Okay, but can you let me know what it means after you get back?

Added .webm support to the image viewer and image peek

This, along with the other image viewer fixes is a massive quality of life upgrade! ๐Ÿ™Œ

From what my friend told me about Saudi Arabia, they have a similar mindset. With their extreme puritanical outlet, meeting women is near impossible. Being a top isn't considered being gay, but being a bottom is considered disgraceful.

The mental gymnastics, my god.

Wait, if it's double-blind, wouldn't the scientists be unaware of whether he got a placebo or the real drug? Although I suppose this could be after the study has concluded. I would bet that in real studies they record the side effects reported before checking to see if it was the placebo or not!

Great idea! Here's mine:

For a second I was worried this was a phallic thing, thanks for clarifying

Would it be possible to have a quick settings button to hide (not just blur) all NSFW posts in the feed?

In normal browsing I like having the blurred NSFW images available in the feed, but whenever I'm in a public space, I'm always terrified I'll accidentally open one of the NSFW images. This is compounded by the fact that the last post at the end of a feed is extra-clickable because of the way feed loading works. If I'm scrolling down and the feed needs to load more, Sync will often count that interaction as a click on the last item in the feed.

Thanks!

I have fond memories of whiling away many hours discovering fascinating new sites on del.icio.us. A fediverse reinterpretation sounds interesting!

I see an "Ultra preview" tag next to some posts, but I have no idea what this feature is. Does anybody know?

I want to filter out references to the website formerly known as Twitter, but I'm not sure how the content filter "X" will work.

I'm assuming an 'X' without spaces will also filter out Xylophone, but what about "X "? Will I need to add the double quotes? What about capitalization?

Hey folks. I've been running a media and torrenting server off an Odroid HC2 running OpenMediaVault 6 on Armbian. It's been doing pretty great, and I have it set to run docker containers for qBittorrent, ProtonVPN, the *arrs, etc.

The problem I'm running into is that the HC2 has an arm32 CPU that is not supported by most apps, so I'm stuck running old images. I want to upgrade to a newer mini PC/SBC that is more future-friendly. I'd like it to be capable of running Plex streaming at 4K, Radarr/Sonarr/Prowlarr, etc. as well as other apps as docker containers. I might repurpose the HC2 to just run self-hosted NextDNS.

Here are my questions:

  1. What mini PCs or SBCs would you recommend? I'm leaning strongly towards a mini PC over an SBC because it would be more powerful, I don't need specialized software for it, recovery and backups are much easier, etc. I'm not too concerned about power usage unless it's extravagant.
  2. Which OS would you recommend as a media server?
  3. What is the simplest way to transfer my server over with minimal fuss? I use private trackers, so I'll have to very carefully stand up the new server and transfer over torrents, etc. in one fell swoop. I'm guessing I should just be able to install the apps and then transfer over the configurations and media files and change permissions, etc.
  4. Anything else I need to consider?

Thanks!

Since Lemmy doesn't have a lot of content yet, I primarily browse all. Since there are a lot of active communities in all that I'm not interested in (different language/NSFW, etc), it would be really handy to be able to block them from the ellipsis menu. Right now you have to go I to the community and find the block option there. Similarly for users.

Well said! A high barrier to entry, and a low barrier to exit working as intended. Let's enjoy the good times while they last.
