Thanks a lot, exactly what I thought was missing (without taking the time to implement it myself). Will switch to experimental/git/unstable as soon as I’m back home.

Hello! (hey, you're the boykisser person. I find that meme quite funny, even if I prefer the marekisser fork (that is next to the small boykisser))
Anyway, may I ask for my pixel placement? If that help, I'm the only user on my instance.
The thing is, we have our own, big template that cover all our arts, and we would like to put firefox on it. But the colors looks slighty different, cause the original image color doesn’t match exactly the color of the canvas. (But I can just change the image so it looks the same on our template and your reference when displayed in Canvas). For now, it’s removed from the template to avoid conflict.
Hello. Seems like the pony faction really like it. But there is a problem: We use a custom system for determining how to match canvas’s pixel with the source image, and it looks different than what it looks on your side.
Do you want to review ours? It’s here. If you want to change it, feel free to tell me, I’ll relay the info.
Edit: we deleted it waiting for a response, see here: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1136699394037657791/1137306327799058492/Sans_titre.png?width=69&height=74
I know the one who did this. He thought it was C#.
It is possible to deploy a lemmy server via a NixOS option. It's under services.lemmy, see https://search.nixos.org/options?channel=unstable&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=lemmy
You could always try to improve the packaging (there is an issue I had, but a ticket was already open and should be fixed at worst in the next version of lemmy, which was released a few days ago if I'm right)
Of course, everything that make NixOS server hosting will making hosting lemmy with nixos easier, but most of the trouble I had with setting up my server a few years ago was understanding how to configure and run the DNS server on it.
Usually, maintaining a server doesn't take much time once set-up. I personally use NixOS to manage my server, but it's very complicated, and I would not recommend it to a non-developer. However, there is tools/OS called YUNoHost, that is able automatically set up a bunch of services including lemmy and mastodon.
They also provide a free third level domain name (or can use your own, but do it before installing Mastodon or Lemmy, as it'll break federatio.), but you'll need to provide a server. You can rent one (I use an OVH VPS), but you may also just use a spare computer at home, or buy a cheap one (Everything that isn't a slow HDD should work well). I'm unsure about what capacity you need to plan for storage thought.
You should also probably make sure your ISP provide a static IP (that may disabled by default) and that they allow to configure port forwarding (can be found in the router settings usually).
Also, don't forget to set up an automatic backup system. YUNoHost probably recommend something in that matter.
I indeed find said NEW algorithm to be more diverse, thought I prefer the hot view (or at least I would if it were more diverse).
Well... I can cite a few laws. First, the part that protect DRM, second, the law that require search engines to make contract to quote article, third, the interest in policing private communication, and last, a project that isn’t really advanced to infringe net neutrality.
I doubt a US citizen will be shocked about them. But they are likely to dislike them.
(but I tend to see the greener side of "for 1 bad things, 2 good things come next")
Matrix, what seems to be the most ovious replacement to Discord, is an incredible piece of software from a technical point of view. It have Conflict-free Replicated Datatype, which give an hard guarantee that no message will be skipped over and old message will also be fetched. Something that ActivityPub doesn't permit, and is quite a problem with Mastodon at times (much less on lemmy, given you follow communities, and so everything on these communities will be synced, thought not backfilling)
That’s actually a pretty good idea, thought It have some defect, in particular, each ActivityPub server have a limited view of the whole network. While it is usefull for avoiding abuse, it also have the downside that you can’t search for the whole thing that’s published on a platform.
But that could be solved with what is called backfilling (that Matrix does incredibly well). Sepia search (for Peertube) also does this.
Mixing ActivityPub with backfilling would be a really good idea. You can share metadata of ressources, have multiple instance, admin could block abusive website, and searching the whole site would be possible.
Maybe I’ll go study what already exist on this side.
(as an aside, Tribler does something similar to that, but only for Torrent and P2P)
