I just don't think bash is good for maintaining the code, debugging, growing the code over time, adding automated tests, or exception handling
Unpopular opinion: IDK why people want perfect interop so much, I have a Mastodon account and a Lemmy account, big deal. We've got bigger fish to fry than this. The formats are different enough that you're better off having separate accounts for microblogging and threadiverse.
Interop for similar platforms is a great feature, but for dissimilar platforms I don't think it's actually necessary just a novelty. Also I think people try to push this on new users as some big, useful, important feature, but I think it only confuses the new users.
Also I noticed most of the time when people complain about ActivityPub interop issues, it almost always ends up being Mastodon's fault lol. Probably because they were early to the party and didn't have to worry about interop and standards much back then. At least I hope it isn't malicious lol.
there was a discussion about this same post before, I'll just copy paste my comment...
That post complains about not being able to view/manage images hosted by your instance, but v0.19.4 already fixed that last week? So that kinda disproves them saying the Lemmy developers didn’t want it to be possible. Also the post complains about the amount of storage used by caching images but that was also fixed/improved in v0.19.4
at this point I think we might need comments more than posts, there's lots of posts already but most of them are lacking comments
This reminds me of the designer of Deus Ex saying that the conspiracies are too real now lol

"I’m not sure I’d make Deus Ex today. The conspiracy theories we wrote about are now part of the real world. I don’t want to support that.”

Fucking Apple lol, just let people play video files, this should be basic minimum functionality
I'm surprised there was no issue filed for this already, maybe I just failed to find it, but I made a new issue
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4412
if anyone wants to give it a thumbs up reaction then the devs will know to prioritize it, and if you have any ideas you could leave a comment there
Edit: that was somewhat a duplicate of this issue
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2951
Give that one a thumbs up
They just needed to offer lots of storage so they could kill off Dropbox, now that it's mostly dead for consumers, it's time for Google to make money with their monopoly. Even though storage prices have gone way down.
scaled sort is coming in v0.19.0 https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3907
curious if we'll see commits from governments into the Mastodon repo lol
given how many ‘Twitter alternative’ services like Threads and Bluesky are cropping up
I wish they would mention Mastodon lol

So basically 720p doesn't perform much better than 4k, meaning it's a horrible CPU bottleneck
