"Shitposting" describes the act, not the content. Posting content "that took little to no effort" to produce is just spam. It doesn't matter if a human made it or not.

Still not fully integrated, but it's nice to see broader ActiviyPub adoption beyond "follow a handful of users who opted-in". I never expected Meta to be the company inching towards federation and not bluesky. Makes me wonder if Tumblr will ever follow through with their promises to federate.

edit: To the (sadly predictable) response that "Meta will screw you over in a heartbeat" YES, of COURSE they will, that's why it's GOOD to be able to access Threads content safely and privately from a non-Meta controlled platform.

HA has a "www" folder that by default that is accessible to the network. Anything in /config/www appears at http://yourhassaddress:8123/local, so your images will be at http://homeassistant.local:8123/local/image.jpg

It's to prevent scraping/harvesting by AI: https://www.404media.co/why-404-media-needs-your-email-address/

They do not ask for a phone number.

You are correct and I don't mean to shame but it has been their goal for 7 years now since the redesign in 2018.

While Lemmy is still young we should establish a culture of politely, yet firmly ridiculing the weight of the mothers of users who don't de-clickbait headlines.

Any inconveniences you've noticed with Graphene? For example I've heard tap to pay functionality doesn't work.

Well said, I was thinking maybe the entire reason OPs charisma is -1 is because they're out there trying to convince people to do something instead of just doing their own thing.

Potentially unpopular protip: I've blocked most of the "prolific" posters. My entire feed was becoming repurposed memes from 2015.

I'm happy there are people out there dedicating time to keeping Lemmy "active" but that is not how I want to live my life.

I agree re: Fedora, especially the atomic varieties. I do think Zorin is good at what it is but it has a pretty specific use case.

Also, had no idea you were also in this community. Pleasant surprise.

Had the same thought, it's always nice to encounter a civilized person of distinguished taste and culture out here in the wilds.

Cheers
