Thanks for fixing the bug. However, I found it genuinely useful for the page to not load in full… to stop doom scrolling!

Do you think pagination can be introduced? As an option or setting? Or is this something to address to jerboa that I’m using?

I wrote to Ben of Bubbles.town and he replied very kindly that until Lemmy sets up an Oauth flow, he can’t implement a login through Lemmy. Here is his response:

thanks for your kind mail and your question about Lemmy auth.

Lemmy login isn’t on the roadmap, and I don’t expect that to change. Bubbles signs you in with the OAuth flow that Mastodon introduced: your server shows you a consent page, and Bubbles only receives a token that confirms who you are. Mastodon, Pixelfed, GoToSocial and a few others offer that flow, Lemmy doesn’t. A Lemmy app logs in with your username and password, and I don’t want Bubbles to ever ask for or handle your password.

The workaround Grant mentioned (sending a code by direct message) runs into the problem he described. Most Lemmy servers can’t receive the kind of direct message that other Fediverse software sends, so the code would never reach you.

Hi @grant@toast.ooo and @threelonmusketeers and thanks for answering. I’m not familiar with the workings of authentication and how it relates to the different types of instances. I kinda thought that all fediverse instances had somehow settled/agreed on a compatible standard but it seems my understanding is too shallow 😑.

I just saw from their FAQ that they only support a specific type of instance:

Which platforms are supported?

Anything with Mastodon-compatible OAuth: Mastodon, Pixelfed, GoToSocial, Pleroma, Akkoma, Misskey, Sharkey, Hometown.

Bluesky, Lemmy, and Threads are not supported.

Why the downvotes? Because AI = bad?

I think the report tries to show that opensource is preferable to closed AI, as regards performance, monetary cost, and access among others.

It doesn’t mention environmental concerns, sadly. But nonetheless, at least from my understanding, good opensource models can be run by people or institutions that choose to power them responsibly, not to mention the fact that more eyes on the models mean they can be optimized for resource use faster perhaps than closed models which are incentivised to increase raw performance.

In my view, any efforts that keep AI open at all levels should be worthy of support, no?

I hope so… I’ll be in France over the winter, I sure hope I can snap one up in the time I’m there!

Interested as well. I hope something shows up !
