Am I missing something or is there no share button on posts?

I really do love the image handling in Mlem (swipe to close, tap to zoom in/out); it has been something that Memmy has been struggling with a lot.

I’m confused - they confirmed 6 deaths, but did not know how or where they occurred…. So are the deaths even related to the fire?

The operation in Guarujá was criticised by Brazil’s Justice Minister Flavio Dino, who said the police’s reaction was not proportional to the crime committed.

I am curious, what would have been a proportional respond to a police officer being killed then? Let them get away without anything?

As tragic as any life loss is, I am not sure what other outcome could be expected from going after traffickers that are killing officers

There goes the argument of non technical users falling for scams. The tables have turned!

I do wonder if this would be negated by containered applications

Requiring accounts with X days or X karma lead to subs where people would literally post just to get upvotes and the creation of bot accounts.

One of the things I’ve enjoyed about lemmy; posts/comments feel far more engaging and don’t get drowned in thousands of comments that often don’t contribute much if anything.

Sounds like you’re really missing the threads experience; why aren’t you there and posting 250 characters at a time?

It would not be that simple, considering they’d be running multiple instances and require more effort to aggregate, deduplicate, and stage that data - vs just having a single clean database for it

It does actually matter, because that is what is happening.

Head over to the gaming@beehaw.org link that you shared as an example and notice that the posts are 3+ days old and all the recent posts are from instances other than beehaw; this clearly shows that Lemmy.world has not been receiving any data from beehaw for some time already.

As for hurting Lemmy and driving people to threads, is a baseless argument; anyone wanting an experience that Threads offers is not coming to Lemmy; they would either already be there or would be coming from Twitter/Mastadon. Lemmy at its core is very far from what Threads/Twitter/Mastadon try to be.

So many folks on here are jumping on and claiming that decentralization is a one way or that people don’t know anything, but have failed to read the specifications themselves.

Servers SHOULD NOT deliver Block Activities to their object.

https://docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/activitypub/

ActivityPub defines the Block activity for client-to-server (C2S) use-cases, but not for server-to-server (S2S) – it recommends that servers SHOULD NOT deliver Block activities to their object.

So as I mentioned before, Lemmy.world should be blocking those servers at the instance level, preventing it from sharing any data to any identified Facebook instances.

Sure this doesn’t stop Facebook from spinning up other instances, but that will improve a lot more effort on their side and will quickly be identified and blocked by the communities, just like all their urls for ads, api, etc. have been for years.

Anyone can do anything; the point is handing it over automatically and neatly into a database and ready for use.

Because we, the users of Lemmy.world, do not want our data handed over to Facebook

First rule of email: don’t use comic sans font.

Hope they introduce a better search function, that can actually jump to the point of conversation instead of giving useless snippets from it.
