Multiplex, an app to watch torrents together. It provides an experience similar to Apple's SharePlay and Amazon's Prime Video Watch Party, except for any torrent instead of a specific streaming service. Thanks to WebRTC, it doesn't require a server to sync playback, and can use a gateway if a viewer can't use BitTorrent. It's written in Go for GNOME; check it out on GitHub https://github.com/pojntfx/multiplex

I’ve tried asking on the Mediawiki Support Desk but haven’t gotten any help.

EDIT: It looks like the issue with images comes from using Short URLs. After uploading the image through the Upload File section I get a 404 error but if I add /index.php?title= to the url I can visit the uploaded files. Not sure how to fix this though

So basically my issue is mediawiki thinks the links to my files are /File:filename.png but they're actually at index.php?title=File:filename.png

After the last post publicly by Naomi Wu being

“Ok for those of you that haven't figured it out I got my wings clipped and they weren't gentle about it- so there's not going to be much posting on social media anymore and only on very specific subjects. I can leave but Kaidi can't so we're just going to follow the new rules and that's that. Nothing personal if I don't like and reply like I used to. I'll be focusing on the store and the occasional video. Thanks for understanding, it was fun while it lasted”

Naomi Wu mentions briefly on her silencing and how she is not nearly as safe as she was before now that it’s obvious to the Chinese government her disappearance won’t cause an uproar of bad press making China look bad.

Communities on different instances about the same topic should have the option to essentially federate so a post on one appears on all of them and opening any of them shows you the comments from all of them. This way when lemmy.world is down its not a big deal because posting to any news community federates to all of the communities instead of barely having people see your post. Federation could be decided by the community mods and the comments can have a little “/c/communityname@instance.name” on it so you know which community the comment was originally posted on.

I use Memmy everday as I'm sure many of you do as well and Memmy has been getting extremely frequent updates yet there is still not an easy way to donate monthly to support the development of Memmy. He has a Buy Me a Coffee account setup here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/gavink but I've never seen it posted anywhere and its not available in the bottom of the settings section of the app which would make sense and be convenient. So I figured I'd make a post about it in case anyone else has also looked for a way to donate. (I found the link at the bottom of the github https://github.com/Memmy-App/memmy)

hopefully recurring donation options are available soon

It will be open source, end to end encrypted using Signal’s double ratchet encryption protocol, and he plans to make it easy for fediverse platforms to integrate it. The beta will release later this month.

He’s also the creator of https://fedidb.org btw

“For 25 years, Window has been quietly changing the security industry with her pioneering work at Apple, Mozilla, Fastly, and Intel, among others.

“She basically revolutionized security for the entire internet with her work [at Microsoft],” Katie Moussouris says.

For years, people have been telling me about Window Snyder, saying she never got the credit she deserved for her work at Microsoft and Apple.

Today, we finally reveal how important she was in enabling encryption by default on Macs, iPhones, and iMessage.”

Showing related threads that use the same link or have a similar title or words in the body of the post would prevent a lot of duplicate threads while also making it more convenient for users searching for a solutiom to a problem that is already available in a previous lemmy thread.

The lemmy web ui already does this when typing a title (although due to a bug it doesnt do so for the link or when the suggested title from the link is used)

SubMedia makes a lot of Anarchist videos covering news around the world. This is there last video of their System Fail series as they move on to a new series. They also host their videos on their own Peertube server https://kolektiva.media/w/896293b0-3618-41ce-93ae-640627db79fc

I vaguely remember a website or community section of a website that was dedicated to sharing .config files and scripts. I thought it was actually called dotConfig but I can't seem to find it while searching anywhere

I think the main purpose of the website was around theming or “ricing” your linux setup and DE

EDIT: it's http://dotshare.it/ ! they dont have a ssl cert tho https://web.archive.org/web/20230729030641/http://dotshare.it/

Many creators mentioning they lost hundreds of their patrons suddenly and patrons confused as to why their payments are being declined. Patreon is such an old company that hasnt done anything to improve their service for years while the CEO makes youtube videos and seemingly nothing with the company. I hate how much of a monopoly they have in the space, they clearly have no vision for improving their website or app.
