won’t care? yeah probably. aren’t intelligent enough? that’s an insane generalization, knowledgeable about technology ≠ smart

I encounter VPN blocks everywhere frequently. I usually just reroll my selected server until the block goes away

Hey it’s technically possible! Most lemmy instances do not proxy images, so you can embed a sneaky tracking pixel in your post, and collect every time the image is loaded, and also get demographics for it! /neg

The majority of the communities I visit on reddit have no real equivalent on Lemmy. The only things in Lemmy are politics, open source, linux, android, anti ai, immediate downvote of the majority of news, etc.

Lemmy feels more like an individual community rather than a real platform, like lobste.rs with more emphasis on politics.

The original link ap_id corresponds to the author’s instance.

User@feddit.org posts to community@lemmy.ml. The path the post will take is this:

User -> Author’s instance -> Community’s instance -> Notified to all other instances subscribed, to download from author’s instance.

As for your other point, there is no good universal Lemmy linking thing for posts. communities and users have names that work on any instance, but there’s no similar unique identifier for posts.

The thing with this is that many people want to switch their setting to be non default, and it’s impossible to have both user configurable and nice css at the same time. One has to go.

Edit: Oops, just realized I replied to a 2 month old comment. My bad

FYI, the Photon version you’re running is over a year out of date.

I have found the one of the 12 fellow gen z on this site

Idk man. same reason why this generations humor is “6 7”, aura, etc

All ~14M users quit the fediverse simultaneously on that one day and changed their mind a day later

In gen z, I see it mostly used as an ironic “this is sad”. It’s like how 😭 is used as a laughing emoji.

example:

“this guy really thinks that was tuff (cool) 🥀”

HTTPS can in fact be cached, and most modern browsers will do so unless given a header or something to tell it not to.

My residential IP (an inconspicuous Comcast network) gets blocked by this garbage on so many websites. I don’t know why VPNs are less suspicious to sites than my random california ip

Not to advertise, but you could try Photon. It’s what Tesseract was forked from wayyy back as me and the tesseract dev’s philosophies split.

It’s more opinionated, and features are carefully organized compared to Tesseract where plenty of shortcuts and links are given (which isn’t bad at all, just targets different preferences).

You can access Photon at https://phtn.app/ to use any instance, or selfhost.

Additionally, some instances I’d recommend that use photon are

• lemdro.id (which uses it as their primary!)
• p.lemmy.world
• photon.slrpnk.net

I’m curious why your instance, sh.itjust.works, hosts Tesseract but not Photon. They have diverged so much they cannot be considered similar.
