You can't ignore that Max was given a free pitstop. Would Max have won even if he hadn't? Maybe. But after he was given the free pitstop, it was a sure thing that he was going to be in the top 3 ahead of George and Lando.

Reddit is removing the 1000 submission/comments limit on user profiles. Profiles will soon show all submissions/comments from the day the account was created.

Reddit is providing a method to delete all content by emailing redditdatarequests@reddit.com or via their form https://support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360001370251

The submission link here on Lemmy takes you directly to a Reddit's admin submission that talks about the change.

I disagree with your statement about not seeing this type of behaviour on Reddit and it appearing civil and intellectual comparison.

It looks like there are many submissions now being downvoted across many subs.

Before the API change I never really noticed mass submissions with zero votes. Now i see multiple zero vote submissions daily and I browse Reddit for about 20 minutes a day. My feed is set to sort by hot, so I don't see many submissions that have just been created.

Is this a sign of the type of people using Reddit these days, a lack of moderation, or could there be some bots floating mass downvoting?

Surprised the title didn't say, "Apple slammed for ear pods that are designed to die".

Gluing components together so it's not easy/impossible to repair is different to 'designing to die'. In my opinion designed to die suggests the ear pods will die prematurely due to intentional design decisions. Gluing components together just means that when the ear pods die, then they cannot be brought back to life and you have to replace them.

I wish he didn't ramble as much as he does. Most of his videos could be a quarter of the length.

What happens when you share a link to an image? Does Lemmy just save the link or does it make a copy of the image?

Is there a Lemmy version of UI battles?

I've recently driven a brand new 2023/2024 Maxus T90EV. It had 15 miles on the clock when I drove it. These are the problems I experienced with it and these aren't even touching on my preferences like I thought the seats were uncomfortable, or that regenerative braking is quite aggressive and can't be changed. So I doubt China EVs are going to take over, not in 2024 at least.

  • Auto lights didn't work
  • Auto wipers didn't work
  • Intermittent wipers didn't work
  • Rear view camera was really poor quality
  • Infotainment system crashed, where I had to walk away from the vehicle with it still in its crashed state. At some point it finally turned off and worked again on the next drive
  • Bluetooth audio kept crashing
  • Infotainment system is really basic
  • Shudders when driving on the factory set speed limiter
  • No driving aids like cruise control or driver defined speed limiter

I've experienced it today where the app doesn't show the comment if I click one of my own comments or the reply to it. It shows the parent comment and other comments in the submission.

I've checked the modlog for the community and neither comment has been removed, so it looks like it's a bug with the app?

Is there such a thing as shadow banning submissions, comments, or users on Lemmy?

I'm having trouble seeing a couple of comments that I know were there at some points, one of them is my own and I haven't deleted it. So it got me wondering, is shadow banning a thing here.

I don't mind reposts when there is discussion on the reposts. When there is zero discussion, which is what's happening with the Reddit copy paste on Lemmy then it's just clutter.

If I sort by new, most of the submissions are reposts with zero votes and zero comments. If I sort by activity/hot then I see days old submissions. ... how engaging. I'd prefer to engage with new content but I'm not prepared to look over ~twenty submissions to only find one or two real submissions.

I've noticed we have bots copy pasting Reddit submissions. Is there a method to block them all?

I assume they mean good by 'generating' content in communities, but I don't see a reason why anyone would comment on them since the OP is on Reddit and will never read them.

I know I can block each individual account as I come across them but I'd just prefer to block them all so I don't see their content at all.

They appear to do the nice thing by adding a line in the submissions about it being an automated submission. Is there a filter for words/phrase found in the body of a submission?

To summarise, I2P is similar to Tor, except that every client also serves as a node, and there are no exit nodes, so you can only access data shared by other I2P clients

Is my summary correct?

I think it's too early to comment on the user numbers increasing/decreasing. Let's see what it looks like in 6-12 months time.

I've seen a few posts complaining about Lemmy on Lemmy and Reddit. It's generally the same complaints; so these should be addressed.

I'm interested in looking at newly registered domains for bad actors.

There are services out there that offer zone files for 'all' TLDs but are too expensive for individuals not backed by a company to pick up the bill. I've also found some free lists but they appear to be incomplete.

So I've gone down the route of attempting to obtain zone files or at least newly registered domain lists from TLDs themselves. Obtaining zone files for gTLDs is straight forward with ICANN's CZDS service. But obtaining zone files for ccTLDs appears to be quite interesting. I attempted to Google but couldn't find anything so I've started to email ccTLDs; it already feels like I'm spamming since I'm sending the same email - I've only sent it to 10 TLDs so far. It looks like there are a few hundred ccTLDs.

Is there a better method than emailing each ccTLD and hoping for the best?

I don't understand the love for Telegram.

In the short period of using it I had so much BS come through by scammers/spammers - both as DMs and group messages. I've rarely had that with WhatsApp.

In my eyes WhatsApp is far better than Telegram. And Signal is far greater than WhatsApp. The only thing I wish Signal had was inbuilt GIFs; it's not that much of an issue on mobile but it's a pain on desktop.
