It's not asking for your password, it just needs you to tell it your username and server so it can send you a magic link. It's technically logging in, but it needs to know who you are so you can press the button (and use the chat).
This is how this kind of event always works on the Fediverse. It's not putting your account at risk and I don't really see the problem.
It did occur to me that perhaps the site itself had localised it. That would be odd for a science site given that science is usually done in metric, but as the New Scientist is pop sci they might have thought it would help grow US readership.
Was it really difficult?
Assuming this is referring to my comment about making life difficult, you had to either do the maths or use a conversion tool. You made it (now fixed, thanks) so that half (I expected a higher %age tbh) of the people reading it had to do that.
There's a breaking change in this: Spotify can no longer be used to fetch images (or anything - did it do anything else?)
From the commit message:
Remove the built-in Spotify adapter from Navidrome due to Spotify's change in API usage policy. Since March 9, 2026, all Spotify Development Mode apps require the app owner to have an active Spotify Premium subscription, making it impractical to maintain as a built-in integration.
Deezer is a good built-in replacement for artist images, and it works out-of-box, no need for extra configuration. Users can also use artist-nfo-metadata as the first agent option to override any incorrect images. For those who want Apple Music integration, the new Apple Music plugin is available as a drop-in replacement using the plugin system.
That's 9.1°C, according to the title on the site.
@Innerworld@lemmy.world Did you change the title to have it in Fahrenheit instead? You could have just added the conversion so it had both, instead of making life difficult for the majority of the world that works in Celsius.
That's beautiful, I might struggle through with a translation app since my French is too woefully inadequate to do it myself.
No, they used female as an adjective when describing their friend. I agree it's unpleasant when people talk about "females" but that's not what happened here.
No, I never got to a happy place with this feature. I was trying to parse the wikitext (the markup language used for MediaWiki) but it's a hairy beast so I thought about parsing the output html instead. Then the site started being really unreliable and I put the transcriptions on the back burner.
You mean because businesses don't pay VAT? In that case it makes sense to not include it.
It's also for learning English, which is something a large language model is probably the most suitable for. It's not going to be much use teaching music or drama.
Maybe in a week or two, TheButton Redox, once you've had time to make your tweaks and a bit of word to get round.
