Bc pwn libs.

And it'll happen again if given a quarter of a chance. Get voting!

Do as you will but if there is a problem, we may want to actually address said problem at some point.

No bc it's not "him", or at least not "just" him, that is the problem. It's like, the system, man.

Thank you for confirming my bias that both sides are indeed the same - I will now proceed accordingly. 😜

/s btw, and damn I wish this was funny. As it is, it feels all too real...😔

Absolutely. Plus the keyboard shortcuts are just outstanding - e.g. shift-M takes you to the middle of the screen - and you can even programmatically do things like make changes to every other line within the range 100-1000 but nowhere else, and even then restrict the changes to only those matching a pattern.

And it is installed on most every machine in the world - even Windows is putting bash onto things these days (I forget if that is still optional, admittedly I haven't touched Windows in nearly a decade:-P) - and has been since virtually the dawn of computing, certainly long before the modern age. :-D I've used ssh on a fucking blackberry and edited files with vim before smartphones existed!

It is, however, notably hard to learn to use, I grant that:-).

Edit: I have no idea what this is from, but somehow a ginormous flag-painted truck pooping out another, still giant flag-painted SUV that then proceeds to make a mess and what looks like endangering a child in a desert town, possibly of middle eastern origin, seems VERY American to me. Though I apologize for the appalling lack of bacon and guns, which I will henceforth rectify with this actually real picture:

Ah, thank you. I'm not 100% certain that's entirely a positive, but indeed it makes sense why e.g. Tesseract on dubvee.org would want to eye using that, when it comes out.

Whereas Mbin provides more cross-platform compatibility with Mastodon, and PieFed with other similar integrations, e.g. PixelFed and upcoming Loops underneath that.

That's so odd - here my own comment immediately got displayed as having 2 vote counts. IMMEDIATELY. Other times when I post that doesn't happen, and still other times I see my replies from minutes, hours, and days older but still with =1 vote count. It seems random?

iirc, the way it is now, every action e.g. vote counts as a single event, and is sent out across the Fediverse at a rate limited to one event per second. In 0.19.6 there was chatter about expanding the implementation of the ActivityPub protocol to allow parallel sending of activities. It could cause mayhem, or perhaps be only optional? https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4623

So what will make Sublinks better than e.g. PieFed? Or Mbin for that matter? All 3 of these I thought used Python rather than Rust, as Lemmy does.

Oh that's neat! Can I see the downvotes on a mobile? Long press or ... doesn't seem to do anything and I'm out of ideas to try.

The difference between PieFed's approach and Lemmy's, especially after the upcoming 0.19.6, is that Lemmy seems to catch up eventually, whereas PieFed never will no matter how much time passes - is that correct?

So if what is desired is a "search for existing post", that function would go better into the search box, while if what is desired is "import existing post", yet that is impossible then perhaps simply not offer that rather than confuse people by offering a halfway measure, thereby leaving only the "find non-existing post", which now that I think about it, especially since it needs an external URL to trigger it, is that really even something that anyone would want? i.e. if the goal is to "view" it, and someone must go to Lemmy in order to do so, then so be it (it is the same on smaller, newer Lemmy instances too), but since it cannot be imported (properly/fully), then don't? Well, it's a thought anyway!:-)

I see nothing wrong with that plan.:-)
