I switched from Franz to Ferdi to Ferdium and then I noticed all it's doing is creating PWAs in profiles, which made me use Chromium with some cookie deletion and privacy add-ons and just install the applications I needed as PWAs. You can start Chromium with a separate profile and auto open all of the apps which you can't install as PWAs in tabs, and you can move the tab bar to the left side. Then you basically have Ferdium with extra steps and better efficiency.

But can it run Crysis?

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

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

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?

My opinion:

There are a lot of lessons we can learn from the downfall of tumblr for the Fediverse aswell. I am glad there are Mastodon communities which welcome explicit content creators. But some of the comments for that video suggest that they aren't able to connect to people outside of that bubble, since these people's instances might block NSFW ones.

In addition to that, blocking tags like #abuse is an awesome mental health feature which should definitely be embraced by the Fediverse and Lemmy in particular.

You mean, like Discord? There's decentralisation which works (Fediverse) and decentralisation which doesn't (gated/closed off communities like Discord).

[–] Helix@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

what's the value about? Maybe they can form multiple communities? Not everything has to be connected. It's also OK to be disconnected or spread out as a community from time to time.

I just hope that the community from Reddit doesn’t spread itself out too much :(

Why? Decentralisation is a good thing.
