Fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Is Bluesky about to implode, and if it does - would this mean refugees coming here in any numbers?English
1·5 days agoI don’t doubt some people have run into issues with Mastodon, like not being able to follow accounts because of defed, but I doubt it’s as prevalent as the criticism makes it out to be. It’s also a wild as the same is literally true of Bluesky, like there are Bluesky accounts you have to jump to Blacksky to view because the CEO of Bluesky got her feeling hurt because she didn’t like being criticised for hosting transphobes who break the site’s own rules.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•PieFed 1.3 is releasedEnglish
4·5 days agoObviously it’d only be a subset of HTML. No website that uses user-submitted HTML (Tumblr, AO3, Royal Road, etc) actually allows the full suite of tags.

7·7 days agoCool!
Image markdown style formatting to allow more advanced control of how images are rendered. e.g. 
You might as just let users write the
<img>tags directly at this point, at least then you won’t add noise to third party apps’ accessibility stacks.(I honestly wouldn’t be opposed to letting users write HTML directly, it was one of Tumblr’s best features imo)

UK Politics@feddit.uk•Tactical voting set to thwart Farage's election hopes, poll showsEnglish
1·8 days agoFair enough, the Green party certainly has a strong conservationism-above-all-else element that like you describe and has been very influential in the party, with the other side being a progressive socdem/demsoc element. It’ll be interesting to see how this changes now the Greens have nearly tripled their members, most of whom are on the demsoc side of the party. Hell, I’m one of them and I certainly can’t be described as a NIMBY.

6·9 days agobut who also want their capital assets - primarily their house value - protected.
But the Green party’s primary support is from young people in urban areas, generally not people with assets. While the party certainly has had a Tory element in its electorate who matches what you say, it’s pretty reductive to say they’re the parties primary supports. There’s a reason the only MP the Greens had for over a decade was Brighton Pavilion.

6·9 days agoYou’d think given how many voters they’re losing to the Greens, they’d make more noise about the (pretty good, bar the carbon capture stuff) new carbon budget plan. But alas, this government seemingly can’t do comms.

24·9 days agoThis is actually pretty good user retention. Most platforms bleed way more users after a surge in sign ups (eg Mastodon, Pixelfed, Threads, Bluesky).

Privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com•California passes law requiring age verification checks for all operating systems | Governor Newsom signs bills to further strengthen California’s leadership in protecting children onlineEnglish
9·14 days agoThis seems way less insane than the ‘let’s model online age verification on pubs’ laws we’ve seen in places like the UK and France.

Ask UK@feddit.uk•Why are British people, who are usually against racial slurs, okay with slurs that are class-based, such as "chav"?English
91·14 days agoChav isn’t really a slur, it’s derogatory sure but not a slur. Also, plenty of British people throw around racial slurs, it just sounds like you know mostly nice people.
A ‘mode’ in emacs is a set of bindings which associate specific keys with specific functions.
Not quite, a mode is basically a lisp function defined with a different macro that integrates it into the various systems (like showing up in the modeline when active). It can do basically anything, including setting keybinds.
‘modes’ can be stacked on top of each other, with higher modes being able to intercept key presses before they reach lower modes, and changes / manipulate lower modes (I think?)
No, a keybind can only run one function and what that function is is whatever last defined a binding for that key. Like, if one mode defines a key to be something and you activate another that also binds that key, the latter takes over.
Emacs does have something like you describe, where functions can be ‘advised’.

3·25 days agoI don’t see why it’d have to be limited to Piefed instances and we can do certain heuristics to test if an instance is good for a user’s location (Piefed’s instance chooser does this).

5·25 days agoI’ll defer to you given I don’t do outreach while you do. Honestly an ideal would just be a simple website that chooses a random instance from a list of known good instances and takes them through the sign up process.
















There are times where I’ll see someone mention something is against the dbzero site rules, so I’ll spend like 10 minutes trying to find and always come up blank. Like apparently it’s a site rule to tag gen AI content
[GenAI], but I couldn’t tell you where that’s written down.
