  • Aww it’s like a bunny wallaby

  • What sort of description did you use to get this image? Was it just one prompt or a bunch of refining?

  • That’s awesome. How much instruction do you have to give it to be close enough to what you remember?

  • They may not care so much about that since they don’t make any ad revenue from those subreddits

  • It’s a frustrating growing pain but I’m glad he’s working on a fix now rather than waiting until the instance gets overwhelmed

  • I wonder if they’ll start with the founding of Baghdad proper in the 700s or if they’ll go all the way back to Mesopotamia and Babylon. The article says it focuses of mainly the Abbasid Caliphate in the ninth century but it would be a shame not to include at least something from the cradle of civilization.

  • What a fascinating project. I’m of two minds about using the storyboard sketch style for the reconstructed content.

    On one hand, the footage is lost, and nothing anyone does will be original, so we shouldn’t try to disguise the truth and try to mimic the real footage with the reconstructed segments. Let the original pieces shine and be honest about what has been filled in.

    On the other hand, this is something where the use of deepfake technology or incredibly high quality CGI and audio recreation could be a real benefit, so the audience could be immersed in the story without being distracted by the reconstructed content.

    It goes both ways. Do you do your best to show the original content and fill in with just enough to keep the story together, or do you try to truly recreate the lost content even though it will never be exactly what they originally created? Do you supplement or replace?

    Reddit is gatekeeping NSFW content on mobile, trying to force their app

  • Two likely possibilities with further detail about each below:

    1. The link you clicked took you to the community on the host instance rather than the copy on your local instance, or

    2. The community is on an instance that’s defederated with your home instance.

    When you view and interact with communities and content hosted on another server, you’re technically interacting with a copy of that community/content that’s hosted on your home server and kept in sync with the main copy. So if I want to subscribe to /c/technology hosted on lemmy.world even though my home instance is sh.itjust.works, I need to visit the copy on shitjustworks at sh.itjust.works/c/technology@lemmy.world

    If I went to lemmy.world/c/technology, I couldn’t interact because I don’t have an account on the lemmy.world site.

    As I said above, communities and content are copied between Lemmy instances and kept in sync across the copies. But sometimes an instance will ‘defederate’ with another, ie cutting the direct connection between them that lets them copy and sync content. In that case, there’s no local copy for me to subscribe to or interact with.

    The incorrect link is far more likely to be the issue than defederation, so whenever you run into that issue check the link and make sure it’s the copy on your instance.

  • I tried creating an account on lemmy.world at first and could never get it to load correctly. Try joining another instance - lemmy.world is probably overloaded.

    Edit: use lemmyverse.net to look through the available instances, their rules, and their uptime stats.

  • Looks like a pretty standard Friday night ticket for NY or Chicago

  • I find the Hot view algorithm kind of glitchy - it always seems to jump to 2-3 year old posts after the first few. I prefer the Top views from the past day or week and the New view. You should be able to set your default view in your settings.

    And like salarua said, you can switch between your subscribed communities, local communities (everything on your home instance), and all communities across all instances.

  • You’re not the only one! That’s partly why I made that post- on Reddit I would make 1-2 posts a year and only got real traction with 1 or 2 ever. I was always too late for my comments to matter and I usually just browsed and voted.

    Here, the community is smaller so each post and comment matters more, and for the most part I’ve found it a lot more welcoming. I realized that engaging more proactively was a lot more fun than on Reddit, and I thought that others would probably be thinking the same way so maybe this post would help break down that passive habit so many of us have from Reddit.

  • There’s usually no need to join multiple servers. The only really reason would be if the communities you want to interact with are in instances that aren’t very well federated (ie connected to lots of other instances). Then you may want accounts on the more isolated instances to access that content and an account on a more mainstream instance to give you access to the rest of Lemmy’s content.

    Managing multiple accounts can be tricky, but I’ve heard some of the apps are good at aggregating the content across multiple accounts. I only have one Lemmy account though so I don’t have firsthand experience.

  • I’m not sure… what’s Connect?

  • Check out lemmyverse.net - it’s a great tool to browse the communities and instances out there

  • If you do the “Install App” process it actually feels like a standalone app. Not sure how it works without the App Store.

  • Nice! Hopefully soon one of them can merge my Lemmy, Kbin and Mastodon accounts into a single app. Kbin just needs to release some APIs.

  • Oh that looks so much better than browse.feddit.de. More information and better design. Thanks for the suggestion!

  • Kbin has it, so users who really want it can get their fix there while still interacting with the rest of us.
