Sometimes the canvas takes a bit to load
when the event goes live, it’ll be a website you can login to and place pixels
the login system sends a DM to your account with a code to verify your identity, no passwords are used
Oh hey it’s also toast’s 1 year as well 🎉
ejabberd recently announced full matrix federation at the server level, so there’s hope
I feel like it’s because of the risky nature of video content and it appearing to be hosted by the site
I run a small instance that doesn’t have open registrations and is very limited in who it follows to prevent risky videos from accidentally being rehosted (and to host content I helped make)
I would definitely reword your original post, it’s very misleading with how it’s worded now
(Eg “How I feel” -> “how individual users feel”)
If I remember correctly, apple also made it so iPad apps automatically work on the Vision Pro unless if the dev explicitly disables it, which is also a plus
Lemmy instances can enable an option to prevent non-admins from creating communities, so if it isn’t available on your instance (usually in the header area on the website) then your instance admins have disabled that option
A possible solution to moderation is allowing communities to delete a parent comment (+ the child comments) from that community w/o actually fully deleting the comment
Therefore if you view that specific post with the context of a specific community, you only see the comments that are not deleted, which have (most likely) been moderated already
If you view the source post directly, you would see all the comments for that post
With the feature request I posted on GitHub, it would work similarly to reposting/reblogging on Mastodon.
Except inside Lemmy anyone who can post in the community would (most likely) create a post linking to an existing post and it would appear that the post mentioned just got posted into that community
Moderators would ideally see who created that crosspost and have the ability to block that person from crossposting (or posting entirely) to that community w/o affecting the third-party post
If someone wouldn’t want their posts crossposted they can just block the community’s actor (account)
It would also allow for Lemmy users to crosspost posts from other Fediverse services, such as Mastodon
Eg you see a post on Mastodon that would fit great in a startrek community, you would be able to cross post that Mastodon post into that community
This would enable individual posts to gain traction and comments without having comments/replies being spread across multiple places
Edit: it would work very similarly to reposting/reblogging on mastodon
Video hosting is a very expensive process and peertube does a lot more stuff to video files compared to Lemmy/mastodon
I’m not sure if this would be feasible for development or peertube hosts but idk, it would be a neat idea though
I don’t know Rust well enough to implement it in the core of Lemmy, instead it’d be another service instances would run then do some reverse proxy magic to properly run it on their servers
but I’m planning to use it for canvas 2024, so in a couple months there should be at least a functional version published on github (or some other code platform) (i’ll post updates to this on !canvas@toast.ooo & probably my mastodon)
OpenID is a federated protocol and it would honestly be great if Fediverse projects added it to the core servers
Pixelfed also uses PHP/Laravel in the backend
The instances page at join-lemmy is completely automated
This definitely needs to get pushed to the two main devs for lemmy as they control that website
That seemed to be a major hiccup this time around, getting the word out there
my plan for next year’s is to give 30 days and 7 day notice before the event starts
make sure you’re subscribed to !canvas@toast.ooo & in the Matrix space so you don’t miss it next year
It was very difficult notifying people of the event, but I am planning to run another one next year!
Make sure you’re in the Lemmy community (!canvas@toast.ooo) and the Matrix space so you don’t miss it!
Everything was rebooting, it should work now 👍
