De meeste Lemmy servers zitten nog op versie 1.17.4, https://the-federation.info/platform/73 zelfs Lemmy.world en Beehaw. Van 0.18.0 zijn er op dit moment alleen release candidates uit. Dus we moeten denk ik nog even wachten op een stable versie. Maar 0.18.0rc5 werkte al wel aardig en er is nu al rc6 uit.

I agree that we need to focus on actual content. I’m trying to regularly post and engage in communities about things other then Lemmy and Reddit, but it isjust rough to get this started especially for topics that are less popular. You don’t just want to post without response.

I do keep my sorting by subscriptions and just subscribed to a whole bunch of communities. I noticed that for me more than half of all posts seem to come from Beehaw even though they are smaller than Lemmy.ml and Lemmy.world. It is a good idea to look outside the bounds of your instance.

Thanks for all your work. Unfortunately some people can be very demanding to volunteers. I hope you will have a better time working on your other projects and won’t stop enjoying programming because of other people’s actions.

For me it was a nice improvement. I liked the new window snapping feature that allows to you quickly snap an application to half or a quarter of your screen. But honestly there aren’t that many differences compared to my work laptop on Windows 10, I never regretted updating though.

I also used Linux for gaming, most of the time you will be able to get things to work. But sometimes you will have small issues in games and way worse support from the developers.

Great article, I’m currently rebuilding a legacy website with SvelteKit myself and alread had issues with the lack of third party components. Luckily it really is not to hard to write your own components around third party plain html/js implementations.

The $: was quite confusing at the start. But overal working with SvelteKit makes me feel way more productive compared to developing for my previous projects in Angular.

Mostly the great feedback from IDE’s and official product documentation like MDN and the IBM documentation.

I have started to use Copilot and Copilot Chat, but it mostly seems to help with doing easy things much faster, it hasn’t really helped helped with actual problems. Bing chat is sometimes a lot faster though compared to searching the slow IBM documentation website.

It is good to see that many people like Svelte. I have been using SvelteKit for multiple projects now. The Other frameworks and libraries section looked like a mess. How can you compare Electron, NumPy and Cuda...

Most results are not that surprising, I wonder how relevant these surveys will be in the future. I have the feeling I'm using Stack Overflow less and less.

Yea these laws are super difficult in a distributed network and I think that you would not be responsible if you made an attempt to say to the other instances that this data is now deleted. But at the moment, when you delete a message on an instance, it just flips a boolean and says the message is deleted. (mods can purge comments though, so then it is actually deleted).

And you would probably be fine as an individual, but I can see larger Lemmy instances get large enough that these kinds of rules will apply to them. I have seen a few cases where small associations got fined for violating the GDPR, that would be a waste of money that was donated for hosting the instance.

but outside of your own server pretty much nobody will care. Lemmy is federated over multiple jurisdictions, so even with full deletion implemented there’ll almost certainly be instances which will ignore the deletion request - and it will be completely legal for them to do so

Lemmy also seems to federate your matrix_user_id, that is clear personal data. It does not matter how the data gets to the federated server, this is still user data within the scope of the GDPR. It does not matter that that server does not have an agreement with the user, the instance that would ignore a GPDR related deletion request would be in direct violation of the GDPR. Maybe it can do that without consequences, though.

I completely understand that making Lemmy fully GPDR compliant will probably be impossible, however I don't like the approach of "we will not succeed, so we don't make any attempt". Instances should actually delete data when that is requested, or instance hosts can get fined. For now, Lemmy has bigger issues to solve, but eventually they should do at least a best effort attempt to respect user data.

I sometimes use the IntelliJ GUI for working with git stash, I never needed that outside of Java projects. And I use the Github Client to keep track of the git projects on my computer, and see the content of commits. But for everything else, I just use the git CLI tools.

RuneScape is a great second monitor game, the game allows you to be very active when you want to and have time for that, chill semi-afk content when you also want to watch videos' on the side, and even 'click once every five minute' style gameplay. I have a bit over 9000 hours on my ironman.

After Runescape, my second most played game is definitely Minecraft, then Skyrim with about 550 hours, Fallout 4 with 300 hours and everything else is 115 hours or less.

This looks really nice, some friends didn't really like the current design of Lemmy and I think I could convince them to use it through a design like yours. Svelte really is a great tool to quickly get something working. I'm currently rewriting another site in SvelteKit as well.

About CORS / WebSocket. I'm not sure where it will be going with the WebSocket API. The main Lemmy project wants to use the WebSocket API less, as it a high performance impact on instances, and it also often seems to break in the PWA.
