Zuckerberg is just as insidious, but further under the radar. I don't know which lizardperson I like less.

We're hoping that v0.18.1 is out within the week or even tomorrow, when we wanted to upgrade.

Yes, copyright and should exist, but only for about ten years, which should be enough time to get rich off it. Afterwards you can just come up with new ideas.

Hey, looks awesome. Maybe you can get in touch with @HrBingR@beehaw.org who made this repository: https://github.com/HrBingR/Lemmy_CSS/

and @UrLogicFails@beehaw.org who created an "official" colour scheme together with me

as well as myself, you can reach me in Discord or Matrix, just send me your respective username in a Lemmy PN and I'll contact you.

I am one of the backend admins and I'm pretty sure we can make this official somehow. I will talk to the site admins (=moderators, community managers, bosses) about this. I'm sure we would like to have a few Beehaw-specific themes to select for our users.

Pinging @alyaza@beehaw.org @Gaywallet@beehaw.org @Lionir@beehaw.org just FYI about the current state of things

Same, especially with questions about gender and sexuality. I'd have preferred a selfhosted LimeSurvey, Baserow.io or similar.

Lol- i don’t need a video to know blocking porn was the downfall of tumblr.

So you're saying you watched a 40 minute video in one minute and I shouldn't have posted it because it's the only valid point the video makes?

Or did you rather just read the title of the video and assumed that its content was 40 minutes of repeating what was said in the title in long form?

We have the power over ActivityPub

Who is 'we'? And who doesn't say that there's something on top of activitypub?

Plus, if they do create cool features, why would we not also add them?

Because we don't have multiple thousands of paid developers.

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/35555

A fellow mod informed me that about it as I was laying in bed. Reddit sent a message to the mod team and after 1 hour demoded me. I didn't even had time to see it, never-mind respond to it.

Looks like we rattled reddit enough to start shooting. There goes all that fancy talk about our protest not affecting them much.

Just FYI for now. It's late here so I'll see how we proceed tomorrow.

sounds good, but please direct these suggestions not to Beehaw itself because we currently do not routinely contribute code to the software Lemmy. If you have suggestions about the software architecture, reach out to the Lemmy devs here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/

If anyone has an issue with defederating to reduce stress (and worse) for our volunteer mods, please watch the Documentary "The Cleaners" (2018) about how moderators in Manila for Facebook, YouTube, Twitter & Co. got PTSD (and worse) from moderating content. Or at least this video about the traumatic life of a Facebook moderator by The Verge.

Howdy, Beeple! We’ve got some important updates to share about the reliability of our platform. We know how crucial it is for our site to be up and running when you need it most, so we want to keep you in the loop about our uptime goals.

Let’s keep it simple: uptime means the amount of time our site is available for you to enjoy. We’re buzzing with excitement to let you know that we’re committed to achieving a monthly uptime of 90% or more. That means our hive will be accessible to you at least 27 days a month.

Now, we don’t want to get your hopes up too high, so we won’t make any wild promises. In fact, our admin team estimates an even better uptime than 90%, but let’s be realistic and not sting ourselves with overpromising. Our mid-term goal within the next weeks is to reach a promise-able uptime of 95% — like having a beehive humming smoothly!

Currently we’re not planning on expanding the server capacity any more, since we’re waiting for some specific improvements within the Lemmy code and want to scale horizontally (multiple servers) more so than vertically (bigger server).

But that’s not all, folks! Our long-term goal is to achieve an uptime of over 99%, so you can count on our site being as reliable as a well-organized colony. We’re on a mission to create a buzzing social media experience for you, one that keeps you connected without any pesky interruptions.

Please be patient as we work our wings off to improve the stability and performance of our site. Your support means the world to us, and we’re committed to making our platform as reliable as a worker bee.

Thank you for being part of our busy bee community! If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help you navigate through the hive and keep the honey flowing!

With warm buzzes, Your Beehaw Hive Administrators

it will be a mod-only community where mods post pictures of themselves in bee fursuits?

you're putting a beekeeper on payroll and they will name the bees after Beehaw users? :o
