings the communities too close.
the Lemmy devs are very much against merged comments
For good reason perhaps? It merges distinct communities together, making communities less distinct. Different communities can have different moderation and participation standards and norms. Merging them I feel is a bad idea.
We ought to moderate well and do better than elsewhere though. Well, at least I would hope that users would gravitate towards instances that moderate their users better, so we get more civil behavior.
all of computer science is based on the practical
I don’t understand this at all. Computer science is based on theoretical foundations that were developed way before any actual computer existed. This goes back more than 100 years.
We teach students computer science to make them into software engineers.
That’s only true if you studied a very practically-oriented education. Such educations are usually called “Software engineering” rather than “Computer Science”.
As a computer science graduate myself, my university definitely did not try to make me into a software engineer. It was very theoretical, with a clear focus on further research if that was what you wanted to pursue. You could get through the education quite okay and only ever write very little actual code. It was the maths that was the harder part to write.
Computer science is basically the study of software engineering
That’s not at all true if you ask me. Computer science is the study of data and computation, on a theoretical level. Software engineering is not theoretical at all, but very practical.
Searching Prince Andrew doesn’t immediately give you the context and it’s not a pointless question because others (like me) may have the same question and would like to see the answer.
People, nobody deserves being downvoted for asking some simple questions. I too am not familiar with Prince Andrew.
Yea wtf? That seems insanely low. There’s no way they can keep up with all content right? At least they can only be reactionary right, like when reports are made?
Yea okay… Not sure what the point is of not just explaining it clearly 🤔
They don’t actually explain what this is anywhere.
Yea I’m thoroughly confused, what even is this? Is it open source, code anywhere?
It’s weird to talk about the fediverse as a whole having a civility problem. The fediverse is a large and diverse place.
It’s like asking “do bars have a civility problem?”. And like yea, some bars do. Other bars don’t. Depends on the clientele right?
For example, on Feddit.dk we have quite a high standard of behavior and moderation is based on that. Feddit.dk is not a large instance, which probably makes it easier to manage. I would not say that Feddit.dk has a civility problem. Maybe other instances do. But then that’s a problem for those instances to solve.
So I wouldn’t say the fediverse itself has a civility problem. To me, it seems perfectly possible to moderate an instance well and preserve civil behavior. If there is a civility problem, it lies with the specific instance that has that problem and their failure to moderate that behavior.
Perhaps you’re right, but this is what I’m most comfortable with.
The vision (which is also still WIP) right now is a platform that combines the features of Facebook, Twitter and Reddit. Something that can interface with all existing fediverse services and handle all kinds of media (posts, discussions, microblogs, pictures, videos, anything, you name it). Ideally it should also be a place where you can bring your friends list and maybe even have a personal (non-anonymous) user. Imagine something that can replace Facebook, Twitter and Reddit all in one fell swoop. That’s the general idea.
Now, that’s just the idea but a lot of it depends on execution. If you’re truly interested, I’d love to talk more on Matrix to see if there’s some shared alignment. Obviously I have a certain vision for the project so there needs to be some shared understanding of the direction. Technology-wise, the backend is Rust and the (very WIP) frontend is TypeScript/SvelteKit. But non-technical contribution can be valuable too.
How does any of this matter when Trump won the popular vote? You can’t get around the fact that more than 50% of voters voted for Trump.
I totally agree that your political system is fucked, but let’s not fool ourselves into thinking that Trump won because he cheated the system or the election was rigged. Trump won because he convinced people to vote on him, and that’s the real problem.
