Yay! The megathread is here! And a wiki!

[-] eya@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 3 weeks ago

very wiki

[-] P4ulin_Kbana@lemmy.eco.br 14 points 3 weeks ago

Contains pictures generated by AI… ☹️

Still worth it!

It would have been cool to involve the community by doing some kind of art contest. (Not saying I would participate, I just like the idea.)

[-] Flatworm7591@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 3 weeks ago

I actually love this idea. Do you mind if I run with it, or would you prefer to make a post about it yourself?

[-] crimeschneck@feddit.nl 5 points 3 weeks ago

Go ahead, I don't mind. I'm glad you like my idea.

[-] Flatworm7591@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago

Awesome, have made a post. https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/30475184

[-] MonkCanatella@sh.itjust.works 13 points 3 weeks ago

Great. I support dbzer0 over the reddit bootlickers any day of the week.

[-] Quacksalber@sh.itjust.works 12 points 3 weeks ago

Is the megathread outdated? It has entries that both don't work anymore and were already removed in earlier versions.

[-] user@lemmy.one 11 points 3 weeks ago

I use fmhy wiki for that reason.

I've just started going through it to make any necessary updates since it was originally ported over from the rentry version a few months ago. It will likely take me a couple of days to finish updates. But we would ideally like our members to help out with keeping it up-to-date after that with any breaking changes.

Edit: I've updated all the megathread wiki pages now to bring them up to date with the current rentry version. But we can expect some divergence from this point on as our members make edits.

I clicked on this thinking it was some other version of the wiki, only to find it's the version I already have bookmarked. Definitely a wiki I have found useful over the short time I've been using it.

The Megathread is a godsend from the god who took pirates as his favourite creation: The Flying Spaghetti Monster!

Now that I've said that, it actually makes a lot of sense, so... R'Amen. lol

[-] hexagonwin@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 3 weeks ago

Is the old rentry.co megathread being deprecated?

[-] Flatworm7591@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 3 weeks ago

Yes it's being deprecated on Lemmy c/piracy, and we would ideally like our members to help out with keeping the Community Edition up-to-date with any breaking changes. TBH the rentry version is very Reddit-focused and there is no direct community involvement with it from the Lemmy side, which is one of the reasons for the change.
