Though Lemmy has funding for full-time developers.
barely, edited it to say low funding
I hope the plugin system will attract more contributors, especially since it supports a variety of languages

It's very hard for people to accept that there are other things that may need to be worked on before their requested fix/feature. Every big project has a huge backlog of issues/feature requests, you can't do them all in 1 day or even 1 year. Especially with low funding lol.
then I wonder what the cutoff is for "low power charger" because I don't think I've ever seen that, it could probably stand to be increased a bit
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
below 5W, then the charger is considered “slow,” and the message “charging slowly” is shown on the lock screen. If the power is above 7.5W, then it’s considered “fast,” and the “charging rapidly” message is shown instead. If the power is between 5 and 7.5W, then the charger is seen as “normal,” and the lock screen simply says the phone is “charging.”
Seems to be a purely cosmetic change. I was wondering if the OS has any different behavior when charging quickly (like being more aggressive with running background processes, and running updates/backups) but the article didn't say anything about that.
If my phone was only charging at 5 or 6W I'd want to know the charger is garage. That might not even be enough to use the phone without losing battery. What they really need is to rename "slow" to "very slow", and then 5W to 7.5W could be considered the new "slow". The intent being that "very slow" is problematically slow (maybe the OS scheduler could pretend the phone is not charging). And "slow" charging would just be for mild inconvenience.
If only the phone could just tell me the actual number of watts it's charging at lol. Even if it's rounded and averaged.
The Summit app allows that
something that didn't get mentioned but I think is nice, the Chat view has been fixed!

I believe it was fixed here https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2480
it even allows sorting in either direction, you can do Chat view with New or Old sort!
I think it's just a comparison because during the Reddit Exodus people often suggested Discuit instead of Lemmy because ActivityPub is "too complicated". So I guess this is a good demonstration that federation really is our best hope at replacing the big billionaire social media platforms.
As another point of reference vs Discuit's 6,787 registered users, Lemmy has 1,904,195 registered users. Kbin has 66,175, and Mbin has 5,453 registered users.
yea it's just by URL, I think currently (v0.19.4) there's a bug where it doesn't count bot posts
Honestly after reading the headline I expected the average difference to be 1-3%, 7% is kind of amazing lol
It is federated yeah, I see Lemmy posts/users/communities
