Lemmy Support

I am thinking more relating to how on Reddit you can "message the mods"; is there any function like this on Lemmy, or do I have to message mods individually?

Whenever I try and upload an image, it does not work.

Somebody reminded me recently that if you resize the image and make the file size smaller, it will work.

I'm wondering if anybody knows what the actual file size is as a maximum that I can upload?

Rather than just wing it, I would like to create a script that will create the appropriate file size.

I don't want to be greedy and use up heaps of resources, but I'd like to find what the happy balance is and make sure it works within the limits of the system.

Thank you so much.

I recently blocked X instance, as I didn't like the users and content from there.

But to my surprise, X instance was still able to send me a comment?

Is this a bug? What can I do?

I know the issue has been answered before, but does anyone know if there exists some kind of work-around until the actual disable-image-upload is implemented in Lemmy?

One thing I liked (and sometimes disliked) about Reddit was that my feed was a mix of posts in communities I'd joined and a few suggestions of posts from subs The Algorithm™ thought I might like.

On Lemmy I'm realizing I'm starting to fall into a bit of an echo chamber situation because I basically only see stuff I'm already a member of, unless I explicitly go to All or scroll the list of communities.

Are there less involved (lazy) ways of discovering new stuff and broadening my horizons a bit?

New Lemmy admin here. I found the Theming Guide in the Lemmy docs, but it jumps directly to the 'After a theme is added' section without explaining how to add or create themes. I've searched for examples but couldn't find any configuration that includes these details.

I found hanubeki-lemmy-themes, which actually contains some good themes. However, when I copied the 5 folder to my extra_theme folder, nothing happened. Can someone guide me on how to add these themes to my instance?

Update: You should put all your css file in the extra_themes folder, each .css is a theme. For hanubeki-lemmy-themes I put all the dist and src files in extra_themes and it works. I already done this before, but my browser was [caching lemmy-ui static files for 24 hours], so when I delete the cache it just works.

Thank you Sami, it was a cash problem, I updated the post with more details

I am generally pro-Israeli, that's fine if you disagree - it's clear most of Lemmy are anti-Israel, again that's fine. I respectfully voiced my opinions on [email protected], I did not break any of the community rules. My comments were removed and I was served a 30 day ban. Shameful suppression of speech.

One of their rules: "Be respectful, especially when disagreeing. Everyone should feel welcome here."

Yeah except when you don't align with the mods views??

Feels like this place is no better than Reddit, in fact the power tripping mods on here may actually be worse.

Hi, I am new to Lemmy and I just need help with something kinda QoL-ish. Is it possible to look at a post on the homepage IE http://lemmy.ca, and block the community it is coming from?

I don't want to have to manually click on the community and go to its page every time I want to block one. Is there like an extension or a specific UI mode that lets you do this? Thanks!

From what I understand, KBin can import a Lemmy Community as a Magazine. Is the inverse also possible? Can I subscribe to a KBin magazine in Lemmy?

I want to subscribe to @[email protected], but [email protected] returns no search results on https://lemmy.world/ .

It's very difficult to want to keep coming back to lemmy with so many communities I'm not interested being on my homepage. I want to be able to discover new communities and posts but have the ability to block certain communities I never want to see
