I looked him up.
They mod 726 subreddits.
I don't think he's going outside, he's screaming into a pillow 24/7 in a nest of greasy fast food bags.

Netplan is 100% a solution that didn’t have a problem to begin with
This does not surprise me from a company that, well... * gestures distastefuly at snaps *
You can self-host Newsblur, and the app is available on F-Droid
Or x, which does the same thing, with the same number of keystrokes. But the ZZ keys are closer together
They put it on that Microsoft site called GitHub - Linus is gonna be so pissed!
I've found that Krita is pretty easy to use and does most of the things I would otherwise have to use Photoshop for.
If you can't rollerblade to a public phone to use your bluebox so you can call your granny for free, are you really a phreaker?
Someone has already submitted a PR with the changes the dev recommended. The captcha stuff is in a new db table instead of in-memory at the websocket server.
However, from one of the devs:
One note, is that captchas (and all signup blocking methods) being optional, it still won't prevent people from creating bot-only instances. The only effective way being to block them, or switch to allow-only federation.
Once people discover the lemmy-bots that have been made that can bypass the previous captcha method, it also won't help (unless a new captcha method like the suggested ones above are implemented).
The root of the issue seems to be that they've removed websockets, for the following reasons:
Huge burden to maintain, both on the server and in lemmy-ui. Possible memory leaks. Not scalable.
I can understand them wanting to make their lives a bit easier (see "huge burden to maintain) - Lemmy has exploded recently (see "not scalable") and there are far bigger issues to fix, and an even larger number of bad actors (see "possible memory leaks") who have learned about Lemmy at the same time as everyone else and want to exploit or break it.
The easiest way to make an ignorant person feel special is to identify an "other" for the ignorant person to look down on/blame for their problems.
- Manufacture a scapegoat
- Charismatic speaker blames the scapegoat
- Get power/money
Oldest trick in the oldest of books.
Maybe that's just how you're supposed to play a skelephone
That's too long. Who's your butthole tent piercing guy?
