  • Yep.

    it doesn't save my settings or my favorites and multi-communities.

    It should save/persist the favorites to your browser's local storage. If you're using a browser that clears site data on close or something, then they'll reset. But it also wouldn't persist your profile and you'd have to log in every time, so....🤔 It doesn't, however, save any settings beyond your device. I'm working on a way to securely save those to whatever Tesseract server you use but don't have it implemented yet.

    This version (1.4.42) also changes where and how the favorites, community groups, and filters are stored in addition to not storing useless data like the community sidebar info, etc. They're also no longer stored inside your profile in a single local storage object. Since these save to the browser's local storage, there's a hard 5 MB limit per object (everything gets written to a JSON string), so maybe your profile exceeded that somehow? If so, there should be browser console logs to that effect. Regardless, this version splits those all up into separate storage objects to address that problem.

    Not sure what you mean by multi-communities, though. There was a feature to create custom feeds (which is kind-of similar to multi-community) but I took that out a long time ago because API changes in 0.19.3+ made it untenable. I think that was removed in 1.4.40 or thereabouts, so if you're on a version older than that, then maybe that feature is still present. That feature was pretty broken for a long time which is why I finally removed it and put it out of its misery.

  • To be, like, super and needlessly pedantic, lol, Linus looks like her since she's older.

  • No, she's much wittier than I am. Though I did try to write it in her style.

  • I had a "2-3 weeks" ETA about 2 months ago for the initial beta release. Looks like that ship sailed. In the last few days I'm kind of getting back into the swing of development but I'm still behind and can't devote as much time to it as I'd like.

    I think the last thing that's preventing a beta release is the settings importer is unfinished (had to be re-written). Once that's done, I can at least get the beta out for use. There's a few other cosmetic things I need to fix as well but it's still usable.

  • I have room in the panel now, that's not the problem. Was just thinking it would be more economical to run one big circuit from the basement up to the kitchen and do the breakout there versus running 4-6 new individual circuits all that way.

    Upgrading to a 200A panel is on the horizon though not right at this moment.

  • Unfortunately, time and money are factors. Not that I want to cheap out, I just thought maybe a sub panel might be more economical.

    They wouldn't know to check the kitchen has its own sub panel.

    I mean, when there's only a 40 amp breaker labeled "Kitchen S/P" I think they'd figure it out.

  • The kitchen would be the only room with a subpanel.

    As stated in the post, the oven is already on a dedicated 30A circuit, and I'm not going to mess with that. There's an empty void near the oven, though, and my thought was to run another 30 amp circuit up beside that to feed the subpanel and place it in that "void". Decorating isn't a concern for the void as there's not much that can really go there anyway.

    Definitely want to future proof it, yeah. I'm not married to 30 amp delivery to it, just used that as a reference point.

    NEC requires 2 different 20 amp circuits for counter top use, 15 amps is not allowed,

    That I didn't know (or rather, haven't read yet). Current ones are on 15 amp circuits, so I was going by that (not that previous owners seemed too concerned with "code" LOL).

  • Stove's already on a dedicated breaker.

    This is the US and we only have split-phase (two 'hot' legs at 120v on each end of a center-tap transformer)

  • Home Improvement @lemmy.world

    Electricians of Lemmy: Planning a kitchen re-wire. Sub-panel or direct run?

  • Tesseract (t.lemmy.world) both badges and lets you filter new accounts. You can configure the number of a days an account is considered "new" from 1 to 30 days. Anything that's filtered will be shown as a stub/collapsed item in the feed.

    In the upcoming release (delayed due to personal issues but in progress), you can completely hide content from new accounts (versus just collapsing it) among other filters.

    Additionally, (in the upcoming release) it will automatically hide content from users less than a week old who have deleted their accounts. This feature is a direct response to this "hit it and quit it" nonsense from the accounts you're describing.

  • Tesseract used to have that same bug. To fix it, I now poll /api/v3/federated_instances at startup and save those to a lookup variable. Before localizing a community, user, post, or comment link, it checks to see if the domain is to a known federated instance by looking for it in the list of federated instances.

    There may be other ways to solve that problem, but that was what I went with. Bonus is it doesn't require any extra network calls beyond the one to fetch the list of federated instances at startup.

  • Instance blocking is just blocking all communities on that instance, unfortunately.

    Like Blaze said, you can try Piefed (LW also operates a Piefed instance) or you can use an alternate UI for Lemmy that does hide users from blocked instances. Not sure which do except Tesseract (https://t.lemmy.world/) since I wanted to be able to do the same thing.

    The setting for that is under Settings -> Filtering -> Hide Users From Blocked Instances

  • ....yeah. I added a filter in Tesseract to automatically hide "drive-by" posts for accounts that are less than a week old who self-delete themselves. Can't stand that.

  • Not that that isn't good advice to make mods' lives easier in general, but for the ban evader I think you're talking about, it's usually pretty apparent if you look at the profile of the user being reported:

    1. Minutes old, 10+ posts and no comments or maybe 1 boilerplate-looking one.
    2. Usually cycles through c/Politics, c/News, c/Health, c/UK, c/Ohio, c/Television and a few others
    3. Here lately, spams out 10+ posts rapid-fire and then deletes the account (not all UIs indicate a user is deleted, but that info is often helpful).

    Granted, I'm really good at pattern matching. It's like my one neurodivergent superpower lol.

  • Very nice!

  • Unfortunately, there's many many reasons that could be the case. I'm just putting this out there since it's easy to check for and mitigate against.

  • No, that's just /api/v3/user which returns both posts and comments.

  • Good idea with the f2b integration.

    I thought about that before just blocking unscoped requests to that endpoint in Nginx.

  • That was my thought, but also wasn't sure since there might be a use-case I'm unfamiliar with. I vaguely recall seeing a feature request for Photon a while back to be able to just browse comments, so I assume that would be how it worked.

    But yeah as it is now, it can be abused.
